They believe, apparently, that collecting information is more valuable than being legal

Woah woah woah there cowboy! That’s only ok when you’re big tech, not when you do it against them. Sheesh, the nerve on this guy…

I’m self hosting seafile and client apps are absolute garbage. Everything else is chef’s kiss, as long as I can get away with using the file explorer or cli

I think it should be a CH, like cheese. Not Romanian, just how I’ve heard it pronounced.

I agree, my point is that safari’s dominance on iOS is not the light at the end of the tunnel, it does very little to offer alternatives to chromium.

I was about to promote lemmy and mastodon before I realised where we are.

I disagree that it should be strictly eu, I’d much prefer decentralisation

That traffic only skews the graph like a false positive. While WebKit itself is oss, apple’s tendency to just separate itself from the rest of the world makes it largely irrelevant. There are very few alternative browsers based on webkit for other platforms and the expected benefit of developers having to cater to apple’s choices are thus negligible for the rest of us.

Don’t blame programmers, they are (generally) nerds who would spend more time optimising than developing if allowed. The problem is companies want speed in development, that’s why you get electron apps- you build it once and deploy on web, mobile and desktop. Who cares if they hog GBs of RAM

Yes, this is the obvious workaround. I was trying to explain why ‘they can’t just roll back’ and why i don’t believe they have the setup to do it automatically

Wow didn’t have the same problem. In 2006 you didn’t have instant microtransactions, which in turn unlock in game currency, which then can be spent.

This is a chain of events which would normally be handled by an event database if it were to be made easy to roll back. You can imagine it working much like a ctrl+z undo, it’s a stack of events which is deterministic and can be played back, forward or from a specific time. In theory you would identify the malicious transactions, roll back the actual database and then replay without them.

Why they don’t do it? This is an incredible amount of overhead engineering with no value to be sold to the VPs of the company/project leads. It’s basically insurance for an edge case. It would also cost them much more money/server resources in addition to the traditional database they also have to run in parallel for all other functionality. It’s such a hard sell for a company who’s only interest is the bottom line.

You can’t just roll back the database, you have to also replay any legitimate transactions between the last snapshot and now, and that’s a whole other can of worms which I don’t expect a game server would be prepared to handle out of the box

How much glue can i render with a 7800XT?

Until a certain point. From what I remember there was a minimum allowance and then a standardised rate applies. I could be wrong tho.

The crazy bit is how far north Europe is, relative to the climate we get. Almost everywhere else this far north is freezing

What did the primeagen do? Haven’t been keeping up with his stuff for a while. I remember he gave me American Christian conservative vibes but I’ve never heard him taking political stances (outside of the prevalent pro capitalism typical for the region)

Except for Alienware

This comment made me double check if I hadn’t accidentally opened Reddit

Indeed that was my intention. I just never thought that he wouldn’t be familiar with something so ubiquitous in today’s world, so I didn’t even think to ask. That’s why this situation is so infuriating to me, not so much that he didn’t know, but that my assumptions prevented me to resolve it
