> "his Kung Fu is strong."

Was this a reference to Mitnick's phone calls to Tsutomo?


Was already familiar with the story from her YT video[1] about it, which goes into way more details and less conference fluff. But the real gem in this talk seems to be the Q&A that starts at around the 28m mark.

Reminder that Denuvo is not an anti-cheat, it's DRM.


Reminder not needed.

Many of these solutions, both DRM and anti-cheat, work using the principle of checking if the user is using the original unmodified files, and checking if the user is not also modifying the memory of the running program with some tool.


DRM has the additional goal of restricting who can use even those unmodified, genuine files, whereas anticheat does not.


Eric S. Raymond commented on that commit, congratulating wm4.


It's the reddit effect. As reddit's popularity keep increasing for the past 5 years or so, HN links posted on the platform get that much more attention. Specially true for indians, pakistanis and chinese.

$ mpv --list-<options|properties>

Pipe to a grep-like program for keywords.


> mpv --no-video --vo=null --ytdl-format='bestaudio/best' 'lofi hip hop radio - beats to relax/study to'

With --ytdl-format='bestaudio' there's no need to disable the video track or use the null vo.


Maybe that behavior is Linux-exclusive? Under macOS and Windows, if I only use --ytdl-format='bestaudio/best' with livestreams mpv will spawn a window with the video.


I'm on Windows as well. Just get rid of the 'best' argument for '--ytdl-format'. Also, 'bestaudio' is mostly only known as a keyword for Youtube videos.


"Climate Change" was one of the topics discussed at "Rio Summit" in 92 [1].

I remember some ~20 years ago, only going thru their HOWTO was very revealing about the system innards and I remember having a blast. I never went trough a real LFS install because I lacked an extra box at the time, but it is something the lingered on the back of my head since.


"Do you agree with me or are you racist?"


Exactly, and the "nice" approach is talking to people gently about why what they said is "harmful" or bad. But you still have to come to the same agreement or you're bad. It's not actually tolerance its "we'll give you a pass if you come to our side".
