Definitly AI written, but still a fun writeup.

Alternatively, as SKG suggested, Riot could post the spec needed for a server to communicate with the game, and someone could just write a server for it.

That will also make it entirely unfeasible for anyone to use their services. The cost of the tokens you could burn on a $200 plan is in the neighborhood of $1200. They're getting users now and gambling on the cost of compute (or the di

For what it's worth with regard to the Chaotic AUR, there's claims I've seen that they do vet packages updates going into it before they're actually built.

Assuming you're not pulling in software from outside of nixpkgs, Yes.

As with many things, this is a case of "it depends" - How you do it and for what reason, primarily. If you're reverse engineering code that's part of a DRM scheme for example, that's explicitly not allowed. Coreboot

You say that, but Microsoft has contributed to Wine! Both in terms of code and help, on occasion. Microsoft gave Mono to Wine, and while Wine has a ban on accepting code from people who have seen the source of Microsoft Windows, they hav

That's unlikely to happen any time soon, to the best of my knowledge the files between the two are largely different enough to prevent it. The Wii version is a Maybe.

IIRC the difference is the effective requirement of having it for the intended function of the software; To whit: Printing to a Bambu printer. It's a legal gray area but the general legal consensus as I understand it is that the dynami

I do wish Namecheap's Dynamic DNS support supported IPv6 though...

I actually use a capture card on PCI but I'm well aware I'm unusual.

Tying physics to framerate at all is a mistake. Like, should be filed as a bug mistake. There's no scenario in which that's desirable. And yet even Rockstar gets it wrong. (GTA V has several framerate dependent bugs)

The Vision Pro was a Development Kit; Just like the first generation Apple Watch. It's not meant for the consumers, it's meant for the developers among the consumers. We will see if they ever release a new VisionOS device, but it&

It's also notably not the first time they switched. They did the Motorola (I think MIPS?) Archictecure, then IBM PowerPC, then Intel x86 (for a single generation, then x86_64) and now Apple M-Series.

IIRC Sim City 2000 is one such piece of software.

wdotool exists, and global hotkeys are a thing under wayland, but is desktop dependent. KDE allows it by default, Gnome can be made to do it as well with an extension.

Based on the website they're banking on people thinking they were always a brand, and thus a lot of artists use their speakers?

If I recall that correctly, Atari didn't want to do anything about it because it drives sales for TTD and RCT (in the case of OpenRCT2, it drives sales for 2 games even, since you need the assets from 2, and can also import more asse

OpenTTD has had entirely their own assets for 15 years.

You're correct. It's part of the Steam Publisher Agreement that basically, you can't remove your game from users who have paid for it. And if you push an update that deletes the files, Valve can, will, and has rolled back t

As someone who has been involved in OpenRCT2, which is another Chris Sawyer/Atari game, from what I can tell, Atari has a very hands off approach to these things. We know they know about us - We saw their Head of PR giving away keys fo

You're assuming Apple is going to continue even supporting HFS+ long term. They already convert volumes to APFS opportunistically.

I think their point is more along the lines of the energy availability of Fossel Fuels allows for the Mass Farming and Construction that we do, not so much that we can pour it on a fire in place of wood.

To be fair - it SUPER does. Being down frequently makes your competition look better. Of course, once you have the momentum it doesn't matter nearly as much, at least for a while. If it happens too much though, people will start lookin

Just a heads up, Fireproof Safes are not failure proof, you should have that key securely stored somewhere else as well.

In a similar vein I made an account on ebay once years ago, and inside a day I was banned for "unpaid seller fees" On my one day old account that had never done a transaction???
