VPN technology will never be banned, as most companies rely on it heavily, e.g. for remote work. The only thing I could see is ISPs keeping a blacklist of known addresses of commercial VPN providers, but that seems like an uphill battle

How is this done? Can you just re-enable the feature in the BIOS? And what about machines sold outside the US?


Why not make it a felony to propose laws that are ruled to be “obviously unconstitutional”? A citizen can go to jail for even trying to break a regular law, so it seems reasonable to do the same for politicians who try to break one of the foundational laws


Make it mandatory to institute a 5 year trial phase, during which encryption is broken only for politicians and public servants


That’s one of the major restrictions for casual use, yes. But if these measures are actually implemented, it might be worth it to have a second phone (or some other device) just for online banking


It sounds sophisticated to the layman
Xorg never worked quite right for me with multiple displays of different resolutions, orientations and refresh rates. Even after extensive setup, I would get screen tearing effects all the time. In wayland, everything just works OOTB for me.


I’m curious, does EFT work on Linux now? I had a workaround with a windows VM years ago, but the anti-cheat decided that was evil one day and wouldn’t let me play anymore


No, that was my setup for some time. KVM with PCI-e passthrough to pass the entire GPU to a windows VM. Worked great, until EAC started banning me for using a VM.


But those don’t work right on modern windows, either


Mature applications as in tried-and-tested software that will not produce wrong results, right? Right??
No, but I’d say that all audiophiles are nerds


Are messaging apps really considered social media?
The only complaints I’ve ever heard about 60fps are from gamers who prefer higher refresh rates. Does anyone advocate for framerates to be lower than 60??


Ja, alle.


My work machine has an intel WiFi chip and it’s given me nothing but trouble


This is the internet, not America
I actually do that on machines that don’t have nvim, because that’s easier than adjusting my muscle memory


What about aurora?
Yes. By ‘VPN technology’ I mean e.g. wireguard, openVPN, which are infeasible to ban since companies probably use the same software stack.
