Ok, has anyone got DCS World on VR working on Linux? I really want to ditch my Windows gaming machine, I already don't use it for anything serious, but this is getting ridiculous.

Technically it is meaningful, fair use is for specifically things that don't replace the original in function.

I guess that's how they make a lot of money, selling their own Confluence plugin.

I also do have a degree in mech eng and electrics as well. Electrics are much, much simpler, the reason EVs have a reputation for being hard to service is that they are new and chock full of online bullshit, which is true of new ICE cars as well. If it was just the battery and the motors, it's incredibly simple.

Will a new anything work if the manufacturer kills off the entirely unnecessarily forced network features?

This is not an EV problem, this is an MBA grifting problem.

Nah, it's I guess jargon at this point, but it really just means to make up your own crypto algos.

It is a US thing, and it's a thing European tourists are weirded out over.

Just to be clear, I am in love with statistics and especially generative algos, and have written papers on it before ChatGPT was a thing.

I just hate that one company made a chatbot with it and now the whole world is cargo culting around it.

Cue the pivot to some ridiculous buzz tech like AI in the near future, then being acquired and promptly abandoned by some big corp.

Either somewhere on the far left, and we'll see some actual breakthrough with major impact in the future which actually gets hyped, or on the far right and it already happened, it was just too niche for anyone other than a specific small group to notice.

That, and society does not like it when you do so, and the more you get off the beaten path, the harder it gets.

I am familiar with them, but I use KDE btw.
