must be doing software rendering

Could try running it under mangohud. Dunno if that indicates the renderer being used, but I’d guess that it likely does, and would let you test that theory.

One Windows user here had some problem with very low FPS in the game, and found that limiting FPS in the Nvidia software resolved it. I’m suppose that it’s not impossible that it’s some bug in the game that you’re also tripping.

If I ever need to unload 40 tons of illicitly-obtained meat, I’ll be going to you, Mr. Semi.

Might complicate reducing radar signature.

Also, it seems like kind of a specialized tool. You want it to have a low stall speed but also high maximum speed. The F-14 was a naval interceptor – intended to take off from and land on carriers at low speed, buy also dash out quickly enough to intercept incoming strikes against that carrier.

I don’t know if there are many situations that have that combination of characteristics.

It was the only search result relevant to my query.

Paste it into archive.org’s Wayback Machine. Good odds that they’ve stored a copy. I’d do it for you and just link to the page, but you don’t list the URL…

This appears to be a Luanti mod for sprinting that was released within the last two weeks, so I’m assuming that it’s not whatever one they were talking about that stopped working.

Click the headphones button.

I really think that Wikipedia should fix this on their end. URLs are by definition intended to be universal, not tied to the viewing platform.

If they have to provide some kind of way to force desktop or mobile versions, okay. But for God’s sake, have the default be to show mobile on mobile and desktop on desktop but don’t by default detect the platform and then encode information in the URL to force a version of the website.

Ah, gotcha. Hmm.

I’ve no familiarity with it, but it looks like this runs on iOS, might also be an option:

It looks to be open-source and on GitHub.

Just run LibreOffice locally?

hey could also contain various animals that could distrupt the ecosystem,

The only thing that an egg that someone is likely smuggling in is going to contain is a chicken, and we’re also currently short of the egg-laying variants of chickens, so a black-market Canuck egg-laying chicken wouldn’t go amiss either.

Technically, I don’t think that being in the Commonwealth as it exists in 2025 would actually change much. It’s a pretty loose organization these days. More than a third of the world’s population is in it.

Being in the Commonwealth realms, which are the Commonwealth members that have King Charles as head of state, would, I suspect, be unconstitutional.

You as a user can not just DDoS someone. Modern connections a way faster and modern network hardware with drop packets that are taking up to much bandwidth.

You know, I thought about responding to this point by point, but I just don’t have the energy.

I’ll just say that I don’t agree, and I think that if you want to go looking, you’ll find that this certainly is not the case.

I mean, it (hopefully) shouldn’t let someone compromise a system remotely, but:

• For those of you who have used IRC networks that didn’t mask IP addresses, people getting in flamewars proceeding to then DDoSing each other is a fundamental issue. If someone wants to do something at low latency, like play real-time video games, this is a particularly obnoxious way to disrupt them.

• IP addresses can often be correlated across databases, even by random members of the public. I remember someone running another bot that would map IP addresses to BitTorrent downloads, for example.

End of the day, the Lemmy security model is “someone can see the username you choose to expose, but not IP address”. If the IP address is intended to be exposed, then might as well just stick it right next to the username. If it isn’t, then one shouldn’t let users be able to trivially-obtain it by pulling a direct-message stunt.

0.19.6. Could be that there’s some configuration option.

One thing I would keep in mind is that the Win64 API does change from release-to-release and that my guess is that if very few people using a software package are still using a version of Windows, application software developers may stop intentionally avoiding newer API calls and features, and will just have their new release require a newer version of Windows.

That may be okay for some use cases, like if you just want to keep an existing system working. But I think that it’s worth keeping in mind that you may increasingly not be able to use:

• New software packages.

• Newer releases of existing packages.

• Software packages that make use of cloud-based services that drop support.

They’re probably going to take into account the percentage of people using the thing in setting their compatibility targets for developers and their testing.

Windows 11 is the most secure Windows ever built, with comprehensive end-to-end security

Does “end-to-end security” actually mean anything in this context, or is it just intended to evoke “end-to-end encryption”?

Some left-wing French legislator did. Had a post about on !news@lemmy.world or somewhere like that, saw it recently.

“Absolutely not. My advice to that unnamed low-level French politician would be to remind them that it’s only because of the United States of America that the French are not speaking German right now,” said White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt in a press briefing Monday, likely referencing an American-French allyship during World War II that snuffed out Nazi Germany. “They should be grateful.”

Ehhh…maybe yes, maybe no. It’s not clear to me that the Allies lose, even if it’s just the UK and USSR as the major powers.

I’d think that a larger issue might be whether the Soviet Union winds up taking control of Western Europe.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Union_(alliance)

The Western Union (WU), also referred to as the Brussels Treaty Organisation (BTO),[1] was the European military alliance established between France, the United Kingdom (UK) and the three Benelux countries in September 1948 in order to implement the Treaty of Brussels signed in March the same year.[Note 1] Under this treaty the signatories, referred to as the five powers, agreed to collaborate in the defence field as well as in the political, economic and cultural fields.

When the division of Europe into two opposing camps became unavoidable, the threat of the Soviet Union became much more important than the threat of German rearmament.[8] Western Europe, therefore, sought a new mutual defence pact involving the United States, a powerful military force for such an alliance. The United States, concerned with containing the influence of the Soviet Union, was responsive.[9] Secret meetings began by the end of March 1949 between American, Canadian and British officials to initiate the negotiations that led to the signing of the North Atlantic Treaty on 4 April 1949 in Washington, D.C.[10]

The need to back up the commitments of the North Atlantic Treaty with appropriate political and military structures led to the creation of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO). On 20 December 1950 the Consultative Council of the Brussels Treaty Powers decided to merge the military organisation of the Western Union into NATO.

I suppose that more automated testing could help catch some of these before releases.

Hmm. Do they accept an HTTP Range-Request?
