I’d probably question your motivations before your arguments. You really can’t deny it is in the spotlight because we have elections coming up and this is a polarizing topic to mobilize voters with. Many of which will not understand any of

Try a less clear cut debate topic. One where intuition works against you. Like the wave of anti-trans legislation and framing of our mere existence as grooming in red states. It's much harder to see the outright wrongness and evil. It&

Half of editing is deleting superfluous words. But also, sometimes adding a few "dead weight" phrases can make text feel easier to comprehend.

I still prefer a product that works independent of needing to sign in (and share a bunch of data, some of it biometric), but I'm glad they fixed the google-like ban blast radius at least.

Haven't some people been banned from the store permanently, rendering SteamVR and sideloading useless too?

I'm not saying we shouldn't. I'm saying that's the status quo, and changing people on this level is much harder than a policy that simply says "you must have an underrepresented person in this batch of interview inv

VR 7-8 years ago wasn't gated behind a store and large EULA, and the people in charge hadn't announced their intent to not just monopolize and monetize social VR spaces, but also workspaces. There was still reason to be excited an

Have you ever been involved with hiring? The first stage - reading CVs - is not exactly the greatest point in time to judge people as individuals, if they're even read beyond a short skim. It is the biggest opportunity for unconscious

>The discrimination faced by Black Americans is because of their skin color, not their socio-economic status. They're a self-reinforcing loop. A lot of racism is affecting socio-economic status (redlining, no generational wealth) an

Disadvantage is not solely based on wealth, though it does play a large part. If you presuppose that giving disadvantaged groups an extra chance is a positive (your argument sort of does already) and only use wealth as a factor, isn't

Does it have to? Humans are really bad at being rational actors. The fact that some groups are less represented is a source of bias on its own. They can still be sorted out if they don't meet hiring standards in the second step, where

You just run them after you/your distro registers a handler for them. It uses binfmt behind the scenes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binfmt_misc (To be clear, this is for running Linux x86 inside Linux arm64 VM

As someone who has spent time on Vincent's mumble years ago, he is definitely at least fascist adjacent. And his use of slurs is by no means ironic, unless you want to claim he is ironic 100% of the time he is online.

Nothing prevents you from doing this live either though, except maybe if you need very low latency.

I had to switch back to Pulseaudio and compile the audio plugin for XRDP myself (that was on Fedora 35).

I've done this for a long while, and I always come back to the only two viable competitors in the space (that don't require enterprise licensing). Nomachine and ThinLinc. Everything else is fine for the occasional remote desktop a

Definitely not all. GFN is by far the most reliable and "native feeling" of these, but not just giving you a generic Windows install with some persistence is what makes it not worth it for me. I guess it's not trivial to get

While I agree that it is concerning, WARP doesn't decrypt your traffic unless you sign in to ZeroTrust, enable it in your dashboard and install their CA. Not much you can do about them having decrypted traffic for sites that use them.

No as a rule. They just replace your ISP with a VPN company. Which is the two is more shady is something you have to figure out, keeping in mind that a subsection of the internet just stops working or turns the aggressiveness of their anti-

speedtest.net used to have a sibling "pingtest" site that measured your jitter. I'm not sure why they don't exist anymore.

If you mean access and refresh tokens - both usually have a lifetime in the signed payload. Your access/ID token is short-lived (~5 minutes). This token is trusted without confirming if the user still has access. Your refresh token has

>Issue solved, right? Well, kind of, except you've just reintroduced a bearer token, because that's exactly what the refresh token is. Entirely missed the point that refresh tokens will not work when your app (or your user) has
