New Blog Alert: Diversity & Inclusion in #ResearchSoftware
urssi.us/blog/2023/10/26/diver…
Some fresh insights from an International Workshop at 2023 IEEE eScience Conference facilitated by the URSSI ‘Charting the course’ project (urssi.us/projects/policy/about…), based at NCSA @ UIUC, and supported by the Sloan Foundation.
The workshop served as a catalyst for a much-needed dialogue about advancing diversity in research software; we've got pieces of a roadmap at this point, albeit with a long way to go.

Here's how to fix METAL GEAR SOLID 2 and 3 on Steam Deck / Linux
For the impatient, it turns out there is a way to make METAL GEAR SOLID 2: Sons of Liberty - Master Collection Version and METAL GEAR SOLID 3: Snake Eater - Master Collection Version actually work on Steam Deck and desktop Linux.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
eh, debatable, it's two clicks (select game, select package) if you have protontricks already installed, three if you have to install protontricks first, plus no digging around on the net and hoping you get an official file and not an infected one.
if you play new releases a lot through steam I'd always recommend having protontricks installed though.

Valve released big new Steam desktop, Steam Deck and SteamVR 2.0 updates
We have a triple update from Valve with SteamVR 2.0 now out of Beta, along with Steam Deck and Steam desktop upgrades so here's all the news.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I just got the new VR update. It completely broke desktop view, I keep getting a boot up error, the black window is still there, and now my library is empty in the VR menu, I have to start the game fom desktop.
And my 6700XT seems to be locked somewhere around 60 fps and I can't figure out why, I can turn my settings all the way down and get the same framerate as when I have auto settings.
I may have to dual boot windows.

Iced Vovo: Defies the binary (cake or biscuit?), sometimes called a tart, politically recommended (PM Rudd)
Many of you already know Karvinen, but let me tell you about Pörri. Pörri is very large and very soft and has unfathomable amounts of silky hair that gets absolutely everywhere. He has no idea why he can't fit on my lap at the same time as Karvinen, or that he's the weight of two small cats. Whenever he climbs onto my lap it's only a matter of time before he flips around, like this. I love him.

I don't use my terminal enough to notice speeds (except launch speeds). That said, it's pretty wild that gnome terminal is so slow that it needs to be frame capped.

Profiles on Mastodon sometimes look blank even when they're not blank 😲
It may happen if the account is very new and/or doesn't have many followers. If you follow a "blank" account, posts made after that follow will appear as normal on the profile.
