WOOOOO... je n'avais pas testé à fond le shader BLISS.
C'est carrément le meilleur shader que j'ai vu.

@aral
Do you really expect that
@EUCommission is going to answer or even read posts at all?
I would put some hope on Europe if they interact, but I've never seen anything from them but their own posts and no interaction whatsoever.
Das hat lange gefehlt: Jetzt gibt es endlich eine Karte zu Rechenzentren in Deutschland, und welche noch geplant sind.
Superwichtiges Projekt von 'Heiße Luft', danke Tiziana von Witzleben und Max Schulze und die Unterstützer*innen von @fragdenstaat, Leitmotiv und @algorithmwatch !

Modern Dependency Problems (with apologies and thanks to XKCD)
Probably needs more arrows, tbh
It does sometimes seem like this, doesn't it?
However: One of the several real world cases that have cropped up over the years with that picture has been ntpd, and in fairness I don't think that the world knew what David L. Mills's politics were at all, or knows now.
There are a lot of quiet people like that. We've no idea what Herbert Xu, maintainer of the shell (dash) that runs much in Debian and Ubuntu, believes politically, for example.
This is a useful analogy from @pluralistic : COVID was an opportunistic infection. It killed disproportionately people suffering from other pathologies, and we, collectively, struggled to attribute the deaths of COVID patients to COVID itself rather than those other pathologies. Eventually there was a sort of agreement that excess mortality is a reasonable way to measure COVID's impact.

Premessa: un membro della redazione fa anche parte di Luanti.
Tracer AI, compagnia che usa agenti IA per scovare e segnalare le violazioni di diritto d'autore, ha fatto rimuovere da Google Play l'app della piattaforma videoludica Luanti. L'accusa, mossa in nome di Microsoft, è di aver utilizzato risorse del gioco Minecraft (proprietà Microsoft) nella propria app; un'accusa facilmente smontabile in quanto sia il codice che le risorse di Luanti sono visibili a chiunque (è software libero).
Questa non è la prima volta che accade: nel 2023 la stessa compagnia mosse la medesima accusa, portando chi sviluppa Luanti a presentare una contronotifica: l'app rimase non disponibile per 46 giorni prima di essere riabilitata, contrariamente al limite di 14 giorni lavorativi sancito dalla legge statunitense che regola tali faccende. In entrambi i casi, non sono mai state fornite prove.
Qualche mese fa la stessa sorte è toccata a Allumeria, un gioco a cubetti oggi prossimo al lancio, sulla piattaforma Steam. Lo sviluppatore fu colto di sorpresa finché, subito dopo l'arrivo della notizia al direttore artistico di Minecraft su Bluesky, Microsoft non ritirò la segnalazione.
"Se fossimo una piccola azienda che dipende dalle entrate della propria app, ciò sarebbe particolarmente devastante". Inoltre, essendo una realtà sostenuta da volontarɜ, combattere contro tali richieste equivale a grandi sprechi di energie e risorse.
