Steam Hardware@sopuli.xyz•Epic Games Wants Linux Gamers. It's Rebuilding EAC For FortniteEnglish
4·1 day agoOverall it sounds much better to me than windows anti-cheat, but that’s a pretty low bar.
I think all the things you are saying are just claims. As far as I understand it, this will be closed source software that runs as root, so basically it’s just trustmebro, the same as on Windows. I’m not a systemd expert, but seems challenging to fulfill the part where it “only runs when the game runs”.

Technology@beehaw.org•Microsoft defender now supports Linux desktopsEnglish
1·1 day agoNot saying other antivirus software suites are not useful or much better, just only that defender is shit. People think it’s great, but it fails at basic scanning reliability & is reliant on Windows Update actually working ok too, which is a pretty shitty problem to have for security software. My expectation is that if I download malware the binary is not allowed to execute until scanning happened, Defender only sporadically fulfills this on real actively used computers with aging Windows installs.

Linux@programming.dev•Linux kernel devs drop obligatory confession of AI tool usageEnglish
41·1 day agoGiven the same input, a compiler will always produce the same output, down to the last bit. The same cannot be said about AI
LLM’s have something like a temperature setting that is producing the intentional randomness, so that you prompting it is not going around in circles all the time. (if you are running an army of agents this is actually important for usefulness)
Anyway this is not an inherent LLM thing, it can be turned off.

PC Gaming@lemmy.ca•Epic Games Bragged About Beating Steam’s Boot Times So Valve Dropped A PatchEnglish
12·2 days agoBoth of them are using a form of embedded Chromium to display the store, no? Is this really worth competing about then? xD
The Starcraft launcher goes under 1 second on a pentium 1, there.

Ebook Readers and Book Machines@lemmy.zip•2026 Kindles Have Removable Back Panels for Easy Battery Replacement (Finally!)English
1·2 days agoDid Amazon even make kindles that were glued? My own kindle history has only devices that were fairly easy to replace the battery in.

Television@piefed.social•Rogue AI Agent deletes entire show at a major Swedish TV Channel (In Swedish)English
1·3 days agoThis is about not having proper backups, not Ai & the answer to your question is lots of times, “I’m sure my next HDD will never die”.

World News@quokk.au•French Far-Right Leader Marine Le Pen Threatens to Cut Support for Ukraine if Elected
13·3 days agoAsked whether Russia represented the principal security threat to Europe, Le Pen responded: “You know, I can’t read Mr. Putin’s mind and I don’t know his plans.”
Ehm.

Free and Open Source Software@beehaw.org•NetBSD may have found a new role: The AI-free FOSS OSEnglish
81·3 days agoIt’s extraordinarily naive to believe NetBSD is Ai-free & especially that it will remain so. No project with multiple contributors is, some do make an effort to hide it well enough though.

Linux Memes@programming.dev•My Windows is pushing "Download Linux" ads on me nowEnglish
4·3 days agoHe is right in the sense that windows device drivers tend to be more power efficient & as a result a fresh Windows install lasts a longer time, however if we compared Linux with TLP vs. a 6 month old Windows install, I think the results would be interesting.

Linux@lemmy.ml•Linus Torvalds Working On A Hefty Linux Kernel Improvement With Claude CodeEnglish
2·4 days agolots of people freak out actually (not me)
it’s absolutely possible to reduce the number of tries to hits to a manageable level for a distributed botnet that can’t easily be blocked.
This is very hard for me to imagine. Even if the people running the website are incredibly incompetent, they would have to be intentionally moronic about passkey generation for what you are envisioning to be realistic. You are right that passkeys enable brute forcing on a scale regular passwords don’t, but it doesn’t matter, because normal passkeys are just too long for this to be a worry.

Books@lemmy.ml•Publishers Killed the Paperback, Then Blamed ReadersEnglish
2·5 days agoFor me what makes a big difference is that on my ereader I can use ragged right with consistent spacing between the words, reading like that is much easier on the eyes than a printed book where they are trying to over-optimize for space, aka all text is justified & every book has a different font.


This is the least unusual thing that has ever happened during the Trump administration.
