This is why Python's logging module treats the argument as a literal string without performing expansions if you only give it a single argument. That avoids such issues.

See, I specifically remember Debian maintaners arguing that they "don't need HTTPS" on the default repos because it's signed anyway. Now it has backfired on them. (Of course, the better solution is not blindly trusting e

Sorry, but "others got away with it" is not a good argument. I would personally view your software as invasive malware, no matter how good your intentions may be. The right course of action here is to report all similar apps to Ap

This is the exact opposite of consent. People are being forced to install the anti-cheat software. While you may personally find it acceptable, you do not have the authority to consent on behalf of all other players, therefore it is not con

If it's voluntary, then obviously cheaters are not going to install it. You choosing to install the anti-cheat software on your own computer will not magically stop people you play with from cheating. Therefore your whole argument go

Persistence isn't anything new or revolutionary. Rufus and other tools have supported persistence with ISOs just fine for ages. Ventoy may support persistence too, but its main selling point is being able to put multiple ISOs and whate

by nyuszika7h 5y ago
You don't need Ventoy to enable persistence. I'm pretty sure Rufus supports it as well, which is far more popular. Ventoy's main selling point is that you can put multiple ISOs and other files on the same USB.

Supporting ISO takes basically zero effort. By dropping support for it the developer is just wasting both users' and his own time. It would be far better to say "you can download an ISO but I don't recommend it, here's w

Looking at it are a lot more questionable things about EasyOS than dropping ISOs. For a distribution that claims to be "easy" it makes even my head hurt as a power user, I can't imagine it being easy for the average user. &gt

It depends on your use case. The author first goes on talking generally about the rest of the drive being unusable, and only then mentions persistence. But Ventoy supports both, so either way the point is moot.

It's simple. Force it to go through the regular cellular network first, and if it doesn't exist (e.g. because you're on a WiFi-only tablet) or is unreachable then try to fall back to another app.

Work is not the only reason reason someone may use Microsoft Teams. People in school or university use it too, and they sure as hell won't provide you a "school phone".

Funny how the author complains about how ISOs make the rest of the drive unusable and then say they see "no point" in multi-boot tools. That is exactly one of the use cases multi-boot tools like Ventoy support, being able to store

Screen recording is handled in an interesting way. If you start the recording while in the Telegram app, it just freezes after the 3-second countdown and never starts. It times out after about 10 seconds. If you switch to another app before

Media DRM is not infallible either. Sure, it's a lot more inconvenient than a feature that simply blocks screenshots, but even the most secure hardware DRM used on Netflix, Amazon Prime Video etc. is regularly cracked, the methods are
