>blows the fuck out of you're kernel level anti cheat
this is fucking hilarious. doesn't matter if apex, valorant, rust, cs2 faceit or any other league. any FPS is currently unplayable because kids run color/ML aimbots on their second pc and forward inputs to their gayming pc with this 40$ passthrough device. and all the jeet AC devs are too stupid to write an aimbot detection algo that doesn't result in 6 million false positive bans. (the valorant jeets literally used their RAT malware anticheat to check&ban players that stream a centered screen region which is smaller than 512x512 pixels).

I'll just say it - the only solution to this is restricting competitive play to managed "net cafes" where you don't have any control over the hardware

this also solves the problem of gpus and ram costing tens of thousands of dollars - you just charge people by the hour to play on sanctioned hardware

it's the future of modern gaming

How do people become seriously good with tech? Did they get exposure from a young age? Mentorship from someone who actually wanted to teach them?
Like the people that figure out how to decompile games or repack old games for new operating systems. People who build software/hardware that can interface with old consoles, shit like that?

I've always loved games and computers but I grew up in a religious, anti science household. I finished community college pre-stem courses and I code in C++, but I can't help feel like a retard compared to real technical knowledge

“really good” is subjective, but I’ve hit a point in my career where I easily dwarf 99% of /g/ in yearly income through technical problem solving. it really boils down to a lifelong passion in math and computers and a mastery of the fundamentals in both. getting into a top 4 cs uni also helps since being surrounded by professors and students that aren’t retarded has a huge impact on how much you learn, especially since these are your formative years.

passion, work ethic, etc… are all important, but there is a black pill element to it. if you truly want to be “great”, you do also need the raw talent. a good proxy is how well you did vs your peers in mathematics in grade school. everything technical is downstream from math so if you sucked at it when you were a kid, you’re probably never gonna be truly great. barring that, it really boils down to mastering the fundamentals. forget the meme framework of the week and ignore all sloptubers that shit out surface level content and shill vpns. start by reading and mastering all of the classic textbooks. that alone will already keep you busy for a long time

When new tools were invented, people were always needed to improve those tools. From the printing press to the personal computer, a person had to design successors, and that's something they can get paid to do. A tool that can do everything faster, more efficient than a person can, and just improve itself (eventually) without a team of engineers is supposed to be good, how? Nothing like this has ever existed before. Unironically, this time is different.

Luke Smith is the embodiment of the Dunning Krueger effect. He's a Language arts PHD dropout that decided to just copy the most successful Linux YouTuber at the time (Mental Outlaw) but Luke's technical competence is so low he makes several mistakes whenever he rips off one of Kenny's videos. When people called him out on this Luke started grasping for ways to stand out from being another Mental Outlaw clone.

1st Luke started shilling credit cards, he even disabled all crypto payments on his POD bookstore because Kenny hates the debt based financial system.

2nd Luke took an anti-gaming stance because Kenny occasionally plays vidya with his gf.

3rd Luke took an anti phone and anti gun position because Kenny carries both as part of his EDC

4th, Luke stopped making his videos in the woods because Kenny took over his family farm and made a couple videos about it. Luke just can't stand living in Kenny's shadow.

5th, Luke became anti restaurant because Kenny works with local restaurants to get organic food scraps for his animals and sells the meat and eggs back to the restaurant

And the most hilarious LARP of all is Luke pretending to be a Christian so he could enhance his E-begging and associate himself with Terry Davis despite desktop ricing being his greatness programming accomplishment.

>>107694665
>You were bottlenecked by the SATA 1.0 interface, not to mention no AHCI.
There was a use case. It was faster than an early SSD, cheaper for small sizes especially if you had some spare RAM sticks, and nonvolatile since there was a battery. You could put things there that you needed fast access to while otherwise using a HDD.

It was also a way to cram more than 4 GB RAM into a 32 bit system if you put your swap on it.

>>107694641
>Can we go back to using RAM as an SSD?
I assume you mean using a DRAM-based non-volatile storage by keeping the charge?
You could, I just don't know why you would.

There's not a huge advantage for non-volatile storage compared to PCIe 6.0 NVMe. Lower capacity. More expensive. Transfer speeds aren't going to be much higher, except in random writes?
If you really need random write-heavy performance across smaller capacities, lower than a NAND-based drive, why not use CXL and a fuckhuge ramdisk? If you need this, you definitely have some very specific application need, right? So pick a fine-tuned sync strategy from a conventional ramdisk to a non-volatile store instead of trying to set up the DRAM as non-volatile itself?

Put another way: Why go for an exotic hardware configuration with a bunch of downsides? Why not reach for the tools that the is working to pump out and make more compatible, more available, more affordable, etc.? You aren't getting any secret, edge-case benefit from going against the grain here.

Companies have no other choice but to hire new (and young) devs because otherwise they'd break their pipeline and eventually they'd run out of (competent) devs.

But with AI replacing entry-level work you're sure to see a dip in demand. Then again on the other hand there's non-technical Boomer managers who believe that young people are 'better with AI', so there's that.

I didn't want to touch the licensing issue because it just ends up with the same 40+ year old shit flinging. But yes this is very true and you're right that it's an end-run around the GPL license. Which is why most of these "re-write it in Rust!" garbage projects are licensed as MIT or another license more friendly to FAGMAN.

It took me many years to undo the GPL/Stallman brainwashing I fell for in the 90s. It took me a long time to realize that the GPL is also well poisoning. It validates the same copyright/IP system of slavery that we've been dealing with for the past 120 years. The way forward is to ignore all licensing/IP/copyright laws. Release as public domain and if someone refuses to give you the code then you should "steal" it and re-release it as public domain for all. GPL, BSD, MIT doesn't matter. It's all garbage. The entire concept of copyright and intellectual property is retarded and bad for humanity. It holds back progress and only enriches the same glow nigger faggots that are ruining everything. GPL is an obvious failure and has not prevented them seizing control over everything in the software world. Instead of simply taking the code and fucking off they usurp the projects instead. Which is how we ended up with the Linux kernel and everything around it being a massive pile of garbage. Just look at what they did to the Gnome project after version 2.x for a good example.

Their real goal at the moment seems to be closing the x86 loop-hole. They really really hate the fact that it's somewhat open and allows you to run whatever software you want. Which is why all this ARM shit ships with locked bootloaders these days. They have to make all the system in current use artificially obsolete so they can control the flow of data in the future.

In other words: In 10-15 years time it'll be impossible to build anything from source on a consumer system.
