Trying to play shadow warrior with a dualsense. It's interpreting the gyro input as the secondary attack trigger (no matter which trigger that is) and in turn the trigger does nothing. In steam input settings the gyro is set to 'none' but that doesn't prevent this behavior. Any way to hide the gyro from the game completely?

Edit: linux

They seem too small and consistent in size to just be bundles of system apps that got security fixes the past month. Are they like differential patches or something? How are they applied? And what happens while the 'finishing system update' notification is shown? (as far as I can tell the phone remains unlocked while updating, so why do they need it to be booted to finish the update? Is it just to turn on the phone faster?)

Web search returns 'what is an update' articles so I'm asking here.

Just saw this update. I'll quote from the previous article for a complete picture.

After years of legislative process, the near-final text of the eIDAS regulation has been agreed by trialogue negotiators1 representing EU’s key bodies and will be presented to the public and parliament for a rubber stamp before the end of the year. New legislative articles, introduced in recent closed-door meetings and not yet public, envision that all web browsers distributed in Europe will be required to trust the certificate authorities and cryptographic keys selected by EU governments.

This means governments could impersonate websites, effectively breaking https. Over 500 researchers and experts had signed a letter against the problematic article 45. In the update they got a response:

In a media Q&A given by the European Commission on Thursday (9th November), the Commission characterized the risks raised in the open letter from cyber security experts and civil society as a ‘misunderstanding’. The Commission went on to state that the open letter had been discussed with their experts, who concluded ‘there is no risk of government spying, nor breaching the confidentiality of internet connections’.

So they asked 'experts' who said breaking https doesn't lead to government spying.

We call on the European Commission, Council and Parliament to:

• Publish the final legal text of the eIDAS regulation as soon as possible.

• Ensure that civil society and cyber security experts have adequate time to scrutinize this regulation ahead of any legislative action.

• Be transparent about the advice the Commission has received regarding this regulation and who was consulted.

I'm so done with this. The fact that they can just:

1. Introduce an article that breaks https into a regulation a short time before it's voted on

2. Don't disclose the text of the articles for independent experts to look at

3. Blatantly deny what it does after it gets discovered

Without any repercussions is depressing. They'll just keep trying this until it sneaks past.

This text is subject to approval in the final closed-door trialogue meeting in Brussels on November 8th, after which it will be published and presented for formal ratification in the European Parliament. This is expected to be in the first few months of 2024, but this vote is seen as a formality with the text of trialogue negotiations typically being adopted into law without alteration.

Last week, representatives of the European Parliament, Council and Commission announced they had signed off on the eIDAS Regulation and that a vote in Parliament’s ITRE committee will be held on November 28th. We understand that although no changes have been made to Article 45, there were last-minute changes to the accompanying Recital 32. However, the EU has still not published the agreed legal text. There are now less than 13 days until the vote and the cyber security community, civil society and the public are still unable to read the proposed regulation, let alone scrutinize its impacts.

Finally:

If you’re a European citizen, you can write to the member of the European Parliament responsible for the eIDAS file - Romana JERKOVIĆ - and register your concern.

Edit: formatting

First off I'm on wayland with Nvidia and I know that's a cardinal sin but I still wanted to see if anyone else is having the same problem. Simply, steam ui seems to crash or go unresponsive or something in the background while I'm playing games and then it relaunches itself and takes focus from the running game without pausing it. Also when playing with a controller sometimes the steam ui and overlay becomes unresponsive to controller input (and rarely mouse input too) so I need to use keyboard to navigate. Also today the game suddenly turned black and when I alt tabbed steam ui wasn't there so I launched it myself and then another one popped up on its own.

Is this a known issue? I found a resolved github issue saying steam crashes if you don't click on notifications, but for me it happens regardless of notifications. Should I create an new issue on github?

Edit for clarity and accuracy

Pinching the screen (especially with single hand) doesn't reliably zoom images and I have to try multiple times to get it to work

Sometimes when scrolling it just abruptly starts scrolling up with massive speed. I don't know how to reproduce this issue.

In the bad ending of the game, you bomb some volcano looking region of the city with what looks like nukes to kill the dark ones. Got lots of questions about that. Why was that area glowing red? Why were the dark ones thought to be there while during the game they were quite close to human settlements? Or if human settlements are under that red area, doesn't bombing it also harm the humans? And why exactly was the objective bombing the dark ones while nosalises were shown to be the main threat to humanity? If polis station had accepted helping, would they also bomb the red area? I was under the impression they'd come to Artyom's Station and protect it manually. Also if those missiles were nukes, won't that just create more mutants? Are these ever explained in the game or the books?

I don't know what exactly the file names are, ls shows one of them as ''$'\320''"m'$'\254\032''V' and fish shows it as \Xd0\"m\Xac\czV. Inside the file is

[KCrash]
exe=P π¬V
platform=xcb
display=:0
appname= Π¬V
apppath=ίλ&ΝV
signal=11
pid=23560

I think this is something about xorg, but can't figure out what it is. Does anyone know what it might be and how to fix the issue? Also I don't know how to decode the file name or the strings in the file, so please tell me if they might reveal personal information.

I was looking at monitors and found that AOC AG325QZN specs list a 4000:1 static contrast ratio and a 80M:1 'dynamic' contrast ratio. It has a va panel, no local dimming and low max brightness. Does anyone know what they might be doing to produce this bizarre number?
