Is there an easy way of having a vm with gpu pass through to play windows games ?
  • even with cpu passthrough some things are still emulated. you can run a vm detector and see for yourself what tests fail.

    it may not affect your games but others should still be careful since it is a real issue, and people do get banned for it.

  • proton has support for quite a few kernel level anti cheat now, although it has to be explicitly allowed by the dev. needs to be run via steam I think, but you can add non steam games if you got them elsewhere

  • Is there an easy way of having a vm with gpu pass through to play windows games ?
  • machine id isn't necessarily the important part. anticheat and vm detection check a lot of different heuristics incl hard to defend against things like timing attacks on particular cpu instructions. there's a handful of open source versions if you're curious

  • Zero-Knowledge Location Privacy via Accurate Floating-Point SNARKs
  • you have to be more specific lol

    just tesselate the world with hexagons and say you're in a specific one? that doesn't give precise proximity but does expose your general area.

    this does the opposite, doesn't expose your general area but let's you determine if it is close to some other location via an expensive comparison. the precision of proximity isn't tied to how precise a location/small a hexagon you're exposing

  • Advice on improving Plex experience?
  • sorry no, the servarr site. look at this section for docker info. I think the links from there should have most of the background info

    the docker builds it uses are unofficial technically, but the source is here, you can see that the only thing it does is download the official build

  • Zero-Knowledge Location Privacy via Accurate Floating-Point SNARKs
  • as per the first paragraph of the intro of the linked paper, it's safer to store this than it is an actual location. if data gets leaked it's like leaking a hashed password instead of a plaintext one. their example is device trackers.

  • Sanders: Democratic Party ‘has abandoned working class people’
  • there is the democratic socialists of america that have a handful of elected officials, oddly not including bernie. it seems like they're more of a sub party or organization within the dems though, not their own party

  • Removed
    It's not just a browser
  • llvm exists. it might be a bit of effort if you've used too many proprietary gcc extensions, but for most things I don't think it's terrible to just switch between gcc and clang

  • Finally did it, got my parent on linux.
  • no, it's still a smoother experience ootb for things like c# desktop apps. in vscode you don't get a wysiwig wpf designer and such, and xaml completion is worse to non existent.

    It does seem to be a newer dev thing though, myself and my jr devs use vscode as much as we can and jump back to VS only when necessary, the older devs on my team are all 100% visual studio and will be forever

  • How Couples Meet in the US
  • I think the difference is that variable is the entire population of coupled adults. Of course not 60% of all couples met online, but I'd believe 60% of couples that met this year met online.

  • Bike Manufacturers Are Making Bikes Less Repairable
  • I had a top end Specialized xc bike that's basically useless now because it has a proprietary rear shock, like all of their bikes of that line for the past 10 years. I couldn't even buy a replacement from them since they aren't compatible between different years and they stopped making the old versions.

  • Nintendo shuts down Switch emulator Ryujinx
  • doesn't matter if they don't know who you are, Nintendo can still offer you a ton of money to delete it. it wasn't necessarily legal threats or I assume they would have sent the cease and desist to GitHub and gotten the repo removed first
