Not the OP, but I maintain an extension for using keyboard and mouse on Xbox xCloud. I'd love to support Safari, and like OP I have it technically working as well, but as the extension is free and open source it's hard to justify

This doesn't sound like the core use case though based on the README - it sounds like it's used for enabling HiDPI (aka not-blurry) scaling on less-than-4K monitors. So, using native resolution but not necessarily 1:1 DPI.

Have you ever tried CapRover? https://caprover.com/ Would be curious how it compares to some of these.

I don't think that would be nearly as big of a deterrent in SF as you'd hope. It seems like nowadays any car that CAN be broken into will be.

Oh I have harassment stories as a male gamer too. Doesn’t mean male and female gamers can’t have fun with their friends online.

I don't think anyone in this thread has discussed one of the other important aspects of gaming: the social aspect. Especially in an era of "quarantine at home" - online gaming can be a very social activity and a way to make&#

Wait, what conspiracy am I saying is 100% true? If your phone was listening to everything you do all the time then you'd need a lot of processing to analyze it on-device and exfiltrate the critical pieces of info (which would be pretty

Wait are you saying you get ads based on things you converse about out loud in the real world because your phone is listening to everything in your pocket? You know that is a myth and isn't true, right?

Of course. That’s not my point. My point is that it won’t be effective at actually reducing child abuse as long as there are alternatives.

Pedophiles will just simply move to another platform now that this is public knowledge. Why knowingly expose themselves to the risk of using Apple devices when Windows, Android, Linux, etc. exist? Unfortunately, I doubt the (obviously) good

True, but probably not worth the hassle (especially with current GPU and other component shortages)

Interesting theory, although didn't they still make the DRM more advanced and harder to crack with each release?

Thanks for sharing your perspective. I happen to disagree with you on a lot of these things - but I guess I shouldn't be so dismissive about manually rerendering and assuming it won't scale to larger applications. Speaking to your

Sure, it doesn't react to assignment, but it still encourages the immutable data patterns of a more functional/reactive programming style. The docs for Forgo here show a lot of direct DOM manipulation and/or direct assignment

People always talk about separation of HTML and JS is a separation of concerns, but it's really not in my experience. It's separation of technologies. The JS has to grab DOM nodes by class or ID and is highly coupled to its struct

Like others have said - I think the documentation glosses over how the "rerender" function totally and drastically changes this from a "React alternative" to "backbone with JSX". The point of React is not the J

You don't have a "right" to a spot on their platform but you sure as hell have a right to complain about it and speak up against it when appropriate - which is what this piece is attempting to do.

I must say though that there is a difference between putting a disclaimer next to a video to provide facts/context vs outright banning it from being posted. Yes, it's not directly an issue of the first amendment, but it's sti
