Mac gaming would have been light years ahead of where we currently are if Apple officially supported Vulkan. I believe early versions of Proton targeted both Linux and MacOS. But Valve walked away after Apple showed little to no interest in working with them.
They tried various pricing plans although I forget if they experimented with both usage based and capped plans. Anything other than unlimited did not go over well with users. I had no desire to manage a monthly cap since my own daily usage varied so much. People had also become very conditioned to having unlimited search.
Zuck is a fucking piece a shit. But the headline and article misrepresents what he was saying. His actual quote was "Some people may leave our platforms for virtue signaling" and appears to be directed towards users, not Meta employees.
It's a tech demo at this point, not a product. Tim Cook wanted something to cement his legacy so they released it even though the technology was not at all ready yet. The potential is impressive but we're years away.
Say what you want about Steve Jobs. But his timing during his second stint at Apple was unrivaled. He knew what to bet on and when. And he wasn't afraid to go all in and bet the company on it.
It does work with Jellyfin.
Proper HDR support, both on the encoding and decoding side, has been a chore since the beginning. There's no excuse for Plex. But in the open source community, development started slowly because most devs didn't own anything that was capable of playing HDR.
I never said that I was surprised. I just wanted to point out that many companies like my own are already making significant changes to how they hire and fire. They need to justify their large investment in AI even though we know the tech isn't there yet.
The obsession with replacing workers with AI isn't going to die. It's too late. The large financial company that I work for has been obsessively tracking hours saved in developer time with GitHub Copilot. I'm an older developer and I was warned this week that my job will be eliminated soon.
Just block the user. I like Bluesky but I'm tired of the constant posts too.
The relentless pursuit of capitalism and reduced labor costs. I still don't think anyone knows how effective it's going to be at this point. But companies are investing billions to find out.
To me, if Valve wants Linux multiplayer to have a future, they need to demonstrate that they can develop a good Linux anti-cheat solution.
That's much easier said than done. But I hope it's a problem that they're working on. Otherwise, it's going to limit the potential of the Steam Deck and other future Valve Linux hardware.
It was probably incompetence more than malice but T-Mobile customer service incorrectly told me multiple times that I was not allowed to pay off my phone balance early to unlock it. I'm on US Mobile now and I'll never go back to postpaid.
Search for portable Jellyfin media server projects. It looks like there's a few out there.
If you're going to use this in a car, it needs to be as simple as plugging in a single device and powering it on. An over-engineered solution is going to quickly turn into a headache.
I'm definitely interested in a modern Steam Machine and I wish them luck. But it's tough to manage the logistics of crowdfunded hardware if you're inexperienced and I've been burned before. Hopefully they can handle it.
You do. It automatically reboots after applying rpm-ostree updates.
You're right and I'm not saying that I recommend settling it to permissive. You should understand the risks involved.
I've been using Fedora CoreOS as my main server in my home lab for a couple years now and have been very happy with it. You still get the convenience of automatic atomic updates and you also have the flexibility of being able to install whatever additional Fedora packages you need with rpm-ostree.
I installed Docker Engine and docker-compose from upstream. You should be able to set SELinux to permissive mode if you need to so it doesn't enforce any policies.
To me, "with Gemini" further underscores big tech's complete obsession with everything AI. I don't really see it as a commentary on the phones themselves.
