@matzipan most of them own associated companies stocks, i.e. most of them are employees and owners ;-) just making a case how ridiculous argument that is.

I don't know maybe there he has done something in private life that I'm not aware of (I don't follow what celebrities are doing or have done).

I'm not saying "Block Inc." is "good", but neither I see how it is "worse" than any of the aforementioned companies.

In a conference where Microsoft, Google and Meta employees are giving talks, Jack Dorsey and Block Inc. is the prime evil :-)

A #vim thing that I tend to forget.

q: in normal mode gives you a buffer containing the history of ex command-lines for the sake of convenient copy-paste.

There's enough AAA titles in Steam for instance to keep SDL alive in foreseeable future. It's way too big ecosystem to die.

Just interested. Even with Rust it would be a great solution in many cases, as it has the "long-term solution" benefit. Many other libraries come and go.

Does SDL 3.x do immediate mode GUI like for plugins and stuff? I.e. similarly as egui and imgui (with appropriate backends)?

@phoenix the sponsor list for this year.

It's total hypocrisy and nonsense to complain about Jack Dorsey giving a keynote and this *objectively* proves it. Get a life.

@phoenix There's every single year employees of Meta, Google and Microsoft giving talks at FOSDEM. Why do you allow that to happen? :-)

how an interns attempts to familiarize themselves with a codebase, and spice up the comments resulting in finding a major security vulnerability. Via Reddit, via 🤷‍♀️

One more existential reason for v4l2-loopback: testing video4linux features other than v4l2-loopback.

It is always nice to have a module in the stack that can pretend to be a piece of hardware in various end-to-end tests.

Just writing these down so that I can make a credible cover letter at the time :-)

I did this one big refactor few days ago: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/jarkko/linux-tpmdd.git/commit/?h=v4l2-loopback&id=ccb1b6e1247887be17bf22b3809c50848e87a4db

I'm still editing it up until I'm happy with capture/output separation and some other things related (e.g. life-cycle and removal).

Obviously once I sent a patch set I will squash everything before sending...

Personally I think that it would make a lot of sense to have this type of meta-data in DNS attributes. I.e. some means to say that this IP is a blockchain node and the type of the blockchain. Not much else but it could help a lot with low cost.

I've talked to my colleagues that one thing that strikes me in presentations given about any blockchain technology, is that they have a problem that the presentation goes straight into cryptography and smart contracts.

What you *actually* should start with is how the network discovery works. I.e. plain and simple how network nodes find each other. It's not flashy but it is like the first question for any seasoned engineer.

In order to do the secret handshakes you need to first bump into someone else to do your dance.

@cesarb @pid_eins Also even if all those procedure were taken care of (rescue password locked into PCR's), I would never use a computer, which has been physically compromised. A physical compromise is a game over as far as I'm concerned, and TPM's work best against software attacks :-) That has been the driving design goal in the standard.
