JS is a core part of the modern web experience. 10 years go MAYBE Noscript would work, I never bothered, you end up having to whitelist a bunch of sites anyway even 10 years ago.
Always NYT, Guardian and the usual suspects, always leftist stuff. Well of course Silicon Valley is infested with woke leftist BS, I should not wonder. I guess I am here for tech news and not politics, but it always comes up anyway.
Just from the heading "far-right" already a buzzword to signal to the left who the "evil" people are. And who determined who is "far" right. In propaganda news, this term is used for 10 years or whatever to describe everyone who dares to have a single opinion that is not left. "Far-right" is now used to everyone who is actually just right (often double meaning).
The heading also says "the left" so did the study compare an actual small group of "far right" people vs "the left". What were the metrics used for saying someone is "far-right"? And if they actually made the group small, then OF COURSE they get the outcome they wanted.
Or did the compare vs the "far-left"? Let me guess, of course not!
Or did they just compare "the right" vs "the left" and the Guardian just calls them that in the headline.
I frankly do not really care, I do not buy this shit. If someone wants to tell me in the comments guess I care, but I am not looking at that study because I know the outcome was already pre decided.
Only dump people still read the Guardian and other legacy media.
// Bahahahaah "Dutch study of tweets by MPs in 26 countries" says someone in the comments. Yeah, it's even WORSE than I thought. See I do not even to look into shit like this, I already know from the stupid headline it's complete utter bullshit.
Not sure if this only applies when people own a device themselves that runs the code or GPL 3.0 also applies to "managed services"
First, the heading wording feels like intentional clickbait to make at least a portion of people think they might be jumping to their death, they don't!
They build something up like there is something coming, some actual reason WHY they do it from that high. But they totally failed on delivering any reveal, at least in the video, did not read the entire article.
They made up to be some giant mystery, and I was expecting there is some kind of great reveal thing that has some kind of benefit, something evolutionary or whatever something, - nothing - absolutely nothing. Basically because they did not want to walk down a long way I guess, if there even was a way to an easier jump.
I would like to fire up a VirtualBox VM to try it out.
It does not help someone create the greatest thing ever in silence when nobody will ever know about it.
I am a big fan, but I think it's silly to hunt after every single detail and thing and try to find out "the truth" about what he really meant by it. Just enjoy the movies, have your own thoughts about it, and accept the fact that you will never know. It's a ride, just enjoy it.
This is some giant BS that is for sure. Some stupid, literally brain-dead AI searching things created by humans to determine what is a "fact". This is beyond dystopian crap.
We all know all the fact-checker orgs. used by big tech like Facebook and others are filled with hyper biased woke people who do not actually fact-check things but get off on having the power to enforce their beliefs, feelings and biases.
I can already tell this is total BS without even looking into it, what kinds of sources will it use? What ranking will they give them? Snopes? ROFL. Probably just uses some woke infested, censored and curated language model to determine a fact based on what has the most matches or THE MOST LIKELY because that how AI works. Has absolutely nothing to do with facts.
And it's even worse, we are literally in a time when AI hallucinates things that do not exist. I won't use a stupid AI to find me "facts".
But yes, open source is used more by private users and even in government the hackers may target it more. BUT Linux is already in use for like 99% of the internet, all datacenters, everything runs on it. Every big company, even M$ is involved in it heavily, they have their own Linux called Azure Linux or something like that. So it makes zero sense to claim using some shitty close source software they want way too much money for is better. M$ 365 bullshit might as well connect to some online services run by M$ ON LINUX that have bugs exactly that you mention that somehow then also make it to users of office that connects to the net for no reason. I think it's some software as a service crap now.
> If you say "well I didn't mean AC" then cool, but I had no possible way of knowing what you mean, or what your cut off point is, "anymore" is not a very definitive point in time.
So because I not specifically mention any title, you just make it about yourself and what you are to have worked on ... that is an incredible cheap and dishonest excuse. "Oh you not specific X enough so I just assume you mean Y." Silly.
> You can of course choose to not believe me, it's the internet after all.
See, and STILL you assume or are so desperate that I suddenly choose not to believe you after I told you never I was obviously talking about old versions that were proven to have an FPS impact. Childish.
If I wanted to argue against that I would mock you for working with en engineer from Denuvo on it, hardly and bias there ;)
End if the day face is Denovo still sucks ass, even if you can not measure any FPS loss anymore, dev remove it after cracks/leaks or even just time passed for a reason that is not just money, its insane bloated shitty VM layer that slows down the games' startup, bloats the games executables up to insane sizes. Legit consumers hate it and want it gone.
