Another victory for those who chose to stand and fight instead of folding! The AAUP wins in their case against the administration's unlawful blackmail of the UC system. Congrats AAUP and the UC faculty! I'm a proud UC Davis alum today.
It's worth reading the whole judgement, which in plain speak speak lays out how far outside the law the administration is, and how weak their defense.

Proton 10.0-3 released bringing lots of improvements for gaming on Linux, SteamOS, Steam Machine
Valve released Proton 10.0-3, the latest main stable version of the compatibility layer to run Windows games on Linux / SteamOS machines like Steam Deck.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
š¦ I've improved the implementation behind all the string formatting macros in Rust: println!(), panic!(), format!(), write!(), log::info!(), and so on. (That is, everything based on format_args!().) They will compile a bit faster, use a bit less memory while compiling, result in smaller binaries, and produce more efficient code! š
'Hello world' compiles 3% faster and a few bigger projects like Ripgrep and Cargo compile 1.5% to 2% faster. And those binaries are roughly 2% smaller. š
This change will be available in Rust Nightly tomorrow, and should ship as part of Rust 1.93.0 in January.

Anti-cheat will still be one of the biggest problems for the new Steam Machine
Kernel-level anti-cheat feels like it's everywhere now, and will remain a thorn in Valve's side for the new Steam Machine powered by SteamOS Linux.Liam Dawe (GamingOnLinux)
I fully understand why the common Anti-cheat software Linux not even think about to support. But, is there really no way that Linux may implement a kernel based tool that allows to reliable run a Software in a way that it could be trusted in a way that so its not - (not easy) - to manipulate?
I do not really understand how anti-cheat works but i generally support the idea behind that. Cause I see that this idea may could also benefit software running on out-sourced servers.
