    BachChain got a reaction from Cyber Raven in White House urges developers to avoid C and C++, use 'memory-safe' programming languages   
    Sure, your application will consume an order of magnitude more resources at a fraction of the capacity and be plagued by an endless stream of runtime errors. But that's a small price to pay for the peace of mind to know that when you're on call for that 3AM outage, it wasn't because of a double-free.

    BachChain got a reaction from jagdtigger in Yuzu to pay $2.4 Million Dollars in Damage to Nintendo. Citra also affected. Asks Judge to set Legal Precedent against other Emulators.   
    They don't. That number is probably Nintendo's estimate of all of the revenue from that project plus a whole lot of punitives. They agreed because they didn't have a choice

    Summary
     
    CNET, once considered one of the major technology-focused news outlets, has been heavily criticized for falling editorial standards since it's acquisition by Red Venture in 2020. After years of dealing with AI-generated articles and other "advertiser-driven" decisions, Wikipedia's editors have had enough and are removing CNET from their list of reliable publishers and are categorizing any article published since November 2022 as unreliable. Some editors are going further and pushing to have content from any outlet owned by Red Venture automatically marked as unreliable

    Another decade, another gadgetbahn that did nothing but steal money and attention. I wonder what Elon's next tactic for disrupting public transit discussions will be. Will he go back to underground single-lane highways that still manage to have traffic jams, or will he jump right over that shark and gun straight for flying teslas?

    Summary
    Microsoft has announced plans to end support for third-party printer drivers in Windows by 2027. Replacing them will be a single "IPP Class Driver" which utilizes the "Mopria" standard for providing a universal interface for compatible printers and scanners.
