Dune: Awakening to get self-hosted servers, plus they're splitting PvE and PvP
Funcom are finally dealing with some of the wider issues in the MMO Dune: Awakening, which includes expanded self-hosting support and more focus on PvE.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
i love that they are opening self hosting. But:
"Please be advised that the initial setup for this first iteration of the feature is more technical than most other games and requires a computer running Microsoft Windows Pro with Hyper-V in order to run the servers in a Linux Virtual Machine (VM). "
As someone who does not run anything but Linux, this, admittedly seems a bit dumb.
"You must have a windows pro license to run this on Linux"

Privacy Messenger Session Is Staring Down a 90-Day Countdown to Obscurity
With paid developers gone and only volunteers remaining, the app has until July 8 to secure funding or fade into irrelevance.Sourav Rudra (It's FOSS)
It's FOSS reshared this.
Support a few applications, associations..., I do it according to my means, but next to it, you have a life, a burden to pay (rent, car, insurance, food, charges for children...) and then with the current context, everything increases, and it becomes more and more difficult for everyone.
It's sad, but there's a choice to make today and sometimes it's not easy.

Offering Elvish nerdery in return ๐
Trying to translate "keep it secret โ keep it safe" to #Latin, which I know is tricksy. Looking at verbs like servare and conservare, and adjectives for "safe" like tutus/salvus/securus...??
If you can help, I will write your phrase of choice in Tengwar (Elvish script)! Here's a sample of one way I write it โ though I'll do straight lines ๐
I'll write them on a livestream and link image files for you.

#Apple erased in their #maps all the cities, villages, and names in southern #Lebanonโฆ
What do you call it when you digitally erase a population group from an area to make that area empty or homogeneous, or the deliberate attempt to make a national, ethnic, or religious group wholly or partially disappear from the map?โ
[update]No response from Apple yet, itโs unclear if, since, why, when this has been the case. Missing data? error?

This July I will be building a temporary art pavilion in Wicklow, Ireland. It will celebrate the folk traditions and technologies of the plant known in the Irish language as aiteann (aka gorse/furze/whin).
I will be building the pavilion from the wood and thorny leaves of the plant. Aiteann was once used in thatch along with other materials like straw and willow. I have been learning the process from a thatcher named Anthony.
