Maybe because of Nozi? Would be a weird filter.

This is the principle behind the rotor ships. It really is just a rotating cylinder.
Just a side note - while the original comment wasn't directly speaking about this, and something like this requires way more precise instruments amd can't be done just from your total energy consumption, it is kind of possible to in theory decode/steal data from your PC based on it's pwer consumption, such as stealing private cryptography keys.
It's mostly theoretical and very specific attack, but I find things like that super cool so I kist wanted to share them. The whole area of Side channel attacks is cool.
The anti-canvas fingerprinting that replaces all canvases (or whatever it is, usually dynamicly drawn stuff) with rainbow square does break a lot of stuff. It used to break even pasting of images to messenger.
Good reminder to have https://snowflake.torproject.org/ ready.
And run a node, if you can! It's just an extension, and shouldn't cause any trouble (since it's a middle node, IIRC).
I'm not sure how to feel about this.
On one hand, it's consequences for CEO, and he does deserve that.
On the other hand, it's people who are deliberately investing into Meta, knowing full well how does it operate and what it does, who are now mad at Meta leadership that Meta got caught, and they lost money due to fines Meta paid, so they are suing the leadership to get their money back. And that is really scummy.
I think I want them to loose and get fucked, I hate shareholders even more than CEOs, because it's the shareholders who decide who is going to be a CEO, and who the CEO answers to. They are the people who are behind mass layoffs, and any other enshittification, because they don't care about the product, only that the lines goes up, and ruin good companies. So, they can go get fucked, and I really hope they loose.
That was probably the dramma about Fedora ending support of 32b libraries, which Steam heavily relies on and won't easily work without.
It's still being discussed, and even if they go through with it (which is a PR suicide for Fedora), it won't be earlier than in two years.
I work in gamedev, both on my own game in my free time, and professionally. Projects take years to develop, and Unity was doing pretty ok 6 years ago, when I started my own project. Will I make another one in Godot? Very probably yes, Unity sucks, but moving an existing project is unfeasible.
Another reasons are console ports. Getting a Unity game to run (run, not release/port completely, but that's an important step) on any console is pretty simple, since all the core libraries are prepared for you and you just include them. For Godot, you have to find someone who already has those libraries.
Unreal is too heavyweight for a lot of games. It's amazing if you want some kind of realistic-leaning 3D, but the project size and (editor) performance is a huge problem for smaller things. Still better in a lot of things compared to Unity, but it's also harder to get into, since it's C++. Unity with C# is way more approachable, especially for students with laptops, who can barely get the editor running (It was a reason why I barely finished my Unreal assignments on college, and stuck with Unity). So, you have a lot of people who grew up on Unity, making it easier to hire for it. And when you are used to one engine for most of your life, with years of experience that's limited to it, it is difficult to switch (although, almost everyone I talked to who works in Unity has "learn Godot" on their todo list)
I've been mostly seeing Unreal recently, when talking to other devs and studios at conferences, and not many new Unity projects. Anecdotal evidence, though.
Also, while I'll definitely use Godot for any future project (which I already did for some gamejams), I can't imagine maintaining a large AA(A) codebase written in GDscript. To be fair, it might be because I don't have any large-scale project python experience (which I also can't imagine writing a large app with), and IIRC the C# support isn't as good in Godot yet.
Which probably also already happened to train it in the first place. Article is about Anthropic, but xAI would do the same if they could.
Isn't Aurora still Fedora? Then it probably wouldn't solve the issue with gaming on Fedora being made so difficult to set up, that it forced one of the more popular distros to shut down.
Bazzite is a gaming focused distro, so I wager that that would be a major problem for a lot of people.
The only choice for a lot of gamers (including me) will simply be to not use Fedora, and find a new distro to switch to, which is a shame. (Although, it will probably just be SteamOS at that point). I'm also worried about my Lenovo Legion Go. It's unusable with Windows, and Bazzite being atomic is a really really good fit for it, and they have builds specially tailored for Legion.
But we still have two years to go, so we'll see. I don't think Fedora has the power and market share to force others to follow with depreciation of 32b, and unless other distros join in, it will just be a PR disaster and people will just begrudgingly move to other distros.
Wow, I had no idea Microsoft is gamified. That sounds like such a dystopic experience :D
As far as I know monero didn't really have that issue, of being a pyarmid scheme, while also being privacy-respecting way more than Bitcoin.
Which is also why it's starting to get banned in Europe. As far as I know, most brokers don't even sell it.
