This is the weekly post about how many signatures have been collected this week for the EU petition on the stop killing games campaign to prevent game publishers from intentionally destroying their games after official support ends.
Please support the initiative of Stop Killing Games!
Edit:
I revised the post title to include the intiative's name as the original post title without the community's context made this needlessly vague
TL;DW:
Nvidia's RTX 5050 is a waste of your time, money, and trust as a tech consumer and PC gamer.
Please consider buying a used GPU on Ebay, Kijiji, or anywhere else you can as you will get a much better deal than this.
As a monopoly with 92% marketshare, Nvidia is actively choosing to deceive consumers to buy whatever they're selling.

Sunwapta Falls Easy two mile out and back trail located along the icefields parkway south of Jasper. The main falls are located at the beginning of the hike and the trail follows along the river downstream, revealing several more waterfalls as you go. River access can be had at the end of the trail as it leaves the canyon. The upper area gets a ton of usage, as does the second falls which are fairly close by and have a good viewing area. Thins out a little beyond that, but its a short hike so stays fairly busy.
The second falls (not including the big chute that comes out from the upper falls). Drops around 15 ft before going into another chute.
The outflow from the uppermost waterfall rushing under the bridge above. Over time it has carved a curving path into the rock on the side with this viewpoint.
Looking downstream from this large waterfall just off the trail. When hiking, you will be afforded other angles of the falls as you continue the trail. The Catacombs Mountains can be seen in the distance.

As someone that's a major fan of the AGPL-3.0 license, even I have a hard time believing that this would bring people back to Redis.
It's an upward battle from here on because they were the ones who chose to demolish their customer's trust.
I'd personally suggest sending an email to one of your profs about noticing potentially malicious network activity that originated from a fellow uni student with your attached proof.
In that same email you could ask them what's the proper procedure for the circumstance you're in.
What’s driving the surge?
Right-wing driven vaccine misinformation
I'm not surprised that the OBS devs are considering suing Fedora for their Fedora Flatpaks.
For anyone out of the loop:
Fedora's been packaging and providing apps as Fedora Flatpaks which cause users trouble cause they're honestly pretty shit and known to be unreliable. The issue is that users assume that these faulty packages are provided by the Original Devs and complain towards the ODevs.
As endless waves of users complain towards the ODevs it causes them unnecessary headache as well as costing valuable time and resources to tell users that it's actually Fedora fucking things for everyone.
All of this is unnecessary because if Fedora stopped installing Fedora Flatpaks as the default then there wouldn't be this problem in the first place.
Based on recent news I'm guessing this might be the result of a DDoS attack from the far-right
It's actually different and better as the previous naming scheme was actually horrendous (trying to explain it to customers was a nightmare).
Cause previously if you wanted to figure out what speed of USB port you were getting you'd have to look up the table because me telling you that a port was USB 3.2 Gen 2x2 doesn't tell you jack shit.
Can you see how cursed this is for non-tech savvy people? Absolutely terrible.
Thankfully now the new naming scheme will be:
USB +
So the xkcd meme actually isn't relevant here.
Edit:
Revised grammar in the first sentence
Zuck is one of humanity's cancers
nah, it's crazy that phone designers let it go
Unsurprising given that their repo's license was a contradictory mess
Anyways I'd recommend using Strawberry instead

This is absolutely insane
My condolences to all Windows 11 users.
It's becoming common knowledge that:
"I assume every online service is not if; it's when is it going to be breached? Right? So I operate under that assumption, that everything is going to be breached at some point. And so that's why Recall was so scary to me where it's like, I don't care how secure they say it is, like you look at Spectre and Meltdown no one thought these things were going to affect millions of CPUs and here we are, right?

This was not unexpected as Facebook has history of poor moderation and deliberate spread of misinformation.
If you're an instance owner or admin you might want to consider again defederating from Threads and joining the Fedipact
