this extension seemingly only lists third party DRM.

That could be the case! Unfortunately I can’t see any documentation about it on their website or github repo.

I’m playing with mouse and keyboard, so not sure that’s possible with the Android version.

I saw a Linux Genshin launcher on github a while ago, but iirc it carries some ban risk that I don’t want to expose my account to.

I don’t know of a bulk tool, but the Augmented Steam browser extension shows a DRM warning above the purchase button when you go on a game’s Steam store page.

And many games haven’t been assessed either. I plugged my Steam account into ProtonDB, and apparently 51% of my games can be made to run perfectly on Linux, 10% are various levels of broken, but the remaining 39% has no information. I guess it’s because I have many indie games in my library.

The only thing I want to say is that the “10%” that don’t work are usually pretty popular.

Yeah, like I’m glad Linux support is increasing among games, but my main daily driver game (Genshin) still doesn’t support it 🤷 And I don’t think Hoyoverse will be spending work on Linux support when they are raking in so much cash from their millions of players. From what I can see Linux usage hovers around 0.3% in China, and that’s Hoyo’s main market.

this is such a cute idea 🥹 now I imagine them running little Wordpress blogs

cheeky xD

Try out Flora Incognita, it usually works pretty well, at least in the UK. Though I’m kinda bemused that while often I give it one blurry photo of a leaf and it immediately spits out the 97% confidence answer (and yes, the result’s example photos do match the real plant’s other parts too), but occasionally it has me take painstaking photos of like 5 different aspects of the plant, then thinks for more than a minute and goes “eeh, 37% that it’s this [completely different looking] plant, otherwise no clue”.

Agreed, despite its faults, Wikipedia/Wikimedia is one of the most ethical organisations I know of, to a large degree because of how much average users can take part in its various decision-making processes. Most of its bureaucratic processes happen in the open - I sometimes enjoy reading through 15-years-old discussions about why/if a certain page should be deleted or a certain user banned.

How is it a crisis? I’m expecting/hoping LLMs will just get increasingly worse as they are fed on their own slop, until they collapse into unusability and the world finally returns to sanity.

That’s a good point, scary to think that there are people growing up now for whom LLMs are the default way of accessing knowledge.

You’re acting deliberately obtuse. Millions of people fled from the war, also known as “moving”, to reference your original comment.

They have no desire or intention to use AI in a way that directly effects the information on the site, how it’s presented to visitors or to use it in a way that would manipulate how articles are edited.

To be fair in June they tried to introduce AI-generated “simple summaries” to articles, but the editor community was so vehemently against it, that in the end they shelved the idea.

“With fewer visits to Wikipedia, fewer volunteers may grow and enrich the content, and fewer individual donors may support this work.”

I understand the donors aspect, but I don’t think anyone who is satisfied with AI slop would bother to improve wiki articles anyway.

and the millions of citizens whose homes had been bombed and shelled and who had fled advancing armies.

In Europe alone it is estimated as many as 65 million people were forced from their homes by the war including those used as slave labour by the Nazis, ex-Prisoners of War, and the millions of citizens whose homes had been bombed and shelled and who had fled advancing armies.

good riddance! (though the irony of anti-migrationists migrating is amusing)

Reminds me of that Kurzgesagt video about Optimistic Nihilism:

“If you don’t remember the 13.75 billion years that went by before you existed, then the trillions and trillions and trillions of years that come after will pass in no time once you’re gone. Close your eyes. Count to 1. That’s how long forever feels.”

Nope, I think humanity will be long gone by then, so it doesn’t really matter what happens after that.
