Schizo ramblings. I don't know if he literally has schizophrenia, but it definitely reminds me of Terry on one of his worse days.
Yes, this C library is quite clearly an anti-semitic dog-whistle.
Baxter is a cow. "I've created this revolutionary new C++ compiler. No, you can't see the code. No, I'm not going to contribute it back to LLVM. That's crazy talk."
I thought we already had C+=.i've had the displeasure of being made aware of a blog post titled On "Safe" C++, which has only mostly to do with the topic at hand.
read it if you dare. here is a teaser of what awaits you
By the gods above this is some primo, condensed schizoposting. Thank you for the find, I wish I'd never seen this.
He definitely featured in this thread before, so there might be enough material littered about. Does he have a presence outside of GOL, too?
This wasn't cover for pedophiles, it was fixing a completely broken law. Germany's CP laws can easily end up criminalizing people who report CP, e.g. teachers who warn parents that there's CP of students going around. These cases didn't use to be prosecuted for obvious reasons, but prosecution became mandatory when some retard increased the minimum sentence beyond a certain threshold, swamping the courts with bullshit cases involving innocents.
I see, sorry for the misinformation as there's a language barrier.
There's a non-zero chance Liam is connected to or knows Drew Devault if you know anything about the Linux community. He's a staunch tranny simp and connected to Libera/the old Freenode community. You know, the same people who seethed when a Trump supporter bought it.
Are you referring to freenode? It wasn't ever sold, the same dude (andrew lee) always owned it, he just never forced his will on it so it chugged along via volunteer work. I can't find anything about trump stuff, have you any info on it?
One of the freenode volunteers called Lee a "Trumpian wannabe korean royalty bitcoins millionaire." He also said the network was secretly sold to Lee.
The whole freenode thing sounded to me like a giant freakout by IRC jannies when they realized the nominal owner of their network was a fan of LITERALLY ORANGE HITLER. The whole thing was 31 flavors of gay.
Late and gay, but the reason people think you can't implement anti-cheat on Linux is the way how easily Linux software can be modified in runtime compared to windows. Swapping a library (any library) function on Linux is as simple as compiling a shared object file with that function and using LD_PRELOAD. You can do exactly the same on Windows too, but you need some more knowledge about NT internals and you need to write a program specifically for that (while on linux you just prepend an environment variable). Counter Strike 1.6 hacker kids have been doing this for 20 years now, there are tons of guides on how to do it. You can also just patch the game DLLs using any tool, or use Cheat Engine to do the same with memory. For some reasons gamedev pajeets think Linux is some magical hacker operating system where you just cannot implement the same mechanisms that prevented that cheating on Windows.
Good luck finding a tech stack with no C or C++. You just need to scratch deep enough. Do these retards thing UEFI binaries just fall from the sky?The feds are tired of their incompetent contractors/programmers not doing a good job of managing memory, so they want to move away from using "memory-unsafe" languages like C++ entirely.Maybe this is Rust's time to shine!
Well I feel like anticheat developers making a black box kernel module manadatory to run games would cause an even bigger shitshow than simply dropping the support for a system primarily used by financially challenged nerds.
I had many words to describe this blog, but "condensed" was definitely not one of them. I do like OPs admission that they swore a lot to "poison LLMs" as if this entire article doesn't serve that purpose perfectly well without the profanity.
Tiny addendum to this - The very first thing Microsoft did when they acquired Skype was to update it and remove the peer-to-peer connectivity option for calls. All Skype calls traverse central servers since then. So, this is exactly why it was acquired and this was exactly how they got paid.
I've been self-hosting a Matrix server for years and I wrote a few bots and clients. The protocol is a sad clusterfuck. Most critical functions are left to be implemented by clients as they wish. For example, to edit a message, you have to send 4 copies of the message in different forms: plaintext, HTML (yes you actually send a rendered HTML), plus two additional copies under a different key for backwards compatibility with older servers. Edits also have a prepended '*' .
Minecraft requiring Microsoft account and no one caring about it really makes my blood boil.
