South Korea's impeached President Yoon detained in massive law-enforcement effort

Summary

Impeached South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol was detained following a large-scale law enforcement operation at his presidential residence.

Yoon, who declared martial law on Dec. 3 to counter an "anti-state" opposition, had defied multiple summons for questioning.

Law enforcement overcame barricades and resistance from Yoon's security service, detaining him under accusations of rebellion.

The liberal opposition supports his arrest, while Yoon's party calls it unlawful.

Yoon’s impeachment awaits a Constitutional Court ruling, which will decide whether he is formally removed or reinstated.

Mike Johnson secures US House speakership after facing internal dissent

Summary

After initial dissent, Republican Mike Johnson secured the US House speakership with 218 votes, overcoming opposition from three GOP members, including Thomas Massie, who backed another candidate.

Johnson, endorsed by Trump, promised fiscal reforms, stricter oversight of government spending, and advancing an "America First" agenda.

His team worked behind the scenes to negotiate support, including assurances on budget cuts demanded by conservative Republicans.

Johnson’s victory avoids prolonged voting chaos reminiscent of Kevin McCarthy’s 2023 election but highlights ongoing GOP divisions over policy and leadership.

South Korean president says he will lift martial law after lawmakers vote to reject his move

Summary (updated)

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol declared martial law late Tuesday to counter "anti-state" forces, accusing opposition lawmakers of pro-North Korean sympathies.

Parliament, controlled by the opposition, quickly voted to nullify the declaration, calling it unconstitutional.

Protesters and lawmakers denounced Yoon's move as authoritarian, echoing South Korea's pre-democracy era.

Military personnel withdrew following the vote, and Yoon promised to lift martial law after a Cabinet meeting.

Critics warned of democratic backsliding. This marks South Korea's first martial law declaration since democratization in 1987.

Lutris/Wine: Odd video pause every four seconds

Update: I was able to induce this behavior to at least have a lead, on EndeavourOS (Arch btw) with KDE.

KDE System Settings -> Display & Monitor -> Screen tearing: Allow in fullscreen windows. Enabled by default. If disabled, I see exactly the same video pauses, on both fullscreen and windowed wine/proton-ge games.

Original post: How do I even begin to troubleshoot this?

Steam games work fine. Linux-native games work fine. In Wine games, the game video seems to pause for 1.5s, then plays for 2.5s. Audio is unaffected. It seems like the frames are lagged, not lost; when video resumes, the "missing" frames play back very quickly, like the video is "catching up". This happens even in the games' launcher windows before 3D rendering or GPU load occurs. Mouse pointer does not lag or pause.

This happens in both wine-ge 8.26 and WineHQ Staging 9.22.

The weirdest thing is that without changing any settings, the same games will run fine about 1 out of 20 launches.

Thanks for any input.

Red Dead Redemption 1 can't be played on macOS due to DRM

I was curious to see if the new (old) Red Dead Redemption can be played on macOS through a compatibility software (Whisky or Crossover).

But it seems the game can't be played because the DRM used on it ins't compatible with Crossover.

I'm curious if the already cracked version can be used on Crossover or Whisky. Has anyone tested it? If it works, then it's only way to play the game on macOS.

Edit.: Here is some testing that the game can't be played on macOS now. There are two ways of playing it: emulating the Switch version through Ryujinx or the cracked version.

LinkedIn scraped user data for training AI before updating its terms of service and without obtaining user opt-in consent

LinkedIn users in the U.S. — but not the EU, EEA, or Switzerland, likely due to those regions’ data privacy rules — have an opt-out toggle in their settings screen disclosing that LinkedIn scrapes personal data to train “content creation AI models.” The toggle isn’t new. But, as first reported by 404 Media, LinkedIn initially didn’t refresh its privacy policy to reflect the data use.

The terms of service have now been updated, but ordinarily that occurs well before a big change like using user data for a new purpose like this. The idea is it gives users an option to make account changes or leave the platform if they don’t like the changes. Not this time, it seems.

The 10 scariest horror movies of the last 5 years, ranked

cross-posted from: https://feddit.uk/post/17338767

There's a common consensus that horror movies aren't scary anymore, but that's not necessarily true. A lot of the time, many horror movies are either missed, fly under the radar or (thankfully) do end up getting the recognition they deserve. Whether they're acknowledged or not, there do happen to be many horror movies of the modern era that are incredibly scary and leave those who believe that modern horror movies aren't scary eating their words.

Horror comes in many shapes and sizes. Sometimes a film has an abundance of horrific gore, is psychologically bending or just downright disturbing in its visuals and ideas. Regardless of how, a horror film has many ways to be terrifying and all styles and forms of doing so are still utilized today. The last five years of horror have been quite good, and it needs to be acknowledged.
