You can generally pass through modern Nvidia GPUs as the entire device, provided that you let go of it in the host. It not supporting vGPUs just means you can’t virtualize and split up the GPU workload across multiple VMs, which I believe is also the case for consumer AMD GPUs as well.
The above post only applies for HTTPS traffic using a third party secure DNS - traditional P2P torrenting will leak what you are downloading to your peers. There are anonymous P2P networks like I2P that (allegedly) solve this issue, but it is not widely adopted.
For virtualization users, the driver addresses a soft lockup issue involving the vfio-pci module, which could occur after powering off a virtual machine with a passed-through NVIDIA GPU. This fix improves reliability for users running GPU passthrough in environments such as KVM or QEMU.
FydeOS is ChromeOS based, not android - in that area there’s brunch as well, which is closer to what’s officially distributed. I believe you are correct to assume that x86 android that you can just install on your own is not really a thing anymore.
cutting it from seconds to milliseconds.
Who in the world is in that much of a hurry to continue using their phone 😅
so there’s an optimization problem in there somewhere
The optimization problem is actually the point of the study, encoded as PPD, which represents the density of a display’s pixel per degree of your eye’s field of vision. It says that any more than 53-94 PPD is imperceptible to most. You can see if your display makes the cutoff if you have the viewing distance and screen size here:

I’m trying to understand, since it’s DRM-free, can I buy it and share with many people so they can play it on their PC?
You are not supposed to
Or there’s something that prevent me to do that?
Nothing technically
Does it mean that pirating GOG games is easy as transferring to other machine?
Yes
If so, I wonder why pirate sites like FitGirl still use cracked Steam version of games, why don’t just share GOG version?
Repacks are sourced from the scene, and the scene cracks video games. The fact that you get free video games out of it is a side effect.
Idk his render pipeline breakdown videos seem fairly in-depth. Is it just mumbo-jumbo?
Not especially, but it’s deceivingly surface level and doesn’t (and can’t) get into why those decisions might have been made by the programmers. The big issue is that because of his lack of experience and insight into why certain decisions were made, he somehow comes to the bizarre conclusion that there is a set of rendering techniques that are either:
Frankly though I think in practice the difference between graphics in 2015 and 2025 is negligible compared to the difference between TAA (or DLAA/FSR/XeSS/FXAA/SMAA) and x4 MSAA. The only that comes even close is Path Tracing in CP2077.
“Modern rendering features are expensive and not worth it” is a reasonable take, but it’s not what he’s pushing.
I agree he seems like a sketchy af grifter, but I’ve not seen a single good rebuttal of his actual points, and even if he was a grifter, that doesn’t invalidate what he’s saying.
The examples he demonstrates in some of his videos are “not false”, at least to the extent that he does click on some buttons on unreal engines and it does behave the way he says he does. So in this way it appears to a casual viewer that his “actual points” can not be refuted. But the grift isn’t in what he shows, it’s in the massive gap between what he shows and what he says afterwards.
That’s the guy who’s asking for a million dollars to “fix” unreal engine 5 despite having 0 programming experience and sends out dcma strikes for any videos that call him out on it, lol
EU is a democracy with different opinions, and when a small group of facists tries to read your chats, it does not represent the EU opinion.
But the whole media got you thinking so. Proving even on Lemmy, you and me are extremly prone to propaganda.
This is what the EU democracy opinion was as of July 2024 BTW, before the “media got to you”:
Crypto is just taking it to yet another new level saying we don’t even need a government to back it anymore we’ll just do math and have the math say it has value. The scam is the same in all cases.
Unless you lean towards anarchist persuasions, that’s a very significant & fundamental difference.
Hasn’t Sabine been getting in some hot water about promoting academic skepticism and making authoritative claims on fields well outside of her expertise?
TLS handles security for the email sent from your device until it reaches the server, and various HIPAA compliance rules mandates security for that data once it reaches that server. It’s not alarmingly less secure than other HIPAA compliant methods of communication, unless the email provider on your end has poor support for TLS emails.
Editing to include the disclaimer that this is for communications sent from your end. For communications sent from their end, this protection doesn’t necessarily apply (it depends on your email provider at that point, which may not be compliant), so for them to send you protected info via e-mail, they usually ask for your consent first, and usually the e-mail is just a link to a portal where you can access that information more securely.
HIPAA prevents providers from handling your information insecurely, but I don’t believe there is any rule that prevents you from handling your own information insecurely. You are allowed to refuse if you do not feel comfortable with a method of communication of course.
I’m playing through it now and the virtual tourism comparison is bang on. I personally don’t mind the repetitive gameplay so I’m still having a good time with it the rest of it though.
The only reason why consumers like you and me get to enjoy free software on modern PC hardware is because of the expectation of open standards and interoperability set way back when the industry was still growing and computer users gave a shit (or rather, when only the people who gave a shit owned a computer).
Much to the industry giants’ enthusiasm, mobile hardware stacks were developed without this baggage, and so unless something fundamental changes, all mobile devices trying to focus on free software will be doomed to failure by abysmally poor hardware support and aging hand-me-down hardware.
Not just your two android apps, any program on your system that is aware of your waydroid installation could potentially use it as a path to escalate themselves to root, which is generally regarded as a bad outcome. If you don’t care about that kind of thing, or don’t think that could ever happen to you, that’s certainly within your rights to hold such a viewpoint.
Whenever you see a linux phone advertise both security and android app support, you should be wary, since it’s likely waydroid or a waydroid fork, and their design goal of running android in a container instead of a VM has lead to some interesting security decisions.
Yep. I thought $100 for 8TB was expensive when I checked earlier this year and now the cheapest one is $140. Fuck 😂
