Those who read the entire Reddit thread before almost everything got purged by the faggot moderation, must have noticed that it's not only the father and the son. The entire family is clinically retarded and pure eurotrash, to the point it left me wondering how they manage to function in society, run a business and not be homeless.
Yes, they apparently had never even heard of the concept of backups, and it was not the first time one of them fucked themselves over because of this. Older daughter is an uni student and apparently pretty much lost an entire semester because of a HDD failure. Which is why they made the decision to move the entirety of their digital lives to the cloud in the first place (without keeping any backups)

Every single game with Denuvo has been bypassed
Bypass is available for all denuvo games on day 0

Irdeto is seething hard and saying more invasive DRM is coming. I'm guessing they will demand kernel level access in later versions of Denuvo.

Will Microsoft allow them that?

Already outdated, it's down to 35 now.
And of those, 10 can be emulated, so denuvo is only really preventing 25 games from being pirateable. And of those, 15 are yearly sports games that are outdated and have newer, cracked, versions.

Okay.

>>108515872
This is merely creating the massive pressure and demand needed to propel us into the next evolution of technology required to power AI at its full potential. This happened many times in history. When industrialization was being hampered by the limitations of coal power, we invented modern fossil fuels. When scarce copper deposits caused endless wars and, eventually, the bronze age collapse, humans learned to smelt much more abundant iron ore. Nuclear power was invented due to the demand for a superweapon during WW2.

If you think the world has changed in the last couple of years just wait. Soon you won't recognize it at all.

oh, in that case programming language almost doesn't matter at all. Of course, shelling out to different processes will be horribly inefficient, even more so with interpreted languages like lisp (maybe something like chicken scheme might have little startup time).

The hardest part in designing it (I'm assuming this is purely a learning exercise, because this is a bad idea for a game) is to think hard about which parts of the game can be encapsulated to run in a different process.
The upshot is, once you've done this work, it's trivial to convert them to function calls later and simplify everything and still get high quality code without all the string parsing.

Common Lisp is already a more modular design than Unix.

I've been trying a bunch of switches and boards for a few years now, yet somehow a relatively simple/unexciting combo I've cobbled together on a whim has far and away become my preferred daily driver board. It's not a fancy magnetic/optical board. It's not a sturdy buckling spring board (I love my Model FSSK but it's not a daily-driver board for me). It's just Kailh BOX Ice Cream Pro Max switches in a Keychron V6, with KSA keycaps. What the fuck.

It's a 3D file format. Conceptually it's not as complicated as you make it out to be mostly converting headers between binary 3D formats and maybe some matrix math. In theory it's straightforward, but actually sitting down and implementing it is where the difficulty lies.

A much more qualified candidate was hospitalized during the nomination window and couldn't apply in time, yet she has refused to reopen nominations.
