Steam also makes and distributes their own DRM but it’s optional whether or not publishers choose to include it in their games.

It’s still ultimately optional but definitely more than just “allowing games with DRM to be published”. They are offering a ready-made solution for it as well.

Sorry had it the other way around, it uses gecko but then uses the Android system WebView as a renderer. I think it’s similar in iOS (but with the iOS equivalent of WebView because of iOS limitations) Either way, mixing and matching like that is generally less secure

For the record I didn’t downvote you, but if I was actually being serious about opsec I’d say not to use anything based on mobile Firefox at all :)

Fennec and Ironfox are improved versions of Firefox with better privacy/security hardening so picking either is probably preferable to base Firefox

I’m realizing my wording might be vague, by “everyone” I meant the big tech companies that didn’t implement it, like Google, Apple, Microsoft, and Adobe. AFAIK most of the open source apps actually implemented support pretty quickly, and obviously it wouldn’t be the end users’ fault because they can’t change what formats are supported

Why are we sending someone to “Extra Hell” for making an improved image format that has better compression and is an overall improvement over all 3 of the existing formats it replaces (jpeg, png, gif)?

Shouldn’t this apply to everyone the companies who refused to adopt it, thus breaking every normal image workflow? (Same thing can be said about JXL)

Edit: fix vague wording

Calling reddit the last bastion of internet quality is a crazy take no matter what time period you’re talking about

(preface that I’ve never actually worked with wasm before)

It seems like wasm64 exists though? Does it have any crazy limitations or is it just not well supported yet?

Ok but there’s a big difference between being on the bleeding edge of tech and releasing games which are borderline unplayable because of bugs and framerate issues to the point where Nintendo issues an apology on your behalf.

I think I’m cautiously optimistic after seeing the gen 10 trailer, but at the same time after ZA I’m ready to skip out on it if the direction looks bad.

I just want my black/white remakes so I can be done with this franchise -_-

Not that I want to defend Nintendo but Palworld barely even qualifies as the same genre as the mainline Pokemon games, literally the only thing they have in common is that you catch monsters

My point is that US citizens could remove their criminal president

If it were as simple as people just deciding to remove him then he would have been impeached in 2018 and again in 2020 and then sent to jail

Nevertheless, U.S. citizens act as if that were not the reality.

Again, where are you getting that? The people that are not aware of how much of a criminal Trump is aren’t using a platform created with the purpose of taking power away from big tech.

Every day I worry about what idiotic thing the US government is going to do next. And every day I worry about how establishment democrats are going to use republicans as an excuse to shift their politics to the right. I am painfully aware about how the US is making the world worse, and so are most of the people I interact with.

Pretty sure any Americans willing to go out of their way to use a niche FOSS platform like Lemmy are already aware of this and trying to make change in the little ways they can. You’re kind of preaching to the choir. If you want to reach anyone go to facebook or Twitter or reddit (where your post will then be deleted by a power tripping mod)

Edit: also for clarity, how do you know this isn’t public knowledge in the US? Have you been there? If so, where? It’s not like all 300 million people in the US have the same viewpoints.

If not, I can tell you right now that our national politics are ultimately decided by a few thousand people in the most rural parts of the country who barely know what the internet is. If you look in places like NYC or Minneapolis or Seattle then you will get a much different picture of what people think than in Texas or Florida. People do what they can but when you have the entire government and billionaires against you it isn’t exactly easy to make changes that people see on the other side of the world.

DNA isn’t perfect either though. It’s possible to be AMAB with XX chromosomes and AFAB with XY chromosomes (both still having the “correct” fully functional organs for their assigned gender). Some intersex people can also have multiple sets of DNA, some being XX and some being XY.

Neatly fitting all cases of biology into 2 categories like that is basically impossible anyway regardless of how you do it. “Biologically male/female” is basically impossible to define without also excluding some people that were born into each category. They’re fundamentally useless terms that don’t actually convey anything meaningful…

What does your happiness have to do with anything I said?

So what you’re saying is that you already disowned your sister for her religious views, but you regret that and want her to come back… by converting her back to Muslim beliefs? You don’t see the hypocrisy in that? You already seem to care about her more than your religion, otherwise you wouldn’t be making this post.

It seems like you’re unwilling to accept a decision she’s already made. If your family cares more about maintaining strict religious beliefs than accepting your own sister, you’ll be causing her more pain by continuously trying to convert her back. If all you’re doing is trying to absolve yourself from any guilt by saying you tried, then you might as well give up now. That’s just your own selfishness and won’t change her beliefs.

It’s not like being an atheist means someone will instantly have no morals. In fact, it’s usually the opposite. If someone needs the threat of eternal damnation to motivate themself to do good things, I’m sorry but they probably aren’t a good person to begin with.

NixOS manages to be all of these at once except the manual dependency management

As someone who has worked with a pretty large C# codebase and several smaller ones, I’ve found it to be one of the least efficient languages to program in. This is maybe not a technical fault of the language, but the way Microsoft encourages developing C# means that once you get past a certain point even simple MRs will have 10-20 files changed. There is sooooooooo much boilerplate caused by .NET that even things like Java Spring Boot just don’t have (and even then I’d consider Java to be a pretty bloated language in terms of boilerplate).

That’s ignoring the fact that the ecosystem surrounding .NET is a lot more enterprise-y, meaning a good portion of libraries require paid licenses to use.

My company uses it for some of our legacy on-prem hosting, but a lot of that is being actively decommissioned.
