politics @lemmy.world•Democrats seize House control from Republicans
20·15 hours agoYou can predict an overall result of an election, without calling every single seat, based on statistics.
In Australia, this regularly happens where e.g. only a third of seats have been called, but the margins and swings are so great that it’s clear who has won, just not the exact result.
Now greater than 95% chance Democrats take both the House and Senate, according to the NYT tracker.

4·15 hours agoIt’s 60-40 now. It’s still a comfortable win, but you have to take into account Republicans generally not voting early.

2·2 days agoEdit: Realizing this might not be gaming related but steam frame related. If there’s a better community for this sort of content would you please let me know?
There’s a desktop Linux version as well, so it could also go on one of the general Linux communities.

1·2 days agoKinda mad Valve shipped the frame without a WebXR capable browser.
Not much they could do since Firefox doesn’t support it either. They’ve been working with the dev of the WebXR Chromium fork at least, but obviously, that wasn’t ready for launch.

Linux Gaming@lemmy.world•The new Epic Games launcher is better than the old one, but only because the bar was in hell.English
21·21 days agoI like the little GOG in the corner. Not really competing with Steam so much, but not actively destroying itself either (although I’d like to see an official Linux client).




On the plus side, they have little to no power because the margin was so great.
