It feels very nice knowing that my assumption was not completely bonkers. Thanks for confirming my sanity 🙏
Although, then I wonder, what is even the purpose of Vanguard apart from data collection? Because this attack-vector clearly negates the entire purpose of Vanguard.
Its just jokes, no hard feelings ❤️ Although it is annoying that they just accept spyware to play a game, but hey, thats their choice
This my greatest joy, i constantly need to justify not installing LoL to my friends because of Riots shitty anti-cheat. This proves that kernel-level is just unnecessary. And ive always wondered how you can claim it grants any protection at all when MacOS users can play without it? Its not like you couldnt cheat on a MacBook.
Maybe not related to your situation but first thing i remembered was seeing this linked yesterday:
I know, i know, reddit ass but still, heres. a thread discussing it with VOD clips linked. TW tho…
Kik and Kick, different platforms. Great naming, i know 🙃
Id find a better source than me for this but from what ive been told a Kick streamer got repeatedly abused when failing challenges or games during his streams. The abusers also streamed and took suggestions from chat on how to abuse him. Kick also promoted their stream. The abused streamer was seen multiplex time panicking or having breakdowns over what the abusers were going to do. Allegedly one of the last things seen was the abusers smashing a glass bottle in his head.
I do not know how much of this is true or made up. Would be very thankful for sources and corrections. I just know Kick is a dogshit platform heavily promoting gamblers on the front page, so this wouldnt surprise me.
My girlfriend keeps telling me i could make a fortune off my feet. If I ever meet someone with an actual feet fetish i will make sure to get them rated.
Honestly, a bit fucked up your dad takes control over who you date and spend time with. But as the others said, you can atleast go there for a free meal and hopefully make a new friend. I do understand the weird pressure this would put on you though. I hope all goes well, and dont feel pressure to pursue a relationship if youre not feeling it. Your dad cant be the deciding factor in that
Cursor is an AI code editor. Like most code editors it leaves a hidden settings file in the project. This file can then deliberately (or accidentally) be commited to the repo.
I dislike using AI when im writing my own code, simply because I do not believe AI is fair use or leads to anything positive for the creators of the works its trained on. I do use it to debug some stuff or get some hints but always double check whether the solution is good afterwards. With that said, if the cursorfile is just a settings file it only proves that someone has used AI in their IDE, the code itself does not necessarily have to be generated by an AI. And even if it were it could still be fine, it all comes down to the developers and the review process. The code is not inherently flawed because an AI wrote it. As long as humans are there to point out, find and prevent issues/security flaws its fine to use.
Here comes the problem though. The term “vibe coding” mainly refers to people with little to no skill as developers, mainly relying on AI to do the heavy lifting. That is very problematic. Thats when security flaws, issues and tech debt start to rack up. I havent looked at the code or researched repo history, but i would believe these devs are better than “vibe coders”
Is anyone surprised?
If this does what it says on the box its huge
Surely this wont backfire…
This is it. Theyve been going after encrypted messaging apps for a long time, ig they realized theyre not getting anywhere and figured to just hit it head on.
The internet has always circumvented this kind of shit, just look at TPB. The ones who are getting really beaten up by this is the older generations and the ones lacking technical know-how.
Im not even in the UK and im still going to cancel due to this. Thanks spotify, fuck you :)
Yeah. I know. Even though I hate Riot I guess some part of me wanted to believe their garbage anti-cheat wasn’t ONLY a harvester for private data
