Data privacy AND not having to deal with more bullshit AI? Oh my, how will we ever cope with this… /s

Can you at least wait for me to die before taking me to hell, Satan?

Not sure if I’m just missing a reference here, but if you choose the pizza you can have both.

I’m so impressed that this is a thing

Which is basically what trump argues he is.

It is. It also happens to be undefined, and checking that for truth is how I was bitten.

My dude, you need to understand that all that anger and resentment, it is not you. It’s the years of JavaScript poisoning your mind.

In any case, that goes to my point. I would have to be saved by my IDE, when any sane language will blow up in your face as soon as you try to run it.

I spent way too long today figuring out why my app was doing something that it’s NOT supposed to do on weekends.

I read Luxon’s docs (pretty cool lib tbh) again and again, and tried everything I could think of to get isWeekend to return a sane result.

Turns out I was pulling a somewhat older version of Luxon, where isWeekend didn’t exist. In any sane language, I expect I’d get a huge warning about a property that doesn’t exist, but alas…

Typescript helps me keep my sanity, but juuuuust barely.

Google says that “regulatory requirements” have led to this decision, presumably referring to the EU’s Digital Markets Act or other recent legislation. The precise reason isn’t mentioned by Google.

What are those clock faces doing, Google?

WHAT. ARE. THEY. DOING?!

I’m convinced Trump’s mind doesn’t work like that, and that his memories are heavily slanted by how he perceived his role in the event. Others’ roles or the factual details are arranged automatically by his brain to fill this role he sees himself playing.

No one surely ever challenged him on his constant nonsense, so he’s had a lifetime of reinforcement over this behaviour.

As he’s aging however the detachment between his perception and recollection of an event is growing much larger, and the result is these wild made-up tales…

Ehehehehhehehhe!!! Thanks for the entertainment!

By now it’s clear that it’s your reading comprehension that is lacking, you aren’t fully understanding the responses you’re getting. Perhaps you’re not a native speaker…

You’re a special kind of person, aren’t you?

This far down, and you keep demanding that someone answers you about why “they” are liberals, behaving as if the universe owes you answers.

Sympathetic with your deluded but apparently honest ignorance, @RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world did their best by sharing an anecdote that demonstrates that, while possible that “they” are liberals because the issues directly impacting “them”, that may not necessarily be the case.

Alas, it was then that we came to find that you just wanted to hear yourself talk while petulantly dismissing others’ thoughts.

The story developed unexpectedly however, as this behaviour was accurately and immediately pointed out, and this led to a series of increasingly irate comments, likely caused by a mounting sense of frustration stemming from the inability to rebuff such accurate criticism. We’re sure to see an escalation from the passive aggression initially being employed into more open and direct insults, as a welling sense of dread about being outwitted threatens to set in.

Stay tuned!

Hell nah. They cannot be the sole gatekeepers, alternative app stores that are outside of Apple’s control need to exist.

Paternity tests can be done during pregnancy…

Brother, this law is just deranged. Trapping people in a marriage is not OK.

Divorce includes agreements over custody, why not consider an expected child into that as well?

So you’re saying the DMA wasn’t created specifically to fuck over small content creators? TIL

I feel like you missed the point.

Webengines are not more complex than a full OS, and yet, Linux works as a community driven project and Chromium does not.

The difference is that Linus is the one with final say in Linux, and he never sold out to a company. Chromium is Google.

It will never be a “community” project, because Google pumps so many resources into it. The goal is obvious: to make sure that it’s always ahead of any competitors, and anyone willing to catch up would have to match Google spending.

The brilliant move here by Google was making it open source. This ensures that no other megacorp needs to fight them, as long as their interests are aligned.

Edge has died already. Safari will follow. The future is grim.

I could point out the ad hominem, but even worse, emojis?! You have zero credibility, scram.

The kernel-level cheats would fall into this category I guess, but cheaters will still be running them. Could anything without the same level access identify them?

and what is their endgame? “Developers are releasing cheats that emualate a mouse. Therefore Riot needs to use a camera to record your hand”?

You mean a device that physically operates the mouse? I don’t know, I don’t work for riot, but this is done in online chess - to participate in some tournaments with money prizes you need 2 webcams.

If everybody is jumping off a roof, so should Riot?

No, the question is if this discussion also cover all other anticheats that use kernel mode, or is here anything that is League-specific?

Isn’t the whole point of anti-cheat to survey the computer? If you aren’t getting anything new, then why even use a kernel-level anticheat?

This is just splitting hairs on semantics, isn’t it? From the moment the app is running in user space, it could collect a huge amount of user info, but it can’t look for kernel-level cheat software.

Note that I don’t play league, I could care less about the game or the developer, I’m just interested in the privacy vs cheating aspect of the conversation.
