This won't really affect the development of ZLUDA much in particular, since the main developer happens to live in The Netherlands, and clean-room reverse engineering - especially for interoperability purposes - is fully protected by law in the EU.

But NVIDIA does really like to make it as much of a pain as possible to support CUDA software anywhere but for a single user on their personal consumer-grade desktop.

I feel like this could go really well together with Piet.
Just imagine; an album consisting of a bunch of Velato programs with Piet code as the artwork.

I've heard quite a lot of discourse in regards to unlawful gameplay, I just personally have trouble seeing how it could ever be non-aggressive, it's by its very definition antagonistic after all. Could definitely vary in the amount of aggression though, and CIG's definition of "unaggressive unlawful" seems to be stealth - which I can definitely get behind.

CIG does at least seem to finally be adding more versions of actually non-aggressive lawful missions, not just the various flavours of hand-box delivery missions we have today.

To be fair, I'd consider a silent assassination to be nowhere near as aggressive as a full frontal assault.

With how much security they're speaking about, it does makes sense that even "low-aggression" unlawful activities would still potentially involve a whole bunch of combat.

Version requirements? No rules!

He won't be allowed to perform at Eurovision with the Windows 95 name/trademark/logo, so it would be hilarious if he switches to a name like Linuxman during it.

Well, there are people running Linux in all manner of ways, like VRChat shaders.

This looks really odd in relation to other fediverse software; Why /magic and required to be on the root of the domain? Why hard-require routing the domain part of the user ID when .well-known/webfinger exists? Why is there a X-Open-Web-Auth header which the spec only describes as "its purpose is unclear from the code"?
So many questions.

I definitely like the idea of distributed sign-in, Solid did a decent work of that many years ago after all. This particular proposal just looks rather odd.

If you build a linked list in C, and put the pointer to the next entry as the first element in your struct, then you only need a single variable (and two comparisons) to do sorted insertion into the list.

Steve Rogers might have America's Ass, but Mothman has the Buns of Steel.

The built-in Firefox support is only activated for unstable builds, so you can't enable it on stable unless you manually enable it during compile-time.
