do i really need a VPN to torrent? ive been doing this for over 10 years now from movies to games and its not like i got spam mailed or anything, is there really a threat to not using a vpn?
>>108508023Anna's Archive made an announcement that they scraped 99.9% of Spotify and area about to release it, that's a really big deal, and that's why they got bullied into shutting the fuck up about releasing ANYTHING. Metadata or otherwise.
>>108508048Just Sweden things. Sorry for the AI slop but I'm tired.
>>108507685no comrade, you don't need a vpn. people with a functional government still do though.

If you live in the US you should. Spectrum were faggots about it in my experience

>>108508141I mean, to be fair when you're in game does it matter what OS you're using? I would think people are buying these lightweight laptops for light editing and internet browsing. Like if it comes down to better gaming vs windows I'll probably choose windows as someone who doesn't code.
>>108505932Fucking prove it
>>108508192no. the neo makes it to 90fps at 800p. that chip is slow than an m1 air in multicore. so, an m5 air can easily do 1080p at 100fps.>>108508193intel is gaming these benchmarks. reviewers have used these stupid tests for years and so intel is optimizing for them. when it leaves that controlled realm the battery life takes a nosedive and the mac comes out on top. i hate how lazy journalists are.

>>108507795If you extrude a roof from each rectangle and let them pass through each other, the overlap lines are just intersections.A real roof needs valleys, explicit ridges, and the game I'm doing is procedural so each roof is different. It's the concave ones I'm having problems with.
>>108508091It does. It's more complex to go through existing functions, trying to remember what's going on and where and how you can introduce new stuff without breaking things than being able to just write new code separately and inject it without going into implementation details of existing systems. Again, this is general programming stuff, I wonder what you think all those architectural patterns are for if not for this.
>>108508282No it's not more complex to add a single function call to a single place in your codeYou know what the patterns are you just have no idea how to apply them
What is a good mail provider nowadays?Every single one asks for phone number, secondary e-mail address or does something retarded like you can't register to any online service without provided either of the two (Proton), some don't even use imap/pop and you can't use them with a client. It's hell.

The Gentoo handbook needs a tl;dr version. Literally just a short manual for installing, flags, and portage without the explanations on what a fucking file system is. Something between a dry list of commands and the handbook.

BONUS: Netflix adds a fake film grain filter not present in the video to hide how shitty and starved the original streams fucking look Congrats AV1 clowns you played yourselvesThe future you all wanted lololololololololol
>>108503545>Congrats AV1 clowns you played yourselves>The future you all wantedthe codec retards knew exactly what they were doing the whole time you retardall of these pushes are from government spy agencies and copyright companies. need more bandwidth for metadata snoops and IP owners believe people should pay the cost to film a movie just to watch it at film qualityww3 is gonna solve a lot of problems
>>108503655the original file looked like that you stupid retard.
>>108503545It's an optional feature, they don't shove it down your throat. That being said, they don't allow enough control over the denoise and grains used to make it look good while saving bandwidth in my opinion to not look like it's trash and I really doubt even Netflix is doing much other than just flipping the switch on and going with default settings. It's fine if it is optional, and yeah, you aren't guaranteed original quality by Netflix for their service no matter how much you pay, their priority is just to serve you video at good enough quality for you to not complain. They will drive off hardcore folks but I doubt that will stop them from implementing it.
>>108503545The 4k tier on Netflix is $27/month. Crazy how people are okay with this
