I did one similar! Used autohotkey to hide the task bar at random intervals and pop up a warning that said "system out of memory". Only way to get it back was autohotkey or a reboot. It would restart daily and on login so it would keep happening. And I hid it as "Nvidia game scanner service.exe" in the Nvidia bloatware folder so it looked innocent. Had a good laugh about that one

Actually, this isn't true. Apple has a vested interest in cross platform Swift. They've been pushing hard for Swift on Linux because they want Swift to run on servers, and they're right to. Look at how hard JavaScript dominates on the server-side because of one language everywhere.

I believe they're referring to lower down in the article, where the researchers analyzed existing extensions on the marketplace:

After the successful experiment, the researchers decided to dive into the threat landscape of the VSCode Marketplace, using a custom tool they developed named 'ExtensionTotal' to find high-risk extensions, unpack them, and scrutinize suspicious code snippets.

Through this process, they have found the following:

  • 1,283 with known malicious code (229 million installs).
  • 8,161 communicating with hardcoded IP addresses.
  • 1,452 running unknown executables.
  • 2,304 that are using another publisher's Github repo, indicating they are a copycat.

I assume they're talking about player names, not usernames - steam usernames are unique, but steam player names can be whatever you want and are often duplicates.

As a long time follower, this is pretty exciting! I've definitely been looking for something along these lines.

Until I trigger the collapse mechanism, the last comment in a post doesn't have the number of subcomments when it hides subcomments by default. See the below pictures for an example with a specific post, but I've noticed this on every post I've seen recently.

If I reload by pulling down, it again hides the comment number.

Without the comment number after loading the post: Without the comment number

After tapping to collapse the comment, comment count shows: After tapping

My instance has just upgraded to Lemmy v0.19.3 yesterday, but I don't see any of the new features (scaled sort etc). I tried logging out and back in (had to anyway as the subscriptions weren't showing). Switching to a different instance on 0.19.3 shows the correct features, but when I switch back, nothing.

FYI user mentions in Lemmy are done with an @ not /u/, e.g. @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml

Excited to see the Jellyfin UX improving - it's probably the biggest reason I use Plex over Jellyfin (not that Plex is THAT much better...)

Yeah but it's awful, and can only install UWP apps which are just plain bad

I'd like to point out, the value add of Rust isn't speed, it's safety in a low-level language. C is also just as fast, it's just that Rust guarantees safety in a wide class of potential catastrophic bugs with little to no runtime overhead, by using the design of the language and compiler.

Actually no, Lewis is parodying the Bible: https://www.biblehub.com/1_corinthians/13-11.htm

The Bible quote does say that, but he's poking fun at it by saying "why so serious?"

No, practically speaking the domain name should have no effect on access time. DNS has so many layers of caching that as long as SOMEONE has accessed the website nearby (including you), the domain lookup will be local and therefore fast.

Anyway, DNS lookup times, even slow ones, are still not going to be noticable to the end use originally.
