Oh wow this is Bevy and Rust?! RIP to everyone saying no "real" games are made in Rust.

Yet another reason PC is superior.
I remember thinking this in 2005 odd. I said something to the effect of "If you think Climate Change doesn't exist, start an insurance company" Unfortunately, turns out all insurance companies weren't really pricing in climate...
Not a premium user but Youtube has poisoned its own waters with its algorithm. You can see the "top" content basically gaming that algorithm as well as it can. Literally every part of it from the title to the thumbnail to the content itself is hollow except for the skinner box.
It's a pretty tepid way of thinking about the issue to be honest. In a strategic sense, basically any move Microsoft is forced to make for actual (rather than apparent) security makes it harder for them to do things in a way which creates lock-in. Yes, they will use it to push for DRM, as another commenter noted, but that's another apparent security solution. In the long term, this is a positive, but it's not an immediate and direct benefit, as the blog post notes.
Bit of both. Actually I think ARM the ISA overall is in good (even great!) shape, but it's the GPU and other SoC functions which cause the most headaches.
Qualcomm had an exclusivity deal with Microsoft which has expired. I think that's what is causing them to put relevant code in mainline.
I don't understand it, not Trump (who is the mechanism), but the entire conservative establishment. Like they have to know that they, and probably the capitalist system they've set up, has about 10 maybe 20 years left if they push in this direction (forget the "selfless" act of humans continuing to live on this planet). Do they really expect to be better off living like this? Or are they so far up their own arseholes that they can't see what's going to happen here?
Snapdragon hasn't had mainline kernel support and has always been a pain to set up, enough so that nobody does it. This is using a snapdragon processor. Those are also fairly powerful.
I wish he wouldn't repeat the idea that Proton is acceptable to game devs and Linux users shouldn't demand native games. I'm much closer to Nick's (from Linux Experiment) idea: That these games work as long as a company like Valve pays for Proton. The day Valve stops is the day these Proton games start to rot. For archival, for our own history, and for actual games on Linux, we should want Linux native games.
The thing is, the "no tux no bucks" crowd doesn't advocate for other people to say the same. The proton crowd is actively telling the "no tux no bucks" people to shut up, and it's not very nice. We need a multitude of views to succeed in the long term as a community.
