I convinced myself that manjaro is less stable than fedora. But not completely. It depends on the device and what is installed on it.

For some reason, I was able to run Manjaro on my hp laptop without issues for a long time. However my brother on his Lenovo laptop, the manjaro update just killed itself after 2 months. And this always after some months the updater would not work anymore.

I then installed Fedora on his laptop, and damn that thing stayed up and running for 2y now. Even after major system update, never broke, and package install always worked, at least when the tutorials are up to date on special things.

Like installing video codecs, I had to do another command which was not mentioned on the fedora docs, in order to switch from ffmpeg libre to ffmpeg. And then the rest of the install commands would work.

 

The Steam winter sales are here, up to the 4rth of January.

What game did you enjoy playing and want to share with the community, and why?

It's like a mini (or a bit larger) review for the people in the community to discover your loved game, and get it for a smaller price. Also remember to share a link to the store page to help people find the game.

The game must be on sale currently and must not be a free to play game, or what would be point of this post.

The release date doesn't matter. Neither the sale amount. If you enjoyed the game, it should be shared.

You can put the game type/tags at the beginning of your comment if you wish so, it may help other people.

Please a single game per comment if you post a review.

I'll start in the comments.

J'ai quelques idées...

Comme il est indiqué sur les infos du site, d'après eux ils se sont séparés du figaro, et bien sûr comme l'URL du site est legorafi = lefigaro.

Ce serait donc un site exagéré parodique du figaro ?

Mais je ne sais même pas pourquoi le site existe encore... Je suppose il y a toujours des gens pour perdre leur temps à lire des articles inutiles...

(si l'objectif est de faire quelque chose de marrant, ca ne me fait pas rire des gens qui se font tirer dessus ou qq qui se lamente et fracasse la tête contre un mur...)

C'est quoi cet article de bouse. Elle est où leur source ? C'est la rédaction leur source ?

Je ne peux rien trouver comme source à cet article.

Donc sans source ou preuve que cet article est factuel, cet article est faux et une invention du journal qui est sûrement m*ique dans ce cas.

Si c'est du sarcasme ou je ne sais quoi, c'est totalement raté et nul. Ça paraît trop gros pour être vrai, ce qui pe s'en rapprocher, mais ce n'est pas du tout une bonne chose de propager de telles fausses infos.

Vu les autres articles de la rédaction, le journal est de la bouse.

Nah, the game is utter trash not the bugs. Let's look at 3 games very hyped :

  • Redfall : game had game breaking bugs and performance issues at launch. Gameplay was bad. No one played it.

  • Gollum : game had game breaking bugs and performance issues at launch. Gameplay was destroyed due to bugs. The studio closed their gaming branch.

  • Starfield : very hiped, bought by a lot of people, the game looks like 2010-15 game with some little 2023 enhancements...

Redfall and Gollum were failures. High budget failures. They most likely layed off people.

Starfield : Microsoft layed off people at the start of the year https://www.polygon.com/23561210/microsoft-layoffs-xbox-bethesda-halo-infinite-343-industries for who knows why. The game got delayed, and then it gets out very mixed due to bad exploration gameplay and no love put into population design (population characters look like 2010 or even worse).

All of these 3 games have been very hyped, with a high price, but none of their failure have anything to do with gamers "fault" and "opinion". It's all on the studios fault on not delivering something good.

The issue is that even the same brand can have multiple USB fingerprint scanners, which may not all work.

From a 4y old reddit thread some person found a fingerprint scanner which worked, but some other person who had a similar one didn't get it ot work.

The article is about Kyutai, a French AI lab with an objective to compete with chatgpt and others with full open source (research papers, models, and training data).

They are aiming to also include the capability to use sound, image, etc... (according to this article (French) https://www.clubic.com/actualite-509350-intelligence-artificielle-xavier-niel-free-et-l-ancien-pdg-de-google-lancent-kyutai-un-concurrent-europeen-a-openai.html )

The post article also talks about some French context.

 

I watched a Warframe (game) YouTube video on the Steam integrated browser, without beeing connected to my account and Holly s* it was horrible.

In a 14 minutes video, I got 5 ads. 1 (or more skippable once) at the beginning, 1 during the first half of the video, 2 during the second half, and 1 at the end.

All were skippable after 5 sec.

2 were close together at about 1 min interval during the second half of the video.

But that is not the only issue. 4 of those ads (not the last one at the end), were Israeli hate/war anti-hamas propaganda.

I consider these ads horrible and they should not be allowed in my opinion.

 

ECH (encrypted client hello) is going or get enabled by default (already existed in a hidden setting) with version 118.

This page about the version explains a bit better ECH https://support.mozilla.org/fr/kb/understand-encrypted-client-hello

Tho it is still a bit confusing.

From what I understand there is the DNS query > the dns servers sends back an IP. This DNS query can be encrypted with DoH (or DoT?, it seems only DoH from the post).

Then there is a handshake with the website where the website informations can be leaked, and that can be encrypted by ECH (if the website supports it).

Then after that there is a tls connexion established between the website and the user.

The part where I'm confused is : can ECH be used without DoH? If yes that would mean that I can use a DoH capable software and not have to configure it into Firefox? (ex: Nextdns + yogadns)
