Apple has always been about locking down the system and forcing the user to do things the way Apple wants. Not only within one device, but also in locking down inter-device protocols and removing standard ones, as well as obfuscating information about the hardware, not letting the users make an informed decision. And that's already after the fact that you aren't legally allowed to use the system on non-Apple hardware.
I think the point is that a reputable registrar wouldn't sell domains like these in the first place... But I'm not saying that's actually the case :/
WINE is not safe to run malware in, it's not a secure sandbox. AFAIK, anything expecting it can do anything a Linux binary can. (Also, not an emulator, it's in the original name - WINE Is Not an Emulator)
Isn't that clickhole? AFAIK NotTheOnion is for non-satirical media reporting real news that sound like they came straight from the onion.
You need to beat the level to upload it, and I suspect it's a clear check upload - however, separately, the game tracks first clear and world record after a level is uploaded.
My understanding is that the goal is to clear every beatable level that doesn't have a first clear (and some that have been cleared by known hackers, but I think those are all cleared legitimately already)
They probably already set it up to not happen in Europe
I think an issue is, this sets up your computer to have a way to bypass putting your password in on boot. If you don't care about security too much and don't have things like secure boot and encryption, then that's bypassable anyways... But otherwise, I'd be concerned about introducing systems that specifically bypass security.
I don't think that's a good point, since they make their own immutable images, so they can use whatever versions of software they want, and you don't normally get to update them with the rolling release
By the way, for editing server files consider nano. It's also widely available, has simpler shortcuts and displays them on the screen. It's obviously not powerful like vim, but a good match when you just need to edit a config file.
It is pretty well optimized. I think it might not be, like, genius-level amazing, but the devs care about performance and worked to improve it.
In the end though, it's a game where the entire map (as generated so far) is simulated - I think there's cases where chunks go to sleep, but it's not Minecraft's "stop simulating anything not next to a player". When combined with players building lots of machines moving many, many items around, you'll inevitably end up with some serious CPU usage. Not a problem on a decent computer, but I have had friends struggle on weak laptops, even getting dropped as they literally couldn't keep up with the server.
Oh, no, that's just the dip during working hours for the other timezones
The good thing is, on Android you can get an APK without root or anything like that, same for installing it, and you can use an emulator (or something like waydroid) to run it on a computer. For cases where the game doesn't use any more specialized servers, and just uses the app store for authentication, DRM, etc. the situation is no different from PC games with DRM - it's bypassable, and if done right, will work for all games, not just one.
That said though, it's very true for multiplayer/always online games, and those are very common on mobile. While it's possible to reverse engineer and rewrite the servers, for most of them nobody is going to bother. And in the world of aggressively monetized games, developers have an incentive to keep it that way - they can't make money from players who are still enjoying a game they've already squeezed every penny out of.
The implication of the meme is that the people talking about how stupid the protests are are actually blind to the very real climate change happening. They might know about it, but they don't really comprehend that defacing the Stonehenge is nothing compared to it being completely underwater, alongside the whole area.
Whether the comic is right or wrong is another thing, and the other guy arguing in bad faith is a cunt, but I strongly believe that's what the comic is meant to portray.
Did you mean to say "I don't have nothing"? Because "I don't have anything" doesn't seem to be a double negative
Could be because you replied to a random unrelated comment, instead of commenting on the post itself, or because you could've just looked it up easily, or maybe people thought you were being snarky somehow (especially since you were replying to somebody)
As much as I love being plugged into the internet, and definitely want to have the option to use a wire, I want to try wireless in VR - getting rid of the complications of being tethered by a cable seems likely to be worth the downsides.
It's not about it being fast, it's about it only being available for NVidia GPUs. As long as software for things like machine learning uses CUDA, you need to buy an NVidia GPU to use it. A translation layer would let you use the same software on other companies' GPUs, which means people aren't forced to buy NVidia's GPUs anymore.
That seems to be incorrect, and quite possibly originating from Tim Sweeney.
The only thing I found is that steam keys, which (as a publisher/developer) you get from steam without paying, cannot be sold for cheaper off-steam. The reason for that is obvious, since steam doesn't get their cut on keys, but they still have to provide the support and infrastructure for those users.
If you have a source on that claim though, I'd love to see it - I tried finding anything else on it once and failed.
I remember hearing that when AMD surpassed Intel in multithreaded performance, userbenchmark adjusted they're benchmark scoring to favor single threaded performance over multithreaded
I do think the phrasing is complicated, IIRC Hetzner moved from monthly to hourly billing recently, so they probably had to have legally well-defined terms while also wanting to do a monthly-based system in hourly terms.
Calling Arch a meme distro is unnecessarily insulting. I imagine the same applies to Gentoo, but I haven't used it myself. It's an enthusiast distro, for people who want to have control over how their system is set up while accepting the responsibility of having to set everything up.
I absolutely agree with recommending against it for somebody's first experience - but if you're willing to read through the guides and troubleshoot issues, you can learn a lot about how things work on Linux. It's the kind of distro where you will have issues, and they will usually be due to your own mistakes.
Sure, you can probably clone it - I'm not 100% sure, but I think laws protect that as long as it's private use.
