  • How long do we have before PCs get locked bootloaders and corporations ban installation of "non-approved" software? (for context: Google is restricting sideloading worldwide on Android ETA 2027)

  • If it is possible yes, but sometimes it is not or the other options are even worst.

  • WinBoat is a new Linux app to run Windows apps with "seamless integration"

  • You can. You can boot a windows partition in a VM. IIRC it is not really advisable but you can do it.

  • Only if that is possible. It is not a god cheat code. In fact even if something is possible it does not mean it is practical or doable in ones lifetime

  • Yes, because of bash license change from GPLv2 to GPLv3 apple refused to upgrade the bash version shipped with macos and kept it on v3.2 (last GPLv2) for like 10 years before eventually migrating to zsh

  • Then you will "love" to know that they can still charge the card after they have swiped it. I was floored when I noticed it. So you give the card and then they come back with your card and a new bill that has a place for you to write down how much tip you wanna add. You do not give your card again, you just leave the paper in the table and they will add the amount to what they are gonna charge in your cc. This would not fly in my country, I am actually shocked that cc fraud is not more widespread in the US with how "low security" it all seems. Once I went to buy something and I had forgotten my cc PIN (because I am now always using contactless pay and such), the person handling the register told me I can skip it, and sure enough, there was an option on the machine to skip entering the PIN. I guess the PIN stuff is new in the US and people are not used to it so it is not even a red flag to say that you do not know your own PIN and they even have the case built-in in the software. Shocking.

  • Is it a common saying the way you did the "Buh bye, Buh bye now" or you also watch Tara Mooknee content?

  • And Google throw it in your face and you have to be very careful about. For years when you Google something the first thing would be a snipped from a website, so if you Google "PayPal fee" it would show a snipped from a website mentioning a PayPal fee, but now the result in the same place and in the same style is a LLM response.

  • In my country is the same ways but the value paid is corrected when they do get the measurement, so if you paid more in the estimate you get it deducted. Not sure what happens if they can never get a measurement.

  • I loved the FF8 card game. It was so sad that you had to choose to used up some cards if you wanted some equipments if I recall correctly. It would be nice to not have to choose to keep all cards or have all equipments os spells

  • Great take on "Why don't more people use Linux?"

    Jump

  • That is why I stick with Linux if I can. Last place I worked I kinda had to use windows and it was a pain. The options for having all the software I needed was WSL or using the Linux servers. The servers had lag, specially over VPN and WSL was constantly crashing. As well as the whole OS and that shit that was teams.

  • It Might Be Time to Admit the Great VR Experiment Has Failed

    Jump

  • I don't see input being discussed as much as it should, but when modern games became very realistic, let's say Battlefield 4 era, it became clear for me that the current challenge for gaming is input. You can make an character animation do anything but you can't instruct it to the character, maybe that is why this quick time action bullshit is so popular, because you can make a very complex cinematic scene but you can't make the player give the input for it.

    That is all to say this problem is 10x worst for VR games. Like the biggesr benefit of a 3D view is to move around but if you can't do that in a natural way it kinda sucks, that is why 3D movies sucks, you are not moving around the scene. I guess that is also why VR works well with flight sims because in a real plane you are confined to your sit and can only look around. Now a shooter or other FPSs you WALK around and that has not being solved.
