I have three words for you: read the docs. If you're experiencing a bug that pegs you're CPU, fair enough. But RustDesk is video-stream based (in many formats), while TightVNC is image(-region) based. This is actually similar to w

VNC and RustDesk are both remote desktop solutions, however, Rustdesk is considerably more performant than the VNC family, because the latter primarily sends framebuffer updates, while the former can use modern video codecs and temporal com

German culture is very functional, rigid, and dry, and it serves people with that kind of mindset very well. However, it clashes strongly with typical Southern cultures, so it is no surprise that the parent mentioned this. People who value

A firewall can reduce who gets an opportunity to exploit this, but does not make an authenticated RCE irrelevant. This access pattern is perfectly legitimate for hosted Redis services, for example.

No, that’s a flawed analogy, because this is an RCE. It's (like) having credentials for a network service, then exploiting that service to execute arbitrary code on the Windows host (of course the blast radius depends on the underlying

It really depends on the end goal. For personal tools that one uses, LLMs are extremely useful. But publicly used software doesn't only need to be written - it also needs to be maintained. And considering that it's extremely easy

The same applies to ray tracing; the question whether shadows can be rendered accurately and cheaply is also not knowable - but it's very unlikely that ray tracing will become as cheap as rasterization for the same quality target. LLMs
