Depends. This happened at a German conference and I assume that this person is most likely German as well. Probably shouldn’t think about getting anywhere close to the US though.
There’s still the possibility of facing prosecution in Germany. Not sure how probable that is though.
Pretty good take. IMO, it’s also quite ironic that the FSF is pushing the same flawed logic that politicians do when they want to outlaw secure encryption, just for a different (noble) goal.
Em dashes, weird quote marks are always a giveaway
In a random comment or blog? Sure. In a professionally proofread document? No, adding those might as well be part of the job description. After all, the LLMs picked also have to have picked that behaviour up from somewhere.
Anyway, OP should have included the source, but it can be found pretty easily: https://bsky.app/profile/sanders.senate.gov/post/3m7izwntr322z
It’s both. Nvidia just started calling everything DLSS, no matter how accurately it matches the actual term.
Image upscaling? DLSS. Frame generation? DLSS. Ray reconstruction? DLSS. Image downscaling? Surprisingly, also DLSS.
What I don’t understand is why the person that owns the device wrote the following in their blog post:
How could a simple IP block disable a vacuum cleaner that is supposed to work offline as well? - Source
This seems like that device was sold to him as “offline” capable. Where does that claim even come from? From a cursory glance I don’t see that product advertised that way anywhere.
Now, I’d be totally in favor that such devices working offline should be the norm, but then again, the person writing the blog should know how these devices currently work.
Yup. Form factors are often overlooked. I regularly use…
… for gaming and I play a wildly different set of games on each device. It’s hard to describe why exactly, but some games just feel more “correct” when played on one device over another.
My assumption is that it probably uses the same mechanism that most other SSDs already have where it always saves the data with internal encryption and simply overwrites the encryption key when a wipe is requested.
This same mechanism already allows SSDs to be formatted quickly while still being secure without having to zero out everything, which would cause a lot of additional wear.
The additional complete wiping would just be the cherry on top.
Agree. Outer Wilds is my favorite game and all the others in that section aren’t far behind.
That is, except for Ultros, which is a game I’ve heard about before but didn’t know it belonged in this category of games. I guess I know what I have to check out next.
Yup. I’ve tried the game during their recent free weekend, and even with an empty map the FPS went below 30 FPS. Granted, that was at 4K with high settings, but still very much inexcusable considering it’s running on a 9070XT and again, a completely empty map.
After all, even putting all the other problems the game has aside, why shouldn’t I just play the first game if this one doesn’t manage to either look or perform dramatically better?
First up, this fork is specifically about the Android client, not any other ones.
The fork of that always had some nice mobile battery saving features added, but morr importantly, the original version has been discontinued.
Damn. Looks like I really should stop being lazy and check out some mobile clients that weren’t abandoned like Sync. It’s even reformatting my manually typed spoiler tags to the wrong format after I submit.

Adding onto that, the app StreetComplete makes contributing stupidly easy. You basically get a bunch of quests generatef around you with missing or potentially outdated data that you can fill in by answering simple questions. Basically Pokemon Go, but infinitely more useful.
Not sure why exactly, but if I had to guess it’s probably a lack of marketing people in the FOSS world in general.
Recently I’ve only really seen recently the End of 10 campaign from the KDE folks gaining a bit of traction, but even that’s more vaguely pointing in the direction of Linux than anything.
From what I gather, the only thing they’ve got going for them is that they’re actually contacting key people to try out the distro, as well as timing that campaign to coincide with the EOL of Win10.
But yeah, so annoying to see when there’s so many better alternatives by better people out there.
As for the latter, I haven’t confirmed this myself, but I’ve been hearing that there’s a lot of curling into bash going on, so yeah.
I mean, verification doesn’t really help because in the end it’s still mostly human posting the AI slop (I think).
That said, we’ll probably need some sort of reputation system. Something like a revamped GPG or Web Of Trust, where you a) can tag users/websites you find trustworth and b) can see what other people you trust think about someone/something.
Over the last year or so NVIDIA massively improved their Wayland support. May not be perfect, may not be as good as AMD, but it usually cones with lass drawbacks than the X11 experience.
It seems to be a reaction to the restrictive design philosophy of Gnome but not moving too far from it at the moment.
For me, that’s indeed the main reason. I actually prefer their look and feel of Gnome, but absolutely loathe quite a few of their stubborn decisions, so I currently stick with KDE (which is also great). From what I’ve seen and tried, Cosmic seems to try and become a mix between those two.
That, and it’s neat having a DE that offers both tiling and floating and treats them as equally important.
Agree. It’s neat for file transfers and simple one-shot backups, but if you’re looking for a proper backup solution then other tools/services have advanced virtually every aspect of backups so much it pretty much always makes sense to use one of those instead.
I’m guessing it’s real, just shot with a phone that does a lot of “AI” postprocessing.
