Flaky

I dunno about non-driver anti-cheats like EAC but Genshin Impact's kernel-level anti-cheat has been used to aid ransomware. Driver-level anti-cheat is certainly malware, that has been settled since Sony-BMG.

I used it after getting frustrated with the AUR. Never looked back unless the package wasn't on Flatpak or had an AppImage.

EmuDeck is already implementing replacements on Switch and is looking at other 3DS emulators. They won't uninstall Yuzu from your Deck, but likely won't default to using them if they're installed. You might have to take a few extra steps with ES-DE or SRM.

WhatsApp, pretty much.

I feel the Arch devs and TUs can be quite helpful, but the users spreading the gospel can be the opposite sometimes. I remember a user saying Arch won't implement PackageKit because it was shit, but the actual reason from a developer was that PackageKit doesn't really work with rolling release distributions like Arch.

There's a theory going round that the PS5 is going to be that "breakout box" for a PC-based PSVR2 setup. I'm not sure if Sony wants to spend that much on getting people out of their ecosystem when it'd be better to have their own solution, or as Oculus had done, let Valve port Steam Link to their platform. This might be the most likely situation, as it gives access to SteamVR in a way that doesn't require as much R&D from Sony.

That being said, I would love to have a native PCVR setup (even if it means piping a video through a wire as Oculus does to maintain compatibility with even NVIDIA) and if Sony goes that way somehow, I'll be happy.

It might be "just USB-C" but it also does things outside of the standard. It asks for a set amount of power not part of the USB-C standard, actually it might have implemented VirtualLink which is considered a dead standard. Not to mention that NVIDIA GPUs also stopped having a USB-C port.

iVRy, who has hacked the PSVR1 to support PC, is in the process of hacking the PSVR2 and even they state that Sony's solution might be just streaming to the headset because of the issues with implementing direct USB-C support. There might be wired streaming (similar to Oculus), though it's still early days.

I get the hype (I have the headset myself) but I'm definitely going to temper my expectations until Sony releases more info on it.

I'd imagine it'll work through something like Steam Link like the Quest line of headsets do. Which is still nice, but that means for me trying to invest in networking gear that may or may not work. 😩

(and I've tried powerline, I've gone through three of those things, they all have a habit of disconnecting unless I ping my router. Someone on Twitter suggested that I rewire my entire house as if I can afford to do that. 😐)

Jay Graber is the CEO, dunno about the investors but I don't care tbh. If Bluesky does go to shit, the protocol lets me move away without losing my data.

Bluesky's development has been pretty democratic, moreso than Mastodon where one guy basically leads the entire trajectory of the fediverse (at least from a mainstream perspective) from what I heard.

As for Jack, hasn't been on Bluesky for a while now - he prefers Nostr. Even though he's on the board, he's not attended any meetings nor has he dictated how the platform should go. He just threw money at it and ran after the community didn't take him seriously.

This all implies Bluesky can be considered a massive tech corp (which it honestly isn't even with investors, definitely not compared to Meta, or even Mozilla at this point), and can even be monetised.

In the event that they do attempt that, users can move to a different PDS and not lose any of their data - that's how AT was built. While on AP, it's dependent on if the software powering the account supports migration, and even then I've not seen an implementation that carries over all of the user's data (Mastodon only does followers/following, Lemmy has no migration whatsoever). That's not to say it's impossible, but I've not seen it happen.

Can +1 for Herman Miller (and maybe mesh chairs in general), however I went for the Cosm instead. It's supposed to be a "relaxation" chair in comparison to their Aeron but the taller back on the Cosm I tried was much more suitable for me than a regular Aeron.

That being said, OP, look up where you're able to try the chairs once you've got some recommendations. Not a good idea to go in blind. For Herman Miller, John Lewis is a good retailer in the UK that has their chairs on display.
