Google multibillionaire Brin demands employees work 60 hours a week on autocomplete tools
Over the past few years, the tech industry has gone from cushy landing pad for STEM grads to a cesspit of corporate greed, where grueling hours are commonplace, and layoffs could strike at any moment. Unfortunately for employees of Alphabet, the parent company of Google, the squeeze is just getting started. ↫ Joe Wilkins at Futurism Sergey Brin, one of t … ⌘ Read more

Microsoft is not ending Windows 11 support for Intel’s 8th, 9th, and 10th Gen processors
About two weeks ago, there was a bit of confusion about the system requirements for Windows 11 24H2, because Intel’s 8th Gen, 9th Gen, and 10th Gen processors had disappeared from the list of supported hardware. This seemed rather drastic, even by Windows 11 standards. I skipped posting about it on OSNews because I kind of assumed it must’ve been an error ins … ⌘ Read more

My previous post included a video. I made that video with OBS which outputs .mkv video files.
I wanted to do my best to ensure that folks with a variety of devices and browsers would be able to watch the video if they wanted to, so, I converted it into a few different formats.
Here’s the bash script I wrote to do that. It relies on ffmpeg.

Flathub safety: a layered approach from source to user

Most recently, Fedora’s own OBS Flatpak was broken, leading to legal threats from the OBS project, demanding Fedora remove any and all branding from its OBS Flatpak. In response, Fedora’s outgoing project leader Matthew Miller gave an interview on YouTube to Brodie Robertson, in … ⌘ Read more

10 Weird Stories Missing People Told When They Were Found
It is such a relief when a missing person is found alive, whether they have been gone a matter of hours, weeks, or even years. However, the explanations for why the person vanished to begin with or stories about experiences they had during their absence are sometimes very bizarre. From strange crimes to supernatural tales, […]

Self-hosting my emails again: A few weeks in
A few weeks ago, I moved back to self-hosting my mail server after using Purelymail for three years. The decision wasn’t about cost – it’s actually more expensive to rent a VPS – but about control, security, and data locality. My mails are now hosted in Europe, giving me more confidence in their privacy, and I can configure everything exactly as I want while ensuring compliance with GDPR. ⌘ Read more
