When you buy something from a big corporation, unless you’re tipping (and frequently even if you are tipping) usually $0 goes to the workers. It all goes to the company.

If I’m reading the merge correctly, the Wayland bugs aren’t fixed, PCSX2 just added enough workarounds to consider things working.

That just incentives devs to just push out whatever mess they currently have and say the game is released, and they’d do it unless Valve wanted to start moderating game again. At least right now the abandoned games are still labelled early access.

Every time I hear about muskrat these days I can’t help but think of Chang. I wonder when the amnesia arc is going to start.

Steam is a massive worldwide market, and the Steam Deck isn’t offered everywhere. Chinese users for example have to import it, so not many are used there.

It’s EAC, which is kernel level on Windows but not on Linux. I guess they wanted to go full kernel-level anti-cheat.

Transporting large quantities of electricity isn’t easy, you have to have large enough interconnects to handle the energy you’re moving around.

Yeah this is a big part why I’m very skeptical of Signal. It feels a lot like Ubuntu’s snap store, it’s technically open but you can’t really interact with the main corporate controlled ecosystem.

From what I understand there was also a bug involved that caused build failures without the sdk.

Did you read the article? It’s talking primarily about how this could be really good for consumers.

Ah, gotcha. Sorry about the confusion.

OpenRCT2 ditched assembly tho. They wrote it entirely in C++.

On a theoretical level, food calories represent a specific amount of energy that can be extracted from food. So some kind of calculation could probably be made as to how much work is required to operate the exercise bike, which probably depends on your height and weight. That work uses a certain amount of energy, which is probably equated into calories.

All that said, I have no idea how accurate that would be. And in the end IIRC there’s a bunch of other factors that affect how humans burn calories and gain or lose weight, so in the end the calorie burning stats only really need to be comparable to other calorie burning stats. So I think the bigger question is: Do different exercise equipment types put out comparable numbers?

It’s only illegal federally to gerrymander to dilute minorities. Otherwise it’s up to the individual states.

Yeah I agree with you here. A lot of Trackmania players are annoyed by Trackmania’s $20 a year subscription and have called to make it F2P with cosmetic microtransactions, but I’m pretty happy that hasn’t happened. There isn’t even any DLC. It is really nice to see not have to see ads to pay more money for stuff.

I think “speed up Wayland development” isn’t quite right, tho it will probably feel that way to end user. It’s about getting experimental protocols into the hands of users in a formalized manner while the stable protocol is still being forged. This already exists in certain forms e.g. HDR support being added before the protocol is finalized, but having a more formalized system is probably pretty helpful for interoperability, e.g. apps having to work with different DE’s.

My biggest is concern is whether there’s a possibility this will actually slow down Wayland development by pulling attention away from the stable Wayland protocols in favor of Frog Protocols. But hopefully the quicker real world usage of the new protocols will bring more benefits than the potential downside.

Yeah, I love my XCover Pro for this.

The main thing I would say is that you may run into issues if you want to run software from both OSes on the same partition. If both Windows and Linux are trying to execute or install programs on the same partition, they can end up messing with permissions for the other OS (mostly Windows messing with Linux). Reading and writing data should be fine, so intermingling storage shouldn’t be a problem, but execution can be more complex.
