I wonder if the Flash runtime can be rebuilt in asm.js, WebAssembly, or similar, and then made to seamlessly play the video on an emulated version of Flash Player but with barely noticeable changes to the user. One would think that this can

Part of the goal here seems to be about putting the responsibility on video chat applications to censor users who stream movies to a friend or two (perhaps because they need to practice social distancing). That way, we can continue blaming

Sounds like something a censorship advocate would say (or someone who dislikes the actual things being censored as of the current climate). Will you still believe the same way when the pendulum swings and it's the left that is being ce

Makes sense, considering that they're now censoring vendors from selling merchandise labeled "stop the steal" and probably other political messages to come in the future. Wall Street is not a friend of Trump. https:/&#x

And yet when more recent measures were taken to reduce cigarette smoking without actually banning it outright, those measures were pretty effective. They haven't done this for alcohol, let alone marijuana.

I have written similar code but with more optimizations. It's much faster to allocate chunks of memory onto the stack, then do small amounts of decoding into this stack memory before committing the memory back into the heap. I don'

The problem with your statement is that you won't know if you should or shouldn't be the type of person to do it, until after the damage has been done.

Are you really in charge though? Discord has deleted servers over political speech. It sounds nice and agreeable and all when you're calling them out for being "Nazis", but the fact is that there's no due process or chan

I feel similarly but for different reasons. It effectively killed forums, and the context-switch-heavy UX design enables more people to do drive-by, low-quality posting, rather than more deliberate and thought out discourse. Gaming culture

The upside of doing this way for Slack is that it's one way to not expose your account ID to every member in every channel you're in, the way that Discord does. Better for privacy compliance.
