Their VMs are often used for cloud gaming. Your own version of GeForce now essentially. The attacker might have told the employee to check if it works or something of the sort.
So it’s not to far fetched.
You could just go with Debian unstable. I rarely ran into issues while running it in a rolling release style.
Debian testing might also work for you. But it will have a freeze window before each release.
I think any job could benefit from workers union. No matter if restaurant workers or software engineers. We can see right now the issues that exist with US at-will work situations and green card holders being held hostage.
I am part of a union as a software engineer and I wouldn’t have it any other way anymore. I am based in the EU though.
That is already being done right now.
You can fashion your old Mainboard into a home server. For example by using their case made in collaboration with I think CooperMaster but you can also 3D print it yourself.
The displays are just standard eDP connectors. So anyone could use that as well with a cheap board.
Would have liked a more technical update. Something akin to Factorios FFFs. There were quite a few articles recently about the FSR2 implementation being faulty and general performance issues due to wrong use of certain gpu extensions. Would have loved to see something mentioned about that.
I really appreciate that Earendel also got to voice some lines here. The crossover with the mod is undeniable and him being involved with the company now could have been handled differently elsewhere.
Yes. They are using WebUSB. That’s only supported on chrome browsers for now. But it also works on Linux. The home automation community makes great use of that api.
There are some projects form a few years ago. Mostly using Parsec but there might be more, even open source, options in that area.
But all the DIY solutions will require you to have some knowledge in regards to public clouds. But all-in-all they shouldn’t be that expensive as they generally make use of cheap instances and automatic shutdowns. So you only pay for the time you are actually playing plus the storage.
One quick search showed https://github.com/badjware/aws-cloud-gaming but I can’t say anything about the working state of that repository. But it should be a good starting point.
