on A Head-to-Head Comparison of Windows vs Consoles vs Linux in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 16 Sep 2026
These games all explicitly exclude Linux by way of anti-cheat. EAC and BattlEye both have functional Linux versions of their anti-cheats but choose not to enable them. The others are kernel-level.
Genshin Impact apparently does run fine, though.

on US government sides with OpenAI on issue of training LLMs on copyrighted material: »it is critical for the United States to ‘retain global leadership in artificial intelligence.« in c/technology@lemmy.world · 3 Sep 2026
To clarify, this is the government’s position, not the law. This hasn’t been officially ruled on yet.
In a lawsuit that The New York Times filed against OpenAI, the Trump administration has contributed a 20-page brief in defense of the ChatGPT maker’s unlicensed use of copyrighted material to train its LLMs.
However, it’s not looking promising in legal terms either.

on Best Buy 'repairs' customer's gaming laptop by simply removing half the RAM— claims unit in question only accepts 32 GB of RAM despite listing a 64GB configuration in c/technology@lemmy.world · 20 Aug 2026
My understanding is that it was a marketplace seller, not Best Buy themselves, who sold the laptop to the customer.
At least the techs actually made an effort to diagnose the issue and figured out that removing the stick of RAM fixed it. They’re not responsible for the sale of a laptop with more memory than the motherboard can handle.
All these marketplaces are a disaster. So many shady sellers posting the same items on every site they can, and nobody takes responsibility when an issue inevitably pops up.

on PBS broadcaster loses access to 50TB of data comprising 70 years of TV history after contracted cloud storage vendor goes defunct in c/technology@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
Reading the article explains the article.
Iron Mountain says the data is currently safe, but that OSS owns the hardware that contains the data so they cannot hand it over. The lawsuit is for an injunction to prevent deletion and retrieve their data.
It’s also how genericization happens, which can nullify trademarks.
