My internet being bootstrapped by ISP…
Seriously, what does “bootstrapped” mean in this context?

Edit: if you are going to downvote at least explain if you got a counter point, otherwise it seems y’all just butthurt haha
Okay.
How is this different from US ISP bootstrapping peasant grade internet?
So basically you are getting downvoted because your comment is irrelevant 'Murica bashing.
Now you know.
Because too many mods are power tripping assholes and I say that as someone whose been a mod in various corners of the Internet since at least 2000.
The best mods, and admins, are nearly invisible and as close to drama free as possible.
Black screen with cursor can be bypassed by pressing ctrl+alt+del, at least on my HP laptop with Mint and KDE Plasma 5.
You never know, they could written something out without fully considering the ramifications. It happens.
Heroes don’t kill hundreds of people, they save them.
Ah, so the people killing Nazi’s in WWII aren’t Heroes anymore. They should have saved the Nazis instead!
Are you hearing yourself?
I’ve already read several comments just like that over on .ml.
Serie A are a bunch of greedy cunt bags trying to re-arrange how the Internet works to try and protect their precious footy matches. Fuck 'em.
Working system until you need to upgrade something.
Why are you attempting to upgrade slack? You install, configure to purpose and leave it be. When it’s purpose changes you re-install and re-configure! Nothing could be simpler!
I think I blew up my first Slack install in about 12 minutes while trying to get a video camera to work as a webcam. It took me 3 god damned days and more than a few re-installs but I did get it going…and then spent 30 minutes web chatting with a guy from Serbia. The video was the size of a postage stamp.
Well, yes. That is how it works!
As someone who started with slack in '97 these modern distros function so “automagically” that I sometimes distrust them. They’ve hidden so much of the complexity of Linux and whatever Desktop Environment is running on it that most users have very little idea what’s actually happening or how it works.
That’s been GREAT for getting more people to use Linux but it’s creating the same problem that Microsoft did with Windows. The old DOS users often knew quite a lot about their PC and how it worked because they had to but as the technical barriers went down so too did the knowledge of the users. You no longer had to juggle IRQs, Memory Maps, or DLLs because Windows just did it for you.
That’s not a bash (lol) on Linux or users of modern distros either, I myself am on Linux Mint as I type this, because it was always going to work out like this. A lot of very smart people put a lot of their time into MAKING it work out like this.
The way I understand it is that every anticheat needs to be overhauled as they can no longer tap into the kernel/get kernel access.
Yes, if we assume that various institutions (cough cough looking at you EU) allow MS to remove kernel access.
So the anticheat has to eun in userspace.
VSB-E isn’t really “user space” but your point about the kernel is valid.
hich is why anticheat should
The word “should” is doing some heavy lifting in that sentence. Even if it COULD that doesn’t mean devs will allow it nor does it mean that existing games will get updated on EITHER platform. Removing a kernel level anti-cheat could easily be the death of some older games on Windows as the owner simply doesn’t want to put the money into making it work.
I’m honestly not too sure how possible it is to make VSB-E work on *nix either, since it appears to use Microsoft Hyper-V technologies at its core and those wouldn’t be available in *nix. That means that we’d be back to Game Devs having to specifically write anti-cheat for *nix…which is something they can already do if they want.
VSB-E is interesting but I’m not convinced its going to do anything for Linux Gaming at all. Hopefully I am wrong. :)
Perhaps I’m being dense but how do you see this helping Linux Gaming?
Even assuming that VBS-E allows Game Devs to shift their current kernel based anti-cheat over to it there’s no guarantee that Linux will get a compatible VBS-E module nor that Game Devs would allow its use.
I guess I see it as: If a Game Dev does this (use VBS-E) AND Linux gets a compatible module AND Game Devs allow its use THEN newer games may not have the same problem with anti-cheat as older ones.
Due to planned virtualisation in Windows
I must have missed something. What are you referencing with this comment?
Be careful with Home Assistant. Once you board that train it’s near impossible to get off!
HANG ON BEFORE YOU HIT THE DOWNVOTE BUTTON!
They don’t need a recall. If your processor ain’t broke yet then the patch will (supposedly) prevent it from breaking and if it’s ALREADY broke then Intel will (supposedly) replace it via RMA.
So what’s the big fuggin’ problem here? That Intel won’t use the term “recall”?
There’s only been about 700 yacy peers online in the last 30 days which is pretty low for a “crowd sourced” search engine, especially when many of those are, I think, temporary peers that come and go. It looks like it has only maybe 200 “master” servers which wouldn’t be nearly enough to keep up with the Internet these days.
The good news is that if there’s websites / urls that you care about you can point your own yacy instance at them and schedule the crawls to keep up with content changes.
I remember reading about yacy some years ago and now that I’ve bumped it into again it’s sparked my interest. I may stand up a docker instance and play with it for awhile. If nothing else it could make a very useful “arrrrr” search engine.
basically requires a minimum of 20-30GB of RAM to be performant.
That’s odd, the project page states 256 Megabytes and practically speaking that’s nothing. Where did you find 20-30G? Are you sure you’re not confusing the memory requirement with the suggested free hard drive space?
Even if it does need 32G of RAM to perform well it’s not a very high hurdle. 32G of DDR4 can be had used for less than $75. Toss that in an old Core8/9 I5 Desktop, install your preferred flavor of Linux, add Docker, and you’re off to the races.
Not yet but they’re working on it.
Okay that I’m aware of but I’ve never heard of it referred to as “bootstrapping”. Thanks for the explanation.
