It shows up exactly the same for all the revisions though.

Thankfully the Framework Laptop fingerprint reader works.
I use the DigitalPersona 4500 with libfprint. Unfortunately, there are multiple revisions of the device with the same model number and only some of them work properly under Linux (different encryption method I believe). As far as I know this is not actually documented anywhere. Googling just shows a bunch of unresolved bug reports of people having no idea why it doesn’t work.
how on earth does that work? I thought it had to have an always-on VPN connection to do any filtering (or not)
For windows I either use a mingw toolchain from mxe.cc or just run the msvc compiler in wine, works great for standard C and C++ at least, even when you use Qt or other third party libraries.
A subpoena can still reveal the owner’s information to the world. Even if it’s a frivolous lawsuit that ends up getting tossed.
let’s try to be nicer
NFC payments that require my unlocked phone to use are a lot more secure than a physical card that can be stolen.
No access to google pay is a non-starter for me, I use it constantly to pay for lots of things.
you don’t have to load the code every time, you can save it and run locally, this is exactly what the Element desktop app does, it’s just an electron loader for a local copy of the website, and you can choose to update it whenever you want
We can see you totally didn’t do that. Also how would you even get the update?
Japan has been requiring fingerprints AND photographs for all incoming visitors for the better part of two decades now.
If a foreign national who is required to be fingerprinted and photographed refuses to comply with this requirement, he/she will be denied entry to Japan.
Open Technology Fund
Which is funded by US Congress, and they also funded Signal.
For those do not wish to use privacy-related projects funded by a world government, what is a good (in your opinion) alternative? Both with and without Tor involvement (since US govt funded that too).
Yes I realize encryption, computers and the internet are all also govt-funded, but everyone is free to pick their battles.
licenses are only as useful as your ability to enforce them in court
it’s not really “open source” anymore per OSI, specifically #6: https://opensource.org/osd
He claims to have gotten permission from the contributors… not sure where you heard that they didn’t.
for some reason a lot of emudevs are very hostile to the whole idea of forking. mame also famously hates retroarch for it, as well as inolen from redream and skmp from reicast/nullcast, probably more.
this isn’t even the first project that an emudev has directly relicensed or even shut down their entire emulator for over a retroarch fork, which is usually done in the first place due to maintenance problems with the original emudev.
as others have said, the whole scene just seems to attract the kind of genius that too often steps over that fine line. out of the probably couple dozen emudevs I know, the vast majority have explicitly stated themselves that they suffer from severe mental health issues.

also almost every /vg/emugen thread is full of “danny drama”
For good privacy (from fingerprinting) it is undoubtedly a bad choice.
exactly… it needs the vpn to even pass anything through… but the apps that don’t work with vpns… don’t work with vpns. as in, it detects the presence of an android vpn connection and refuses to work, it’s not related to what internet connection it actually uses, just that a system-controlled vpn is active on the device.
