Absolutely brilliant campaign (in English) by the Norwegian Consumer Council.

Today’s game is Alan Wake 2. I finished my playthrough of this once again. Every time I finish it I have this kind of empty feeling. Like I’m beating it for the first time.

I first played Alan Wake 1 back in 2016, it was on Game Pass and my dad had rented it from Game Fly when I was little. I loved it. It stuck in my mind. Then come 2023 and the sequel releases. It builds and complements the original in such a way I can’t even begin to describe.

And in a way I guess I feel like I too am trapped in a loop. I never really find myself able to let go of the game. Every once in a while I feel this longing to go back to Bright Falls, go back to Alan; too Return.

To avoid getting too deep and personal about the game though, I played with making a Postcard! I took this one and thought it was funny. Certainly it isn’t a post card I wouldn’t mind getting in the mail.

I also love that There’s also Saga’s Mind Place. I love this. The game takes it, sets it up as this safe space. Then at the very end it rips it away from you as a safe space. As if a metaphor for the way the Dark Place works its way into your head, it works its way into the players own safe space.

To avoid over explaining points I’ve probably already gone over though, I’ll cut today off a little early. I love this game. It’s as close to perfect I feel a game has ever come and it’s left me planning a playthrough of the original (and maybe the final draft again). With the recent news about Remedy being up in there, I at least can say I’m thankful to have gotten a chance to play this. It really is one of my favorite experiences in gaming.

I haven't been able to update my OS for a few weeks now.
I'm getting error messages anytime the system updates in the background, and when I do it manually, it shows following error:

Pulling manifest: ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/aurora:stable error: Preparing import: Fetching manifest: failed to invoke method OpenImage: open /etc/pki/containers/ublue-os.pub: no such file or directory

I already tried fixing it myself by doing a rebase, but it didn't work, no matter what image I chose.

sudo rpm-ostree rebase ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/aurora:latest Pulling manifest: ostree-unverified-registry:ghcr.io/ublue-os/aurora:latest error: Preparing import: Fetching manifest: failed to invoke method OpenImage: open /etc/pki/containers/ublue-os.pub: no such file or directory

sudo bootc switch ghcr.io/ublue-os/aurora:stable error: Switching: Switching (ostree): Preparing import: Fetching manifest: failed to invoke method OpenImage: open /etc/pki/containers/ublue-os.pub: no such file or directory

What next steps should I try? Is there even a fix for it right now?

Edit: I ran sudo cp -a /usr/etc/containers/policy.json /etc/containers, which fixed my problem. Thanks a lot for the help!

I am learning about community-based Linux distros as they are my preferred choice compared to corporate ones. And when I get to Fedora, what I see from the fence is a sofisticated, well-supported OS.

However, seeing that it is sponsored by the Red Hat corporation, the question arises: could Red Hat eventually take control of the project? I suppose the answer comes down to how much weight Red Hat actually has on the development of said distro. From what I know, it has employees dedicated full-time to it.

Let's rephrase the question and say that the Fedora project ditched Red Hat from its development due to some irrepairable decision; how viable would the continuation of the OS development be as compared to, for example, Debian, which is also community-based but, as far as I know, has no such backing from a corporation?

Please, note that, while I am indeed a Debian user, I am not trying in any way to shit on Fedora. I myself am curious to try it out as I have recently arrived to Linux.

Sam Altman says "the DoW displayed a deep respect for safety."

Not 24 hours ago, he seemed to back Anthropic "supporting our warfighters" as long as two "red lines" weren't crossed, though his tepid support was laden with five instances of "I think" and one "mostly."

The two "red lines" in question:

• Domestic mass surveillance
  (presumably, foreign mass surveillance is ok)
• Autonomous weapons
  (likely because they would be held legally liable for misfires)

in other defense news U.S. Army announced secretive 'Darker Eagle' Hyperersonic missile system.

This game has an interesting premise: The Moon's orbit with Earth started to decay about a century ago. Now, the tides are so high, the remnants of humanity are stranded on a mountain peak. The Moon is going to collide with the planet in a few more decades, and there's nothing that anyone can do to stop it.

The gameplay is this:

• Various hostile ghosts are attached to the planet. The player character's job is to help these ghosts pass on with his music. This is done through a QTE system where you press the right button at the right time.
• You get to upgrade the village near the starting area with various materials you find.
• There are a few environmental puzzles around to solve, where you move things around with music.
• Most of the game is based around exploration, and the explorable area changes with time of day.

There are also some control issues that may frustrate you. Maybe 20% of the time, the game thinks you're holding a button longer than you actually are, or it ignored a button you pressed. It's very noticeable, but it can be worked around.

If you play this, take note that I got stuck after the forest area when I interacted with an object up on a cliff I revealed with the Sense ability. I advise keeping to the main mission to avoid any softlock issues.

I've been self hosting traditionally in debian, but I would like to be able to add services easier using docker. As such, I'm looking to move to a container based architecture.

One place I struggle is that I can't seem to find a good container where the default image supports ACME to support Let's encrypt for automatic cert renewal.

For Nginx, I would have you build my container. HAproxy ACME support seems to be a shell script.

Any suggestions?

So, I’ve uploaded some videos on peertube.wtf and I can’t see how large each one is, nor can I sort them. I want to be able to delete large videos if I run out of total quota. This is on version 8.0.1.

I do think a video quota is a good idea, and PeerTube has two quotas, your daily limit, and total limit.

The total limit will fill up eventually if the account is active, and I think a way to see the largest videos you have on your account would help a ton.

The NTSB said it has documented multiple accidents in which first responders worked near wreckage with an undeployed parachute rocket on scene. The alert lists examples including a 2025 Cirrus SR22 crash in Georgia in which the agency said a BPRS rocket activated several minutes after impact while first responders were nearby.

“These agencies will continue to work on increased cooperation and communication to prevent such incidents in the future.”

Now THAT is how you turn a lose into a win on your performance review!

Actions by the president and the Pentagon appeared to drive a wedge between Washington and the tech industry, whose leaders and workers spoke out for the start-up.

Sam Altman, the chief executive of OpenAI, said in a memo to employees this week that “we have long believed that A.I. should not be used for mass surveillance or autonomous lethal weapons.”

More than 100 employees at Google signed a petition calling on the tech giant to “refuse to comply” with the Pentagon on some uses of artificial intelligence in military operations.

And employees at Amazon, Google and Microsoft urged their leaders in a separate open letter on Thursday to “hold the line” against the Pentagon.

Silicon Valley has rallied behind the A.I. start-up Anthropic, which has been embroiled in a dispute with President Trump and the Pentagon over how its technology may be used for military purposes. Dario Amodei, Anthropic’s chief executive, has said he does not want the company’s A.I. to be used to surveil Americans or in autonomous weapons, saying this could “undermine, rather than defend, democratic values.”
