Infuriatingly for iOS users, the only way to disable these promos is to either let them expire — which in many cases could take weeks or even months, leaving a persistent notification badge on the Settings app in the meantime — or pay for the service being offered.

Wario64 linked because the original is gated. This would be part of the 1600 layoffs coming over a 12 month period. My guess is any studio that’s about to ship a game, like Gears of War: E-Day, is going to be targeted most.

hi. i’m looking for an extremely simple selfhosted photo gallery software. i have photos from my laptop, a camera, and my phone. they are all rsync’ed onto my server. so on the server I have ~/Pictures/Laptop ~/Pictures/Camera ~/Pictures/Phone filled with JPEG/PNG/HEICs and no subdirectories.

i want to view photos from all three directories on a single timeline/feed, from the web (and if possible, via a mobile app). currently I VNC onto the server to run XnView and check each directory and this is a terrible user experience especially on a phone.

i don’t want to run a separate database or anything complex, so things like Immich or Photoprism are not an option. would be nice to be able to assign a tag to some images (“work”, “computer”, …) but it’s not a necessity. and i don’t need the ability to edit/remove images from the gallery.

i’ve considered rolling my own solution but thought there might be something already available.

thanks!

Full title: Microsoft director called AI scraping ‘the largest theft of labor in human history,’ while OpenAI head brands ChatGPT an ‘existential threat’ to publishers — revelations come from legal briefs filed in NYT lawsuit

SYDNEY, Sept 17 (Reuters) - Australia is considering barring the use of camera-equipped smart glasses in government workplaces due to privacy and security concerns, in what it said could be the first ban of ‌its kind.

The government will separately convene a roundtable of the country’s biggest employers, including Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab, Commonwealth Bank (CBA.AX), opens new tab, telecoms firm Telstra (TLS.AX), opens new tab and energy company AGL (AGL.AX), opens new tab as it consults on a set of guidelines for AI in the workplace.

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said it was important that Australia, which ⁠last year became the first place in the world to ban social media for teens, put the “right protections in place as technology evolves”.

“I am proud that Australia is setting the world standard for digital safety,” he said in a statement on Thursday.

While smart glasses have been lauded by some sections of the community such as the visually impaired, there have been growing concerns globally that the devices can be used to covertly record and photograph people without their ‌consent.

Norway’s ⁠capital Oslo banned the glasses in schools last month, and the federal government is considering regulating their use. England and Wales have prohibited the use of Meta (META.O), opens new tab smart glasses in courts.

Katy Gallagher, Australia’s minister for public service, said she had asked the public ⁠service commission for advice on whether smart glasses capable of recording should be prohibited in government workplaces.

“Smart glasses can raise legitimate privacy and security concerns, particularly because of their ⁠ability to record and capture information, and we need clear and consistent guidance for public servants,” she said.

Companies selling smart glasses are also facing ⁠legal challenges from the private sector. A German advocacy group has filed a criminal complaint against Meta and others involved in selling the Meta devices, citing privacy laws.

They’re not even the same currency at all, yet Steam or any other digital storefront decides to price a 80€ ($91) game the same as a $80 (69€) one when the conversions in reality are different to what the algorithm suggests. It’s reflected on Steam DB that Euro has a higher markup in comparison to US Dollar because of this, since I hear EU players nagging about paying 80€ at launch the same as US players don’t like paying $80.

It turns out you can make a really fast instruction decoder in Scrap Mechanic if only you can figure out a special bit mask for each ALU operation. It turns out this is really frickity fucking hard to do by hand so I told a SAT solver to do it and it was fine until I asked for all the combinations I wanted and then… This.

Also also it turns out using 100% of all 24 cores on a laptop for 8 hours makes for some heat issues so I had to limit each core to 50% utilization so it will take twice as long yay.

UPDATE: it’s been 18 hours and the best it’s got it 3.925%. If I linearly extrapolate, it will take 400-500 hours ≈ 2.5-3 weeks.

UPDATE 2: I’ve turned it off, as I don’t have more than a weekend to just leave my laptop sitting around.

SoftBank is set to raise more than $11 billion, in what will be one of the biggest junk bond deals ever, to fund a follow-on investment in OpenAI, per Bloomberg.

As part of its funding campaign this year, SoftBank has sold ~$15 billion worth of notes, making it the biggest junk-rated borrower in bond markets so far in 2026.

The new snake map is a little bit of everything, pushing, pulling, moving, static. I still haven’t found the best path. Thanks to everyone who played last time, your feedback helped shape what it is today.

A plan I have in the future is to pay homage to “Spacewar! (1962)” and add a PvP 1v1 battle mode around a gravitation well.

In my mind, there’s In This Corner of the World and The Wind Rises if I want something like a documentary.

For a narrative, it’s Attack on Titan Final Season and 86

I interviewed Vincent Lee, the creator of GetBetterButtons, for the third entry in my Artist Spotlight series, which focuses on people making physical things for the gaming community.

Vincent designs replacement buttons and controls for retro handhelds, but the process behind them is considerably deeper than I expected. He reverse-engineers handhelds, builds detailed CAD models and simulations, goes through dozens of prototypes, and even develops his own tools to help with the process. We also get into his aluminium “Endgame” buttons, how CNC machining changes what he can design, and why he thinks handheld manufacturers still get buttons and D-pads wrong.

There’s also a pretty interesting background behind the whole thing: before starting GetBetterButtons, Vincent worked in hardware engineering and product development at Bose, which I found fascinating.

If you’ve ever installed a set of replacement buttons in a handheld, were curious about the process, or wondered why some controls feel so much better than others, Hopefully you’ll enjoy this one!

I’ve been working on this solo for a solid two months now. Finally, I’m happy to announce that it’s now in a minimum viable product beta condition with the v0.2.0 and Season Zero.

