Yes, they absolutely have. The use of AI chat bots for role playing is now fairly commonplace, and not just for sex chat. Silly Tavern and Kobold are major tools for running those locally. There are numerous guides for integrating an LLM as

Oh, it absolutely is; if your product doesn't update its EAC bits regularly then it may as well not use EAC at all. Even still, there are known ways around it.

That sort of corruption is endemic to the American political establishment. They profit from their inside knowledge of congress, wielding their insider knowledge to make themselves wealthy; not all do it, but enough do that it's nigh i

This really isn't the case any longer. Linux Mint and similar are gaining traction in the gaming community because of how simple they are to use. It's entirely possible to use Linux nowadays without ever opening a terminal, and th

With a variety of recent posts regarding compiling Schemes to wasm, it seems prudent to share this excellent page of documentation for uLisp's built in assembler. It's small, elegant, and easy to understand.

The simple answer is that children should not have access to a cell phone at their leisure, or unmonitored access to a computer or tablet. Access should be limited, purposeful, and monitored when possible.

This was a validating read. I used a Samsung G9 OLED for the better part of a year and eventually had to stop because the eye strain was terrible. I found myself avoiding my desk because it was a chore to look at the display. I've move

Possession of CSAM materials can be a criminal offence. Here in Canada, it doesn't matter if it's a sex doll that looks like a child, an imagined bit of erotica, or a drawing. And so, it is dangerous to use a tool that can inadver

At this point it should be clear that they know that Grok is unsafe to use, and will generate potentially illegal content even without a clear prompt asking it to do so. This is a dangerous product, the manufacturer _knows_ it is dangerous,

Likewise, I feel happy when using Emacs in a way that other editors do not. Emacs was made for a different era of development, with different views on what productive programming looked like. Rider, VSCode, and etc are all post-NetBeans edi

Valve contributes effort to Wine via Proton, and provides open source software like Steam Audio. EA does something similar, and their EASTL is an opinionated and gaming-focused container and algorithms library that they maintain and made op

FWIW, Wine 8.0 introduced some WinRT support, specifically Windows.Gaming.Input. It's a start.

How many of those entries have been tested with recent versions of wine or proton? Seems a poor metric. Better to consider is the Proton verified count, which has been rocketing upwards. https://www.protondb.com/

Not to worry, Microsoft can't escape Win32 either. They've tried, with UWP and others, but they're locked in to supporting the ABI. It's not a moving target. Proton and Wine have shown it can be achieved with greater com

Not to disagree, but proton has made it quite easy to run games I've previously struggled with. The nice thing is that it works with any binary, not just those you've purchased. Yes, it's wine, but valve has done wonders for

Meta appears to believe this, and so is pushing chatbot integration into private chats on Messenger and WhatsApp; presumably that will be the vector by which they push product advertisements.
