This AI Tool Rips Off Open Source Software Without Violating Copyright

Malus, which is a piece of satire but also fully functional, performs a "clean room" clone of open source software, meaning users could then sell software without crediting the original developers.

🌟 Project Release Announcement Time! 🎉

I wrote a WebUSB extension for Firefox.

This lets web pages access USB devices (with your permission). This has long been supported by Chrome, but Mozilla has not wanted it, at least by default. Fortunately, because add-ons are a thing (for now. make sure to keep fighting for this!), it's possible to change that!

Common reasons for wanting this include programming microcontrollers, 3d-printers, smartphone bootloaders, and similar "physical computing" projects.

This works on Windows, Linux, and macOS

You can get the source code here: https://github.com/ArcaneNibble/awawausb

In order to make this work, you will need to install a small program on your computer. This is explained in the README. You can then install the .xpi file (on the GitHub Releases page) into your browser (which was _just_ auto-approved while I was typing this announcement up).

Please boost (if you want), test, report bugs, etc. etc. (although do keep in mind that this code is entirely written by a single catgirl)

i think this is the perfect type of project to drop late on a sunday / very early on a monday?

Found it

Ça devient de + en + bizarre.
Mesurer la "productivité" des développeurs à leur conso de tokens IAg, c'est un peu comme évaluer la conduite d'un chauffeur de poids-lourd au nombre de litres de gasoil qu'il consomme. Et la relation n'est pas dans le sens normal. Elle est dans le sens : plus tu consommes, mieux c'est. Et comme c'est dur d'en consommer vraiment bcp en roulant normalement, tu as le droit d'en faire des feux de camp le soir au parking.

More! More! More! Tech Workers Max Out Their A.I. Use.

At a number of companies, employees compete on leaderboards to show how much A.I. they’re using. They’re racking up big bills along the way.

Got curious to see if Motorstorm Pacific Rift would run well on a Steam Deck using RPCS3.
It is playable, but not perfectly smooth: framerate oscillates around 20 FPS with drops to 15 and rare flashes at 30 FPS. There are no visual glitches to report and it looks sharp once dynamic resolution scaling is turned off.
Nice experiment, but I think the experience would be far better on my desktop.
