My opinion on this is that they’re already getting money from ads

Are they? With so many people, especially here on Lemmy, willing to go hard to adblock plus a steadfast refusal to pay for YT Premium I’d guess that most smaller YT Content Creators are getting very little ad revenue. Without Merch sales and Patreon how are they supposed to get any money to support themselves?

I understand your point about being a walking billboard and I feel the same way but these days it just feels like no one wants to contribute in any way to help support small time creators.

Serie A are a bunch of greedy cunt bags trying to re-arrange how the Internet works to try and protect their precious footy matches. Fuck 'em.

The way I understand it is that every anticheat needs to be overhauled as they can no longer tap into the kernel/get kernel access.

Yes, if we assume that various institutions (cough cough looking at you EU) allow MS to remove kernel access.

So the anticheat has to eun in userspace.

VSB-E isn’t really “user space” but your point about the kernel is valid.

hich is why anticheat should

The word “should” is doing some heavy lifting in that sentence. Even if it COULD that doesn’t mean devs will allow it nor does it mean that existing games will get updated on EITHER platform. Removing a kernel level anti-cheat could easily be the death of some older games on Windows as the owner simply doesn’t want to put the money into making it work.

I’m honestly not too sure how possible it is to make VSB-E work on *nix either, since it appears to use Microsoft Hyper-V technologies at its core and those wouldn’t be available in *nix. That means that we’d be back to Game Devs having to specifically write anti-cheat for *nix…which is something they can already do if they want.

VSB-E is interesting but I’m not convinced its going to do anything for Linux Gaming at all. Hopefully I am wrong. :)

Perhaps I’m being dense but how do you see this helping Linux Gaming?

Even assuming that VBS-E allows Game Devs to shift their current kernel based anti-cheat over to it there’s no guarantee that Linux will get a compatible VBS-E module nor that Game Devs would allow its use.

I guess I see it as: If a Game Dev does this (use VBS-E) AND Linux gets a compatible module AND Game Devs allow its use THEN newer games may not have the same problem with anti-cheat as older ones.

Due to planned virtualisation in Windows

I must have missed something. What are you referencing with this comment?

Be careful with Home Assistant. Once you board that train it’s near impossible to get off!

For so many of my use cases the Echo and Echo Show products by Amazon are exactly what is needed. For instance in the living my full sized echo is ideal for voice commands and playing music but in my bedroom a Show 5 / 8 is what you want in order to see the time, play music, and have wakeup alarms. I wish I could either find a company building a generic version of them or find a way to reload them to work with HA instead of Amazon. :/

I’d buy Android tablets and run the HA Companion App on them but it still doesn’t have wakeword support.

I could build a small fleet of rPIs in touch screen cases but even then you have to bolt on a microphone and speakers so they still wouldn’t have a finished / polished look.

I have no problem spending a reasonable, or even maybe unreasonable, amount of money to get a nice looking Wyoming Satellite but I’ll be darned if I can figure out HOW. I’m actually kind of astonished that no over-seas manufacturer has started making something like a gutted Echo / Echo Show that you can slide a raspberry pi board into.

This is from the old Mosh Girl meme.

I was watching this earlier and got about halfway through before the power went out. I spent the next 90 minutes before it came back on trying to imagine a style of these that would look good on the south side of my house.

I didn’t come up with anything that my wife would let me install so I guess I’m going to stick with my plan of automated shades or drapes.

All 3 dish washer videos.

What are you referring to when you say "when can we use the weather forecast on our dashboards? "

I’ve probably got the simplest and most “Out of the Box” dashboard stuff going on you can imagine and I’ve got forecast data showing with automations that run against it. What am I missing?

Big truth right there.

Today you can use an inline “RunAs” command such as "runas /user:Administrator “powershell.exe -executionpolicy bypass -command Set-Location "$PWD"; .\install.ps1”

Or you could use Gsudo.

Additionally, Sudo will soon be available in Win11.

It is much, much stronger than the response from, for example, the January 6th insurrection.

Jan6 was a very short duration one-off event while the Campus Protests have been ongoing, and escalating, for months now. The difference in response is easily explained by those two facts alone. As an example The LE response on Inauguration Day clearly shows the difference between “One Time” and “Ongoing”.

…on the military industrial complex apparatus.

AKA the largest Federally Funded jobs program in the United States.

Free Palestine. 🇵🇸

Agree!

formed by the the US

Nope. You can blame Britain for that.

In fact nearly every fucked up situation in the Middle East was created by the British. They started multiple shit storms with bone headed border decisions and then conveniently dipped out after WWII without cleaning up their messes.

Another example would be the India / Pakistan problem.

What did you to move the curtains?

IIRC, The 6502c is still in production.

Sure but in the article he says that he hadn’t even heard of it until some friends mentioned it “last month”, which would have been March of 2024. Taking a few weeks to feel it out is one thing but to have not even know it existed until last month is wild.

How is it that Cory Doctorow hadn’t hear of Kagi until March of 2024? It’s been widely discussed in tech spaces for quite a while now!

What happened to Hanlon’s Razor?

Rossman happened. He has videos that need watched.
