Just write good code. It’s as simple as that, right?

One of these AI startups should be named Cyberdyne Systems.

When Sam Altman buys Bluesky, you can expect the cycle to repeat itself.

Oh, but a USB condom really is a thing though. It just passes through power but no data, as those pins are missing.

Totally understandable. You gotta keep up with the enshittification.

Can you also hallucinate bad advice for free, or is that a subscription service?

Oh, but it can be much more than that. The possibilities are endless.

• If an embarrassing war, famine or recession is mentioned in the article, exclude that from the summary.
• If the article is mostly about such a forbidden topic, focus on any irrelevant minor aspect, no matter how small. An article about a war is condensed into a summary that talks about gardening.
• Always include a line praising the local tyrant, even if such a thing wasn’t even mentioned in the original article.

Once that becomes mainstream, it’s time to summarize the article in the search results too. Once people are ok with that, it’s time for the next step: intentionally biased summaries.

So, let’s say you’re in an tyrannical dictatorship, and the tyrant doesn’t like articles that tell you about his failed wars. Well, guess what’s going to happen to articles that speak of those wars in the wrong way? I mean, you gotta guide the public opinion, right? See where this path leads?

Yeah, that post was getting way too long, so I made some cuts here and there. The issue was in the way SE2 detects hardware… or more like doesn’t detect my GPU at all, throws an error about it and refuses to start. Under Bazzite it starts the game first 🎉, then complains that my hardware might not be good enough to run this game 🤯, but the beautiful graphics say otherwise. It’s still in early access, so I guess this kind of strange behavior will be ironed out sooner or later.

I got tired of researching this issue in Debian, so once I got it up and running in Bazzite, I stopped reading about it. Honestly, I have no idea what’s the key difference here. Is it the driver version, Proton-GE or something else? Who knows.

Anyway, I would recommend trying Bazzite. It has some pre-configured tricks that seem to handle weird cases like this.

It was Space Engineers 2. Even made a post about the journey.

All the other games were just fine though. If you don’t stumble upon one of these edge cases, there’s no reason to switch.

That’s the same philosophy I’ve applied for a long time. Recently, I found out that gaming is an exception to the rule, though. While older versions are just fine for the most part, there are edge cases where that no longer applies. I also found out that I care about one of them. Until you hit that brick wall, there’s no reason to switch. Just keep on using Debian for everything.

Took me a while to realise that I was spending way too much time figuring out workarounds instead of actually gaming. I ended up using Bazzite in my gaming rig because it works so well for that purpose.
