One of the original R.U.S.E. trailers is one of my favourite game trailers. To be clear, it's not a gameplay trailer, but mixes live action & CGI. I still want a table like what's shown.

Have I been living under a rock or is this the first time anyone else has heard Amazon Luna even existed?
Apparently it's about 3 years old and it's already being chopped up. That's not encouraging.

The continued development of OpenRazer is always good to hear about, as it means there are fewer reasons for users to remain using MS Windows. Hopefully said users see the update news somehow and that sets them on the path to transitioning to Linux.
California law to require operating systems to check your age

Is it just me or does anytime you hear "age bracket" you think about advertising (and/or taxes)? I really want this bill to go away. It sets a bad precedent, or maybe a gateway for worse. Perhaps it's intended to be a "good enough" solution to a pretend problem so that we don't get an even worse solution, but I agree that it's a slippery slope.
If I had to compromise, I might annoyingly settle for a checkbox for being under/over the age of majority. Any more than that binary option is giving away data that doesn't need to be given away. Does age bracket info fall under any US data privacy laws, like HIPAA? Will every single website that requests your age bracket be required to follow HIPAA data security requirements?

Steam Survey for February 2026 shows a big swing to Simplified Chinese

I'd love to see actual counts in addition to the percentages, since a drop in percentage doesn't necessarily mean an actual drop in users. But I don't see such detailed info on Steam's survey results page, so I don't expect that's possible to report on here.
