If your friend thinks it's okay to threaten to assault a driver, especially for an issue that wasn't the driver's fault, then it sounds like "da hood" is where he belongs...

This is cursed: https://github.com/es3n1n/defendnot/blob/master/defendnot-lo... If you're curious what's actually going on there: https://github.com/es3n1n/defendnot/blob/master/cx…

Then why not just explain it? It would be far more persuasive than acting rabid.

Please keep the Rust community away from Zig. (I joke. Mostly...)

This surprised me too, so I checked: https://doc.rust-lang.org/std/vec/struct.Vec.html#capacity-a... "Vec does not guarantee any particular growth strategy when reallocating when f…

Yeah, if you're not an experienced developer with the necessary skills and free time to fix an issue then you shouldn't be allowed to say anything even remotely negative about it. …

Imo it's the opposite. Learning to use FFMPEG feels like overkill when OBS makes simple tasks simple.

Having never used such a language, I'm curious, what's the debugging experience like? Can I source level step the application in the original language or do I have to debug the gen…

Uhh, how about youtube-dl?

LXSS is actually the name used in one of the kernel drivers and various other components. WSL is just the user-facing name.

Counter anecdata. I monitor my heartrate (along with other relevant statistics like speed, distance, elevation, and barometric pressure) while engaged in activities like mountainee…

Isn't there some confirmation bias (not sure if that's necessarily the correct term here, but you'll get the gist regardless) here in that you're more likely to remember the situat…

So they need to take a huge cut to provide awful service regardless? Huh?

Steam's DRM is nothing like the DRM which is causing constant issues on AAA titles. Of course you can apply Denuvo over top of Steam's DRM, but the 'normal' Steam DRM is very easy …

Sure, but that's not what was up for debate in the comment chain you were responding to. That was specifically about how well it handles "recent" games. Not how well it handles old…

CS:GO is far from a "recent" game. It still gets regularly updates sure, but it's nearly a decade old and the engine hasn't evolved in that time in a way that would make it compara…

Because if I can just load my own driver before you load your anti-cheat driver it significantly lowers the difficulty of defeating the anti-cheat. Whoever gets into ring0 (or belo…

Is there something about HIBP that makes them more authoritative than anybody else other than having 'pwned' in the name? Genuine question, not being facetious. All I can find is c…

I'm not the person you're arguing with originally, but you may want to do some research before being quite so pompous. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leet#Owned_and_pwned >The term …

This is not true. Here, I took these screenshots for you where I copied an unsigned binary to a random location and forced a UAC prompt: https://i.imgur.com/BSJlSAf.png https://i.i…

Interesting. What OS and Firefox build are you on? Firefox always copies the full URI for me. (Windows, Firefox 69 - and I'm pretty sure I get the same behavior on my Linux machine…

If I had a PM come by my office twice a day to "check-in" I think I'd quit.
