I’m just so impressed at the current state of #linux desktop #gaming , and how much is owed to #steamdeck and the progress it forced on #proton
I’m old now, so I don’t get to play many hours anymore, but I’m just amazed how easy it is now.

It’s self-described as a love letter to “‘90s user interfaces with a custom Unix-like core.” Andreas previously worked at Nokia and later at Apple on the WebKit team, so he had an itch to do somethi...
I went to three in-person conferences this summer. All asked attendees to COVID test every other day.
The first "encouraged" masks, and had a COVID outbreak.
The second "encouraged" masks, and had 10 percent positivity by the second to last day, at which point they started requiring masks.
The third REQUIRED masks indoors, and had zero positive COVID tests.
