If JXL is good for lossless, it’ll probably AVIF replacing JPEG and JXL replacing PNG.

Mullvad’s wikipedia page has a section on it: Donation to the Örebro Party.

It’s releasing today so this is “release state”. It’s supported in NBA 2K27, which releases tomorrow.

I vaguely remember hearing about that, but when I searched the community to see what other people use the first link I found was archive.is. Replacing that archive doesn’t really seem to have taken off.

I said somewhere else that giving money to a distro won’t even have an ROI, but I didn’t know about this. If the distro is promoting their product that’s a whole other thing.

The worst part is, giving money to a Linux distro isn’t likely to have any real return on investment, so why is it even worth a risk of backlash?

Nonetheless, it seems the company has sacrificed a moral position for a “mission-driven” position. In the same message to staff, Faugno says “the scale and growth of [Omarchy’s] use among our customers is significant - Omarchy has grown to be the second most used Linux distribution among 1Password users."

I didn’t know Omarchy existed until, like, yesterday, so this is surprising. Do 1Password users just tend not to use Linux, so second place isn’t many users?

Your account is three years old and as of right now a third of the comments you’ve ever made are on this one post.

The translation later is called Rosetta 2 (Rosetta 1 having been for the PowerPC to Intel transition), and it looks like it’s mostly going away next year, so buying a Mac with the intention of using it would probably be a bad idea at this point.

Defo would recommend changing your email though. Takes a while to do all your accounts but once it’s done you’re free! Feels good.

And if you move to provider that will let you use your own domain, you won’t need to update your accounts next time you switch.

The site is most hostile to visitors who aren’t logged in, and the users who comment probably mainly visit the site while logged in.

Most streamers at least have annual subscriptions at a discount. Netflix is month-to-month only, which is just asking for churn.

Nothing about the suite talks to a remote server, and none of it needs an internet connection to work.

Nitpick: I’m pretty sure my Windows copy of LibreOffice has an update checker that talks to a remote server. On Bazzite the flatpak gets auto-updated, so if flatpak LO has its own update checker I’ve never seen it.

The $5B is the conditional bit:

The agreement includes a payment of approximately $18 billion, which can be used to fund youth online safety initiatives, among other state priorities. The payment will be distributed in annual installments over a 10-year period. Participating states will receive approximately 70% (approximately $12.7 billion) of the allocated payment over the decade. The remaining 30% (approximately $5.3 billion) will be released only after two specific conditions are met.

1. YouTube and TikTok implement a one-hour Daily Limit, Night Mode, and age assurance measures.
2. YouTube and TikTok each pay an amount matching the 30% figure, with half of the remaining funds tied to YouTube’s payment and half tied to TikTok’s.

And this gist of the article is that a lot of that would violate the First Amendment if the government forced Meta to do it, and putting it in a settlement instead of a law and making it an “industry standard” is just a way for the government to get around that.

In a post on the Microsoft 365 Admin portal (I am glad it’s not renamed yet), the company notes that “Microsoft 365 Roadmap is becoming the AI at Work Roadmap,” as it “centralizes AI-powered innovation tracking without changing access or workflows.”

They didn’t rename a product. They renamed a roadmap to make it more general. That’s not that bad; certainly nothing worth doomposting about.

And probably age verification so Meta can tell who’s a minor.

Move fast and break things

No, not like that!

Edit: it cost $20 to join?! I’m out

They probably need the money to pay for their AI-based “fact-checking”:

A new and notable feature is the automated fact-checking tool, a Gemini-based “veracity engine for real-time analysis” (“Vera” for short), which runs on every tweet.

Using a technology that’s known for making shit up, for fact-checking, is so dumb, but it will probably bring in investors because AI.

If there’s nothing to watch then don’t subscribe to four different services. Streaming gives you more say in which channels/services you get than cable does.
