Every iPhone app to scan or find Bluetooth devices is just a long list of "unnamed" or otherwise unknown Bluetooth devices around me with no helpful info like Mac addresses. The whole point is for me to find out what all those unnamed and unknown devices are. I don't care about lost Bluetooth devices because I try not to have any of them.I hate Bluetooth and am trying to get rid of all Bluetooth devices in my vicinity. Is there a physical Bluetooth scanner device I could buy?

Smartphones in a sense are dumb and nonsensical, and if you handed a fully functional one to someone in the 1970s, they would know what to do with it.
VR is the same way. It just needs a well designed device, sold at a decent price, with proper marketing behind it, and a decent software library. Meta failed at the last one there, and Valve will probably fail at the third because they don't do marketing. The day will come when every household has a "VR terminal", it will just take time.

why don't we set up something that scans internet for relevant discussions and automatically makes posts that promote Linux and digital freedom?

Getting programming jobs by June will be incredibly difficult. All the entry-level and intermediate jobs will be accomplished via a $1000/month subscription to claude code. Every subscription will replace 10 full-time jobs.
Many companies will go under. There will be no jobs. Only FAGMAN will be "safe". Most FAGMAN employees will either quit voluntarily or fight dirty to not get fired.
Programming Jobs and Software jobs are KAPUT in six months. You have been warned.

Have you ever considered the possibility that some day normal consumer won't be able to afford a computer anymore?
With GPU and RAM price increases, this nightmare scenario seems likely.

Wireless Internet connections might also get so full of traffic that one day fast Internet will be a luxury as well.

1. Give people cheap tech so they get dependent on it.
2. When they're addicted, start ramping up the price + scarcity
3. Win

Me? I'm already learning ways to survive without technology. In a few years you might have to live without tech.

Do you think Apple's going to stop selling computers? Their whole deal is consumer hardware, they're not like say Microsoft that mainly deals in software and corpo services and has no first party computers.

As the price of slopvidia GPUs and regular consumer RAM skyrockets, a Macbook becomes a better and better choice. Especially as the quality of Windows craters. Apple is going to hoover up all the people who used to use Windows PC. If you're a game dev it's time to learn Metal.

>can someone explain to me what an API actually is?
An API is a bunch of functions exported by a library, plus the type definitions and constants associated with them. Maybe also some variable exports, though that's usually a Bad Idea. Usually accompanied by documentation except when the library's author is an autistic faggot. Depending on language, you might think about an API type-first or function-first; there's no universal rule.
By knowing the API of a library, you know how to use the library. Well, in theory. Sometimes you need to also know some higher-level patterns too to know how to do everything right. Ideally, those patterns are also documented, but quite often that's honoured more in the breach than anything else. Alas. Good docs often aren't easy to write.
>>
>>107745134
API(Application Program Interface)
People use that to mean different things in different contextes.
It can mean library (in some language)
It can mean http endpoint (for web fags)
It can mean RPC

If you go to deeper into details they will tell you about calling conventions. Depends what you are doing.
>>
>>107745134
>>107745134
The best way to mentally visualize and understand APIs in the realm of software and programming, is to just think of them as different types of cable plugs.

Different cables have different plug standards, right? Like inside your computer, there's a whole standardization behind the cable plugs wiring your fans, GPU, and all the crap plugging into your PSU before it meets a higher level standardization ie the AC wall outlet.

All that IMAGEHLP.DLL does is sort of house a function (it probably has a lot of functions in it actually), which your own program can use (this is typically done by telling your code to go for that exact .DLL file, and calling the exact function name you need). That function knows how to more directly interact with the operating system at a lower level and the operating system gives that specific .DLL permission to do so (where as a lot of cases the applications typically would be restricted from getting that far under the hood).

tl;dr
API is just anything that allows one software system or application to "plug into" another to exchange data in a common or standardized format. The distance or complexity does not define an API (ie internet APIs like REST/gRCP are more complex than operating system APIs which are just .dll libraries with functions, but ultimately they're all just plugs that have an expectation and standardization to pass data)

I've used UPX for a video game distribution before and adding UPX made more anti viruses flag the game as a false positive. I wouldn't recommend using it for actual software you intend to distribute to normies unless you can also afford an EV signing certificate (like $800-1000/year).
>>
>>107745271
>the operating system gives that specific .DLL permission to do so
Almost nobody implements that sort of check (because it's stupid hard to make sure it isn't compromised). The DLL may be the main thing that knows how, but anything that makes the right syscalls gets the right responses.
DLLs are not that sort of security boundary, as they're in the calling process and can be affected by things that process does.
