Nit: It's not protected by DRM, it's protected by copyrights. It's still against the law in most places to violate copyrights, even if there's no DRM involved.

Thanks for your (companies) work on both this and graphtage! Out there question: Do you guys have any plans on releasing a tool which could be used for diffing filesystems? eg. Run the tool, run an arbitrary program which modifies the files

That's right. If you login to to GitHub even days after the spam is removed, you will see the bell icon with a notification about a since cleaned up thread in your feed.

Yes it's a game of cat and mouse, but starting out with a defeatist attitude, the cat makes things way too easy and the mice will simply roam free. Making life hard for the spammers can and will get rid of all but the most persistent.

While the specific names escape me, there have been a few projects over the years that have replaced DirectDraw or Direct X DLL files with re-implemented counterparts that tend to work much better on modern hardware. I believe in one such c

This appears to be filesystem agnostic and could be quite useful in scenarios where switching to ZFS is not an easy option.

Thank you for the great, free resource. Do you have any advice for people who are not in a supported jurisdiction? eg. Have you heard of anyone having success for using GDPR as an excuse to be removed despite not living in the EU?

In some circumstances there absolutely is a difference in the amount of money you will be entitled to in the case of being fired vs. being made redundant. It can be on the order of several months of pay. You will also see employers simply m

I consider the lack of effective anticheat as essentially making the game unplayable/abandoned, regardless of whether or not they fix minor bugs or localization issues.

Appreciate the insight, very disappointing! Sadly, TF2 is in a practically unmaintained and unplayable state right now and it's a game that is still beloved by its fans all these years later. Any efforts to inject life back into the fa

TF2: Source 2 takedown was particularly surprising to me. I speculated in another thread that it could be related to it being made in s&box which Facepunch are likely to eventually profit from. If you could make comprehensive clone of a

Man, this is disappointing. It's particularly surprising that Valve has sent a DMCA here, given their history of pretty much all their popular games originating from the modding community or prior art and the history of fan projects li

The thread mentions it, it's basically a MediaTek MT7981B with some extra components. It would be interesting if they can get all the things they mention in the < $100 price range that they're aiming for.

No, you are confusing file retrieval with file recovery. The reconstruction only needs to happen if some form corruption is detected (typically in the case of a bad/dead disk).

I agree that it's a strange example to give. This would also be like saying imagine you had a single Reed-Solomon code for your entire hard drive. That would indeed be very painful to recover data, but we don't have a single Reed-

I would normally not particularly care enough to mention a lack of license, but permissively licensed open source tools in the DB stress testing space are few and far between. Are you planning to add a proper license at some point?

Even reading that document, I think the answer is "it depends". For example, this[1] work is entirely derivative, created only using cuts from another piece of media and yet the resulting work is a complete departure and loses pra

I think it entirely depends on if those cuts constitute the creation of something that could be considered a new piece of original work. Sometimes the removal of certain scenes from a movie could completely change the way you think about th

Valid, but how much can you distill a model while retaining (or refining) usefulness? You don't need to know how to paint Rembrandt to draw an anime girl, and you don't need to know about the biological taxa of North American Duck

I agree for the most part, but there is also the other side which is how useful it can be. If you fine tune your model on anime girls, it becomes a very useful model for generating anime girls and perhaps it's now worse at drawing
