Norman Finkelstein is a good example. Some guy kept copying him in to emails with Epstein which he ignored. Eventually he quoted the testimony of one of Epstein's victims and essentially said he would throttle Epstein to death if she was his own daughter.

    Fully aware of that. I don't disagree Musk's a piece of shit. The whole "appears in the Epstein files x times" phrasing just annoys me because it's meaningless. There is enough disgusting content in the files already which hasn't been investigated without needing to resort to this sort of hysteria.

    This sort of nonsense achieves nothing but making the left look stupid. Have you actually looked at any of the Epstein files that have been released? There are entire articles and slide decks that are completely irrelevant to any illegal activity. You can literally look up "ghostbusters" and get 12 results. "Bucket" has 663 results. What does that tell you? Absolutely nothing.

    Musk is a piece of shit but this post is just low quality engagement bait. Use your brain.

    Yes, it's the same as mitm. I get that it's to avoid gendering the term but it doesn't really roll off the tongue or preserve the existing abbreviation. I've heard the alternatives: machine in the middle, mallory in the middle or, my favourite, Malcolm in the middle.

    The argument from the "it's a trap" article is that the service you are registering to can use attestation to ensure that you are only using passkey managers that they approve.

    I have to admit that I haven't investigated this thoroughly myself but if the protocol can be abused in that way then your only choice really would be not to use the service. If it is related to banking or government services then you may not have much of a choice.

    We do not officially support Linux and we cannot commit to having support for launch. We are still working on Official Linux Proton compatibility.

    This official stance has not changed since pre-release.

    We admit there was a mistake in communication by our CM which was unfortunetly screenshotted in our Discord and then posted on the linux Reddit, when the official stance has always been 'we are working on proton compatibility'.

    Any previous Alpha/Beta test where Linux worked was by happen stance, which led to some users discuss the game as being Linux compatible. However, as previously stated - we do not yet officially support Linux and we are still working on our proton support for WARDOGS. We will update our stance once we have this confirmed. That is our goal.

    We cannot commit to having Linux support for our Early Access launch. So please, refund the game if you mistakenly bought it thinking you would be able to run Linux via Proton on September 10th. We hope to have you back as soon as we can confirm official compatibility.

    We know this is not what you want to hear... but the continued demand for Linux has been heard and it is still in our sights. Thankyou.

     

    Head tracking is a gamechanger for flying or driving games. I've used opentrack successfully with Star Citizen via lutris but have been struggling to get it working for steam games. LookPilot seems to work well and is fairly cheap but isn't FOSS. I know there are loads of other alternatives so I'm wondering what have you found that works well?

     

    The increased flexibility to work remotely has been liberating in many ways for workers however it also poses challenges when it comes to organizing.

    I've found that the primary means of communication between remote workers is owned by the company, for example slack and teams. This leads to a reluctance to discuss unionization due to the perceived threat of the company eavesdropping and taking action against them.

    There are also less opportunities for the kinds of informal conversations that lead to solidarity and organizing that would usually happen over lunch or after work at the bar or pub.

    What challenges have you faced in organising remote workers and what solutions have you found?
