Patrick Breyer's warning about this from 2 days ago

 

Main Article:

Michael Burry is sounding an awful lot like the investor [Jim Chanos] who shorted Enron.

He estimated that Meta, Google, Oracle, Microsoft, and Amazon — five hyperscalers and some of the biggest names in the AI trade — would "understate depreciation" by around $176 billion between 2026 and 2028.

"But it gets worse. More detail coming November 25th," he added.

Now, what do do with the copilot button?

Well if you're into running local LLMs, you could always tie it into that

Or just make it a dedicated Steam button LMAO

Not really, unintended side effects.

Couple of different reasons really

Shopping for a new home instance

Exploring the Threadiverse from different perspectives (the "hot" feed you see can vary quite a bit depending on the instance you're on lol)

Trolling .ml (or Why am I cross-posting .ml content?

I cross-post from .ml to the nearest relevant non-.ml comm to reduce the influence of .ml comms and indirectly, the instance as a whole, to make it an easier decision for other instance admins to defederate because one key reason I identified that admins don't want to defederate is because .ml still has some very large comms and some niche comms.

Megathread on the issue

Some highlights from the link:

"Don't worry guys, the Uyghur Genocide was REALLY just birth control! ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/30580167

"See! nobody died IN Tiananmen Square, just AROUND it, so it doesn't count!!" ~ Davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/30673342

.ml admin, Nutomics continued transphobia https://lemmy.world/post/29222558 The original transphobic Comment from Nutomic: https://lemmy.world/post/18236068

"NK is actually good and anything counter to that is Western propaganda!" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/31595035

General negative sentiment to other instances who haven't "seen the way" yet ~davel, .ml admin https://lemmy.world/post/27426510

"If you don't support Russia then you just don't understand geopolitics" ~dessalines, .ml admin, dev https://lemmy.world/post/27352415

And so so much documentation on clear heavy handed censorship and bias also on the link. So much I can't even put them all here because this comment would be really long.

I believe the behavior of its admins (the main admins are Lemmy devs) does harm to the overall growth of the Lemmy-verse and maybe even the Thrediverse (since Lemmy kinda kicked off the Thrediverse) because of its association with the devs of Lemmy and their insistence to use .ml as their personal political platform to spread harmful propaganda

On the outside, bringing up Lemmy frequently leads to comments like "Lemmy? Isn't that the place with a bunch of tankies?" Or "Tried Lemmy, but found it full of pro Russia crap so I left". The best way forward from that I see is to either widely defederate from .ml like the rest of the Triad, or pressure them to put a fair and unbiased as possible admin team.

)

Learning that the bot intended to better interconnect instance comms may not be doing as good of a job

Interconnecting wayward instances, this one for example not a single comm I posted to was federated, I had to manually federate each one for posting

Creating comms on fitting instances or just among a regular rotation of general instances so I'm not making a whole bunch on any one instance

Because what's the fun in that?

 

Valve today (12 November 2025) announced their new Steam Machine (x86 CPU, 6x more powerful than Steam Deck) and Steam Frame (self-contained and PCVR streaming VR headset with ARM CPU & "FEX" translation of x86 to ARM) to be released in early 2026. No prices yet.

I'm trying to speculate what effects this will have on the wider Linux ecosystem. Both devices will be running Steam OS and be open so you can run any OS.

First, I've read many people state that the Steam Deck considerably increased the number of devices running Linux, so it seems to me that these two new devices will accelerate that trend.

Second, it seems to me that the Steam Frame will significantly increase VR use and development for Linux.

Third, I wonder what the implications of Frame's x86 to arm translation layer (based on FEX, an open source project that I only learned about today) as well as Android compatibility (they state it can sideload Android APKs) will be. Could this somehow help either Linux on Apple silicon or Linux phone efforts? I'm very unfamiliar with what's going on with either of these efforts, so I may be way out on a limb here.

What do you think about all this?

The team behind the lightweight Debian-based Linux distro Sparky announced the release of version 8.1, the first quarterly update to its “Seven Sisters” series. Based on Debian 13 (Trixie) stable branch.

The new release ships with the Linux kernel 6.12 LTS as its default for PC editions, while kernels such as 6.17, 6.6 LTS are also available in the Sparky repositories for those who prefer to upgrade manually.

 

openSUSE Tumbleweed has officially replaced its traditional GRUB2 boot loader with GRUB2-BLS when installing the system via YaST. It is a variant of the traditional GRUB2 that supports the Boot Loader Specification (BLS) — a modern standard defining how Linux systems store and manage boot entries.

Instead of using a single large configuration file like grub.cfg, GRUB2-BLS reads small, individual text files (called Type #1 entries) located in /boot/efi/loader/entries. Each file describes how to boot a kernel, including its initrd and command line options.
