With a Nintendo Switch 2 on the way, I hope Valve make a Steam Deck 2
I love my Steam Deck, as any regular reader will know. It's my favourite gaming device but it could always be better right? And with competition hot (hi Nintendo), I hope Valve have more plans.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Thing is: bringing the performance up can quickly be evened out by also bringing the resolution up.
I am not sure what resolution is necessary for a really good experience on such a small device, but I am sure there's a golden balance to find somewhere in there.

A big overhaul of Nextcloud Hub tailored to the needs of the public sector ๐๏ธ

Open-source file syncing and sharing software company Nextcloud has presented its new release, Nextcloud Hub 8, to about 200 people at the Nextcloud Enterprise day in Munich on Wednesday.Sam Varghese (iTWire)
How can we know "Tables" won't simply become abandonware with the next upgrade to Nextcloud, as you've done with other popular apps like "News" and "Social?" Can you please write an article about your testing procedures to ensure the app interfaces remain stable from one version to the next, so that apps (and our data in them!) don't keep suddenly disappearing with an upgrade?
We don't trust our workflows to Nextcloud yet, because of these mistakes you've made in the past.

After 10 months off for my science journalism fellowship at MIT Iโm jumping back into infectious disease reporting and uh boy Iโm not gonna be bored am I?!
Here's a first story on #h5n1 in cows (and I'll try to write a thread later):
I'm serious when I say that I am among David O'Doherty's first fans. Many years ago he came out to Australia to perform in the Melbourne International Comedy Festival. He was evidently struggling to bring in audiences and get laughs. A friend of mine working at the festival gave me a couple of complimentary tickets. At that point I didn't realise that she was using me, because I'm a big laugher and good for warming up an audience. I didn't know I had a super-power! (an incredibly minor one, but it gets me free tickets!) Anyway, this bit is for all us techies!

"Under the Calculative Gaze" by Sanela Jahiฤ explores the socio-political implications of AI, not only directly interwoven with unresolved injustices of the prevailing socio-economic system, but actually enables a transition to authoritarianism, which can be observed in the technology industry itself, in the politics of different countries and institutions and in the rise of right-wing extremist political movements.

Hello Nextcloud Team, thanks for the amazing work !I'm sorry but what we need is not AI. We don't need an AI assistant to sort out our mess. We need well-coded solutions that don't allow mess to appear in the first place.
We need a decent maps app that can sync favorites with a smartphone app, and make trip building as easy as in Rome2Rio, with a focus on public transportation and bike.
This should be top priority.

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).
