The Rust Lang Ecosystem — Trans Megathread for the week of December 16, 2024, to December 22, 2024

A language empowering everyone to build reliable and efficient software.

Rust by itself is a great language, but what really makes it shine are its many great crates. The ecosystem around rust is one of the best there is, and its documentation is practically unrivalled. So lets look at some of those crates!

actix-web

Actix-web is an amazing web server framework for rust. It's modular, easy to use, intuitive and fast. It's also what lemmy is built on! So when you use this very site, you are using something build with actix!

Bevy

Bevy is a code first game engine for rust, based on the ECS paradigm. It's incredibly refreshing and different from most other engines. It is also unbelievably modular, in fact, just about every part of the engine cam be removed or added as you please! If you are every looking for something simple to play around, try bevy!

Tokio

The backbone of most asynchronous rust. It provides everything needed to build reliable, fast web applications!

Serde

Serde is the go-to library for serialization and deserialisation in rust. Its derive macros make it a breeze to use, and there are countless crates supporting various formats with Serde!

SQLx

SQLx is an amazingly simple sql handling crate. It is both feature rich and yet simple, and just a joy to use!

Reqwest

A neat little crate for sending http(s) requests! It's also used in Lemmy, and just about anywhere else where someone needs to do get some thing from an http(s) endpoint!

And this is far from all! Rust is a lovely language, with an even more amazing ecosystem!

Have an amazing week, everyone!

continuing marvel rivals talk from last mega:)

@genderbitch@hexbear.net for sure i expect aggressive monetisation. i'm not sure if it's clear yet whether heroes will cost money... that would really suck, i can live with skins etc. yeah the chars are fun so far! i'm really enjoying jeff the shark and venom. can't say i know anything about moon knight lol this is the first time i've engaged with anything marvel in a long time. the performance def is an issue, kinda ridiculous to make a game like this in UE5 lol... on everything low except textures + the engine.ini config fixes i can get around 100fps in-game, it's pretty map-dependent though so there definitely is performance issues going on. i've got a 1080ti, seems like anything older than that would really struggle. OW2 runs much better.

@Ceres@hexbear.net yeah, it's more or less scratching the OW1 itch for me at the moment, it's pretty well put together arena shooter. we'll see how long the novelty lasts, whether it's well supported or they start charging for heroes i guess. i'm really enjoying jeff the shark and venom, haven't touched many other chars yet. mantis looks cool, all the supports do tbh i like how independent they are, you can totally 1v1 a dps if you're good on most of them it seems.
- Ditto on not engaging with Marvel stuff in a while. I know a decent amount, largely from games and shows, but I'm mostly a DC bitch. Though there's a few series I'm fond of, e.g. Moon Knight & X-Men, so it's cool to see MK and Magik in game. Can't say I've tried Jeff the Shark, he's an annoying little fucker to play against though.
  
  Ooh, I didn't realize there were ini tweaks out there already. I'll have to go try and check them out. I've got a 4060 laptop which is theoretically not too bad, but still struggles to run anything new.
  
  jeff is cracked they're def gonna nerf his ult lol. here's the ini tweaks i'm using if you're interested, improved my fps by 40 or so: https://pastebin.com/Vxsq03pW
  
  copy this into a notepad name it engine.ini put it in C:\Users\yourname\AppData\Local\Marvel\Saved\Config\Windows, set read only. Config disables lots of useless stuff, the game becomes much clearer, improves FPS, removes stutters and freezes
  
  i'm playing on linux too so pretty happy it's playable at all with the state of anti-cheat out there...
  
  Thanks for this. The game runs so poorly for how average it looks.
  
  ooh huge thanks. So far Ive set just the 'reflections' ini to 0 based on a recommendation but ill take every fps tweak there is, cause running the game on my rx 580 is a bit rough haha
