Their CEO has gone out of his way to shit talk Linux multiple times on Twitter/X, spreading false information, he is also vehemently against doing the bare minimum to allow their games to work on Linux (enabling EAC support for proton in their games, which by their own words is just a checkbox). They also have no Linux support in their embarrassment of a launcher, which is why everyone recommends Heroic, even when using Windows because it actually has features.
A one time donation of what amounts to an insignificant rounding error for them to try to appease people unhappy with their stance on Linux does not mean they are not "against" Linux.
Additionally, instead of actually trying to compete and gain users but making a platform that isn't trash, they insist on instead trying to trick users with temporary free game offers. And if that doesn't work, they try to strong arm users into going to their platform by buying exclusive sales rights to games, bringing exclusives to the PC gaming space.
Their CEO is a loud clown who is always spouting nonsense on Twitter. They buy games studios and rip their games off of the platform where users bought them (see Rocket League), and discontinue mac/Linux versions that were fully functional.
Their flagship game preys on children via micro transactions. They lack so many features on their platform that (I believe) they have endorsed using Steams community features for games bought on Epic.
I could probably go on, but I think that's probably sufficient.
Everyone here seeing this: "Wow so sleek, amazing!"
Meanwhile, Mozilla: "Yeah so we're going to remove compact title bars in favor of touch friendly nonsense. OK. Fine. We will just hide it in about:config until later when we will silently remove it."
I found this amusing enough to try it out. It does actually compile (I used g++ for this). However, the current implementation just goes into an infinite loop if you enter a number >= 2.
I think the original author meant to do n -= 1 rn in the tweakin loop that is inside the bussin loop. That way, at some point n % i finna cap will be false, and i will bouta. Which then makes the expression i <= n in the bussin loop eventually false, so we stop bussin and yeet cap rn.
However, that would mean that the intention of the program isn't to output prime factors, because even with this fix it does not do so. The structure of mf chief() also doesn't suggest that is the purpose as it is missing another tweakin and sussin like this example of calculating prime factors in C++.
Example run:
$ ./zpp.exe
Enter a number larger than 1: 50
2
7
8
47
Some of that seems unnecessary (device boot time). But it's not all scary spooky tracking. Some permissions/information is required for certain features.
For example, you can't rotate your app UI if you're not allowed to know screen orientation. Or maybe they do a low power mode if device battery is low, or a warning that the app might not function well if the OS or device is old.
Not saying you're wrong or that Discord is right. Just pointing out that a long list of permissions isn't on its own a bad thing, if those permissions are required for specific features, and not just for the sake of data harvesting.
