Probably in relation to the Chinese govt. banning these practices too. We’ll see a lot of governments following shit soon hopefully.

what else were they meant to spend it on, improving their country’s economy?

People always use that argument like it isn’t dangerous being gay, trans, etc. in the US. don’t throw stones in glass houses

ornithologist here, that’s definitely a lil guy

That’s disinformatsya to you, sir.

Wolfenstein drama was really the beginning of the end

Are they even close to delivering anything that they offered back in 2012???

If consoles want to remain relevant in the age of the gaming PC, they have to try harder than being locked-down gaming PCs.

Free and simple multiplayer, subsidised hardware, and physical game ownership were staples of most consoles for years but now the urge to turn every device into an “everything machine” has kneecapped the very purpose of these devices.

At best, these are slightly less hassle and slightly more social than a gaming PC. At worst, they’re as anti-social and user-hostile without the cost benefit that once made them genuinely preferable.

This is by UK artist Darren Cullen, aka SpellingMistakesCostLives. He also runs the Museum of Neoliberalism in the UK and has done a bunch of anti war/army/MIC pieces. All in all a decent dude.

Remember like 8 months ago when IDF swifties were posting her songs to videos supporting Zionism? I’m glad she’s finally chosen to back KKKamala seconds after it became clear she was the most likely winner, though.

The UK’s minimum age for social media is 13, and has been for over a decade now. I’ll leave it to the reader to figure out if children are able to circumvent this airtight legal framework.

this is very cool.

one of the main issues with a lot of alternate kernels is the driver support. even a really impressive project like Redox is kinda limited to the hardware the maintainers can get their hands on.

Would this support that?

His cells are flaccid, folks. No turgidity in them at all.

more crab-bucket bollocks instead of improving Linux gaming.

The same relationship of the cost of high virulence hurting the fitness of a pathogen may not apply if hosts are kept in proximity that a fast death doesn’t necessarily mean the pathogen cannot find a new host.

It may have been how the 1918 flu pandemic was so deadly yet still successful at spreading to new hosts; being spread amongst soldiers in trenches and infirmaries and troop ships compared.

Plus, there are evolutionary pressures on pathogens to become more virulent; using less resources by the host only leads to being outcompeted by more virulent pathogens. While mortality is a limiting factor, there is a temporary benefit to strategies that select for virulence until that limit is reached.

All we need is a world conflict to recreate the exact conditions of the 1918 influenza pandemic.

The “Hamas” number is just the official number provided by whatever healthcare workers are still alive after Israel’s year-long explicit campaign to vaporise them.

Almost every conflict/genocide in history has way lower official death tolls because of exactly this: Either the victims are killed off before they can report their own numbers, or there is simply no means to confirm every death. If an entire family is crushed under rubble, you’re not going to be able to report that.

The numbers given (5x the official number or whatever) is through analysis of these historical tragedies and the discrepancy between the official/initial totals and the “accurate”/researched totals.

It might be crude, but it is much more reflective of the very visible disaster being allowed to unfold than the Gaza Health Ministry which is barely able to account for a hundred dead per day. It is likely even more, considering the thousands in death/torture camps set up across the Zionist state; Many of these prisoners were taken from work on October 7th/8th and haven’t been freed since.

I think (aka speculate) that the fact that Windows is the largest OS plays into the fact that Linux-Mac compatibility isn’t more developed.

I bet some 90% of desktop software is available on Windows (even many core KDE are on Windows!) so targeting them brings most Apple apps onto Linux “for free”. Especially since Apple’s insistence on trying to make Metal a thing hurts gaming support, which is a big driver behind Linux compatibility development.

The few applications that MacOS has over both Linux and Windows are usually so embedded into the Apple ecosystem that you’re not getting much by porting them anyway. iTunes? The App Store? Garage Band? Probably doesn’t help that many of those apps also use Apple’s own UI framework which isn’t really portable.

However, stuff not designed to live in Apple land like Teams for Mac or Adobe CC might be more possible. But still far too few applications to necessitate the effort to bring them over.

Pop is the only one that really ever makes any reference to windows in its marketing. I’m more talking about distros like Zorin which are targeting public sector orgs and windows users by bundling windows compatibility apps and features into the ISO.

The other examples definitely do also target “new users” which of course means Windows users too, but they aren’t explicitly tying their distros to Windows software compatibility the same way some are.
