Oh look, Starlink is continuing to screw up the sky in every way possible.

"Second-Generation Starlink Satellites Leak 30 Times More Radio Interference, Threatening Astronomical Observations"

astron.nl/starlink-satellites/

It's going to be "hilarious" when Starlink messes up the radio sky so badly that radio astronomers can't even use quasars to calibrate GPS anymore. There are so many consequences from all these stupid, cheaply built, disposable satellites. universetoday.com/105160/navig…

This came out a month ago, and I have been sharing it around. However, I don't think I put it up here. This is a lot of fun. Kind of Willy Wonka meets Harry Potter smooth jazz.

How #baleen #whales have adapted over past 50M years
The new study "Into the Blue: Exploring #genetic mechanisms behind the #evolution of #baleenwhales," explores key genetic adaptations of these diverse #whale species around #oceans—giving new insights into risks and opportunities for their survival. The study looks at intriguing mammals—from gigantism of largest blue and fin whales, to diving and migratory abilities of other whales: including humpbacks, minkes & gray.

It's pretty crazy Valve can give a game a Steam Deck Playable rating, give it a special banner on the Steam page to note it's a most-played game on Steam Deck....and then the developer can just add anti-cheat, not enable it and tell people it was never officially supported huh?

- rockstar press hasn’t replied
- their support team just copy pasted the new FAQ entry to me and washed their hands of it
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

the wording of the FAQ regarding the Steam deck also reads a bit like "We don't give a f..."
in reply to Leandro (Cerberus1746)

@cerberus1746 yeah, Valve really need to have an opinion on this. It's a top 10 game on their console platform. They can't be laissez faire on this. They care about their customers in other ways, so this is the same. It really undermines the Steam support levels.
in reply to Bakunin Boys

@bakuninboys @cerberus1746 I have contacted Valve, waiting on a reply, and I will be doing a further article to discuss the situation but have to wait on Valve for a reply (or no reply) and see how long it takes them to update the Steam Deck rating too
in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

Honestly, this is why I use GOG to buy my games whenever possible.

As long as I have the offline installer backed up, I know my game will continue to work as expected.

one more name to add to my list of "no more money from me"...

Bungie
Epic
Microsoft
Rockstar

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

To people who keep saying Microsoft are removing kernel-level stuff, it won't solve the situation, which I already wrote about:

gamingonlinux.com/2024/09/micr…

in reply to Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮

It won't solve it directly, but if win32 games are forced to abandon proprietary kernel anti-cheat in place of some kind of standardized Windows API, then potentially that API could be implemented on Linux/Wine.

A lot of other things need to fall in place for that to happen, though. I've been wondering what Valve were going to do about this for a while, I've speculated that maybe SteamOS could ship with a signed kernel, secure boot, remote attestation and run games in secure VMs?

@seyon I'll just point again, to the article of mine i linked you to, everyone is wrong on this, developers don't need kernel-level to block Linux, it means nothing for us
