That’s how it starts. Before you know it you’ll be buying no-name smart bulbs from Ali Baba and investigating custom firmware for full local only control.

Quite. Go to the big services that know how to moderate and maintain (and importantly pay for) a public square. But also encourage the interesting ones enable federation for wider coverage.
There are some advantages to algorithms for discovery - it’s certainly is more user friendly. It’s just a shame they tend to enshitify or become toxic. Bluesky seem to offer an API of sorts to plug in feeds you create. Perhaps open algorithms are more accountable?
QEMU is always going to focus on emulation fidelity first and there are few shortcuts. With floating point the differences aren’t generally in the numbers but in how the NaNs and other edge cases are handled. If you want to execute FP heavy code you should be cross compiling anyway.
QEMU absolutely will use hardware floating point where it can but only when it will give the correct results. FEX and Box64 are user mode emulators which achieve their speed by avoiding emulation where they can buy thunking at API boundaries.
Other way around. Loyalty cards have always been about getting that sweet sweet data about customer habits.
Btrfs never really worked out for me (I think default COW doesn’t play nice with VM images) and ext4 works great.
Pretty much. From v8.0 onwards all the extra features are indicated by id flags. Stuff that is relevant to kernel mode will generally be automatically handled by the kernel patching itself on booting up and in user space some libraries will select appropriately accelerated functions when the ISA extensions are probed. There are a bunch off advisory instructions encoded in the hint space that will be effectively NOPs on older hardware but will enhance execution if run on newer hardware.
If you want to play with newer instructions have a look at QEMUs “max” CPU.
Virt-manager isn’t super scriptable but the underlying libvirt can be controlled by virsh which is a shell interface to libvirt. You can use both at the same time, e.g. start and stop via virsh and access to gui container via virt-manager/virt-viewer.
It’s called vrms (virtual RMS) and Debian at least packages it.
Why do the $20 subscription when the API pricing is much cheaper, especially if you are trying different models out. I’m currently playing about with Gemini and that’s free (albeit rate limited).
If the system is SystemReady then the EFI boot chain is fairly straightforward now. My current workstation just booted off the Debian usb installer like any other pc.

Buy games from indie developers on platforms like itch.io. You may have a negative view of the other people involved in funding and marketing a triple AAA game but they all contribute and get a share of the retail price. You don’t get to pick and choose who deserves to get their slice.
This is the way 😉 although the Minecraft launcher is pretty good these days running under Waydroid is considerably less hacky as it’s not having to thunk between android and Linux userspace.
It’s interesting they’ve gone from a simple reskin to a downstream fork. I’m guessing there won’t be much of value to find though.
Basically your only other option is to find the keys for each BluRay you own yourself. I did go through the hoops a while ago and wrote it up: https://www.bennee.com/~alex/blog/2011/04/18/playing-blu-ray-under-linux/#playing-blu-ray-under-linux
However it’s a pain sourcing the encryption keys you need for each disk. While I work hard to prefer FLOSS apps over their propriety equivalents in this case I’m happy to pay the small fee for a perpetual licence of MakeMKV.
It works well enough with the rasbian OS derived from Debian. However pure Debian currently doesn’t have all the user space components to take advantage of the video decoder needed to play things smoothly. Currently I have Bookworm installed on the system but I run Kodi out of a docker image: https://github.com/stsquad/dockerfiles/blob/master/distros/raspios-bullseye/Dockerfile
Magic Wormhole - it’s been around awhile but it’s super useful for moving files from your internet connected server to your phone without going through multiple hops copying stuff to you local machine and finding a cable.
