Hopefully there will be a something like this for Unreal Tournament 2004 (My favorite) at some point. Unreal Tournament 3 however, I'm not sure if I'd care or not because It was just okay and a disappointment following UT2k4. I don't think it sold very well either.

Arch Linux Package Management (ALPM) gets funding from Sovereign Tech Agency

Quoting: LoudTechie
Quoting: ArehandoroThis is the only thing that comes to mind each time I read Sovereign:

It's EU politico speak.
I think it's best translated to American with "America first!"
If European governments try to rid themselves of dependencies of goods and services from parties, whose reliability and stability they're too polite to question they call it a push for sovereignty.
France pleads for an EU army for this reason.
Germany maintains a pretty big military industry for it.
The EU is importing lots extra expensive gass from the USA for this reason.
Its why the EU sometimes tries to get an internal mining industry(until they discover that the reason they don't have one is, because they care about human rights, environmental protections, etc)

Most of the time it means moving away from USA provided goods and services, but not always.
Can't say I blame them. I'd be trying to move away from dependency on the US too, especially with that POS Trump assuming office next month. He's extremely hostile towards Europe, so If I were them I'd cut ties as quickly as possible.

Do you think SteamOS would ever be a viable desktop distro?

Intel announced their Arc B-Series GPUs and XeSS 2, the day after CEO Pat Gelsinger retires

As much as I loath the idea of supporting massive late-stage capitalist corporations I have to admit that I am rooting for Intel to be successful so that there will be more legitimate choices besides a massive monopoly and a lazy AMD. They could really clean up on the entry level - mid range market if this goes well and they continue to stick with it. They will likely have it all to themselves as well, as NVIDIA has shown no interest in getting the money of people who can't afford to spend $600+ dollars on a graphics card.

I'm happy with Nobara. Everything was done for me to get games working so I'm happy. All of my devices like my controllers and stuff worked out of the box too.

Awesome that they are giving away Elite Dangerous! The game is in the best place it has ever been and it's super exciting to play every day. IMO the best space sim out there, period.

Sucks. I'm broke going into all these sales and black Friday because it's been a really terrible year for me, so I'm going to miss all the sales.
