This dude is trying to get people to think, to notice, to act, he's trying to educate people and to help them change. Maybe don't immediately disregard him as "not a true socialist", maybe don't outright jump to calling him a tankie. We're all in this hell hole together, the least we could do is help each other out and spread the educational content, work together to give a friendly summary on our points of view, and keep moving forward.

I like his content, and I like that he's trying, that's my opinion on him.

Why boycott GrapheneOS? I feel a bit OOTL here, I only know the drama with the ex-lead dev, but I understand that the project as a whole is your best bet at a mobile experience that you control. Am I missing something?

Right? Twitter hasn't stopped dead naming Twitter, for fuck's sake

I had pretty much the same experience you did. I did randomly find a reddit post with a ublock custom filter to avoid the whole "page not loading at all" thing. Ever since, I've had only one ubo failure that I fixed with the routine filters refresh, and dare I say youtube's actually been getting faster for me lately? I did have that slowdown, due to their thing that prevented the page from loading, but now it's almost like they've ramped down on their efforts.

Edit: I'm here to stand corrected. Fuckers are messing with any browser that's not theirs. Add the following filter to ublock if your video pages take 5 seconds to load: www.youtube.com###+js(nano-stb, resolve(1), 5000, 0.01)

Huh, last I checked, the professional standard was Mac, at least for recording instruments. From what I vaguely recall, Windows has a latency issue due to how they handle audio stream inputs. I went through these woes myself once while using my guitar & Amp through my computer to practice with headphones on and having the music playing on top. The latency just doesn't allow you to concentrate on what you're playing, it completely distracts you. You can get it lower by doing something, I don't remember what, but that solution ends up introducing random new bugs such as certain audio streams suddenly not playing at all for a while before fixing themselves, and it still doesn't quite get latency low enough to not notice it.

As a non-American, I always saw the "freedom fries" thing as a mockery of Americanism, I'm having a hard time believing this was a non-satirical idea.

Yeah if you guys put him in office again, I'm just deleting all social media including lemmy. Fuuuuuck that [most times daily, some times HOURLY] noise. I already live in a very depressing country, don't need Americans to remind me they're making things worse.

I'm amazed she hasn't showed up in the comments yet.

Considering award winning actress Margot Robbie moderates the android community and uses arch btw, I'd say it's right there on her face.

Note 9, stock Samsung. Looking to jumping into the Pixel 8/Pro with Graphene in the coming months, but gotta save up a bit first.

If data structures weren't working with MSVC, you're probably working with non-portable code in the first place. Don't assume an int is 32 bits long!

Oh absolutely! I was starting out during this time, and started using memcpy for a uni project, hardcoding byte sizes to what I assumed long's size was, instead of checking or using standardized data types (because I didn't even know they existed). The result was such a mess, exacerbated by the good ol "let's write it all in one go and run it when we're done". Boy did I suffer in that class.
