It was made for British TV in the late 80s maybe.

It wasn’t going to be done on 35mm with movie making kit. What you see there is probably the best it’s going to be.

Since it underpins Android, you could argue it’s the most successful OS in general.

Will they collect data on you to profile you and your activities and use that in the future? Yes.

And that’s why the only thing I use my VPN for is piracy. Don’t really have a good reason to push anything else through it.

In fairness I doubt the NSA give a single solitary fuck about piracy and aren’t about to give themselves up over a telesync rip of Beetlejuice 2.

But probably best to plan 9/11 part 2 over something a bit more secure.

Looking at the domain name, they’re in Mali. Things must be cheap out there.

Because they’d heard of them.

The power of the fediverse is nothing next to the power of the normieverse and a couple of billion dollars in advertising money.

If you’ve never placed too much trust in your sphincter before, you will eventually.

I suspect you need access to the database.

Looking at the source, “comment_like” seems to be where they’re stored.

Was it midwest.social by any chance?

I’m not sure it would. If my instance knows who up and downvoted a post, then they can work it out on the fly per post without even needing to tell me who did what.

Personally I’m not even in favour of the simple up/downvote system. Everyone uses it differently. “I disagree with you but thanks for being civil” can be up or down depending on who you are.

Sure, but I think we can go further.

Filter the votes I see based on which users or instances I’ve blocked. I’ve blocked them for a reason.

I think ideally a Lemmy client could connect to a number of instances, and you could add the more contentious ones yourself.

Some of these places are literally hosting child porn. You don’t want that mirrored to a server that you’re responsible for.

Thing is, I do kind of think of a JVM as an emulator for a processor that doesn’t exist.

WINE kind of blurs the line of a traditional emulator by having the executable run natively on the target machine’s CPU, but everything it does in regards to dealing with the host OS, the display, disk access, etc, is emulated as far as I’m aware.

A theoretical PS4 or Xbox One emulator running on x86 hardware could be just as much of an emulator as WINE is.

It kind of is though.

Closest I’ve got to info is widevine keys extracted from insecure Android boxes. I’m happy just to download their copy tbh. It’s usually just as quick, if not more so.

I think it’s a different beast entirely.

The open source alternative to Delphi is Lazarus if you’re that way inclined.

A lot of Delphi was the work of Anders Hejlsberg, who you might remember from other little known languages such as C# and Typescript.

Looks like meat’s back on the menu, boys!

Either that or sit in 1 and tell him one of the wolves is violating the GPL.

I wish they’d open source it.

I don’t think anything else comes close for just dropping a bunch of shit on a form and running it.

Have you heard of our lord and saviour, Delphi?

Automated numberplate recognition systems have spoilt so much fun.