And I am aware that certain idiots on Reddit and YouTube post fake videos of more up-to-date titles claiming huge FPS loses, and they continue to claim even recent versions of Denovo eats FPS because they just want it to be true so bad, or they actually compare different versions for games where It's not about the removed D but about the updated game. I never made any indication that I am like that, in fact I made it very clear that I am not. If you actually read what I wrote, it makes your answer even worse. You are just desperate. Go on Reddit r/crackwatch or something like that you will find plenty of people you can fight with, they won't take you working with an Denuvo dev on figuring out supposed facts serious either ;)
It seems you did not actually read what I wrote. I put anymore in caps for a reason.
I never said any recent AC title or any newer Denuvo version suffers from any FPS issues. The loading of games (startup only I think, not level loading) is in fact still very much impacted, especially in the first run.
So all what you wrote is pretty pointless. Denuvo in the past in fact slowed down FPS of games early on as it was making calls the slowed down FPS on every single frame. People did the testing of games after they got cracked, and the cracked versions ran faster.
Literally everyone else in this thread said the exact same thing, they do not use it anymore because nobody needs it anymore.
Speaking of out of sync: Enjoy your self-satisfaction in using some ugly ass looking outdated software that has 100 functions you do not use.
Remind me when anything more than a slap in the wrist happens. And my definition of slap on the wrist is adjusted to how big Meta actually is, they make more than some countries!
You just hate facts, just like the idiots on Reddit, I am supposed to praise big tech criminals and just make positive stuff up, then I get all the upvotes.
1. Nobody will care in 10 days. 2. They will get a slap on the wrist at best.
Reminds me of Google driving around in StreetView cars, hacking and capturing all wifi traffic they could get their hands on. Did anything happen? Of course not!

The guardian says "open" networks, apart from the fact that in 2010 networks were not secured by default in many cases. I think WEP 1 was a thing and easily hacked, and I would not be surprised if they were actually Wardriving, on the largest scale ever.
I see no need for it for myself as even Windows has a default image viewer that is enough for me and I mainly use Linux anyway and every decent distro comes with a tool for that. Gnome and KDE both have their own that fit into the DE perfectly.
"https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-K6BVDSF3MT" is blocked and that causes the site to fail? If so, this is bad design.
Stop reading and believing propaganda. Well, learn to read first I guess.
And the solution for Ukraine is to keep their promise to Putin to stay a neutral state and not get sucked into the starting point for WW3 by the US and NATO. The solution is to start talking to Putin and make a peace deal and tell NATO to fuck off. The solution is not to be "taken over". Putin only attacked because they were going to try to become and NATO member, something they explicitly said they would NOT do. But of course you know nothing about the history and are a stupid NPC who says. "Orange man bad.", "Putin bad."
I bet you still believe in the Russia collusion hoax. ROFL.
What "unconstitutional act" is the AfD advocating for? German original source with quote or you are lying.
Some fun fact, the "political extremists" they are talking about are pretty much anyone who dares to be even a centrist. The AFD. Alternative for Germany is pretty much the ONLY party of name in Germany who is actually FOR direct democracy, something all the other parties HATE. Because they claim democracy is what they think is right, and the actual citizens should never really have any decision over things.
The current thread to democracy are the parties who try to ban parties and call everyone a Nazi who dares to be centrist or right wing. As a German, I know what I am talking about. Politics on the last 20 years have shifted to the left so heavily that we are seeing a well deserve swing back of the pendulum.
Let's just indulge this "lonely people" causing it for a sec. If this would be true, MAYBE it's because lonely people spend more time on the internet and actually read and watch alternative media and come to an informed decision about that they want to vote and advocate for. They may detest their culture being replaced with other cultures they never asked for, maybe they want some kind of "Germany first" politics (I just made that term up). Instead of going into war with Ukraine, people want the resources spend on Germany. All the other parties are PRO WAR, even the left and the green party are voting pro war and military intervention and aid all the time. They send our money somewhere else!
And who caused lots of this loneliness? All the parties who they want us to vote for, they introduced draconian covid lockdowns that isolated everybody and put even families against each other. They did way more damage with their insane unjustified BS then covid could ever do!
What is the difference between this and LE if true?
I would like to use a .test domain. I use that currently and just click "proceed anyway" whenever the warning pops up and It's pretty often lately.
Nowhere ever did it say Tech Demo anywhere, not in the HN headline, not on the page itself. No, thanks. And even as a tech demo, there is nothing impressive going in. It is stores shit to local storage, I guess. Lol, I just looked this up, and it was in Firefox on 2009 already? WHAT? https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window/loca... I never used it myself directly, but I remember reading about some API that kind of is the new version of cookies that can store more and better and I think that is it. 2009, I would swear what I think about was newer, maybe I am mixing something up, maybe not.
It has unnecessarily tracking from the comment above, not sure if it even sends all your notes to https://plausible.io, and I do not care. For me, this fails as a tech demo or whatever the fuck It's supposed to be. Sorry to not get all excited about everything posted here. In 2009 it for sure would ;)
