Something I noticed recently is that Sunshine has added support for XDG Portal Screenshare access, meaning on KDE you can actually screen share a virtual display without needing anything configured on the hardware. You need to use the xdg-portal capture method, but I’ve tried it out with my phone before

Not quite sure actually, I think we end up specifying a day or implicitly consider both of them

I’ve generally seen Sunday to be the start of the week here, my current headcanon for it is that Sunday and Saturday sort of book-end on both sides of the week, hence week-end_s_ plural

I’d received some communication from one of the banks here, which summarised the budget. This section is relevant:

Tax holiday till 2047 to any foreign company that provides cloud services to customers globally by using data centre services from India. It will, however, need to provide services to Indian customers through an Indian reseller entity, safe harbour of 15 percent on cost in case the company providing data centre services from India is a related entity.

It feels like an incentive like any other, to make data center services (not just limited to AI) hosted here. One can probably see this in one of two ways, GDPR-like data privacy or just general surveillance. I’ve seen data privacy regulations taking focus so I’m hopeful, but time will tell

Oh this has layers

I assume to dodge the oncoming bullet from the other side of the duel

Oh I just noticed the AI artifacts, the powerlines and license plate in particular

Is this…?

And we’re all the better for it! Needs polish and development of course, but it’s a decent alternative already

I mean, leaving aside their surveillance tasks, it’s still their job to ensure national security. It’s in their best interest to keep at least themselves and their nation safe, and considering how prevalent Linux is on servers, they likely saw a net benefit this way. They even open sourced their reverse engineering toolkit Ghidra in a similar vein

If I were to guess, it would be the additional pins. USB-C PD is capable of decent power transfer while also having enough data transfer capability simultaneously. USB-C docks are a good example, seeing that you can hook up a display, charger, other USB devices, ethernet, etc and have it all go through a single cable and (compact, convenient) connector. The reversibility is an added bonus
