Isn’t Warren Buffet like 94 years old already?

I see a lot of people analzing his actions left and right but none of these seem to take in to account that he could just be preparing to pass on his torch in one way or another. From what I’ve read Warren Buffet plans to have his children manage and distribute his wealth to various charitable causes after he passes on.

Some of these could use “Nightdive” treatment like TimeSplitters trilogy.

Simple a PC version of the game with support for latest hardware and operating systems and support for LAN or self hostable multiplayer would give these games new life among people not interested in modern multiplayer games.

Well since they were/are hosting Mastodon instance they do seem to have some interest in the fediverse. They do also have official plugins.

Personally I feel something like this could be the next step for social link aggregation and discussion platforms. Being able to share and discuss on about videos and articles without having to register to dozens or more pages while also having some control over the people you interract with through instances, subscribed communities etc.

Source media would also be unable to control what can or cannot be discussed. Many youtube videos and news articles for example may block all comments. It would be up to community on how to moderate discussion.

Lemmy support would be much more fitting for Mozilla. They could add plugin or lemmy integration to their browser that could show discussions from subscribed communities matching the current url.

Effectively acting as a “comment section” but for any page. One would only need lemmy account to comment on youtube videos, news articles, blogs etc.

If you want to make a fan game, make spiritual sequel instead.

Nintendo can’t do much about games that are very similar to Mario, Zelda or Pokemon for as long as they do not copy any assets, (some) names or levels from those games. Based on the videos the main character is unique but most if not all the other art assets are direct copies from the original game.

It’s all fun and games until said system is used against you either by hackers, insider with mallicious intent or the goverment.
Albeit said A.I systems could also be used to get rid of billionares by simply exposing tax loopholes, tracking illegal transactions and by finding answers from any leaked data which will be more plentiful when such systems gets in to place.

Well JD Vance did say gun violence is just "Fact of Life” that we just “Have to Get Over” so surely the republicans understand this.

Mentioned Ubuntu since its backed by Canocial and fairly popular desktop distro. Mentioned Fedora instead of RHEL because RHEL is mostly used for servers and maybe in schools or high security environments.

You could consider Ubuntu, Red Hat Linux and Oracle Linux to be about as standardized as Windows or Mac. These distributions are usually what larger enterprises use for servers and sometimes for software development, IT operations etc. These are about as standardized things get in the linux world.

Now when it comes to using Linux as daily driver there are so many options out there and none of the distributions have really yet hit the mainstream. For my understanding it’s been long been battle between Ubuntu and Fedora with their derivatives but with SteamOS using Arch Linux would not be surprised if some sort of Arch based distribution with maximum Proton combatibility would gain popularity.

Arch itself seems too minimal to be considered as “standardized” operating system.
