You would have to be a Muslim. Not drinking and smoking is usually something that they like to promote in their citizenry.

Not that they aren’t shitty towards Atheists, but it’s a whole 'nother level with the Uyghurs. Think post-9/11 islamaphobia taken to wild, CCP level extremes, and you’re not far off the level they take it and their ‘rationale’ for doing so. (Basically there were a few terrorist attacks years back and the CCP has been milking it as an excuse for their conduct)

They’ll try, I’m sure. Tesla and law abiding don’t go well together.

The League of Nations failed because it was toothless, and basically did have extreme veto powers built in for world powers.

Countries weren’t abiding by their obligations to directly intervene with attacks on member nations when a world power was an aggressor because doing so would create severe political problems for them. To this end the UN have their own armed forces for such issues.

Maybe?

Lots of older games never get updated to 64-bit.

Besides the only operating system to not support 32bit code anymore is macOS, which even Valve treats as not worth bothering with anymore.

Yet.

It’s not specific to e-girls. Can be twitch streamers, bloggers, etc

Also the app is used by children.

It’s not scary in any way though? Or inappropriate for kids in any way?

Calling it nightmare fuel is quite the stretch tbh. It’s like calling a 6ft basketball player incredibly tall.

This is war. You need to allocate your resources where they will be most effective. If a rocket is on target to hit … A bunch of crops, then it’s better to let it pass and use your costly defenses on rockets hitting things of military importance or civilian centers.

Yep! The security guard is also given a bunch of rules to follow such as “don’t let anyone outside of our neighbourhood (aka your local network) contact door 22”, which will also determine whether messages get delivered or not

Imagine your computer is a big block of flats and your applications are all people who live in the building.

Mail sent to the building address alone isn’t going to reach the intended recipient, because the postman doesn’t know what flat to post it to. So they need additional information such as ‘Flat 2C’

That’s the basic concept of ports. It’s basically additional addressing information to allow your computer to direct internet traffic to the correct applications.

When an application is actively listening on a port, it means that they are keeping an eye out for messages addressed to them, as designated by the port number. While an application is sending or receiving messages using a given port number, that port number is considered ‘open’.

Now, all sorts of applications do all sorts of things. Some are for the public to use and there are some that are useful within trusted circles, but can be abused by malicious people if anyone in the world can send messages to it. Thus, we have a firewall, which acts as a gatekeeper. A firewall can ‘block’ a port, denying access to a given group of people, or ‘unblock’ it, allowing access.

VPNs are a totally different thing. They are literally middlemen for your internet traffic. Instead of directly posting a message to somewhere and receiving a direct reply back, imagine you flew out to Italy to use a post box there and receive replies from there.

What they mean is if you are a affiliated with a national government. You might also be a target if you are very very rich.

If you’re an average Joe, they probably won’t burn it on you.

Apple trademark infringement suit incoming.

In the long term it might have a bad effect on the market, as it further helps to cement Microsoft’s control over multimedia APIs, since game developers now have little incentive now to target anything other than DirectX…

However, there are others that would argue that Microsoft’s control over multimedia APIs was fully cemented since decades ago, and developers have never had much incentive to target anything other than DX since then.

Back in 2014, Valve tried to bring Linux gaming to the spotlight by offering solid and targetable APIs for developers to port their games. This approach failed hard, and most games had serious deficiencies because most publishers would rather stick a half-assed DX wrapper (like DXVK only infinitely worse) than actually do the work for a proper port.

So, with only a handful of games and what did appear was usually worse than on Windows, releases stopped coming after a year or so.

This is why we have DXVK and Proton today.

As much as I think the person you’re responding to is being a bit of a clown, don’t tell them to go kill themselves.

Ah. That’ll do it.

And desktop mode doesn’t help?

Zygist is a way of hiding the fact that you have root access . Likely your bank changed absolutely nothing.

But it is true that these kinds of unintentionally racist differences in commentary are often done by white people. Not all white people but a large enough subsection of that population to become a general problem.

That’s what the comic is pointing out.

Well in the unlikely event that he did turn up at Nuremberg, he’d be hanged just like the top ranking Nazi officials were.

But if Hitler was captured, there’s a slim-to-none chance he’s living to even see that trial, much less attend it.

It’s not though. The question makes the assumption that he would have been handed over for the Nuremberg trials.

But the Soviets were fucking ruthless against Nazi Germany. They were REALLY driven by hatred for them. If a Nazi soldier surrendered to Russians, a summary bullet to the head was often the more merciful outcome.

And it was the Russians that would have found Hitler first, so it’s far more likely that they would:

1. execute him on-the-spot
2. torture him until death
3. have their own trial for him in Russia before torture/execution.
