Do you happen to know if you still need the HDR layer when using Wayland directly? I know gamescope didn't require it for a while now but I never saw anything about it for Wine.

Why?

It makes no sense for a government/military to use a proprietary system made in another country when there's a very strong movement inside of said government for an open system. They have incredibly smart people at SUSE, Manjaro and KDE right on the inside and you are telling me they can't do better than hitting subscribe on Office365?

Assume the EU and US have a conflict, now the EU is stuck with an entire ecosystem made in the US. Assuming they don't already have all your internal data, they can just get it with a single click.

Roomba? It takes less time to just vacuum the place than it does for the fucking vacuum to realize it’s been humping the same chair leg for most of its battery charge.

If you are willing to put in some work, Valetudo is fantastic: https://valetudo.cloud/

My two robot vacuums have been working for 5 years with no intervention other than emptying the bin every 2 weeks and dusting off the sensors when it complains.

Assistants?

Same as above, if you are willing to put in some work, Home Assistant includes a voice assistant and they ship devices now with everything preinstalled so you can plug in and go: https://www.home-assistant.io/green/

Great to see that Epic didn't snatch that one up.

I love Remedy and their games but their publisher choice is always atrocious.

Also, abusing a Github issue as your personal Twitter timeline is not going to persuade anyone.

The comments in that issue are atrocious.

Shoutout to Frictional Games (known for Penumbra, Amnesia, Soma) who publish many of their older (commercially successfully) games on their GitHub: https://github.com/FrictionalGames

It's twice as funny in this game because they added Denuvo a year after release. Meaning all pirates got the game DRM free on day one while paying customers got Denuvo patched in.

Absolute waste of money.

Gog is objectively giving you more value for your money

What value do they give you exactly?

The games are mostly priced the same, they don't have integrated modding support, no input remapping, no remote play, no in-home streaming, no steamcmd for server operators, no VR client, no Linux client and no Steam Deck support.

The only thing they do give you is no DRM, but nothing stops a developer from adding a DRM-free game on Steam.

Plex has been hostile towards self-hosting since the very beginning. They have been asked to add local authentication for more than 10 years.

To be fair, Google releases a lot of models as open source: https://huggingface.co/google

Using public content to create public models is also fine in my book.

But since it's Google I'm also sure they are doing a lot of shady stuff behind closed doors.
