I will be honest, i am fully against tiktok and everything it stands for. It should burn in hell.

…However, the law the us passed to ban tiktok makes no sense whatsoever. At its core its as bad as china’s grasp on a lot of markets. I believe a more correct way is to ban the practices tik tok does and ban it from federal devices. However, such a law needs more effort and would also get us-based companies in trouble.
But even then, its a way better solution to the problem

… You didnt read my whole comment did you :p
I said the same thing, but more neutral and political :')

I agree fully, but pushing for a law that basically says “apps from a list of 6 countries are not allowed here unless moved to the us” is a bullshit thing and forces them to give the us more power and control over the data. Hence my comparison.

I believe they should put laws in order a la gdpr to protect users from the data stuff. You know, the actual issue of tiktok.

Vlc has hardware acceleration afaik. I think its more a case of the ffmpeg codec not supporting it yet because what the actual fuck haha

I do this with my .net barcode parserbuilder project. I make a few comments on the pr for them to fix, merge it and then go over it myself to clean it up. This way they feel appreciated because its merged and the code stays clean and consistent :)

I think its more a case of trying to hold on to the market shares they own. Its been slow and in very very small pieces, but the fact amd has made their ai gpu stuff open source, have semi decent integrated gpus and have open gpu drivers did some things.
On top of that a company coalition against nvidia for a cuda replacement was started. Nvidia have to be careful in the next few years

What is this, a phoenix wright trial?

I dont know, could be used to target tv’s and embedded devices. A user has less control there and they have free reign there. Wouldnt be surprised if they knew this

And what if we have a ton of games outside of steam?
My next pc will probably have linux, and my current windows as vm. I will get them to work hehe

Figured as much, as proton seems to be focused purely on handheld devices needing launchers etc. But thats ok, means they are (hopefully) upstreaming back to wine

This stuff is why i love my 3d printer. Ive been using it to print new pads for my mouse ( tpu and resin as finish ), clips for my fridge ( pla+ ) and bits and pieces of my porch’ flywheel that is on wheels ( petg ).
And recently printed a fidget cube to keep myself busy with

You can but compilers will optimise that away unless you tell it not to.

I swear to god this didnt used to be a problem few years ago. However im having that bug constantly now…

It already has anyway. Ive requested my discord data once and everytime you do anything in discord it explicitly saves and stores the location of where you were when you interacted with discord.

I no longer have the data on my machine so i cant verify anymore unless i request my data again. However, i remember a discord server im in, enabled that accounts in the server needed to be phone number verified if they wanted to chat. This was done to combat spammers and trolls. i told them to bugger off because im not giving discord my phone number. So its possible my phone number was not in there, but knowing discord it could have been

This. What happened could easily be a 500 euro bill as they would stay at the vet for at least a day + the procedures to help cure the wounds
