Why? I was providing a solution. There's nothing wrong with using winelib if you want to port Windows software to linux.

But can you do that controlled and fast enough that the hardware doesn't notice? As far as I know, no-one has managed to successfully perform a rowhammer-based attack against a system with ECC ram.

At least ECC turns a RCE into a DoS, even if it's not the best situation.

It would probably be better to port packages like Numpy to pure PyPy[0], but of course the CPython extensions compatibility layer is by itself important to increase the adoption of PyPy. The problem besides the jit not being able to inline

Most likely those 5 transactions never actually existed. I'm saying this because it's a well-known problem that accounts sometimes gets flagged and you are requested to provide information about an transaction that never actually

I think there is something about "getting the driver signed from the dashboard", seems like Microsoft will sign it if it passes WHQL certification. But it is really hard to find any coherent information about how it all works. See
