Hey, thanks for pointing me directly to it. I wonder why there is so much noise about AI face detection when the core issue seems to be that pride is banned in the first place (and this is one way they want to enforce it).

The amount of folks I see use Opera GX "gaming browser" because some influencer said so...

Is banning Pride events as a whole legal under EU law?

I dual booted Ubuntu originally, but I never used it. Had to really make the jump when I installed Arch on my desktop in ~2020 because I heard it would run games better. I've stayed 100% on Linux since! After trying quite a few distros (Fedora, Debian, EndeavourOS, Garuda, Archcraft, more I'm forgetting) I have finally settled on NixOS... it's been over a year and I still haven't switched, that's gotta be worth something :)

Have you had a bad experience with canned peaches? I volunteered at a food bank a while back and we each had our station and gave out what people asked from that category (types of bread, fruits, etc). I don't recall seeing canned peaches or folks' reaction to them, but I'll be on the lookout next time!

Darn. I recall reading good articles from some of these publications in the past. Shame...

This article reads like satire... it's sentence after sentence of "and I did it using one of the [best office chairs]" which is a link to some review by themselves. Every bit mentioned had an affiliate link and there wasn't an actual review of what the experience (software, setup, visual fidelity) is like??

Ouch, that sucks yeah. Guess I got lucky with the games my friends like to play. Only one is I guess Valorant, but I don't engage with that one anyways. Guess you're stuck on the dual boot until devs of these games start ticking the Proton support box :P

I'd like to read about this, but I don't see a URL? Is it just this image?

What games keep you on Windows? Besides a few anticheat-enabled ones which choose not to support it, basically everything works fine. I game (and work in gamedev!) 100% on Linux.

I think this pinpointa what makes configuring Linux so much fun for me. It's one little problem/challenge after the next, it never prevents me from working but it does always give me something to work toward. Currenrly working on a notification display for my bar, and I hope it will be just as satisfying in the end as when I got my mouse to animate with movements or when I got my config to set my wallpapers correctly no matter the host.

The article is good, however I'd really appreciate having fedi-style content warnings on AI-generated images. I don't interact with mainstream social mediums so I generally do not see it, however in the thumbnail and contents of the article there are some quite disturbing images and videos that I'd have chosen not to see (description is enough) given the choice...
