Yes paramount that you and yours understand that the big publishers are garbage.
The RISC-V is an extensible ISA, so yes. All those vendor extensions are optional, when fabricating the processor, which can be replaced by other extensions over time.
Both Intel and AMD have had vendor extensions in the designs that they no longer use, even ones that have been “retracted” (i.e whatever in the heck Intel is doing with their AVX extensions).
But yeah, currently, there are a lot of proprietary extensions, which could still be declared as open hardware as well. So yeah.
They don’t want any downtime from tracking your ass.
You start to wonder how many CDN’s have been compromised in the past, or if they have actually been discovered. Maybe this company did it the stupid way and got caught and someone else has not been caught.
Also, aren’t there sum checkings implemented client side, or does the server give you the sum if you select the “latest” tag? I seem to remember there was some sort of checking, but I dunno.
This seems like a bit of a vendor lockin situation.
Find the make and model of your system and search for it with “Linux”. This is a really easy way to avoid big problems, and finding a suitable distro for said system. It sucks installing a system, only to find out a certain boot flag needs to be turned off, or some kernel has a patch your system doesn’t like. Avoiding all that or even going into the situation prepared is much less stressful.
It also helps to know that with the freedom of Linux, there is a lot of difference in how systems are built, and that is a benefit and not a drawback.
Well of course they did, either that, or they’d need to prosecute them selves lol
Uhhh pre-modern architecture is uhhh inherently uhhh socialist and is therefore uhhh classified as terrorists.
Neo-liberals, probably.
We’ve been trained to react to sales more or less, since before Steam… but what, am I not going to get that AAA game for $8 that was $70 3 years ago? I mean it sucks balls, because all good AAA games don’t go down in value - in fact, if we look at Elden Ring, GTA, RDR2, they increase in price over time.
If we had a piracy statistic, we’d probably see how much money publishers are losing at this strategy, and that the only way they can ever prevent piracy is by promoting authoritarian regimes that will take away your rights if there’s as much as an R2R file on your system.
So yeah, the gaming market is dumb by default. When publishers cry their salty tears about their intellectual property being pirated, my eyes roll back into my head.
You’re telling me a program you developed 8 years ago, that receives nominal updates, is still worth full asking price, even when the teams and the developers have moved on to other projects and you’re not actually putting that much money into it? Gtfo here. Oh no wait, that was rude. Let me rephrase.
Awwwwww :3 piwacy owie, UwU? Maybe adjust pwicing? No? No sympathy for you, because I don’t have sympathy for grifters.
Here’s a careful reminder that “public domain” is not a worldwide thing ^^; in fact, very few countries have a public domain.
In some cases, if you try to publish something as “public domain” from a certain country, it is invalid - because their judiciary does not define public domain as anything.
It maybe considered public domain, until you die and someone wants that copyright, in which case the family takes precedent over the estate - full stop.
There’s a difference between countries that have common law (US and UK) and those that have civil law (the Nordics), so yeah.
But CC is valid license pretty much everywhere, with a few exceptions.
…I get a “Forbidden” error on all those tags ^^; Apparently they are not publicly available.
BUT COOL! I’ll be giving Floorp a spin then :)
We’ve come a long way since FBI normalised warrantless wiretapping in the 1950s… oh well, on with the bomber jacket, off to some three letter building with a satchel full of love… in Minecraft.
Been using some extensions to get this done.
Currently using Sidebar Tabs. I have gotten used to grouped tabs, which is something I don’t want to give up. I’ve mapped Ctrl+Space to open and close it, which is super satisfying.
I switched from Sideberry, which was cool since it is so configurable, and that it can store and recall entire lists of links. I think this is a nice alternative to bookmarks, because it gives you a sort of link manifest, that you can even export.
Mozilla’s attempt seems… lackluster in comparison, but it’s still under development. So eh. Thinking of going Librefox, Waterfox or even Floorp - though that would be like going ESR.
When it comes to creative work, Creative Commons is the way to go. I know a guy who exclusively releases music under the Creative Commons license.
Here’s a “Chooser” wizard, that asks you some questions and then suggests a suitable CC license for you.
I’m wondering how much of that is just due to misinformation. You have to account for the widespread Zionist influence campaign that’s been going on for decades and that has cost millions.
From Zionists traveling abroad, to Zionists flying people in. A family member got flown in some years ago and ever since they’ve been a propaganda machine in them selves.
It doesn’t matter how many times I tell them that their talking points are factually wrong and framed in a manipulative way, because they themselves don’t understand it.
Brainwashing, when done right, sets it claws into the human brain something fierce. This is more apparent in some countries than others.
Use the ever loving fuck out of hashtags.
It’s funny how people weigh workplaces and companies that suck balls because the money is good… but also understandable that they go somewhere else when they can get a good pay and a workplace that doesn’t suck balls.
Ok, then let’s not think about it then. Seems like a good idea… /s
