Spoiler alert: My book #GovernableSpaces ends with this image by Darija Medić, borrowing from the wonderful native-land.ca—a reminder from Indigenous legacies that sovereignty need not depend on monopolies over land and militarized borders.

Start reading at the end, if you do that: luminosoa.org/site/books/10.15…



PSA - If your Steam Deck or Steam on Linux has started failing to download or launch Proton games, you may have caught a bad config from Valve's servers.

We believe the problem is fixed now, but you need to delete a cache file locally (`~/.steam/steam/userdata/<steamid>/config/compat.vdf` where <steamid> is your id).

See github.com/ValveSoftware/steam… for details.

it looks really interesting and I may check it out. Puzzle games have never been my strong-suit, and can lead to frustration if they're too difficult or obtuse for me, but I still enjoy playing some of them.

For a publisher struggling to release good games and hoping to finally find success in Japan, shutting down Tango (who just had a big hit) seems like an especially dumb move.

I had no clue this was a distro specific issue! Ever since switching to Linux I had to retire my VR headset since I couldn’t get it to work.

Seeing that Valve is working on this makes me hopeful to try it out again soon!

> What does Playtron have to do with Crypto?

FFFFuuuuu.... I hope the answer would be less than nothing.

> Is PlaytronOS open source?
> At first, only the operating system code will be open source. We have plans to open source more...

Yeah, I really hope they mean that seriously. I want gaming to happen on Linux, but I'd really like everything that does not strictly have to be proprietary for business sustainability to be Open Source, and preferrably Free as in Freedom.

AI voiced audiobooks have been a boon to indie creators by giving them access to the audiobook market without having to paying for studio time for human narrators.

It means there’s now even more content for readers that needs filtering and narrators are losing gigs. This is what #disruption looks like. Two steps forward and one step back.

I will probably delete this toot later.
I have seen AI-generated images containing the same elements (e.g. an AI-generated image with the same amount of cats, two small, and one large white cat with intricate golden patterns, a lotus flower, and a remaining coin at the top) & the same colors in my artwork. I especially mean the right picture in the three-pictured layout.

How should I feel about such situations?

Sigh. Google flagged gamingonlinux.com/2024/05/clas… as containing "Malicious or unwanted software" with no way on the adsense control panel to speak to them, to get them to recheck it.

It's a news article about a game, that links to the GPL source code (GitHub) and a Steam page.

What about that is "Malicious or unwanted software" exactly?

it sucks that Google dominates web search. I've switched to using DuckDuckGo and Ecosia. I know Bing powers them, but still more refreshing to use those services. I hope Google doesn't keep you down!

If you're, say, occupying space somewhere with other people, you'll need to have a way to make hard decisions—like, say, how to face attacks by fascists or police.

That's why my lab is building CommunityRule.info, a tool for designing self-governance practices, grounded in mutual aid.

"Big project problems" are certainly problems to have, word to #NixOS - because it is easy to FLAKE on community GOALS when CONTENTION is more important than CONSENSUS.

I'm DYING to know the outcome... *cough*...

Not a point of contention at all.
