This kind of code is usually contracted out to the lowest bidder because the people that want to pull the scam/MLM/NFT project/whatever you want to call it don't have the technical skill, but can do the marketing. This l

A lot of open source projects rely on GitHub for their community, funding and discoverability. Dismissing that would be dishonest.

You’re severely underestimating the amount of people interested in retro gaming. “noisy nerd minority” is pretty offensive - companies way bigger than Nintendo basically rely on nostalgia nowadays. Their online offering is a ripoff and a di

This is the curse of open source - once you put the code out there, there's nothing you can do about it. Currently dealing with this with a project of mine, it's hard to see people take and "abuse it", but there's n

Trusting German rail companies to do anything sane or agreed upon is a fool's errand. Their leadership and structures are so brittle, things just don't get done. I say companies, because DB is split into 500 sub-companies that hav

Elon actually tweeted out a "Do you want an edit button?" poll... He's definitely going to weaponize this for public opinion's sake. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1511143607385874434

Excited to see that this is the way the project will be going forward, been using Paperless-NG for quite a while now and it's a pleasure.

Support real independent studios and self-publishing developers, they're the ones with the creativity and freedom to advance the medium.

Rich and famous Americans don't use Android phones, so it added to the apparent exclusivity - I'm sure it's not much more than that, their actual VoIP tech was a SaaS and it's easy to assume that they didn't actuall

I think the thing that makes TikTok successful is that it's so uniquely tuned to whoever owns the account, and that it catches up with your personal interests and preferences very quickly. Your experience on TikTok is probably going to

I'm curious, how do you see this as being adversarial to their community? It's not like they are taking down kotlin language servers, there are community language servers and extensions for kotlin in vscode and they're linked

It does, but SteamVR, which does the lense distortion/correction, isn't FOSS. It exposes an OpenXR backend that software can use though. Their goal is to implement this part for themselves/the Linux community, so their hardwa

Video streaming/processing is done by JavaScript or even wasm binaries in popular sites nowadays - only decoding is on the browser itself. YouTube for example also does elaborate obfuscation of parameters to their video CDNs, which giv

What you're asking for will probably put you more at risk than V8 does: 1) JavaScript engines with any kind of usable performance are inherently complex 2) V8 is hardened, battle-tested and fuzzed/verified by the best engineers at

GitHub before Microsoft notoriously shied away from innovating/iterating on their core business for years. We had half as many features before then. IMO feature wise, GitHub really has improved tenfold. I remember having to fight third

People should set up one of the million ways to recover your Google account... SMS, email, recovery codes, "tap yes on your Android device", I'm sure I missed some. If you pay for Google One, you get phone support, it's

I believe the person you're replying to is referring to the vanced team claiming that their NFT offer was a joke, not the concept of NFTs.

The people I've seen this target mostly use Chrome and aren't extremely tech literate - they'll hover the sign-in link, would see a real Steam or Microsoft URL and a very convincing fake popup. You really only notice if you t

Other projects like this on Android extract the official APK, then patch it and resign it on the device. Distributing the actual APK was a technical decision that now bit them.

Not really can't, moreso won't. It's embarrassing how small their retro games lineup is, so long after launch. And yet they're raking it in, because their extremely low quality online offering is so cheap that it doesn&#

VMs don't tend to be an issue anymore, since pretty much all VM software supports HyperV now. VMWare works great, VirtualBox is still in beta afaik. It's a recent development so you might have missed it.

Have you ever worked in the games industry? Anything that has to be done costs money and needs to be very well justified. Making working Linux builds and testing them is not just switching a compiler flag. It's a multi-week project tha

It explicitly doesn't provide Premium for free, all premium features but the picture in picture support are still locked behind purchase. The standout features are ad- and sponsorblock.

These are "standalone" versions, but they are also all built into Gmail if you have an account that has access to them. They do exactly the same thing on Android - Gmail has it all by default, if you want them separate, you can ge

To add some context, Gmail also includes a lot of the core workspace apps(chat, meetings, etc) if you do have a workspace account, which most users will likely never see. All of that isn't needed on regular accounts, I guess, but it&#x

It's just so bad. When games install and you can actually play, which is a miracle, adding friends is like navigating a maze. I think we spent 20 minutes last time trying to get each other to show up and finding what you have to press&
