Easy Anti Cheat - requires manual removal

Wait, so this sketchy, privacy-invading stuff remains even after a game is uninstalled?! I had no idea.

How is this stuff not classed as malware at this point?

Haha. There’s no Wayland support… yet. Check out gpu-screen-recorder for a very similar project with Wayland support

Has “laying off staff to focus on AI “ become a common euphemism for “we hired too many people”?

From nbcnews…

The [tech] guild says it has been fighting for a contract to secure better wages, hours, benefits and job security, as well as foster diversity, equity and inclusion among the organization’s workforce.

The guild has accused Times management of not bargaining in good faith and making inflammatory decisions, like firing employees without just cause and limiting bargaining time in an effort to delay an agreement.

C++: Nuh, uh ...

template <typename T>
concept Crackable = requires(T obj) {
    { obj.crack() };
};

auto crack(Crackable auto& nut) {
    nut.crack();
}

What a shame. He was a good man

I’ve often wondered if nvidia are constantly assessing the engineering work required to maintain Linux drivers for their commercial GPUs, and now I’m wondering if they’re adding telemetry to provide data for this decision.

That means cryptographic keys under one government’s control could be used to intercept HTTPS communication

Could someone smarter than me explain how this would be possible? Wouldn’t the browser still be able to enforce privacy between the client and origin? Or is it the case that certificates issued by these CAs could in theory only support weaker cyphers?

Edit: Some really useful explanations. Thank you!

I’m gonna be that person… I rarely, if ever have issues with nvidia on Linux. Used several 30xx series cards for gaming over the last couple of years and it’s been a great experience.

Is it my distro (Void)?. is it because I’m happy staying on X11? Is it just luck? Interested to hear people’s gripes

I can’t shake the feeling that Win11 is part of the AI grift master-plan. They’re a big investor in OpenAI, and OpenAI needs to start showing large, genuine revenue. Locking both consumers and business customers into a subscription model for the largest OS by market share to fund this grift seems like exactly such collusion. The required minimum hardware requirements for Win11 feel like the big clue, here.

I absolutely plan to support team red/blue GPUs. I just don’t have access to the h/w right now

Thank you for your kind words!

I haven’t made the jump to Wayland yet. I basically live in the terminal (when I’m not playing games!) so haven’t been in any rush. I definitely want to support Wayland going forward because it seems everyone has switched but me!

Thank you Lord Gaben CodeWeaverss Sun Microsystems

It’s corporations making money off of OSS all the way down

Great work! I did think that news article was a bit too perfect of an ending

As someone who’s team has to go on 1st line support rota every few weeks; The ticket queue has a metric shit-ton of these reports that just never get “fixed”. Can relate.

This is dangerous

Well, they say you do have to be over 18 to use Concepts

Just by “eyeballing” the two, there’s very little, if any difference on my setup.

• kitty terminal emulator
• Vim for editing
• CMake for builds
• A shell script based around entr for automatically running the build/test cycle when I modify files

It’s an old picture. It shows a sign for the Triangle Shopping Centre, which hasn’t existed for ~10 years, if memory serves.
