"CopyFail" root access bug (CVE-2026-31431) had a severity score of 7.8 and they made a big deal out of it.So I downloaded all the CVEs, dropped all except 2025-2026, put them in severity score version bins, dropped ones below median from both, and put them in weekly stacks.Median ended up being near 7.0 in both so these are all more serious than level 7.There is no peak around Mythos and Project Glasswing, just slow and steady rising from 300-400 weeklies of 2025 to current 800-900 weeklies over the course of 6 months.Is this like Richter scale so that there's a huge difference between 7.0 and 7.8 or have they actually started making software safe and cozy like for real, in 2026?
So basically CVE just means it's a flaw in software. It doesn't even have to be security related.There's no standard with this shit and it's all muddied, but .gov is generally what you want
people report cves to pad their cvs or to get paid. meaning, it's either famous free/open source software (ffmpeg, sqlite, firefox etc) or stuff that pays "well" (microsoft products, google etc). a software having 0 cves doesn't mean it's secure, it just means there's no reward to reporting vulnerabilities in itcves got attention mostly because it's a way for it department to say "you can't use x software" or to try to get developers (and sometimes ops) to update their shit

am i wrong or is x11 with compositor disabled still the best for gaming performance?
>>109337014I don't know if anyone has benchmarked it recently compared to Wayland with direct-scanout (i.e bypassing the compositor).Phoronix did some benchmarks recently and Wayland came out on top massively but that was with X11 using a compositor. In theory kwin_x11 should disable the compositor there too but bugs can prevent that, etc.It would be interesting to see someone test this, although it's largely academic because as I said earlier, compositor should be bypassed anyway, if it's not that's a bug. Turning off the compositor is a sledgehammer instead of addressing the real problem and means you miss out on things like shadows and transparency that require a compositor to draw them.
>>109337300NTA but I've been using x11 since I started using linux about 8 years ago now and have never once used a compositor (except on some default ubuntu installs or whatever I've used as zero effort temp environments), I really don't get it when people treat it as something essentialYeah if you wanna have a transparent terminal with blur behind it that's cool but it's not some key feature of the OS
>server is offline>smb share is down>dolphin and gwenview won't let me open pictures>both crash i'm going to fix that issue when i reboot and update>not now>still tries to open the images a few times with the same resultno i will never learn.
>>109337504>I really don't get it when people treat it as something essential>Yeah if you wanna have a transparent terminal with blur behind it that's cool but it's not some key feature of the OSIt's more like why compromise?You're not losing any performance when the compositor is properly bypassed for games so why bother disabling it?You can have your cake and eat it too. We're not back in 80s anymore where compositing is an expensive operation to be avoided at all costs.

whatever happened to pic rel?
>>109334965how so?
>>109335271Doing everything from scratch in simple C is not a good way to develop video games or software in general - it will take too long, you will eventually burn out and give up and what you've made so far won't be even 10% as impressive as what others have done in half the time using other approaches.

how come the only one that supports exFAT-formatted external storage & isn't a locked-down piece of shit is the google tv streamer? i swear these things are stuck in 2012. and no i'm not going to shell out $200 for a 6yo nvidia shield turd. seriously, what the fuck happened?
>>109335522n@kadashi
>>109335522i swear this guy just keeps looking for more and more excuses to post his favorite pink anime hoein any case i think some xiaomi can handle exfat just fine. is it locked down?you're on /g/ though so ideally you'd have a homeserver running zfs raid with some crazy compression in it and access your movies it through jellyfin
Android TV from 2022 still does my relatives well. I think I paid $59 for it back then. >i swear these things are stuck in 2012Just put the media on b2 and be done.

here's my experience with FOSS (FreeCAD)>encounter a software-breaking bug that I had to report to github page in the first day of use by just using it according to manual>the whole toolbox in one of the workspaces disappeared and doesn't want to show up again, and nobody on subreddit, discord or official forum know how to get it back>had to fix it myself but now every time I start FreeCAD I have to manually turn on visibility for EVERY toolbar>can't make chamfers or fillets to the edge of the face (you have to leave 0,01mm offset)>crashes and dies on any feature propagation for any vertices that are not a chain of straight lines>cannot do fillets more complex than edges of a cube (shits itself and dies on cylinders)>comparing to SOLIDWORKS every action is multiplied by 3, example: you want to do [thing] in SOLIDWORKS? Here's a button for it. You want to do [thing] in FreeCAD? Open 3 different menus, then choose option from several cascaded dropdown menus that open a half-functional sidebar where you have to do the [thing] by manually pressing a sequence of several buttons 3 timesFOSS is not free, you pay with your blood.
>>109331519I can forgive technical limitations of free software, but why every single FOSS has the most atrocious unusable interface imaginable? it's like they compete with each other who will make the most retarded UX possible

>>109331788freecad is in the stage of kicad when it got the cern patronage. its getting a ton of advancements, improving finally the iu and usability and using buget to actually have developers fixing shitbut it is also way more complex and generalistic than kicad, so the future looks bright, but it may be slower than kicad, it may not
>>109331932cad is instrinsecally dificult to make a good interface, but in the case of freecad, the model is the catia one, many different engineering tools in one itnerface, the work is absurdly dificult. not even the paid ones have good interface

"AI chads" are either shills or retarded (or both):You're either shilling for AI because it's your job, or you're cheerleading for something you have no stake in and which intention is to be used against you, so you're retarded.Q.E.D.

>>109335005The M1’s screen started showing some issues (a small dark-ish dot, goes away and comes back in the same spot), wouldn’t have got a new one if not for the lower price in India.My mom now uses my M1 to read her magazines, the screen is larger than her M1 iPad Air (my wife doesn’t want to change her Galaxy Tab S5e, otherwise she could have got it).
>>109335145Man it's sad how crippled apple makes their hardware, it's the same chip in the MacBooks. Does the tab have OLED?
>>109335230Well, I do kind of use it as a MacBook… but that’s only when I use it as a second screen for my actual MacBook Pro (now with touch support since MacOS 27’s beta).But yeah, even if you get the Magic Keyboard (or a cheaper alternative) it’s much more limited than an actual MacBook for a similar price (or more expensive…).The iPadPro got OLED screens in 2024 (MacBooks still don’t have OLED screens); my old one had a MiniLED screen (at that time only the 12.9’’ had MiniLED, now both screen sizes have OLED screens).
