Overwatch returns on February 10th with the '2' gone and some massive upgrades
Overwatch is back? Overwatch is back! They're ditching the silly "2", along with adding a whole lot of new heroes and other major upgrades.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
Translation:
We do a rebranding because we fucked up so phenomenally again and please please please, trust us, we won't screw it up once more, just one more Overwatch bro. Also please don't look up that other fan project. ๐ซฃ
I'm waiting for the fan project of bringing back the real Overwatch 1 again to be mature enough. Blizzard is about as trustworthy as any megacorp at this point, meaning not at all.

Climate โfingerprintsโ mark human activity from the top of the atmosphere to the bottom of the ocean
The world is warming. This fact is most often discussed for the Earthโs surface, where we live. But the climate is also changing from the top of the atmosphere to the bottom of the ocean. And there is a clear fingerprint of humanityโs role in causing these changes through greenhouse gas emissions, primarily from burning fossil fuels....
The โwarming stripesโ are one striking and simple way of visually highlighting the resulting variations in Earthโs surface temperature using shades of blue and red for cool and warm, with one stripe per year.

Bees
There are a number of white clover patches blooming
on the lawn I am mowing
but no bees,
and there is a coral reef
off the coast but not much living there
today in Paris it is too hot to survive
yet odd traffic hums,
tourists are wide-eyed, as always
numb in wonder
Art, Art for Godโs sake...
must survive

I moved my #quartz64 NAS to my #minirack !
I designed (using #FreeCAD) a 100% custom shelf for the power supply, the SATA controller and the SBC and 3D printed it.
This is the very first time I design a 3D model! I don't even own a 3D printer! It's definitely not perfect, but I'm happy with the result so far!

Big tech is gambling the economy on AIโฆ and wants a bailout for it
SoSoTheDestroyer : This is my dissection of the AI bubble, including why it's more fragile than most people think it is and why we might be headed for another financial crisis. Oh, and the billionaires want a bailout, because of course they do.
An Astute Summary By One of the Commenters on the Video:
"Remember, that the reason RAM prices have gone up such a large percent is because a massive amount of not-yet-manufactured memory was bought with money that doesn't really exist to be put into GPUs that haven't been made yet, to be installed in data centers that haven't all been built yet, powered by infrastructure that cannot support it sustainably, to satisfy a demand that isn't actually there, in order to generate profits that are mathematically impossible."

FOSS lover 100%, this is constructive criticism from a guy forced into an evilcorp stack at work: FOSS has nothing that can compete with Google and MS yet. I've tried but they're fragmented, non-integrated.
I process hundreds of emails a day and can do a ton of efficient powerful things from a single interface to manage/edits files, meetings, contacts, tasks and more.
The FOSS alternatives: frankly primitive in comparison. Lets catch up!!
