>>106165923Yes, you just need to use a switch puller to take them out. I will say I've had a hell of a time pulling switches out of one Redragon board I tried out for a few days, and the Outemu switches they're supplied with are made cheaply to say the least, especially their housings. You can easily deform/crack the plastic on them.I also had that issue on my Wooting Two HE, though. Starting to think it might be more of an issue for steel switch plates.

>>106188514>my pixel was 400$ essentially newI upgraded my from the 6a to the 8 pro for around the same price and I'm not entirely sure why the average normalfag would pay for a premium phone. The upgrades are nice, but I can't justify actually paying MSRP for this fucking thing. You guys probably don't need to have a $1000 phone and you'll be fine with something half of that price at most.
If only Elop hadn't killed Nokia, we would still have a third option.

Even just 2 or 3 modern games can already fill a 512GB drive hence the obsession.If you work with lots of software and need to store project files it can be a hindrance, but it's a lot more manageable for all non-gaming purposes.

>>106189131These threads and /dpt/ have been failing to hit bump limit lately. Where did all the programmers that used to post here go?
what direction are you supposed to start from when developing an engine like that? anyway i was thinking about working on my own in vulkan but it's daunting as hell and i've debated on whether or not using an existing engine to prototype ideas first is more efficient before trying to tune my own system.
>>106189481I would at least get experience using another hackable engine so you can get an idea of the pitfalls of bad design decisions.
>>106189369I haven't been keeping tabs on /dpt/ for a long while now so idk about that but I'd /gedg/ is doing fine.Its hard to make progress with game engine shit. Its also very common to give up on game engine shit. \So not hitting bump limit is normal. What matters is(imho) the quality of progress that /gedg/ is making and it has been quite good, so all good, I'd say.>>106189481>what directionyou just Fuck Around and Find Out.there is no right answer for that question as mileage varies from developer to developer.

What was the certain undocumented kernel function on Windows that would have taken a professional programmer 2 weeks to reverse engineer to learn how to use that he mentioned in his video and why is it undocumented?
>>106188570Why is this faggot on another post?
>>106188570Based on Alex Ionescu's detailed discussion in his "Evolution of Windows Kernel Synchronization" presentations (particularly DEF CON 22, BSides Vancouver 2014, and others), the undocumented kernel function he explicitly cited as requiring approximately 2 weeks for a professional to reverse engineer is: ExAcquirePushLockExclusiveEx Here's a comprehensive breakdown of why it's undocumented and the context: Nature of PushLocks: PushLocks are a complex synchronization primitive introduced in Windows Server 2003 and Windows XP SP2. They combine aspects of reader-writer locks and condition variables, optimized for high contention and scalability. They are heavily used internally by the Windows kernel itself (e.g., in the Object Manager, Memory Manager, File System drivers). While the concept and basic documented interfaces (ExAcquirePushLockShared, ExAcquirePushLockExclusive, ExReleasePushLockShared, ExReleasePushLockExclusive) exist in the WDK documentation, their internal implementation is highly intricate and version-dependent.
>>106188570The Undocumented ExAcquirePushLockExclusiveEx Function: The "Ex" Suffix: In Windows kernel parlance, the Ex suffix often denotes an "extended" version of a function, providing more control or options. This is the case here. The Crucial Parameter: The key difference between the documented ExAcquirePushLockExclusive and the undocumented ExAcquirePushLockExclusiveEx is the presence of an additional parameter: Flags. Significance of Flags: This parameter allows fine-grained control over the acquisition behavior. Flags control critical aspects like: IRQL Handling: Whether the lock can be acquired at DISPATCH_LEVEL or only <= APC_LEVEL. Wait Mode: How the thread behaves if the lock is contended (e.g., Wait vs NoWait, potentially ForceWait). Priority Boosting: Control over whether acquiring the lock triggers priority boosting for the owning thread (crucial for avoiding priority inversion deadlocks). Debugging/Tracking: Flags potentially enabling deeper diagnostics. This Flags parameter is the primary reason for the complexity. Understanding its bitmask layout, valid combinations, and the intricate state transitions within the PushLock implementation that depend on these flags is extremely difficult without symbols or source code.
>>106188570Why Reverse Engineering Takes ~2 Weeks: Absence of Symbols: Without public symbols (ntoskrnl.pdb), identifying the function and its parameters is the first hurdle. Complex State Machine: PushLocks use a complex state machine encoded within a single pointer-sized value (the lock itself). Understanding how the Flags parameter interacts with this state machine across acquisition, release, contention, shared vs. exclusive modes, and priority boosting is non-trivial. Bitmask Decoding: Reverse engineers must painstakingly trace the code flow for different Flags values to map each bit to its specific effect (e.g., which bit disables boosting, which bit allows DISPATCH_LEVEL acquisition). IRQL Rules: Kernel synchronization has strict rules about IRQL levels. Determining the valid IRQL ranges for different Flags combinations requires careful analysis. Concurrency and Corner Cases: Reasoning about the correctness of the implementation under heavy contention, recursion (if allowed by flags), and various wait states adds significant complexity. Validation: Once a hypothesis about the Flags is formed, it needs rigorous testing across different scenarios and Windows versions to ensure correctness and stability. A mistake here can lead to system instability. Lack of Context: Reverse engineering happens in isolation without the design documentation or context the original developers had.
>>106188570Ionescu's Point: Alex Ionescu used this specific function as a prime example to illustrate: The extreme complexity hidden within seemingly simple kernel synchronization primitives. The significant effort required to understand and safely use undocumented kernel internals. Why relying solely on documented APIs is strongly recommended for driver developers. The impressive engineering (and inherent complexity) within the Windows kernel itself.In summary: The undocumented function is ExAcquirePushLockExclusiveEx. Its critical Flags parameter provides essential low-level control over PushLock acquisition but exposes the intricate, version-dependent internal implementation. Microsoft keeps it undocumented to maintain implementation freedom, reduce support burdens, prevent driver instability, and promote the use of safer, documented alternatives. Reverse engineering it is a major undertaking due to the complexity of the PushLock state machine interacting with the flag bits, IRQL rules, and concurrency scenarios.

>>106189656It's bad because it has sane defaults and doesn't require a large config file to get what you want out of it with the only downside is it's not a POSIX shell, which is only a problem when running 50% of scripts.

>>106190022Windows 98 was still supported until 2005. Its never been a good idea to try and run new windows versions on an old PC. If the machine came with 98, you stuck with it until you got a pc built for XP. Something with 512MB of RAM and a 2 GHz processor would run XP perfectly. Even 256MB was fine for the first two service packs.
