  • If all that you wanna do is download stuff, maybe try https://cobalt.tools

    It pretty much just grabs the raw URL to the content for you, without the UI and fluff (in the case of Instagram) so you can just do a little "save as..." and it's worked quite reliably for me to view content my friends sent me.

  • I mean, to be completely fair, that's how data storage works.

    We cannot really just make data disappear, so we let it get overwritten instead

  • Note that tons of instances have increased the limit FAR beyond 500 chars. Mine has 2000.

  • You can actually put alt-text in images, ![alt-text](URL)

  • The algorithm was neither proposed nor designed by the US government, it was made by (what is now known as) Signal, a 501c nonprofit.

    The claims of signal being "state-sponsored" come from assuming how money flows through the OTF - Open Tech Fund - which has gotten grants from government programs before. (IIRC)

    It wouldn't make sense for the US Gov. to make such a grant to make a flawed protocol, as any backdoor they introduce for themselves would work for any outside attacker too - it's mathematics. It works for everyone or for no one. Would they really wanna make tools that they themselves use, just to have it backdoored by other state actors?

    And again, Durov's claims are entirely assumptions, and that coming from someone that has had [various](https://mtpsym.github.io// different vulnerabilities and weird bugs on their platform

  • As per the MV3 Specification, it is supposed to remove some APIs.

    Firefox included them anyways cuz they're not assholes.

  • Manifest V3 changes capabilities and meta-data about extensions, including limiting lots of things that worsen the experience for AdBlock Users.

    Google's "cookie replacement" is Ad Topics, which collects your browser history and puts it into categories, sending those categories to websites.

  • That already exists, but it's weak in terms of encryption.

  • Musk himself hasn't actually provided any sources either, all his statements made on Twitter recently are basically pulled from thin air, almost like vague references

  • the collision is much less of a problem, the issue was that even if you clipped through you had to be in the walking state to open the door (you could clip through before!)

    This new tactic involves doing a turnaround, after which for ~1 frame you enter the walking state in midair, allowing you to open the door after being pushed through by the penguin at the right time.

  • it sucks but can you blame them?

    For picking discord I very much can blame them, I figure it won't be long until that goes down the drain too.

  • Just so you know, the actual source code for this project mentions both Jamulator and another project that did this for the N64.

  • ...what did you get away with then? 🤔

  • Nintendo has not taken action on the massively popular SM64 Decompilation and PC ports (and ironically switch ports) in the past what...3 years?

  • Know what? That you just AI Generated this?

  • (the sync can actually be self-hosted and is OSS, the DRM is third-party and proprietary)

  • They probably mean the Super Mario 64 Decompilation Project.

    The goal was to turn the finished ROM back into unable code, that would do 1:1 the same thing. They finished a couple of years back.

    https://github.com/n64decomp/sm64

  • Indeed, these decom projects do not include any of Nintendo's assets.

    The code compiles 1:1 back into a unable ROM but isn't made just using a source code leak. It is reverse-engineered just like the SM64 decomp

  • Bazzite is a Fedora Atomic-based operating system intended for Gaming, so you get a lot of the same benefits of that whilst still including all kinds of Gaming-Focused tweaks and patches out of the box. It is also immutable, e.g the system cannot be modified arbitrarily, whilst offering tools to still make modifications to the installed images if you want.
