Quoting: KlaasSo… was this about his infamous tweet where he compared installing Linux because Windows was garbage to moving to Canada or was it completely random?

Apparently moving to Canada equals Linux support for him.

QuotePlayers who are not accessing Destiny 2 through Windows and attempt to bypass the SteamOS/Proton incompatibility will be met with a game ban

Must be so "smart" to ban potentially paying users. Morons.

And Tim Sweeney can move to Canada and get lost.

Not using it, but I see a ton of reports that it's bugged in the game.

I suppose they'll follow up with bug fixes soon enough.

That's cool and a good move for Microsoft.

How will Wine handle it, will they pull in changes from .NET's fork back into Mono?

Quoting: EhvisMinimal performance gain over the previous series.

Seems to be comparable to improvements from Zen 3 to Zen 4. Not sure that's called minimal. I'm more interested in how well eco mode will perform.

Quoting: EhvisStill can't seem to compete with the X3Ds though, so it'll be interesting to see what that could do for this series.

It would be interesting if high end models will have full core coverage with extra cache in X3D and will avoid the asymmetrical set up.

Quoting: Jarmerand these cpus are very underwhelming, so very easy to pass on.

How are they underwhelming? From what I've read, it's a major improvement over Zen 4.

I might upgrade and then try to sell current CPU. That would recover some of the costs. Though I'd also wait until X3D versions will appear. If they'll have one with extra cache for all cores that would be something new to consider.
