It was a really good app for quite a bit and had the best inking experience compared to the non-UWP version. A few years back they announced merging the features to the Win32 version and it has since been more or less on par now.

You don't have to use it. I for one am glad for this feature.

I have ublock origin on desktop and revanced patched youtube and I don't have any of this issues. So it might just simply be YouTube being YouTube.

Pre-ordered one immediately. I miss my old Pebble Time Steel so much. Part of me wishes there's one with that design but I'll take what I can get.

Oh whoops, I misunderstood what the video was supposed to show. Yea that tracks.

I mean I don't like Tesla either and I agree that they should use Lidars but how is a Lidar supposed to solve this issue? It's still a solid surface and the Lidar will still pick it up.

This does provide another tool for them to claim it isn't censored but label it as AI to hurt the credibility of dissidents though. I don't think it doesn't matter.

Maybe I'm generalising it a bit but it does seem like the main issue is the lack of open mindedness, compassion and an inclination for aggressive responses rather than simply agreeing to disagree.

Which unfortunately is a difficult thing to achieve since you need both sides to have the same mindset for any healthy discussion to happen. The moment one side decides to be antagonistic, it quickly derails the tone of the conversation regardless how open the other side may be. Heck this happens all the time here. It's called no stupid questions but people will still flame others for asking questions lol.

The scissor statement just serves to accelerate whatever problem already exists.

Most competent engineers don't think that. They know and understand the limitations of what they're working on. They just do it because the finance bros pay.

That's not the point they're trying to make I think. It's more of an attack on perfection. Like "the alternative is not perfect either so why not just stay with Chrome". It's not a very strong argument in general but it might be enough to keep people from switching.

I can't say I buy this fully. From a marketkng standpoint, it seems like a huge win: "Subscribe to game pass ultimate and you get thousands of games old and new, up by thousands from last year". From a financial standpoint, running those emulators should be a lot less compute heavy than current games so it should be cheaper.

The only real issue I see here is legal. Licensing the rights to distribute the games via streaming for their entire back catalogue can't be easy.

Unfortunately there's plenty of people who are perfectly fine with that. When given evidence of it happening before, they'll go oh "it won't happen here" or "it won't happen again". How do you convince people like them that simply don't care for the value of life? Of course a number of these are also "pro-lifers".

 

About a year back, I posted on this Reddit about a work-in-progress version of this guide to creating a C# scripting engine that uses a modern .NET back-end instead of relying on Mono. I'm happy to share that I've finished the full set of posts and hope that it'll help someone out!

Currently, the sample I have is currently targeted for Windows-only engines due to the reliance on Visual Studio and C++/CLI but I can definitely see this potentially working on other platforms using P/Invoke instead.