You can also fork it on GitHub, that's something you agree to in the GitHub ToS - though I think you're not allowed to push any modifications if the license doesn't allow it?
Straight up taking the content from GitHub, uploading it to your own servers, and letting people grab a copy from there? That's redistribution, and is something that needs to be permitted by the license. It doesn't matter if it's git or something else, in the end that's just a way to host potentially copyrighted material.
Though if you have some reference on why this is not the case, I'd love to see it - but I'm not gonna take a claim that "that's very much a part of most git flows".
Cleverly cheesing rules is up to the game master's discretion, while transforming into a whale sounds like a very reasonable, if overpowered, interaction, the peasant rail gun wouldn't fly in most campaigns. Not that it makes it any less hilarious.
If they are competent, the website doesn't communicate with OpenAI directly - instead you're sending messages to their servers, and they add extra text to the prompts before sending requests to OpenAI, before they return the replies to your browser.
So no, probably not.
This is from before my times, but... Deploying an app by uploading a pre built bundle? If it's a fully self-contained package, that seems good to me, perhaps better than many websites today...
Oh god, please no, that's too real
That's not really right, because verifying solutions is usually much easier than finding them. A calculator that can take in arbitrary sets of formulas and produce answers for variables, but is sometimes wrong, is an entirely different beast than a calculator that can plug values into variables and evaluate expressions to check if they're correct.
As a matter of fact, I'm pretty sure that argument would also make quantum computing pointless - because quantum computers are probability based and can provide answers for difficult problems, but not consistently, so you want to use a regular computer to verify those answers.
Perhaps a better comparison would be a dictionary that can explain entire sentences, but requires you to then check each word in a regular dictionary and make sure it didn't mix them up completely? Though I guess that's actually exactly how LLMs operate...
Windows 10. The reason I switched was pretty funny - I had previously bought a cheap SSD and moved my install over to it, and installed Arch on my HDD hoping to experiment with it.
I never really did that, but one day before Christmas my computer booted straight to Arch to my confusion, and after a while I figured out my SSD failed. I ended up installing gnome to have something to use in the meanwhile, since I wasn't gonna be buying a new SSD in the next few days, but then I just decided to stick with Linux. As I learned more about it I realised I was barely missing anything, and I preferred Linux for what I had.
Maybe not a rite of passage, but a good learning experience if you want to know what goes into your system! I'd recommend trying it to those who want to get more out of their system and know what they're using... Though I also wouldn't recommend Arch to people who don't want that.
I'd say it would be more clickbaity if you just removed the "TV", because it'd make you think of smartphones, and those would be much more concerning
To think some people would instead ridicule others when you can have so much fun together...
Git might not count because you can have branches that then merge? But yeah, git is useful, it's decentralized and distributed, it could be used P2P...
Why did you link a blog post from 2011?
Mind you, emoji were created in Japan, so a lot of the original ones can be weird to us due to cultural differences.
As a tech mod player, they hold exactly 1000mB of water
To me that's part of the ideology I associate with Arch. If you actually use -h in pacman, I find that the help is presented in a nice and contextual way. You only need a few commands on a daily basis, and most of the other things you might need are easy to figure out when you need them.
In regard to -S being confusing, I think it's basically making the external operations map to how the software works internally. I feel like learning what the software is doing, rather than expecting the software to hide away the details, is also part of it. When you want to do more complex operations, or when something breaks, you'll have a better understanding of what happened.
I wouldn't mind a better interface, I'm not claiming it's the best it can be or even close to it, but I wouldn't want the improvement to come at the cost of obscuring how the software works. I don't want the commands categorized just by convenience rather than logic, or magic buttons that automatically perform a sequence of hidden operations. I want something I can learn, understand, commands I can dissect into their components, not something I'm expected to use in the 10 ways provided and hope it does what I need.
I see this in the same way as people tend to use git - some GUIs will offer convenient buttons with their own made up names, and when git throws an unexpected error, the user will have no idea what the error means, or what the software did to get there.
People often complain that git doesn't make sense. They might have a point in terms of it being unintuitive... But I find that with a general understanding how it's built and what the commands do, the complaints are often people trying to force the issue using the wrong tool for the job.
And, honestly, sorry for the rant. In the end it's just my opinion, I don't want to force it on anybody, I just started writing and kept finding things I wanted to elaborate on. If you're reading this, I hope you have a good day!
PDFs are... Not an image format? It's a document format that is difficult to edit, and thus mostly meant to be read-only, but a document nonetheless.
An image viewer can't open a pdf, unless for some ungodly reason it also has a whole pdf reader built into it, which just sounds inane. Defaulting to a browser is icky, and I think stems from browsers having gotten good PDF support before Microsoft could figure it out. This is something that ideally belongs to a reader, either dedicated to PDF, or supporting similar formats, be it documents or ebooks.
That's like saying that a 3D project file is basically an image format, if it's built to be rendered out from a viewpoint into an image.
Except you might want a client, both to keep your games in one place, and for extra features it can provide (like cloud saves and updates) - and if you're on Linux, you're excluded from that kind of stuff on GOG.
I do believe it's illegal if they take a repository with a restrictive license (which includes any repository without a license), and then make it available on their own service. I think China just doesn't care.
