Battlefield 6 will be a unplayable on Linux systems due to the anti-cheat
Just in case you were curious - no you will not be able to play Battlefield 6 on any Linux powered system including SteamOS.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
This is interesting that in Elixir it is preferred to implement constants with function definitions.
Many thanks to @controlfreak for closing down RFFF25 with what chat seemed to reckon was a bit of a barn burner. Outstanding chat banter, comraderie and support everyone!
Tea was spilt and the offending mug remained on stream along with the chief engineer [roll of gaffers tape], we learnt about cymbal restraint, and had a bit of a synthpop sing song to boot.

Lately I've been working on trying to add some speed / performance hacks to #DOSBox. The idea is a bit similar to the old DOSIDLE.EXE / POWER.EXE TSRs: detect when the system is idle or busy-looping, and give up the rest of the CPU cycles until something interesting happens (next frame, next BIOS tick, whatever).
There are a bunch of timing sources on the IBM PC and it's tricky to get them all, but as a proof of concept - here's the delay loop from GORILLA.BAS:
'Rest:
' pauses the program
SUB Rest (t#)
s# = TIMER
t2# = MachSpeed * t# / SPEEDCONST
DO
LOOP UNTIL TIMER - s# > t2#
END SUB
So, it busy-loops until the timer tick. In DOSBox I modified the BIOS INT 1A handler so that if the emulated machine requests the time twice and the same tick comes up, it's probably spinning, so I take away all the remaining cycle budget and sleep instead. And it actually works! Host CPU usage drops significantly - or, if you put it in Turbo Mode, the game plays WAY faster!

Our current president, Gabriel #Boric, signed the #escazu agreement ( Acuerdo Regional sobre el Acceso a la Información, la Participación Pública y el Acceso a la Justicia en Asuntos Ambientales en América Latina y el Caribe ) that is, nothing less than, the agreement that will help enabling all these environmental issues to be addressed in our country.
@sezamoracl hola Sergio! peces escribir en español si quieres 😀
y compartir algún link de tu preferencia! El Acuerdo de Escazú se viene promoviendo desde hace unos 7 años ... y ganando adhesiones. Al final es visto por muchos movimientos sociales como un instrumento más de la financiarización de la naturaleza justo por lo que dices

How to shrink your feed
I posted asking for help on this a bit ago, and while I didn't get any solutions, it did get my brain thinking outside of the box, and I found the solution, its easy, but proof that the UI, especially the settings layout really needs some work around here.
For whatever reason, the necessary setting isn't under the timeline settings, but Social Networks
The key setting here is Followed Content Scope, default is 'Conversations my follows started or commented on', but if'n you change it to 'Only conversations my follows started' if will only show original posts and boosts.
Hopefully this'll help others, I mentioned in a comment on my original post, but that could easily be missed, so here we go. Oh, and if'n you've any tag suggestions, send them my way, and I'll prolly add them.
thank you so much - we really need this kind of thoughts.
