I think I need more info. It seems like userspace is very hackable, so thus kernel level anti-cheat was born to control stuff like synthetic inputs and manipulation of memory / frame analysis. This anti-cheat would be held together by the fact that the kernel/drivers are proprietary and not very easy to edit. Obviously still possible because it’s on your own computer, but challenging and invasive. Do I have that right?

In which case I don’t see how going back to userspace would help. What is the solution? There probably isn’t one outside of hardware (buying a hacking chip and soldering it in is annoying for most)

When I was doing game dev we focussed on AI-style analytics of user behavior. Of course a good enough bot could always look human. A real cat and mouse game wasting lots of time

Huh wow this has been going for a decade, uses Rust, and is run by the Linux Foundation now? That’s all very hype - seems like they need another couple years, but there is hope! I’m impressed

Yeah tldr is “rust good”, “ai overrated”, “i only care about the kernel and won’t answer your questions”

Wow this is epic and although intimidating, quite good to read and know

I got disrupted!! They are taking away my free speech by disrupting me!! On my book tour!! It’s a security threat!! I have to go!! Trump is the best!! Love you Elon, thanks for X!!

Well, a balance has been found. Prices factor tips in to some degree, that’s economics. Cash tips can bypass taxes, so that’s a little bit of a win for the employee, who both has a lower income bracket and under the table payments. Or if taxes are properly accounted, then the staff gets higher salary, so that’s fine. Staff also knows that their performance counts, so there’s a bit of a service quality benefit, compared to a restaurant where the staff doesn’t get tips / has no incentive. At the end of the day, it’s not really much different, you just remember that the prices on the menu are not final, just as you do for taxes, but the tipping model allows for flexibility in total cost

Truly a golden era

Arch is perfect, it’s like THE Linux. It’s not really opinionated about anything, it just helps you do it. Hell you can “pacman -S apt” and slowly become a debian

That’s the magic of it: latest software, rolling release, edit some config files, do anything you want, spend half your time tweakin’

I mean that’s the most likeable thing I’ve heard Vance say

But also I hate desceptive headlines. The headline makes it sound like they were buddies who hung out. Actually Vance was just joking about Mr Shaman’s appearance in passing. It’s not newsworthy

Well, he’s immune now so clearly he should just assassinate anyone who is in opposition /s

I’m down but if it can’t handle a 5s dc then rip

Huh weird that then he hung out with an extremely tattooed bikini model in that same show. Very awkwardly. In the back of the photo (see pic #2)

I just got a new laptop and was genuinely gonna try windows 11 and wsl for my coding needs. But in first boot, it demands internet to do updates. Ok, I connect to coffee shop wifi. Nope, won’t do it because it can’t handle the click through screen to accept wifi ToS. Fine. I take it home, where my Internet is great but has a glitch where it drops out for a few seconds now and then. Turns out that windows will literally cancel updating and demand I reconnect and restart for the kind of drop that I barely notice day to day. So I gave up, plugged in my ArchLinux thumb drive, and mkfs.ext4 before rsyncing my entire old computer to it

Yes! America does not believe in taxing people without representation. Well, except American Samoa, Guam, Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands

I’m kinda annoyed that this whole thing was pretty much a pitch for Tauri, and that’s a pretty lame looking webapp thing with typescript and whatever browser engine you happen to have lying around

Tauri is tryna be all like “hey look at our install size, it’s smaller than electron!!” … like anyone cares about install size much. The problem is the memory/cpu use of web apps, which tends to 5x a decent native app. Maybe one day, with webassembly…

I don’t think tablets are fully supported but I see gnome devs continuing to make steady progress there. Stoked for a future where (real) open source catches up to phones and tablets, we are close…

Well im kinda opposed to the supreme court as a concept, it didn’t even exist early on in American history, but it is what it is. The other laws will have to fall in like or Congress will have to act

Idk overall more jury trials sounds better than judges just getting to decide. I know it’s less efficient and longer, but seems to increase the chances of decisions being made with some humanity, rather than political bias in terms of appointments

(Not that I really know what I’m talking about)

Oh wow, I really didn’t expect this, and aside from all the problems with sex trafficking, this is a huge win for privacy… for now
