From the usage section on their github:

Currently Virtual Display support is Windows only, Linux support is planned and will be implemented in the future.

No you can’t, because it’s Windows only.

The article didn’t mention it but he’s said before Interplay called him years later hoping he did still have it because they had lost it all.

It does not mean that at all. Nothing about choosing to release a model for free or not has any bearing on whether or not the app will respect the privacy of its users.

OpenAI could feel like they’re making enough money off of their proprietary model that they don’t need to collect data (I’m not saying this is likely), while DeepSeek could have released the model for free hoping mass adoption leads to more app downloads and more data to harvest. I don’t assume either has good intentions.

You think them already invasively farming user data from tiktok somehow makes them less likely to do the same thing with another app, and not more likely?

If someone stole $1000 from you and then asked to borrow $20, would you give it to them? Surely they won’t steal that too, they already have $1000.

I have no idea what point you’re trying to make. That means they have good intentions with the data they’re collecting about the users of their mobile apps?

I run deepseek locally so obviously I appreciate that they made that decision, but let’s not pretend that something can’t be given away for free with bad intentions. People running LLMs locally are a drop in the bucket compared to people just downloading an app.

I’m not sure why you added a question mark at the end of your statement.

I was questioning whether or not you would see that as a benefit. Clearly you don’t.

Are you also against libraries letting people borrow books since those are also lost sales for the authors, or are you just a luddite?

Because books are used to train both commercial and open source language models?

Has being non-profit been a legal defense used somewhere before? At least in the US the case law is based on commercial, profit-driven emulators being explicitly ruled as legal when Sony tried suing them. I see this said constantly and I think it’s genuinely just the result of propaganda from Nintendo or something.

Even being too lazy to open the weather app, there are so many better and free ways of receiving a message on your phone. This is profoundly stupid.

I wonder what the most popular/recognizable video game character that has never appeared on a console is. Up until a year ago I would’ve thought SHODAN but it’s probably between MOBA or WoW characters at this point.

I 100% did the same exact thing and switched back to my library to click the store page button.

It is on Steam. Maybe not available in all countries or something?

Honestly I think a Deus Ex remake would kill a lot of the charm, and it’s way more playable relative to modern games than the original System Shock.

I love JC but the game’s dialog would not hold up at all being delivered by real looking people capable of expressing any emotion.

This has no relevance to politics and I’m not attacking anything by saying forcing sign ups is a barrier to content or that you’re wrong about it having anything to do with bots, you dork.

No it isn’t, they are letting bots scrape the articles just like every other news site for that sweet, sweet SEO. Why do you think the archive.is link has the full article?

Still a wall between people clicking the link and the content.

How? The only way to prevent the site or the postal service from potentially being used for sending CSAM is indiscriminate surveillance.
