"DXGI_ERROR_DEVICE_REMOVED" your graphics card got removed or disconnected long enough for the game to die.
Don't know why. You can run the game in fullscreen-windowed mode, and you won't have issues with tabbing out.

The crash there is related to the CPU you are using, not the operating system. It is not supporting a specific instruction.
That code was removed on profiling branch (v6 and later), so it should run if you switch to it.

This was interesting.
We had a big issue with container entities being "leaked" and spamming server logs. So we fixed that.
Turns out, the inventory system requires entities to leak.

It was not removed. Dupe bugs should be private tickets, so people cannot look here for basically a guide on how to dupe.
Your ticket was not private, so it was made private manually, but a mistake was made and you were removed access to. I'll fix that.

dedmen changed the status of T175612: Turning off shadows doesn't disable shadow calculations from Assigned to Feedback.

When shadows are to be drawn. The game needs to render objects that are not inside field of view, because objects outside of it, might throw shadows into the visible area.
So what it did on max shadow view distance, was render all objects in 3km radius, even if they are not visible to player. Because they might show shadows. That code forgot to check if shadows are even enabled.
