Here's a fun fact

Whilst the term underflow does have a different meaning when referring to floating point numbers, it can also refer to an integer going past the minimum limit , this may also be called a negative overflow but that is not the only correct term for it.

I really wish it was playable on Linux. The Epic version at least, is not. At least not without some really messy workarounds, because some FMVs are in some unknown codec, which does not work on Proton. Of course, SE could change that, but that would make too much sense ๐Ÿ˜•


Sounds like a privacy nightmare. You should consider #Linux ๐Ÿ‘

One day this will type of stuff will end up mandatory, and even if itโ€™s local itโ€™s being fed into an AI. This stuff will get abused.

And any government that has the power to turn off the internet and communications at the flip of a switch has such in place for the purpose of control, repression, propaganda and the ability to break civilian interactions for fear of revolt. This is not a free nation.

Small countries can do things that seem incomprehensible to larger countries. Not always sinister, but can be sometimes.

What jobs are we preparing students for by boosting their writing productivity with AI? After shedding 40% of its workforce, the gaming site Gamurs posted an ad last June for an editor to write 250 articles per week. Thatโ€™s a new article every 10 minutes, at $4.25 per article.

As @novomancy has noted, AI is only the accomplice here. This clickbait nightmare is the logical conclusion of the ad-supported web.

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux ๐Ÿง๐ŸŽฎ

Time for @ByttenStudio to take a victory lap; they just buried their competition with Capricorpse!

Seriously though, just play @CassetteBeasts I have so few complaints on it and it's probably one of my favorite indie games of all time, and it's made with Godot, works on Linux natively, and the developers are on the fediverse! Not to mention, they seem very receptive to fans, unlike that other company...



'However, work on a variety of systems, such as RNA secondary structures & proteinโ€“DNA interactions, has shown that robustness can facilitate evolvability under certain conditions. Specifically, robustness to mutations can lead to numerous sequences with similar functions that differ by few mutations.'

You know what, I can absolutely respect this take, he's not dancing around the subject trying to be nice so that he doesn't hurt anyone's feeling, he's willing to step up and just be an asshole so that he can say what a lot of people are think about OSS world.hey.com/dhh/open-source-โ€ฆ

most of the work on projects is fixing bugs/ patching CVEs and ensuring back compatibility. it is a small group who have bug fixing skills that contribute the most and/or add to the main architecture of a project, which does give them more weight in any say.

FOSS is indeed a gift and i love when repos have the 'buy me a coffee' option as a way to give an option for compensation.

feels wrong to read him imply that other human beings are "parasite".



Ooh I just noticed that the PolicyKit website is much improvedโ€”nice work @axz and team! policykit.org/
in reply to Nathan Schneider

Is it decentralised though?
I think democracy without decentralisation is toothless.
in reply to Christmas Lights

@light decentralized in what sense? That word can mean nearly anything. The project is open-source and plausibly self-hostable, I believe.
in reply to Nathan Schneider

I mean in the sense of running on a network of nodes rather than a single server.

I don't see how you can enforce the political system so it doesn't devolve into a dictatorship with the system admin in charge if/when he/she goes rogue otherwise.

@light I can't see the original message but yes, self-hosting is totally possible!

Also if interested in fully technically decentralized, there is a recent paper just out that removes the need for a governance server and does everything on clients using the MLS protocol: james.grimmelmann.net/files/arโ€ฆ

I wholeheartedly agree with you on this (the message, not the title). It's why when I first wanted to donate to support Linux desktop I gave it to KDE cause I use/love KDE.

Maybe it is high time to get the Free Desktop a foundation and drown them in money.


phanpy.social is a pretty incredible Mastodon client. Entirely web based, looks great on mobile and desktop, you can configure your shortcuts that appear above or below the river of news.

Some screenshots from my own account: good notifications page, different kinds of toots get a different status, plus Boosts are shown in their own carousel.

I've heard one developer made all this, it's pretty incredible.
