Judging by the trailer I will probably wait for a "Safe Mode" to actually play this one (SOMA is not that much a horror game but it was already to much for me without the "Safe Mode")! ^_^

Frictional Games are uploading new videos on their YouTube channel [External Link]! :) (some audio and texts are in french, you will probably find translations in comments bellow each video... I can translate audio from "Box 17, Card 9" but there is not that much to translate, at the end the guy says "Ruuuuun!" if you have any doubt)

(You know that my German is even far poorer that my English? I'm probably just able to get a bier in a pub and I just remember the first half of Die Lorelei by Heinrich Heine... which is probably not that bad when I think about it! ^_^)
Btw, I'm not sure where we are herding this discussion that is far from the original topic of the post, and it's difficult for me to have such discussion in English so I should probably stop here (sorry for any mistake in my comment, I can assure you that no baker has been harmed during the operations). :P

Quoting: EikeThe base claim, "Heat is the only influence radio can have on a body", is disputed. I could give you a Geman source if it helps you.I know that there is studies that investigate potential effects at cell level and have shown potential pathways... but on that subject only epidemiological studies on large population are relevant (knowing that there is a potential way for an effect means nothing if this effect do not exist in the population... we are using cellphones etc. since at least 20 years so we don't lack data in this field). Such studies (large population with statistically relevant results) simply do not exist for now...

Quoting: EikePS: And the following is a red flag of non-science: "Claims of harm from cell phone use — not just 5G, but all cell phones — should also be red flagged because they are tirelessly promoted by the Environmental Working Group". Truth never depends on whichever group agrees or disagrees.No sorry. The "red flag" here is not that one should discard those claims blindly, but that one should be very careful when reading facts from a source that is known to give bad information (they may be wrong or right, but one should be more cautious with such sources). :)

Quoting: GuestThousands of studies link low-level wireless radio frequency radiation exposures to a long list of adverse biological effects, including: [...]No (or that "thousands of studies" are not peer-reviewed and published in very low quality publications that can accept studies with poor methodology). You will find a good (and recent) summary of the state of the art here [External Link] with a curated bibliography on this subject. :)

Quoting: TobiSGDI think that this discussion on Twitter [External Link] is interesting (imho) on that subject (Neal Gompa is from Fedora). :)Quoting: GuestI can see why they want to remove 32 bit libs because it's a ton of work.But a ton of work for whom? They still get the majority of their packages directly from Debian, throwing a patch on one or the other package and just compile. If Debian still supports newer versions of 32 bit libraries, how much work is there really to be done for canonical?

Quoting: Prime_EvilI am heartened by the fact that a number of Ubuntu derivatives such as Mint and Pop_OS! have indicated that they will continue to offer 32-bit support in some form. Has anybody heard from Elementary or KDE Neon yet?Some answers in this discussion on Twitter [External Link]. :wink:

Steam on Linux is only supported on LTS versions of Ubuntu... so 18.10 wasn't, 19.04 isn't and 19.10 wouldn't have been officially supported btw. :whistle: (sorry but Pierre-Loup Griffais post reminds me those from Octave Klaba during OVH vs Ubuntu / Canonical clash some years ago on a totally unrelated subject... but the way of communicating around the issue is a bit similar)

Currently, Steam for Linux is only supported on the most recent version of Ubuntu LTS with the Unity, Gnome, or KDE desktops.Source [External Link]
