what’s the difference between box86 and FEX-Emu?

damn, right.

i totally forgot about those, and assumend the mix-up of room temperature and “high-temperature”, because “high” is very relative and confused me as well.

room temperature superconductors don’t exist. (well… when/if this paper turns out to be bullshit)

High Temperature Superconductors do, and refer to the fact that they can be cooled with liquid nitrogen, and do not require liquid helium.

Firefox will most likely support this, if it doesn’t want to get cut off from most of the web.

well, if more people used Firefox websites couldn’t just throw them under the bus, which is why I said it’s so important.
We’ll have to see, but I’d hope Firefox puts up at least some resistance.

depends how the loans worked.
I was assuming his majority shares of X (ex Twitter) collateral.
And that that he could just go “yeah, go on, collect on your collateral, I don’t mind”, because it’s not worth anything anymore.

But admittedly I have no Idea how the contracts were drawn up, if this is possible and if his other money would be available to collect on.

Several players have said they’ll exit the UK rather than exit encryption.

rightly so.

I’d assume any worldwide player couldn’t be caught in compliance with this, as long as alternatives exist that don’t.
This might have been enough to push EU people away from WhatsApp for example.

I mean, imagine if non-british companies just went “well, no encryption for you, then.”

And disabled TLS too.

Online Banking would probably just have to… stop.
And a lot of other pages wouldn’t load on most browsers requiring https

They are not donating, if I remember correctly fairly recently Microsoft outbid them and bing was default for a bit.

But maybe I’m not remembering correctly tbh.

Depends.

If he thinks Twitter is irreperably dying, this may be a way, in which he can get out of repaying the loans he used to (partially) fund the buyout of twitter.

yeah, well, even the @twitter account now has the X logo.

x.com redirects to twitter.com as well.

Wonder if Businesses will replace the twitter logo in their windows as well.

This is why we need Firefox.

And Firefox needs to be a market that can’t be ignored.

my understanding was that you could only use the xInput configuration with the dongle, and the wii-configuration with bluetooth

I didn’t like the fact that for the “pc-setting” in the 8bitdo you have to use the dongle, and can’t use bluetooth.
also the kingkong2 pro has exchangeable abxy buttons, so you can change them to the correct layout for the thing you’re currently playing on (which may be extremely useful with the little brother, depending on his age)

Well, is it really that influental if the second they’d try to use their power, they’d lose the platform?
I see no reason why telegram couldn’t be replaced in this story.

Rightly so, see this current Thread: Microsoft wants to move Windows fully to the cloud

Windows 365 is a service that streams a full version of Windows to devices. So far, it’s been limited to just commercial customers, but Microsoft has been deeply integrating it into Windows 11 already. A future update will include Windows 365 Boot, which will enable Windows 11 devices to log directly in to a Cloud PC instance at boot instead of the local version of Windows.

If Microsoft really wants to slowly kill “local windows”, Valve would be fucked if there is no way for gamers to game locally.
It’ll be hard enough to compete with “performance on demand” anyway, at least until Microsoft pushes the pricing back up after luring everyone in.
See Netflix, everyone loved it, no-one bought DVDs/BlueRays, and now everyone hates Netflix for raised prices, going after password-sharing, cancelling shows etc.
I expect exactly the same with “cloud PCs”

Or talking in threads like these, having the terrible opinion that talking isn’t terrible, even when talking to Meta.

while I referenced DVD on the top end, I was assuming Blue Ray for the game fyi.
not sure how big the game is, but rather sure it fits in <4 Blue Rays.

I think for USB drives and micro SD the durability is terrible (like trying to read it after 5 years has a 10% failure rate, No Idea about the stat, just to illustrate)

then put in X Disks.

we did that with (floppy) disks forever, and CDs too.

I don’t remember any DVDs using that, but they surely existed
