It feels like it's just not possible in general to emulate the full instruction set of any CPU with an MMU with an acceptable performance to run modern software. QEMU running Windows for x86 on an M1 isn't very fast either. Only

You can't. The term "virtualize" is generally used to mean running an OS via hardware virtualization, where your host CPU natively runs its code but forwards all I/O to a hypervisor. You can only do that with an OS built

Do there remain any countries in the world where license plates on cars are not required?

IMO patents should not be transferable. And maybe they shouldn't be assignable to corporate entities, only to people. Multiple people at once if they all contributed to the invention.

Process is something that happens over time . We don't know what time is because it might as well be an artifact of consciousness itself, so this particular distinction between a process and a field feels pointless. Time might arise

by grishka 2y ago
Who said that consciousness is "private property"? What if it's actually shared between people, like a field of some sort or another dimension, but everyone somehow gets their very own part of it? We know nothing about the

The main problem with digital game distribution imo is that you still pay the full price, but you can't resell the game later. So you're getting much less value in the end. It would be fairer to price digital copies maybe 10-20% o

I should've said "true E2EE". On iMessage, your keys are managed by Apple. You effectively fully trust them (which seems to be the assumption in most of Apple products anyway). I wouldn't call this a "real" E2E

by grishka 2y ago
Truth is, E2EE isn't a "basic thing". It's an add-on feature that most people don't want. It is impossible to have E2EE that doesn't leak into the UX, and most people would rather have a streamlined UX than dea

When I was in university, I experimented with an alarm app called "sleep as android". I had set it up so I had to scan an NFC tag to turn it off, and for that I used a spent subway ticket I kept in the kitchen. It worked, until I

It feels like they wanted to make sure that no one distributes a modified "Winamp" that isn't built from the official sources, which makes sense, but they went too restrictive on it. The usual way to go about it is to say &qu

That was on the iPhone 7. Its internals really look like the decision to omit the headphone jack was made pretty late in the development cycle, so they replaced it with a useless piece of plastic.

- Getting a static IP and having your traffic not go through a NAT might be challenging or impossible depending on your home ISP. You can use dynamic DNS in some cases, but that's meh. - If you want to send email from your server, you&

The server knows which client you're using. There are indeed stricter restrictions for apps that come from app stores.

You would still need to turn the CPU off though. Or do you suggest replacing the registers and caches and all other volatile memory with this stuff?

Some restaurants in my city use a middle-ground solution: there's a tablet on each table (running Android, of course) on which you can order and pay (but that part is full of dark patterns, unfortunately). But you also still get a pape

Some have vulnerable bootroms, yes, but I doubt those can use this new restore process anyway

I don't understand why and how does Apple keep breaking stuff that has worked perfectly fine for the previous 24 years. Like, just don't touch it maybe if it already works? Also yearly major OS updates are beyond stupid.

On an Android phone, you can use AdGuard DNS-over-TLS server to block ads system-wide even on mobile data. Or install a browser that supports extensions or has a built-in ad blocker. On an iPhone, you can also use the DNS method, but Safari

It's just a reminder to install an ad blocker. Before I saw these comments, I had no idea there are ads on that website.

I remember using this around 10 years ago and liking it quite a lot, especially compared to Redmine we replaced it with.
