It's good that it does this but it really does suck that for Windows Valve is unable to provide you this prior to launching the game like they do on Linux.
en.gamegpu.com/news/igry/dazโ€ฆ Our initial hardware performance testing of Phantom Blade Zero revealed a mandatory shader compilation routine taking 15 minutes on the powerful AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D processor. During this launch procedure, all available computing cores and threads remained at maximum 100% utilization while operating at a high core frequency of 5.07 GHz. The game engine heavily utilizes parallel multithreaded computing, giving high core count processors a clear speed advantage during initial caching. Owners of less capable and older personal computers should expect significantly longer waiting times before the game actually starts rendering scenes. #PhantomBladeZero #Ryzen #AMD #PCGaming #SGAME #Hardware #Shaders

The NYT is so desperate to find an October surprise they bury the lede: 1) The staffer retracted her statement. 2) The staffer was a fired disgruntled employee. 3) They stuff this line in the article: "Ballot-stacking tactics are common in politics and generally considered legal โ€” and have been employed by both parties in Alaska."

Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed reacted on Wednesday to news that the fiancรฉ of Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) intends to vote for the GOP Senate candidate Mike Rogers, telling CBS News' @aaronlarnavarro "there are always going to be some folks who have different opinions, and they're welcome to that." "If folks see another issue that is more important to them and decide that their disagreement with me on that is bigger than their disagreement with me on all these other things, that is their choice," he said.

This is a reminder that REPUBLICANS almost made Haley Stevens the nominee instead of Abdul. If you look at the % of ballot abandonments in the Michigan primary from Senate to State Senate votes, the counties with the higher amount of voters who didn't vote in the State Senate race were where Stevens performed better. That is a main indicator of Republican voters crossing over in the open primary to vote against Abdul, which is why the election was much closer than the blowout polls indicated prior to the primary. If you combine Republican crossover voting with the $33,000,000 in AIPAC spending to boost Stevens, it's clear that Stevens has never had a organic support among Democrats or Independents and would have gotten crushed if it were a closed primary without dark money. She is clearly meant to be a spoiler against Abdul and the left.

abdul el sayed and every muslim person around him has been called a radical islamic jihadist terrorist every single day by the entire political spectrum since he won the primary and i havenโ€™t seen a single think piece or major media interview of an arab voter abt how this makes them feel. arab and muslim voters combined make up almost 4% of the electorate. jewish voters make up 1.4% & many of those jewish voters arenโ€™t zionists or will let israel get in the way of preserving american democracy. so weโ€™ve heard endlessly from a tiny group of potential spoiler voters who arenโ€™t getting their way on a deeply unpopular issue- why?
If you're trying to understand why so many Michigan Jewish Democrats are defecting, I wrote in August about it. It's not, per se, about foreign policy. theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0โ€ฆ

Once the midterms are over, we need to have a serious convo about all the DINOs and wreckers in the Democratic Party โ€” particularly in Michigan โ€” who actively prefer fascists to progressives who criticize Israel. We need to boot all of these people out of the party.

Iโ€™m sure all the definitely-good-faith people who blame Mamdani for every controversial thing Rama does will surely call out Stevens for her husband-to-be voting to ensure Trump gets to appoint multiple Supreme Court justices and destroying everything she has fought for her entire career in his final two years in office.

It's so funny that a lot of the Never Trumper media figures are more committed to the Democratic Party than people like Stevens who are clearly preparing to move to the GOP purely because of Israel.
The butthurt handling of this primary defeat by Haley Stevens and now her fiance after they had tens of millions in outside money spent on her behalf is appalling. The next SecDef or a Trump SCOTUS judge is on the line here! Totally pathetic & reveals that the loss was deserved

It's infuriating that this wasn't the normalized approach for like 5-10 yrs. Just forced to watch the press/pundits pretend to take incoherent "policies" seriously, even auto-paraphrasing Trump remarks as if we dont already know he's clueless and winging it. ENOUGH. FINALLY.
Abdul El-Sayed: โ€œWe are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a foolโ€
