Almost 15,000 nurses who work for three separate hospital systems have been on strike since 12 January, holding out for increased staffing, better safety in hospitals, and improved healthcare benefits. The New York State Nurses Association (NYSNA) has pointed to the giant pay packages that hospital CEOs have received, at a time when nurses say there are too few of them to adequately care for patients.The strike has pulled support from Zohran Mamdani, the New York City mayor, and Bernie Sanders, the democratic socialist Vermont senator, both of whom joined striking nurses outside a Mount Sinai hospital on Tuesday.

Freetube flatpak wayland AMD - hardware acceleration anyone?
running the stuff in the title, tried a buncha switches for chromium/electron stuff but still the load mesured with e.g. amdgpu_top doesn't show "Media" usage. playing other stuff (VLC, Dragon, mpv) shows "Media" usage, which means those are using hardware acceleration.
edit: in the meantime tried the portable version as well, same results so it isn't a flatpak issue.
edit 2: as @thingsiplay@lemmy.ml found, running portable and flatpak with --enable-features=AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxZeroCopyGL,AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxGL,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks under X11/Xwayland produces hardware accelerated video. that doesn't seem to be the case with wayland, the media graph stays at 0% and there's a buncha dropped frames with e.g. 4K video.
like this
lengau doesn't like this.
flatpak run io.freetubeapp.FreeTube --enable-features=AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxZeroCopyGL,AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxGL,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,VaapiOnNvidiaGPUsI can confirm this will use some "Media" activity. But comparing (unscientifically) the GPU and GFX in fdinfo, the utilization doesn't seem too different. So overall I am not sure if that is actually hardware acceleration. Also make sure FreeTube has permission for "GPU acceleration" under "Device" set with Flatseal.
[Bug]: Hardware Video Acceleration not working
Guidelines I have encountered this bug in the latest release of FreeTube. I have encountered this bug in the official downloads of FreeTube. I have searched the issue tracker for open and closed is...QuakeString (GitHub)

works with portable, media percentage is non-zero (dependent on resolution) but only with X11/Xwayland. running it with wayland switches works but nets a 0% in media.
doesn't work at all with Appimage; won't start with wayland switches. without them starts but media at 0%.
works with flatpak, media is non-zero, under Xwayland. ~~for some reason now won't start under wayland at all, possibly something I fucked up experimenting.~~ works under wayland but zero media use.
'run --branch=stable' --arch=x86_64 --command=/app/bin/run.sh --file-forwarding io.freetubeapp.FreeTube @@u %u @@ . I have uninstalled FreeTube, deleted the shortcut so it is created from scratch and still does not start. It only starts from either commandline with regular flatpak command, or when I create a new shortcut with the arguments run io.freetubeapp.FreeTube --enable features=AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxZeroCopyGL,AcceleratedVideoDecodeLinuxGL,VaapiIgnoreDriverChecks,VaapiOnNvidiaGPUs
ps aux | grep -i freetube then kill them if they're there. also flatpak settings, here are mine:

'run --branch=stable' which messed up the command... deleting the quotation marks runs fine now. Weird... probably a bug from KDE when I tried to add the other options. Well thanks, now it runs with the original shortcut again. Thanks for the screenshot, helped me seeing the issue instantly.
xlsclients in terminal, does it return empty? and if freetube runs in wayland, does it say 0% in media when you playback?
I don't know how to do a screenshot of the entire window that scrolls outside the view... i know skill issues. 😁 Well in Flatseal some relevant settings are X11 windowing system = ON, Wayland windowing system = OFF, Fallback to X11 windowing system = OFF. GPU acceleration = ON:
xlsclientsreturns "freetube"- With the enabled acceleration features using cmdline: "Media" activity is active (as soon as I play a video)
- Without the extra features: "Media" activity is 0%
Unfortunately if I enable Wayland (just reverse ON / OFF X11 and Wayland setting in Flatseal), the Media activity is unused. Following settings and results are...
X11 windowing system = OFF, Wayland windowing system = ON, Fallback to X11 windowing system = OFF. GPU acceleration = ON:
xlsclientsreturns "" (empty)- With the enabled acceleration features using cmdline: "Media" activity is 0%
- Without the extra features: "Media" activity is 0%
Stop using flatpack for open source stuff people, i will get tagged as the anti-flatpack guy but there is 3 threads a week for stuff like this.
Flatpack solves the wrong problem for the wrong people. Stop recommending it, stop using it and spread the word.

