This looks like RTX versus Quake2 software renderer, so the pictures are somewhat deceptive as they do not use the more powerful original Quake2 renderers. I would be interested how RTX compares to the other Quake2 renderers that it origina

What does "opted out of contact" mean? I wonder if I am missing some communications because I unchecked some "don't send me spam" checkbox now!

I was pretty excited to see steadily improving GitHub integration. Unlike the others here, DevOps has been my most positive experience compared to a few others like Travis and AppVeyor. However, this confidence was seriously undermined when

Funny story. On old Samsung devices there was Microsoft PlayReady DRM. However, it was a random .so library file, with exports defined clear as day and a completely unguarded API. So you could take a Samsung Note 2, for example, and if you

No. There are two entirely different DRM systems named Widevine. Up to version 6.0 was old legacy DRM from way back. Widevine 7.0 is the current version, published only a few years back, also called Widevine Modular. This is a modern cuttin

Netflix has capped software DRM devices to 720p, although possibly they make exceptions depending on platform. Pretty sure PC is still at 720p cap, though (I don't use Netflix, cannot confirm).

Chrome and Firefox use Widevine DRM at L3 (software implementation). Edge and IE use PlayReady (which has support for hardware DRM, optinally selectable by the app/website).

In many ways this is an interesting business model - the author is largely acting as the financial backer and publisher, whereas everything from product design to manufacturing happens in China. I wish the author tracked their time spent on

I also like the "just give maintainer rights to people who submit good PRs" approach I have heard of. Used it successfully on one of my open source projects that I no longer cared about.

I do not see why scientists should be expected to play politics if they do not want to. It is great if China is willing to fund and host such a project. Yes, perhaps there are some issues in China but there are issues in every country.

Too bad. I recently tried Wiregoard and the installer told me that I need to disable Secure Boot for some kernel/driver reason. This immediately disqualified it from serious use in my scenarios. I expect I will try again once it is bui

FTP is not only file uploads, you know. What about all the other filesystem manipulation? You can't simplify it to uploads.

Company culture has a lot to do with it! I work with some airlines and Delta are definitely among the most innovative and open minded. Delta also do quite a lot of their systems in-house as custom development, instead of relying on packaged

BBC Space Race (2005) is a great 4-part series about this (albeit a bit overdramatized): * https://youtu.be/xcLphSY8PX0 * https://youtu.be/kefm18yAFco * https://youtu.be/UxTf-kWbYk4 * http

The linked article is a bit narrow in scope but a very good first start. I have been working with video DRM for quite a while now; feel free to ask me anything, I will try to answer topics that are not NDA-covered.

That works if you need to usually only work within a section. However, in many cases switching files can be more distracting than scrolling to a different section in the same file.
