Sony buy up KADOKAWA shares to become largest shareholder of the FromSoftware parent company

Why? It's a non-controlling share. They are one investor among many I would imagine.
No probably more to ensure access on their platforms and discourage any future deals that would prevent releases on PS5/PS Plus/PS Now. They did the something similar with Epic and Discord for example.

Quoting: EhvisIt's 10% of the shares. Not exactly something that lets Sony control what's going to happen.

Left 4 Dead hardly invented zombies. I see very little resemblance between Helldivers and Left 4 Dead if any at all.
Anyway this patch looks absolutely MASSIVE! The Illuminate, vehicles and we get to fight on Super Earth? Looks like I will gather my friends to defend freedom this evening :)

consider me unimpressed.
Imo studios should be more creative than following the rather repetitive Left4Dead formula. It's been done to death already.

Quoting: AdutchmanQuoting: no_information_hereQuoting: BrokattI had to google it. Apparently it's a german federal tech agency.
Yes, my first question was Sovereign to which country?
It would have been great to have more context:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sovereign_Tech_Fund
Even their website avoids saying anything about Germany on most pages. Weird.

It's not immediately clear, but they don't exactly hide it either: https://www.sovereign.tech/faq.

Manjaro Linux want your system info with their new data collection tool
6 November 2024 at 8:15 am UTC
I agree. That is true for all statistics though.

Quoting: KlaasQuoting: BrokattTruth is telemetry is really useful for developers and without it's way too easy to make the wrong assumptions.And it is even easier to make wrong assumptions due to telemetry. Calling it a double-edged sword even with consent is putting it mildly.

Truth is telemetry is really useful for developers and without it's way too easy to make the wrong assumptions. The sad reality is that with opt-in you get a very small data sample that can actually distort the view compared with opt-out. I know this is a sensitive subject in the community but I believe this can be done correctly even with opt-out. With the correct information about the collection displayed to the user, with clear ways to decline, and the correct amount of data collected. It all comes down to how it's implemented. Of course no personal data, no unique identifiers and no usage data should be collected. It remains to be seen how Manjaro handles this.
Most of us here on Gaming on Linux use Steam and they gather lots of telemetry data. I fully expect KDE Linux to use telemetry. You simply need to use telemetry if you are serious about your OS. That's my two cents.

Bazzite updated to Fedora 41 with expanded PC gaming handheld support
30 October 2024 at 3:23 pm UTC
I googled it and apparently it's just certain kinds of sticks. Didn't matter if I used Fedora Media Writer or Etcher. Anyway I didn't delve any deeper into it. I just bought another stick and went on with my life.

Quoting: ToddLQuoting: BrokattI used a SanDisk USB stick and that one had no issues with writing the installer and booting it from the PC.Quoting: ZeloxHaving a desktop pc that just stood there with a decent amd gpu I wanted to put this pc in my living room. Sadly the install for Bazzite is so huge that it wouldn't fit on any of the USB's I have at home, I ended up with chimera OS instead, but that was a real pain to install also. I hade to clean format my hard drives, edit the install script and then I finally manage to get it installed. So if there is one who want so take the market by storm, just make an easy install. I will probably try Bazzite os again once they have some kind of install over the internet. Chimera was painful to install.
Quoting: ToddLI used a 16GB USB stick to create the installer for Bazzite and it worked perfectly fine when I tried it on a PC I recently purchased. You don't need anything more than a 16GB USB stick since the installer itself it about 10GB.
Just a heads up. Bazzite can be picky about what kind of USB stick you can use. It just refused to boot from my Kingston stick even though Kubuntu, Fedora and Windows 10 worked just fine on it. I went out and bought a Samsung stick and that one worked.
