Not sure if the following has been part of information and discussion around here. Apparently there are several Nostr relays that bridge, with or without asking for permission, profiles to somewhere else.
Actually at least over here I also could create a positive list, restricting access to only predefined instances.
That said, the "asking for permission" is if some instance simply mirrors profiles "without asking for permission" each profile or instance it pretends to mirror or duplicate. This in any case is basically about good manners, not technical possibilities.
I didn't dig into some apparent nostr discussion itself but saw the possibility to register a profile for mirroring it. Well, actually the only way this could happen in a correct respectful manner is that a profile follows an account that than interpretates that following as a request or permission to be mirrored.
Not interested in supporting bluesky or disrespectful folks in any way so I guess this list comes kinda preemptive handy. 👍

Airships: Lost Flotilla is a steampunk themed auto-shooter just released from David Stark, an offshoot of their other game Airships: Conquer the Skies and it's simply great.
complicado estar com la misma intensidad en los dos mundos. Com en ido de que este es el lugar y de que no podemos irnos de las redes sociales hegemomicas sin traer a la mayoría de la gente. Abrazos!
It's a good article, though it probably resonates already to the people who would read my feed. The more useful part of it is that it's a good article to send the "moderate" people in your life, who are letting literal nazis take over this country quietly.
The Nexus team continue building up their newer cross-platform open source Nexus Mods App that will eventually replace Vortex. Version 0.7.2 was released recently further expanding what you can do with it.

Necesse is an impressive open-world base-building survival and adventure game from developer Fair Games ApS, with a big update out now and you can try it free this weekend. There's also a 35% discount if you want to keep it.
Sad news for NVIDIA GPU owners on Linux who want to play FINAL FANTASY VII REBIRTH, which just released on Steam yesterday as it appears broken. Works on Linux for those with an AMD GPU like the Steam Deck though.
meanwhile, I can't even launch the game with Intel Arc. *sign* (I know Arc GPUs on Linux are not yet up-to-par with Windows drivers, but still annoying, there needs to be another player in the GPU game imo)
Recent updates to THE FINALS ended up breaking it on Linux / Steam Deck, but Valve have pushed out a new update to Proton Hotfix to get it working again.

I am from the school VLC is from (it was a student project !) and I find fun that the initial private joke with the construction cone remains. (I am not sure if this is cool or scaring that it remains as logo !)
I also find very cool that is went world famous :o (Even if I think that nowadays the main devs are not from the school anymore, still cool ! believe in your dreams students !)
This week, as I start focusing on my tenure file, I have been asking what the point is of being a professor in the tenure system. I reflected on this Sunday on a ride out to a community pancake breakfast.
What’s so important that the people of a democracy would offer someone the potential of long term job security and intellectual freedom (however precarious), even at times of hardship and deprivation? And what kind of promise could ever be equal to that extraordinary trust? #OutdoorMoments
One part of the job of a professor is to be a fearless steward of human knowledge and wisdom into the future- to hold in trust what humanity has learned, to preserve and advance it (even when unpopular) so the next generation can receive from us the relay of the ages into whatever futures they will face.
Because that story of collective understanding has very real power, it is always under threat, from the emperors who burned my Christian forebears and the priests who burned the Mayan archives of my ancestors to the politicians who threaten scientists today.
And yet the quest for truth persists, thanks to both visible and un-acknowledged courage of a thousand thousand thousand people over the ages, including my own many mentors.
Will I get tenure? That’s only partly up to me. But whatever the outcome of this process, I have irrevocably joined hands with the cloud of witnesses in the human search for truth. And I plan to be there to advance and protect this endeavor whatever may come. ❤

Hi everyone,
the Nextcloud development team is in the process of preparing the upcoming major release v31.
We just wanted to let you know that we are closing in on the version 31 release of Nextcloud and if you have so…
Valve updated Proton Experimental for January 22nd with a bunch more fixes for gamers on Linux, SteamOS and Steam Deck. Like the Battle.net update issue that came up recently that was fixed in a recent GE-Proton update too
the battle.net fixes are welcome. It's been very frustrating last couple of weeks as every game update starts failing till you faff around with lutris runtimes till one works.
My article on the Steam Deck dropping hard in the Steam global top sellers list was updated, to note Valve have corrected the list. The Steam Deck was 4th, not 47th last week, as the global chart originally said: gamingonlinux.com/2025/01/stea…
Valve's Steam Deck with SteamOS has been consistently in the top sales charts on Steam since release, but recently it dropped down rather hard following the Nintendo Switch 2 announcement.
