    What is the difference between the segmentation model used by Intel and the banking model used by a lot of consoles? I've worked with the code of a couple of NES and GBC games, and…

    I'm working on two projects: - TTZ: A sort of next-gen protocol for terminals. The basic idea is to create a dedicated terminal protocol that allows for more features and less lega…

    I did something similar on Windows by creating a "virtual desktop," where I can give the app focus without stealing it from another one. The idea was to basically reimplement Remot…

    Thanks for the suggestion. I was hoping for something cheaper since I don't need really high quality. For now, I'm using a bunch of cheap USB soundcards that are good enough, but h…

    I wonder if you could do the same thing in reverse and have a cheap way to get multiple inputs. I would love a cheap way to add 8–16 inputs to my PC; all the audio interfaces I fou…

    Personally, I deleted everything I could but kept the Gmail account for a couple of years with a forward to my new account, and after that, I also deleted it. Google Takeout is a v…

    Sorry, I wasn't clear. By old hardware, I meant peripherals connected to the computer via serial or USB. We are at a level of performance where running an entire VM as a driver is …

    I know that it is a heavyweight solution, but it could be useful for some situations with old driver/devices/applications. I have some old hardware that is compatible only with pre…

    Do you know of any games downloaded from Steam that work even once Steam is removed? I tried to search a bit, but I couldn't find any. I would like to test it for myself to confirm…

    I tried to search if it's possible for a dev studio to release a game on Steam that works without it, by which I mean that if I uninstall Steam, the games keep working; I wasn't ab…

    All (most?) Steam games have a very simple DRM that is extremely easy to bypass, and you can find examples on github. However, a lot of games add their own DRM and/or protection sc…

    I also did use tinc in the past, and while it was very robust it was not as reliable/fast on roaming as wireguard, BUT to be fair it may have been user error.
