And at the same time we have the Jugendmedienstaatsvertrag in Germany (and with Germany as a strong force in the EU most likely everywhere in the EU soon) that will make all operating systems without fully integrated age restrictions illegal https://www.heise.de/en/news/Minors-protection-State-leaders-mandate-filters-for-operating-systems-10199455.html

Manufacturers of operating systems must then ensure that "only apps that correspond to the age specification or that have been individually and securely activated can be used". The installation of programs should only be possible via distribution platforms such as app stores that take the age rating into account and have an automated rating system recognized by the Commission for the Protection of Minors in the Media (KJM).

This part of the law alone is impossible to implement on a open platform like Linux.

Problem with anxiety is that literally anything can be a trigger, that makes it so complicated (even impossible) to create a world without them.

I don't want to belittle the point that you are raising, I for myself have more then enough other anxieties to know better then that, and you have my fullest sympathies.

As much as I would be happy for Ubisoft to have a success, they really need one, I just don't trust unverifiable number. I always want to know metrics and data.

Ubisoft can tell us everything. And what does 2 million players really mean? How many of them refunded the game in the 2h at Steam for example? How many are players who, for an hour or two, looked into the game as part of their Ubisoft gamepass equivalent? 2 million players can mean all kind of things. It doesn't say much really about the success.

Yes I can. But I am a Linux system administrator with 20 years of experience. This should not be the level of measurement for stuff like this. 😉

What I meant was: Don't put a Microsoft master trusted authority in the Kernel, unless one chooses to install a Microsoft distribution. And don't go the SSL/TLS way with the huge number of default authorities that get installed on every system. It would be a pain to be forced to always build my own Kernel again just to keep Microsoft or any other institution/company that I find untrustworthy out of it.

I hope we will learn from the SecureBoot debacle and not give Microsoft the primary signing keys and infrastructure for this again.

That is highly depending on the type of Museum. Many Videogame and Computer Museums (at least in Germany) are showing the real Hardware running, some are even allowing the visitors to use and play at the old machines. And yes, they are often very used to repairing the hardware too.

I would expect from Nintendo that they would show and use real hardware in their museum, and not some emulators. Because I can see the games on an emulator at home (for example using my Switch Online or my SNES Classic), I don't need a museum for that experience.

God of War No PSN Requirement Mod

Hi <@&1116364961757790238>

We've had several questions from the community about the NoPSSDK mod for God of War Ragnarok which is no longer available on the site.

We would like to clarify this page was removed by the mod author and not by a member of our team.

I've reached out to iArtorias to find out what happened, but we suspect that Sony may have requested they remove it as they've deleted it from GitHub too.

Mostly historical reasons, /home was often a network mounted directory, but /root must be local.

And only regular users have their home in /home

The problem is the direct contact to the water, a blanket with water running through it in a circle with a heat spreader or a different cooling device would solve that and would reduce the amount of water by a lot. The blanket would be a bit heavier but by that it would double as a weighted blanket too.

Instead of a blanket the same could be built into the mattresses, not really a water bed but a bed with water cooling.

Devices, for example computers, get cooled like that.

Creating a good emulator takes a lot of time and money, and that I think is the true reason why.

What they have released is a MVP, a minimum viable product, it checks all the boxes for a releaseable thing and that's what the higher ups, the product leads and other finance stakeholders want to hear.

Additional features or proper scaling? Yeah, nice we put that on the list for MVP+, for sure! When will that come? Nobody knows and we have no development time to work on it because now with the release the focus was shifted to the next project, but it is on the list and we will come back to it.

I have heard that so often in so many projects I was part of, as a grunt with no power, and for nearly all of them I still wait for the MVP+ time to ever happen.
