From the top menu: Browse -> Discounts & Events; check the Special Events section on the Discounts & Events page. I had to click the > a couple of times to see this event.

it’s a shocking new low in how badly modern games hold your hand, which is in stark contrast to its “mature adult game for adults” marketing

Maybe they’re assuming adults have limited time for games and don’t want to spend it figuring stuff out.

Huang was repeating OpenAI’s claim about the new model:

OpenAI on Thursday released GPT-6 Astra, which president Greg Brockman called a “generational leap” and said could eventually be seen as the arrival of artificial general intelligence, or AGI.

You might also get to see incorrect depictions of animals from our time that are extinct in the future, depending on how much information is lost between now and then.

If JXL is good for lossless, it’ll probably AVIF replacing JPEG and JXL replacing PNG.

Mullvad’s wikipedia page has a section on it: Donation to the Örebro Party.

I vaguely remember hearing about that, but when I searched the community to see what other people use the first link I found was archive.is. Replacing that archive doesn’t really seem to have taken off.

I said somewhere else that giving money to a distro won’t even have an ROI, but I didn’t know about this. If the distro is promoting their product that’s a whole other thing.

The worst part is, giving money to a Linux distro isn’t likely to have any real return on investment, so why is it even worth a risk of backlash?

Nonetheless, it seems the company has sacrificed a moral position for a “mission-driven” position. In the same message to staff, Faugno says “the scale and growth of [Omarchy’s] use among our customers is significant - Omarchy has grown to be the second most used Linux distribution among 1Password users."

I didn’t know Omarchy existed until, like, yesterday, so this is surprising. Do 1Password users just tend not to use Linux, so second place isn’t many users?

The translation later is called Rosetta 2 (Rosetta 1 having been for the PowerPC to Intel transition), and it looks like it’s mostly going away next year, so buying a Mac with the intention of using it would probably be a bad idea at this point.

Defo would recommend changing your email though. Takes a while to do all your accounts but once it’s done you’re free! Feels good.

And if you move to provider that will let you use your own domain, you won’t need to update your accounts next time you switch.

The site is most hostile to visitors who aren’t logged in, and the users who comment probably mainly visit the site while logged in.

Most streamers at least have annual subscriptions at a discount. Netflix is month-to-month only, which is just asking for churn.

The $5B is the conditional bit:

The agreement includes a payment of approximately $18 billion, which can be used to fund youth online safety initiatives, among other state priorities. The payment will be distributed in annual installments over a 10-year period. Participating states will receive approximately 70% (approximately $12.7 billion) of the allocated payment over the decade. The remaining 30% (approximately $5.3 billion) will be released only after two specific conditions are met.

1. YouTube and TikTok implement a one-hour Daily Limit, Night Mode, and age assurance measures.
2. YouTube and TikTok each pay an amount matching the 30% figure, with half of the remaining funds tied to YouTube’s payment and half tied to TikTok’s.

And this gist of the article is that a lot of that would violate the First Amendment if the government forced Meta to do it, and putting it in a settlement instead of a law and making it an “industry standard” is just a way for the government to get around that.

Their list of “patrons” is here, and Mozilla and Framework aren’t on it.

Framework is not mentioned there. The list of patrons doesn’t mention Framework either.

In a post on the Microsoft 365 Admin portal (I am glad it’s not renamed yet), the company notes that “Microsoft 365 Roadmap is becoming the AI at Work Roadmap,” as it “centralizes AI-powered innovation tracking without changing access or workflows.”

They didn’t rename a product. They renamed a roadmap to make it more general. That’s not that bad; certainly nothing worth doomposting about.

And probably age verification so Meta can tell who’s a minor.
