But don't the security vulnerabilities come from poorly implemented code? These vulnerabilities are not inherent to C.

I'm really surprised by the "hate" for C that is appearing in these comments. What ever happened to actually enjoying the danger of getting low level? Is assembly also useless because it isn't readable? There is a lot of

C is utterly predictable. Maybe you're the exploding chainsaw in this metaphor.

If you've ever listened to Rush Limbaugh with your conservative father, you can't go more than 15 minutes without hearing an ad for LifeLock. Their audience seems to be paranoid older people who don't understand technology an

Actually not gaming specific at all. You can think of it like a high performance remote desktop app that happens to work really well for games.

Luckily the video processing libraries provided by Intel/NVIDIA/AMD are cross platform (Win32/Linux). So the arm specific video processing code for the RPI is a different can of worms, the rest of the client (window creation,

We actually tinkered a bunch with Metal, it will likely one day be the default, but we went with the broader support of OpenGL for now.

Yeah, it can be used for in-home streaming or over the WAN. Making money, we plan to wrap up the cloud experience for you nicely and take a margin on it. But for personal use it will remain free.

Client side, we've already done it (we have a Raspberry Pi client that actually works well, but still needs a bit of polish.). Server side I'm not sure. I know the Windows API for grabbing frames is really good, and I assume there

I don't disagree completely. A certain subset of gamers (the hardware enthusiasts, pros) will NEVER use something like this. But certainly over wired LAN it does offer near native performance for most games, past the threshold where ma

I've played CS:GO from NY to Virginia with Parsec (to an AWS machine) and topped the scoreboard consistently (in pugs). Also did a 3 hour raid night on the new Legion content with it on WoW, lot of dynamic camera movement there. Cleare

On newer hardware (Geforce GTX 900+ series on the server side, recent Intel HD Graphics on the client) our system only adds 8-10 ms. On older rigs it might be somewhere around 20. Of course the network latency will go on top of that.

We've heard of something like this before, and while we're very much focusing on gaming right now, our goal is to make Parsec general purpose enough to fit into a lot of different use-cases. I see no reason why it couldn't be

Yeah, I hear you, we're getting there. Our next major feature release will be Raspberry Pi support with controller support.

You might be right about that. I still find though that the most daunting part about learning something new for me is grinding through writing the notes in on the sheet music then "sounding it out" going back and forth from my com

As a guy who is learning the piano but doesn't know how to read sheet music very well, I'm really excited about this as a learning tool. Would it be possible to show the letter notes next to the notes on the sheet music? Also, how
