Just talking about filesystems with checksumming (and multidevice). Any new filesystem to support these features is going to be newer.

I've had both btrfs and bcachefs multidevice filesystems lock up read-only on me. So no real data loss, just a pain to get the data into a new file system, the time it was an 8 drive array on btrfs.

Also out of tree.

https://youtu.be/CiSS5OsNCNU from the creator explains it (and older gyro controls).

I use an older Google Coral TPU running in my home lab being used by Frigate NVR for object detection for security cameras. It's more efficient, but less flexible than running it on the GPU.

Don't know if I need an NPU for my daily driver computer, but I would want one for my next home server.

Or a game example: I have Minecraft (Bedrock) on my phone so therefore I should be able to do the same things as Minecraft (Java) on Windows. The problem is they're the same names for different software with similar, but not the same, functionality.

On Linux instead of replacing the driver, you have to add an udev rule that allows applications to communicate with the USB device directly: https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-devices/blob/master/6... And you can see in this list, it's not the only controller with that requirement.

SteamOS includes this by default.

It happened in last year's March stats too: https://web.archive.org/web/20250404061527/https://store.ste... -25%

The difference here is it can be set by the parent on the OS and locked. Requiring sudo equivalent to change.

The way it is now, there's nothing stopping a (18-) user from logging out of a 'parental control enabled' account and making a new account without those controls on any service from Facebook to Steam. So the only effective option at that point is to entirely block that app or service.

This gives more power to parental control software. And yeah moves the responsibility from the service to the parents, which is what the services want cuz COPPA and other similar laws.

No one says it has to be automatic. The OS could require the parent to manually update it.

There's an exception with fighting games. Fighting games generally don't have server simulations (or servers at all), but every single client does their own full simulation. And 2XKO and Dragon Ball FighterZ have kernel anti cheat.

Well I'm just nitpicking and it's different because it's one of the few competitive genres where the clients do full game state simulations. Another being RTS games.

Well it's definitely not game developer written kernel anti-cheat on consoles.

I also enjoy rhythm games, but they're different combos. Especially for the learning process: you're really not punished for dropping combos in rhythm games, and you can keep playing as if you didn't drop it (unless you're going for the full combo of course). That's really not the case for fighting games, requiring you to restart to the beginning of the combo each time. And in a multiplayer game, it gives your opponent an opportunity each time.

Anyways, to me the things that make fighting games difficult and fun are what differentiate them from beat 'em ups, which get pretty boring quickly.

I don't disagree that combos are not fun to learn, but I don't know what you could replace it with. Removing it would turns games into punch, punch back, kick, kick back without any risk or counterplay. Adding blocking/countering would have to be more complicated than just "hold block" to keep it interesting and would require memorization all your opponent's moves too. I'd say Tekken 8 already has this problem especially with King's chain grabs. So lots of games are going for auto-combos to make comboing easier instead.

I actually did play Skullgirls and Street Fighter 6 in a way without learning combos for a character. It's pretty easy with a zoner, and plenty of players hate playing against that too.