As someone who wants to approach car racing games, what would be the suggestion to start with?
I remember I played need for speed undercover and shift many years ago and I enjoyed them (shift was one of my favorite)
But I haven't been in the scene for a long time. I just want to casually play, because I kinda like the genre and I was thinking about getting a steering wheel eventually.
Any recommendations?
Need for Speed Heat and Unbound are decent, usually go on sale for dirt cheap. They are much more arcadey (which isn't a bad thing)
Forza Horizon is a great simcade experience imo. It's a good blend of realism and arcade style driving mechanics.
Dirt Rally 2 if you want to try rally style racing.
Racing games cover such a large variety of styles and levels or realism so it really depends what you like in a racing game.
There are proper sim racers but they are much harder to get into if you are just getting started (Assetto Corsa, iRacing, Richard Burns Rally to name a few)
If I'd go with a Forza horizon, which one should I pick?
Do you know if there's any Linux support for the game you mentioned?
I actually had a lot of fun at first with FH5 in the exact same position. The unlocks flow fast and there's a ton of stuff to tinker around with and explore, and the racing itself is very beginner-friendly. The difficulty settings and assists are very granular and can be fine-tuned to suit your skill level.
I particularly appreciated that it avoided a linear progression system and didn't make you start off on the slowest cars and slowly work your way up to the good ones, as it'll give you some insane hypercars right off the bat. The upgrade system and vehicle tiering also ensures that the "slower" cars are never truly obsolete. You can drive what your like, and the game never punishes you for it (in singleplayer, at least).
However, once I got through most of the single player content available, I started to sour on it at a certain point. The constant drip feed of new content in the weekly challenges was fun at first, but felt like a chore after a while, and it definitely takes advantage of FOMO, as the new unlocks in a given week are exclusive to that week and can't be obtained anywhere else, unless buying them from another player at often exorbitant rates. They do re-run previous exclusive vehicles in the secondary challenges sometimes, but there's no telling how long you'll have to wait for a particular car to come around again if you miss it the first time.
So yeah, your mileage may vary, so to speak, but I did put something like 300-400 hours into it before I dropped it for good, and I don't regret most of that.
However, I don't understand how the game works in terms of cars availability and if the base game is enough since there are thousands of dlc and in addition you, as well as others, always mention this weekly unlock thingy.

[Video] Massive 100.000 man protest march by Palestinians in the occupied 1948 territories against Israel
“The [Arab] public has no hope, they understand that the prime minister and the rest of the government ministers have abandoned them,” said Hadash-Ta’al MK Aida Touma-Sliman, who marched in the Sakhnin demonstration.
Speaking to The Times of Israel, she said the unprecedented number of people in attendance was only possible after the end of the two-year war in Gaza. As long as the war continued, she said, the Arab public “felt it was hard to talk about their own hardships.”
“Ben Gvir is succeeding in advancing a policy in which criminal organizations are a subcontractor for him,” she claimed. “He stands by and watches how criminal organizations control our lives and frighten the public. Rather than having political goals, they have turned us into people who are just trying to survive.”
After the march concluded in Sakhnin, national and local Arab leaders met in the local city hall to discuss how to sustain the momentum that led to the strike and unprecedented demonstration, which Zahalka boasted had 100,000 attendees.
The lost art of XML — mmagueta
There exists a peculiar amnesia in software engineering regarding XML. Mention it in most circles and you will receive knowing smiles, dismissive waves, the sort of patronizing acknowledgment reserved for technologies deemed passé. "Oh, XML," they say, as if the very syllables carry the weight of obsolescence. "We use JSON now. Much cleaner."
"Open source Windows" ReactOS is now 30 years old
ReactOS is a rather interesting open-source project that is considered by many to be a direct and free drop-in replacement for Windows, especially if you don't want to be locked in to Microsoft's proprietary ecosystem. One of its goals is to allow customers to run Windows apps and drivers in an open-source environment (reminiscent of Windows XP) that they can trust, and it has made many advancements in this regard. It supports Microsoft's FAT file system, Registry caching, native .zip handling, and is even capable of running Microsoft's iconic Hover! in fullscreen. Now, the project is celebrating its 30th anniversary.

Revealed: Australian taxpayers subsidising the IDF, illegal settlements in Israel
Australian taxpayers are subsidising donations to Israel’s military and to organisations operating illegal Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian Territories through a network of registered charities with deductible gift recipient (DGR) status, an MWM investigation has found.
Under Australia’s tax system, donations to DGR-endorsed charities reduce a donor’s taxable income, meaning the public indirectly contributes to the charity’s activities. Documents reviewed by MWM indicate that several Australian charities have raised and transferred funds to Israeli military units and to settlement-linked projects in occupied Palestinian territory.
The Chai Charitable Foundation reported more than $19 million in revenue in 2024, with the vast majority of its funding directed overseas. Registered with the ACNC in 2017, Chai says its purpose is "to alleviate poverty, distress and suffering in Australia and internationally."
While the charity says it supports low-income families and “civilian victims of terror” in Israel, it has also hosted fundraising campaigns linked to organisations that openly provide equipment to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).

Intel Confirms 14A Wafer Capacity Expansion Only Follows Customer Commitments
Intel's concluded its Q4 and full-year 2025 earnings call, revealing interesting things about its foundry operations and node selection. When talking about the upcoming 14A node, Intel confirmed that the node is on track for 2027, with yields that are in good shape. However, the bulk of the 14A external capacity Intel will dedicate depends on customers willing to sign manufacturing contracts first, before Intel spends insane amount of funds required to expand manufacturing capacity. Intel CEO Lib-Bu Tan noted "Engagements with potential external customers on Intel 14A are active. We believe customers will begin to make firm supplier decisions starting in the second half of this year and extending into the first half of 2027. We also have the opportunity to provide strong differentiation in advanced packaging, particularly with EMIB and EMIB-T."

Intel optimism wanes after disappointing outlook
Since the appointment of CEO Lip-Bu Tan, Intel has had the wind in its sails again. Investments from large companies and the US government, strong quarterly figures, and a restoration of confidence in its chip production contributed to positive sentiment. Now that Intel has set its expectations lower than expected for Q1 2026, doubts have made a comeback. Is that justified?

My experience has, generally, been great. You get the same minimal instability you'd get from any rolling distro but the stability you get from it being declarative and reproducible is fantastic; I, also, like being able to use my favorite programming language for my config. (and pretty much everywhere).
