Shops in Sweden very often state that they don’t accept cash - and it’s perfectly legal for them to make that choice.

We have cash?

Haven’t used it for years.

Troll comment.

You do that - you die.

Please show me that guideline, anywhere.

It’s on my new VW ID.7 in Europe at least. Drove during dark for the first time a few weeks ago and it was pretty amazing seeing the matrix headlights “sculpt” the light around other cars.

Distracting in the beginning, but you get used to it.

All of the statements in the claim need to be fulfilled - so while that if looks correct it’s only a very small part of the actions described. Example:

in association with selecting, based on a selection operation,[…], wherein the boarding object is selected among a plurality of types of objects that the player character owns;

IANAL - but I’ve worked for Big Company and have gone through the patent process a few times. A patent isn’t what’s written in the supporting text and abstract. It’s only the exact thing written out in the claims.

First claim from the patent the abstract is from:

1. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having stored therein a game program causing a computer of an information processing apparatus to provide execution comprising:

   controlling a player character in a virtual space based on a first operation input;

   in association with selecting, based on a selection operation, a boarding object that the player character can board and providing a boarding instruction, causing the player character to board the boarding object and bringing the player character into a state where the player character can move, wherein the boarding object is selected among a plurality of types of objects that the player character owns;

   in association with providing a second operation input when the player character is in the air, causing the player character to board an air boarding object and bringing the player character into a state where the player character can move in the air; and

   while the player character is aboard the air boarding object, moving the player character, aboard the air boarding object, in the air based on a third operation input.

Exactly everything described above must be done in that exact same way for there to be an infringement.

Love it. While not all titles get replaced (crowd sourced) just the fact that the thumbnails get normalized is enough for it to be worth it.

This is the way to do it.

Agree. I’m an absolutely awesome software dev myself - and I know C by heart (being my favorite language after assembler). However, with age comes humility and the ability to recognize that I will write buggy code every now and then.

Better the language saves me when I can’t, in security critical situations.

Yeah, let’s see what Bagder has to say about this:

C is unsafe and always will be

The C programming language is not memory-safe. Among the 150 reported curl CVEs, we have determined that 61 of them are “C mistakes”. Problems that most likely would not have happened had we used a memory-safe language. 40.6% of the vulnerabilities in curl reported so far could have been avoided by using another language.

Rust is virtually the only memory-safe language that is starting to become viable.

Citing scientific research is. Now, please post your gut feeling in response.

Isn’t that exactly the strawman the maintainer got tired of?

Do you believe C isn’t crap when it comes to security? Please explain why and I’ll happily debate you.

/fw hacker, reverse engineer

C is crap for anything where security matters. I’ll happily take that debate with anyone who thinks differently.

Sorry, I forgot to make it clear that the point was that your “maybe in the future…” is already the same as how it works now. No difference.

This is how the protocol works.

1. You only get content from those you follow (in your home feed).

2. Your server’s local feed will contain all posts made by users on your server.

3. Your server’s global feed will contain all posts from users someone on your server follows.

Note how #3 isn’t actually a global feed. Spin up your own server at home and it will be the same as your home feed when you’re the only users.

Even if you federate with Threads, there’s simply no way for them to “inject ads” into any of these feeds.

You don’t get posts from accounts you don’t follow. My server’s global feed only includes posts from accounts people on my server follow.

Just claiming “it will” is not a counter argument. That’s not how the protocol works.

I follow many Threads accounts.
