Honda announced they were walking away, but they never did.

Well, engine development was shut down for quite some time. The Sakura crew was reassigned to different areas within Honda, so these people were still available but the UK crew was transferred to Red Bull. A new UK base was only reopened in 2024: https://honda.racing/post/honda-racing-corporation-hrc-establishes-a-new-formula-one-base-in-the-uk

The majority of the 2026 Honda engine for Aston Martin is developed by Honda/HRC in Japan and HRC USA (formerly HPD, Honda Performance Development): https://hondanews.com/en-US/honda-racing/releases/release-63b0bd89adfbb0b817837ec2c5000f6e-honda-racing-corporation-usa-launches (no idea about the workload share since HRC UK has reopened)

I see it without the Honda more often than with

Then you didn’t look properly. The Honda logo is quite big:

I thought that Red Bull bought the whole operation and Honda haven’t really been involved at all for the last few years?

No, wrong. Never been the case. Honda builds the engines and owns all intellectual properties. UK facilities (where the hybrid unit was at least partially developed) were about to be closed by Honda and Red Bull took it over. That’s it and that’s why Lawrence Stroll could throw money at Honda to convince them to return.

Generative works cannot be copyrighted

While that is generally true, a derivative work of a copyrighted work is usually copyrighted by the original author (see remixes of music where the remixer only partially owns a copyright for the remix but the original artist does as well). That is what makes generative AI so risky. A court could order “This is a automated modification of work XY, thereby the full copyright lies with the author of work XY.”

Then use a free OFL-licensed font. Or cooperate to commission your own fonts to share among this consortium.

Really a non-issue if you’re not stupid.

Honda announced they were walking away and, IIRC, RB was scrambling to build their own factory and were going to make their own engines, with Black Jack and a hookers!

And that’s their 2026 engine, partially paid for by Ford who are allowed to stick their blue oval on it in a branding deal – the marketing blah blah is that it’s co-developed by Ford and RB but that completely false. Red Bull set up Red Bull Powertrains, bought Honda’s UK hybrid unit development center with all personnel and poached mostly from Mercedes way before Ford was in the picture. RB, Ford, F1TV, and Sky F1 will repeat this lie constantly but the fact is that for the upcoming Ford Hypercar in World Endurance Championship Ford needs Red Bull’s help and not the other way around which is why that hypercar is being developed in the UK with the help of Red Bull Advanced Technologies and Red Bull Powertrains (Ford cannot build anything more powerful that the Ford Mustang GT3 and even that needed lots of help from Multimatic).

A few years ago Red Bull successfully lobbied for an engine freeze. That’s why Honda could assemble a bunch of new engines without any need to develop it further.

Aha, didn’t know they still had a contract

Who did you think provides their 2025 engines?

Again?

This is a joke, right?

That happened a while ago though.

The announcement happend years ago but the contractual relationship is still ongoing until the end of this year.

He was given the chance to drive the impossible second seat and failed like everyone else.

Realistically he would have needed to do an absolutely outstanding job for Red Bull to not fire him. He’s only in that seat because Honda is paying for it. Same with reserve driver Iwasa.

Red bull is not interested in any Honda agents in their factory after Honda decided that they like being paid by Aston Martin more.

Are they bringing Mika back??

He’ll probably fill the McLaren seat after Piastri had enough of Papaya Rules.

sadly no seat for Tsunoda.

He’s a paid Honda driver and Honda decided to sever ties to Red Bull.

Steamworks SDK supports Android now. Obviously, should there be an official full Steam client for Android, the preferred route is for game developers to release native Android games with Steam integration.

No, Fuchsia is a completely new OS, not using the Linux kernel at all.

damn, I was fine turning it down before finding out it had AI at the core.

“AI at its core” is a BS marketing phrase. Obviously there is no AI in the actual operating system core.

Yeah my Bazzite definitely doesn’t auto launch Steam. I think that might be an option during setup?

I installed it in a VM and after installation Steam launched. Didn’t check if that persists after several reboots. Why would I?

Then I tried Aurora and with the exception of a Terminal app in Plasma’s quick launch panel and no gaming launchers installed, it’s pretty much the same thing, so might just as well recommend Aurora instead of Bazzite if the person in question doesn’t care much about gaming. It’s the workstation variant of Universal Blue.

That approach uses virtual machines. While that is possible (otherwise we wouldn’t see it), it is probably not really optimized for gaming.

Whether or not it’s optimized for gaming is up to Google. The technology to bring Frame’s ARM Steam client onto Android exists.

It is, but my assumption is that ARM-based linux and ARM-based android require a different codebase.

Writing a full Steam client for iOS or Android would be a huge amount of work independently from that.

it doesn’t auto launch anything on desktop

I installed Bazzite just last weekend and I was definitively greeted by a Steam client login window right after logging into SDDM. No idea what you’re talking about.

a fully functional Steam client would still be quite a surprise.

What’s running stand-alone games on Frame then if not a fully functional Steam client?
