I feel like we need to have a serious conversation about pizza.

I didn’t enjoy that studios used DLSS instead of optimization, but holy hell, this is awful. I will love to set every single DLSS 5.0 flagship title to ignore on Steam, at least it’ll be easy to spot since everything will look like it’s generated by the same chatgpt prompt.

A solar farm in China is greening the land around it by reducing ground water evaporation, cutting down on wind, and adding water to the ground.

This thought came to me in the shower today. Open source checks most of the boxes. It is a collaborative, worker owned (develloper-owned) project, that tries to flatten hierarchy. Especially if you look at something like Debian ), which really tries to have a bottom-up structure. Of course, there are exceptions, considering there are a lot of corporate open-source projects, that are not democratically maintained and clearly only serve the interest of the company, who created it (like chromium for example). So I am mainly talking about community-oriented FOSS projects here. And if you were to agree with my statement, would you say that developing FOSS software is advancing the goals of the anarchist / communist project, because it is laying the groundwork infrastructure needed for a new kind of economy and society? Thought this could be an interesting discussion!
