And I was afraid I started seeing things.

For a second I thought that was Epstein on the bed:

I was joking. Qt has its place and can be useful. But I believe the days of non-web based, rich clients is over. Because Qt is not really “platform independent” anymore. When Qt was invented, only GNU/Linux, OSX and Windows existed. Now we have mobile phones, tablets, ultrabooks/chromebooks, much more powerful browsers, smart watches. That’s why Qt is not something I would prefer, as I need my apps to run literally everywhere
I was mistaken; you are right!
Oh my, I just had to puke a little bit.
Yes, this is in fact true. However, after Portal 2, they kept on working on the engine for CS:GO, Alyx and CS2. That’s why those engines are a bit more modern and add new visual effects and also a lot of new capabilities. This mod uses a heavily modified engine of CS:GO for Portal 2, called “Strata Source”. Unfortunately, VALVe does not license Source 2 engine to third parties, as it seems, or else the would probably switch to this engine.
Edit: I was spreading inaccurate information and fixed this now. Thanks for pointing it out, @mschae@discuss.mschae23.de
How ironic…
I believe they just took Portal 2, put a newer engine under the hood and added a bunch of tools so that people can make mods way easier. One nice side effect is, that it now looks a bit better if you just want to play the campaign.
Unless a Bibi or Donnie comes by and drops some bombs. Then thy usually don’t last that long.
I believe exoscale is not Swiss owned anymore. An alternative would be Infomaniak.
I get that it sucks. Are there any alternatives, where I have one codebase for all platforms?
Have you tried some WD-40?
