You do something called raycasting to determine visibility beforehand, and don’t render anything not visible.

These ads don’t have sound. They’re just a static ad. You can still see the video, it just gets shrunk and paused.

I mean, they still suck – but at least understand the thing you’re arguing about first.

Mind elaborating a bit more?

Some way of globally capturing hotkeys, for things like starting stream, media hotkeys, etc. Only passing key events to the foreground window is shortsighted, but we need a secure way of doing this.

VPS typically have shared IPs. You’re paying extra for a dedicated IPv4.

It’s because many privacy enthusiasts are or have also been in network infrastructure, and realize the measures that must be taken on a hostile network which literally defines the internet.

I told you what to do. Rent a VPS, and set your own VPN up. Nothing is stopping you from doing this the right way.

Twitch shadowbans public VPNs due to abuse/bots. The most common method for people to get around bans is to use a VPN – now assume millions of viewers, and you’ve got an easy recipe for needing to stop that activity.

You’re not punished for being privacy conscious; you’re being punished for being roughly in the same realm as harassers, etc.

If you don’t want to be banned, rent a VPS and set up your own private VPN for only you. The problem is that using Nord, Windscribe, etc etc is that you’re sharing that VPN tunnel with hundreds, maybe thousands of people at a time.

Let’s just say there are people with Gyro aiming out-performing mouse and keyboard users in AimLabs. It truly is the bridge that will allow console users to cross into competitiveness with PC without needing dumb shit like allowing console users to ‘lock on’ to targets while PC users can’t. It puts controller users on equal footing with mouse/kb users, especially for FPS gaming.

Hell yeah; I still haven’t been able to convince Xbox users that gyro aiming is literally next generation; mostly because of their confirmation bias and Xbox controllers not having the feature yet.

Getting this hardware access available as far and wide as possible is going to make handheld gaming more attractive than ever.

There could be some use for it in detonation front research. Rotating detonation engines biggest issue is keeping the detonation front alive and active.

This is mostly Bluetooth LE so that you can use their new device finder network if your phone gets lost. Thieves often turn off the phone as the first step, so this may help a lot of people recover their devices.

Lemmy is filled with a lot of extremists. Nuanced thinking is in short supply here.

Take a look at the game Nightingale. You can use cards to combine “Forest, Desert, and Swamp” - with other attributes like “Blood Moon”, “Fae Wilds”, “Industrial” (makes the map foggy, gets boosts to crafting), “Quarry”, etc.; unless of course your scope is only mars.

That’s what I’m asking you.

With cheaters now using DMA to read memory locations on secondary computers, what’s your suggested solution? A great many people can go “this bad, don’t do this”…

Great. Fine. Don’t do this – then suggest something we do instead.

Yeah, I want it to be better too. I want FreeCAD to be the Blender of parametric modeling; but after 20 years, it’s just not there yet.

Welcome to Freecad; where you’ll be making up pointless workarounds like this constantly because the workflow is nonexistant.

I hate the idea that most people have on lemmy that every interaction has to be a positive experience and full of sunshine and rainbows and butterflies. I like to argue.

But whatever. It’s iight. I stuck around.

VMs can also do something called https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kernel_same-page_merging - meaning a single machine could run something like 52 instances of Windows XP on 1gb of RAM

So for example, say I needed to run a bunch of ARK servers - I could put them all in VMs, and since they’re all loading mostly the same assets, I could run a lot of them in the very tiny amount of memory.