Experience real physics while racing. By learning to play you also learn the basics of orbital mechanics, with concepts taught in an introductory physics class. Fly a space ship around gravity bodies in a server authoritative simulation.

In the video what you are seeing is a true slingshot being performed by a player who understands orbital mechanics to increase their relative speed and direction the most efficient (lowest time/fuel) possible. You can read more on the site if you’re interested in trying it out, thanks for reading!

Promotional

Im not affiliated to Fermi/Harmony chat in any way, im just a user who liked it and want to share my experience of the app i find worthy of sharing

so i wanted to share a promising project that I have been using for a few months.

made this post to promote and share this platform since it needs more people, theres arent many atm and it deserves way more.

Fermi/Harmony Chat is free and open source discord like guild/community centered chat platform with most of the features that are expected from those platforms like message channels, vocal chats, threads, screensharing and more. Importantly the chat platform has a strict stance against LLMs AIs and AI generated slop like vibe coding and other abusive usage of AI that replaces human work and slop it in the process. sadly fermi/harmony is unique of having a strong stance against AI. (other similar projects sadly uses AI and excuses AI usage and vibe coding)

the platform also allows users to create their own client for the platform. harmony chat is the API and fermi is just the currently only working client on the platform (was a spacebar client previously until harmony was created as a spacebar fork with the goal of fixing the many issues and bugs present on spacebar) and in the future, instances are going to be federated and the process will be managed directly by the client (fermi and other clients) without being tidious and for advanced users like on matrix, so more easy and beginner friendly.

the platform also is more lenient on its acceptable policy and have a no bullshit moderation. (sadly not the case for other alternatives which sucks very much)

IMPORTANT

currently the project in its early stage and still has lots of bugs, glitches and various issues.

it is currently only accessible through a web browser (there is no app neither on desktop or on mobile)

lots of features are not finished and the platform still need major improvements. but i hope it is going to grow and become a viable alternative.

currently there are around 800 people are registered on fermi/harmony chat.

fermi.chat the main website currently (use this one to register) melodychat.org the organisation’s website (its called melody on codeberg and on the website since harmony was taken)

codeberg link of both harmony and fermi :

The messages are polite enough. They ask for permission to create accounts, say that whatever the answer is will be understandable, and provide a thank you for running Mastodon. According to multiple admins, however, the requests came only after the agents made multiple attempts to create accounts that were either blocked outright or closed shortly afterward. Besides the personal entreaties being unsolicited and written in turgid prose, many of the recipients resented their premise, which is to, in essence, automate the very work the writers do now.

“Over the last three days I got over a dozen of these messages, offering to do my research for me in exchange for a nominal fee, around $25 or so,” Ernie Smith, the editor of the publication Tedium, wrote. “Each was sent under the domain iLands.app. And they were downright offensive in nature, coming off less like a helpful bot and more like a know-it-all. Turns out they’re just bots trying to keep their own lights on by trying to take my job.”

The messages are the work of iLands, a company whose website appears to be substantially written by poorly trained AI. While the independently minded Mastodon admins have largely blocked the bots, iLands agents have found homes on both Bluesky and X.

I know that I can simply make my own private certificate authority that only I and my family trust. But is there some public provider like letsencrypt that is in a free-er part of the world than the US?

Mr T explains why he’s late, but he wants to make one thing clear – this is not an apology. “You caught me in my devotion, and nothing comes before God. So I won’t say I apologise for the delay. I just want you to know that God comes first in all my life. For allowing my success, I give God the glory.”

He is here to discuss a new Netflix documentary, Untold Mr T: I Pity the Fool. At 74, he rarely gives interviews. But when Mr T decides to talk, he really does talk. What Mr T thinks, Mr T says. And I’ve never heard anyone trash the very thing they’re here to promote quite like Mr T does today.

The actor, former wrestler and cultural icon is full of surprises. Perhaps the most surprising is that he’s still famous. As he says, he has no right to be. It’s more than 32 years since he participated in a wrestling match. Thirty-five years since he had a significant acting role in a TV show. Thirty-nine years since he starred as BA Baracus in The A-Team, and 44 years since Rocky III – the only TV show and movie he’s really remembered for. And yet, somehow, he’s still a household name.

In the 80s, many boys and girls wanted to grow up to be Mr T. The A-Team was shown all over the world. This action-adventure TV series about four US army special forces commandos turned mercenaries became a huge hit and helped define the era.

The movie star George Peppard was supposed to be the show’s headliner. But much to Peppard’s chagrin, Mr T proved far more popular. His BA (Bosco Albert or Bad Attitude, take your pick) Baracus was a mechanical genius and problem-solver; a peerless brawler and human battering ram, who wore an African Mandinka-style haircut, rattled with gold chains and had a pain threshold second to none. In some ways, BA Baracus and Mr T were similar. In others, they couldn’t have been more different.

Flock Safety announced a voluntary employee separation program on Friday, offering a “generous” severance package to those who want to leave amid growing backlash against the surveillance technology company, according to an internal email shared with WIRED.

Applications for Flock’s voluntary severance program opened Friday, and employees have until October 2 to decide whether to leave the company. Flock expects to grant buyouts to the majority of workers who apply, according to the email. People familiar with the program but not authorized to discuss it publicly say they believe that a significant number of the startup’s roughly 1,500 employees may try to depart.

Flock is making the severance offers as it continues to lose customers amid growing frustration across the US about its sprawling network of license plate readers, which have raised concerns about privacy and misuse. In the last month, WIRED has documented officers allegedly abusing Flock to track former romantic partners and colleagues, exposed how widely some agencies share access to the system, shown how little is known about the manufacturing of the devices, and revealed in new detail how much information Flock’s cameras collect based on data from a dismantled Flock device.
