When Do Debian Packages Receive Updates?
  • You can always use APT Pinning to grab GIMP and its dependencies from testing without touching the rest of the system.

    Or you can just run testing or sid as your base system. My gaming rig is based on testing but pulling Mesa and video derivers from experimental and sid and I haven’t had any issues with it. Been running it for about 2 years now this way.

  • Estado Novo (1937) On this day in 1937, a coup took place in Brazil when President Getúlio Vargas gave a national address declaring a state of emergency and abolishing the constitution.
  • This is all true but it’s also important to note that he got back to the Presidency in 1951 for 3 years, period during which he became known as “father of the poor” due to his strong focus on social and labour reforms. He inaugurated what’s known in Brazil as “getulismo” which is to this day one of the strongest references of left-wing pro-worker policies.

    Getúlio was a complex man.

  • Snapdragon 8 Elite arrives with Linux support, potentially unlocking PC gaming on phones and tablets
  • lol yeah…. Debian has has an arm64 variant since version 8:

    98% of Debian is currently built: over 12200 source (arch-specific) packages. https://wiki.debian.org/Arm64Port

    It is true that for gaming we’re back into emulating x64 and translating Windows APIs via WINE and maybe Proton but almost all Linux software will work natively.

  • Exposed: How Israeli Spies Control Your VPN
  • Mullvad has been my go-to for a long time. It can be fully anonymous, including accepting cash payments, they’re always on top and improving anonymity and are not controlled by any shady organisations as far as I can tell.

  • As war and religion rages, Israel’s secular elite contemplate a ‘silent departure’
  • Israelis, in general, don't care about the genocide or are actively cheering it on.

    Indeed that seems to be the case:

    68 percent of Israelis support a direct attack on Iran if its Lebanese proxy Hezbollah continues launching rockets at Israel

    Among Jewish respondents, the poll also found 41% support for a long-term military occupation of southern Lebanon; 72% opposition to a two-state solution to the Israel-Palestinian conflict; and 92% doubt the Palestinian Authority could be trusted to stop a repeat of October 7.

  • What's a good videogame (story or gameplay) with out-of-this-world graphics?
  • AW2 is DRM-free. I imagine it can be run completely independent of Epic. You’d need the store to purchase and download it but you could probably even uninstall the Epic app afterwards. I haven’t tested this though, so please don’t just take my word for it.

  • KVM expansion card utilizes RISC-V CPU architecture for enhanced remote PC management — Sipeed NanoKVM-PCIe now available for pre-order starting at $40
  • Not quite. You connect this to your network, then you can remotely connect to it and control the computer it’s attached to. This includes sending ACPI signals, accessing the BIOS, etc. so it’s as though you had physical access to the machine, only remotely.

    Barring actually pressing buttons, of course.

    This is inspired by PiKVM. https://pikvm.org/

  • Square peg, round hole

    If the whole “square peg, round hole” BS was a valid argument for anything, all doors we go through would have to be shaped exactly like our own profile as we pass them.

    A post describing how to set up a Debian system for gaming

    Debian for Gaming

    I finally got around to configuring virtual surround, so I added a section to my blog post describing my Debian setup.

    This particular section is not in any way dependent on Debian and should work just the same in most distros that use Pipewire.

    A few days ago I published my Debian setup for gaming. Let me know if anything in there doesn't make sense or could be improved!
