I consider Limbo one of the major games during the fairly early indie game times. One of the games that really showcased that we don't need to rely on massive companies to create iconic and memorable videogames.
It's sad to see it disappear (at least in the legal realm).

This. Limbo has got a little place in many hearts. 💔

The problem is not how to get 32 bit libraries onto the users' systems.

That works all fine natively or in Flatpak or however.

The problem is how to get/make/maintain the libraries in the first place.

Ubuntu people said (6 years ago already!) that the environment, tools and the libs themselves are brittling.

It seems quite solid: minimal id information for the service provider and no way for an attestation provider to track which sites you are showing the attestation to.

How they're doing it right at least once... ;)

The analogy with driving also works in reverse to show how absurd the new laws are. What if the government suddenly started requiring all vehicle be equipped with a gps module constantly streaming its position to the authorities because "it will protect the children".

You're aware that something along these lines is already in place?!?

Seems to be an unpopular opinion but - good riddance. I'm tired of this wild west era of the internet where any platform can have anything on it and not be held responsible. Sure, no implementation will be perfect, but why not make the haram stuff a bit more difficult to access, eh? If this is what it takes to expose a few less people to traumatizing or shocking content all willy-nilly.

Now, I too, feel that the implementation of these being left to the free market is a bad idea. I want a transparent trust-free ubiquitous social service (from the government) identifying people and confirming to platform holder whether I am qualified for the content (jurisdiction & age). I will not give my ID to Google or platform partners (who mess things up completely in case of smaller platforms).

Thanks for writing this. My little one, eight years young, started using Google this week. Yes, I will have to steer that, but I appreciate some content to be behind age verification check.

That's not what this article says though... It explicitly states that NVIDIA will be ending driver support for the aforementioned cards.

I actually took what I said from the article. :)

..."they've now confirmed the 580 series will be the last supported for GPUs based on"...

The alternative is to just not do it and pretend this is a defensible position. I don't think "but having my OS actually run software is hard and users who insist on it are being unrealistic" is a defensible technical position.

"I'm not going to do this in my free time; it's no fun" is an understandable position, though...
