Jitsi is owned by a Campbell, California based firm called 8x8. Source: I worked for them during the acquisition.
Though admittedly avoiding US origin open source is unlikely to be possible

One compressed to the point where I couldn’t see hand sized objects. The great glories of social media cost savings
- Comment on ICE Agents pepper spray, beat up, and kill a person, after forcefully capturing him. 5 days ago:
Most of the videos are to grainy for me to tell what happened to his gun. What is clear is he had a phone in one hand and the other was empty when he was first attacked. That and that they proceeded to shoot him six times when he was aready slumped unmoving bleeding out on the ground.
Though given the New York Times is saying he was shot after the gun was taken without any particular weasle words I’m inclined to think they shot him without provocation.
Kristy Noem could descalate things a lot if she stopped trasparently lying.

Because the HDMI forum is ass?

That’s the problem. Open source software doesn’t work with the NDA. Nvidia does it with an embedded processor and closed firmware, Intel does it with an embedded Displayport to HDMI converter, AMD does it in the driver. Steam uses AMD chips and open source drivers so they can’t get it to work.

Fabs take like 5 years to spin up. No one is going to set up another without some kind of guarantee

- Comment on Valve Announces New Steam Machine, Steam Controller & Steam Frame 2 months ago:
Some games anticheat supports Linux. VAC, EAC, GameGuard, and BattlEye either run under Linux by default or can be configured to do so, by the game dev, with a toggle. A number: Destiny 2, Fortnight, etc. break it intentionally even though the client could run without modification. Battlefield 6 breaks because it checks the Windows measured boot API.

We regulated the safety of the driver with little regard for pedestrians. The solution is regulating what your car does to others in a crash

I have an entire note taking program calibrated around the ink colors of 5. I kinda dug myself that grave though. They are at least decent pens.

Nintendo got one guy’s paychecks garnished for the rest of his life. So even if you have no money there is a lot to lose.

Not sure about the last of us but helldivers had issues where it was available for purchase from steam in regions where PSN did not allow account creation.

- Comment on I found a weird IP address on my network that had transmitted an insanely small amount of data. I put the address in my browser and got this. what the heck am I looking at? 1 year ago:
Windows IIS probably from around the time of windows 8 so maybe 2012. Probably running on either windows server 2012 (like exchange, an active directory domain controller, or if you are unlucky sharepoint) or some weirdly configured appliance running windows 8 ish enterprise.
- Comment on Installation 1 year ago:
I’m a little concerned killing the main breaker might result in a sudden temperature change that might fracture the gas line. Of course if you turn the gas off you might get fried.
