Yeah, that's why I'd like some more insight.

The initial headline doesn't exactly pass a sniff test... It's possible, but unlikely.

If ~34,000 were added in the last year, that means over 25% of Steam's library of ~114,000 was added in the last year...

If only 1/5 of those were using generative AI, why was there such a massive increase over the last year?

Has Steam made it easier for cash grabs, or... it just doesn't make a lot of sense without more information

How many of the ~6,818 titles now disclosing generative AI use were already on Steam in 2024?

I.E. are a lot of these just games that had already been released, updating their disclosure statements based on Valve's new rules?

The article says 1/5 games released this year use it. I'm not sure if ~34,000 games have released on Steam in the last year

I get wanting to move away from "master," but why in the world didn't we use "trunk"

It was already a standard name, and it fits "branches," etc.

There's a comedy band called Lonely Island that takes this thought to the extreme

Have you seen https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/wat

ARM isn't plug-and-play like x86 (n.b. it could be, but no one does it outside of servers)

You have to write a big JSON like file, called a DeviceTree, that describes exactly what is in the computer

Unless Apple decides to support Hackintoshes, their OS won't have devicetrees for other devices.

You might be able to make your own and get the OS to read it, but it still has to be for a specific machine rather than generic like before

It supposedly has the 4 buttons as well, so I hope the touchscreen is just extra...

I have one preordered, but I went with that one for the heart rate monitoring

They also claim their continuation of PebbleOS will run on the old models

Depending on how you had it installed, Alpaca split support in the Flatpaks.

If you want AMD support, you need to install com.jeffser.Alpaca.Plugins.AMD

Microsoft seems to have deleted all their old blog posts around it (at least all the links to their responses 404 now), but...

In 2011, they were going to require it to be enabled for all products if they wanted to announce Windows 8 support.

After huge backlash, they changed it to allow motherboard companies to disable it for X years (since I can't find the original, I can't say the exact length of time)

But their original goal was for it to never be allowed to be disabled

postmarketos has builds for the 4/5, and Fairphone has already submitted devicetree files for the 6 to the mainline Linux kernel: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pm/20250625-sm7635-fp6-initial-v1-12-d9cd322eac1b@fairphone.com/

I'm surprised at using ntfs-3g these days, but one major difference is that ntfs-3g uses FUSE in userspace.

Paragon has an in-kernel driver that is much faster, although I would expect your distro already includes it.

You can check with something like cat /boot/config-* | grep NTFS3_FS

I never really looked into what they were doing with KPTI.

Assuming it's accurate, that first one is a much better technical description, even if it was intended to spell FUCKWIT

Ah. That makes sense, then. Thanks!

Any idea why that's needed when Organic Maps doesn't?

My understanding is this is an early fork?

I like a lot of things about Valve, but it has never felt like the dock is well supported.

This new firmware is the first one that outputs HDMI to my TV, and it breaks DP for you...

Did that, did a lot of that. There wasn't any doctor here who could shine my eyes. Not even for 20 menthol cools. Was anything you said true?

For unplayable, Rocket League had very good Linux and macos native builds. Epic required them to delete support for those operating systems as part of the acquisition of Psyonix

nvtop, while it sounds like it's nvidia, is brand agnostic It actually stands for "neat videocard top"

It'll show per process usage of memory and compute usage on most GPUs

When they buy publishers, they had them actively remove Linux support, such as Rocket League
