Boost Functionality for true Neapolitan Pizza

Oooh, that's gonna piss someone in the EU off if the EU has it as a protected geographical indicator.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ooni_(company)

Ooni is an outdoor pizza oven company based in Edinburgh, Scotland.

For geographical indications (GIs), which protect distinctive products from a certain region and apply primarily to agricultural products, the UK and the EU agreed to protect each other’s GIs that existed as of December 31, 2020, under each side’s own GI scheme.

The EU protects True Neapolitan Pizza: new regulation and certifications

Authentic Neapolitan pizza is now protected in the EU by the geographical certification "STG" (or "TSG", traditional specialty guaranteed). The European Union, with Regulation 2022/2313 accepted the request sent by Italy to protect the name and methods of preparation of one of the main symbols of Made in Italy in the world.

With this decision, therefore, no one will be able to use the name "Pizza Napoletana" (or "Neapolitan Pizza") unless accompanied by the wording STG.

New rules for the protection of the authentic Neapolitan pizza

To avoid imitations or improvised interpretations of Neapolitan Pizza, the EU has expressed its willingness to protect this typical specialty of the Italian culinary tradition, rewarding the certification only those who follow the original recipe. Among the characteristics of STG certification:

• cooked in a wood oven [emphasis mine]

I think that it may be legal, since it sounds like Italy got the "Neapolitan Pizza" protected post-Brexit.

While this has been functional and reliable, i cannot stand the UI, its slow and sluggish and overall hasn’t been a great experience to configure.

Router: ER605

If your issue is just the Web UI on the router, most network hardware that I've run into has some kind of CLI interface.

It sounds like you can set up SSH to the thing.

https://superuser.com/questions/1680383/how-do-i-gain-root-command-line-access-to-a-tp-link-tl-r605-router

First you have to enable "Remote Assistance" which apparently enables SSH access. Then SSH into your router

ssh user@routerIP

I noticed on a mac that Ventura no longer accepts lower hashes so you have to update the ssh config file on Mac's (and perhaps other Distros) with the following:

sudo nano /etc/ssh/ssh_config

then add to the bottom:

HostkeyAlgorithms +ssh-rsa <<enter new line as I don't know how to edit in this forum>> PubkeyAcceptedAlgorithms +ssh-rsa

Then Save.

When you log in you have to enter the command EN (to enable, similar to a cisco router)

From there, type help.

Thats as far as I've gotten. Help shows a bunch of config and show options.

After you have entered "en" for enable, you can enter "configure" to get to config options. Type help after Configure, lots of options there.

Didn't this happen a while back? I mean, I'm not saying that the financial issues are resolved, mind.

EDIT: Ah, yeah, some other people have pointed it out.

Sounds like PvE works, but not PvP.

This guy claims that he got it working in PvP, at least at one point:

Ran fine for me with Proton Easy Anti-Cheat when added to Steam. This was a few patches ago now though. Whenever Streets came out.

I haven't watched the video

I would generally rather have text form content

but if Rossman is announcing the same thing that I just read about elsewhere, it's not a removal of sideloading. It requires that a developer register and provide Google with personal information for Google to let them create packages. Assuming that Google is willing to let the F-Droid developers register an account (which I assume they have) and sign the F-Droid package, it should not restrict installation of the F-Droid package.

However, you wouldn't be able to use F-Droid to install any packages that didn't conform to Google's new requirements.

I doubt that the restriction is at the store app level, but at the package installation level. That is, I would expect that the F-Droid or Google's store app or whatever says "install this package" and the OS refuses.

https://developer.android.com/developer-verification

Starting in September 2026, Android will require all apps to be registered by verified developers in order to be installed on certified Android devices.

Step 1

Verify your identity

You will need to provide and verify your personal details, like your legal name, address, email address, and phone number.

If you're registering as an organization, you'll also need to provide a D-U-N-S number and verify your organization's website.

You may also need to upload official government ID.

Step 2

Register your apps

You'll need to prove you own your apps by providing your app package name and app signing keys.

I haven't played it, but it sounds like it doesn't have a replay system, which apparently has exacerbated finding cheaters.

iOS

IOS already does this.

Is there other alternatives to Apple and Google phones?

There are phones that run on other platforms, but the app library and hardware isn't competitive.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_open-source_mobile_phones

You could also move most of what you do to a tablet or laptop if you're willing to carry that, and just use the phone as an Internet access device and for phone calls.

EDIT: Or use a cell modem for data and SIP service for phone service and texts, though then you need to have a device that you'll keep on if you want to get incoming calls when they come in. Cell phones are pretty optimized for low idle power usage.

Looking at their dev guidelines page, they don't have any texture resolution limit other than "don't use very large textures on very small objects", so I doubt that the project has any really hard caps.

https://supertuxkart.net/Texture_Guidelines#texture-details

Do not use large textures for small objects—this wastes video RAM.

If they are concerned about distribution size, if the game supports it or could support it, might be possible to have a separate high-resolution-texture package, package those separately.

I doubt it, seeing as it looks like it's still being actively developed. I'd expect anyone who wanted to have higher resolution textures or whatever to just add an option for that to the main game.

EDIT: It does look like they have abut 500 "addon" tracks, and I suppose that some of those might have higher-resolution textures than the tracks in the base game.

EDIT2: Also, it's not SuperTuxKart, but you're looking for more-realistic open source racing graphics and haven't seen it, there's TORCS. That might do what you want.

EDIT3: Also Speed Dreams:

EDIT4: It doesn't look like you can sort the add-on tracks on the website by size, but you can sort by upload date, and I'd assume that newer tracks are probably more likely to have higher-resolution textures.

The new lawsuit said Li began working as an engineer for xAI last year, where he helped train and develop Grok. The company said Li took its trade secrets in July, shortly after accepting a job from OpenAI and selling $7 million in xAI stock.

I must say that it's going to be a bitch-and-a-half to retain core engineers if people are walking away at what amounts to $7 million/year in effective compensation.

Looks like he only started working in industry in 2023, too (though was doing relevant work as a graduate student prior to that).
