  • This is incorrect. If you properly test your code such errors will become visible.

    Ah, just as all the memory-mishandling related security issues in all operating systems out there. Nobody tests their shit well enough nowadays!

    You are quick with being judgemental and ignoring the rest of what I said in that part,

    Quick??? Read all your other comments man! I take it as you not wanting to accept it.

    I suppose we need to make definitions clearer. C++ is memory safe in the sense that you can write memory safe code. It doesn’t enforce memory safety though. But not doing that is not the language’s fault. If someone jumps with a bike from a flying airplane, it’s not the bike’s fault that they will not land safely. It’s the misuse of the bike.

    saying that C++ is memory safe because it’s possible to use it in a memory safe manner is like saying jumping out of a plane with the bike is safe, because it’s possible to safely land (with a parachute and a lot of training).

    you always repeat that C++ is memory safe because its possible, and that “misuse” is “not its fault”.
    first, you are quite simply redefining what does memory safety mean. you basically say bombs are safe because they can be safely defused with the expertise.
    second, do you really need to misuse it to get unsafe code? it does not warn anywhere. not in the instructions, not in the compiler output.
    third, its no one’s “fault” that c++ is not memory safe. That’s not a fault of c++. like its not a fault of factories that you have to wear safery gear when working inside because otherwise you may get injured more severely. this is just a property of C++, not a judgement

    I’d argue those weren’t the best developers then.

    oh no, my suspension was correct, you are really thinking that you are the perfect coder who jever makes any mistakes. It does not make sense to argue with you








  • I would think that if it had access to those in the discord app, it would still be able to do so in the web browser, but now it would ask for your permission.
    I have never used such devices, but I assume that either they appear as normal audio source devices in the system, or voicemeeter makes one for them.

    at the same time its ridiculous how limited voicemeeter is regarding the number of audio devices it can handle. its an artificial limit, even in the paid version

    I don’t have some objective reason personally, I just don’t like web apps for 90℅ of things.

    me neither, but the discord app is a webapp just as well. the difference is that it runs its own browser engine, and so uses more system memory, and that it has free access to everything in your computer (and your local network), including your files, the audio devices, and lots more information on how you use it.

    I’m curious does the web app allow for pass-through audio devices (an audio interface) or things like voicemeeter?

    I’m not sure, I don’t understand what do you mean by pass through audio devices. what do you use it for?





  • if you want to access NTFS partitions on linux, you should turn off “fast startup” in windows. control panel, energy saving, “choose what the power button does” menu. (so intuitive, eh?)

    when that’s ticked in, it will always just hibernate the system after logging out, and that’s a nono, and a big one if dualbooting (even just 2 windowses)




  • 750 Ti, and the driver is still garbage. on plasma wayland had to turn off window previews on taskbar for the environment to not freeze randomly. a kernel update earlier there was an 80% chance the whole thing would crash after login on the firsf frame of the desktop, or before that. gamescope has problems thanks to nvidua unique things: FSR is pure blackness but even without that, games are tearing and slow while even a test animation like vkcube maxes out a cpu core of a cpu that’s not nearly that bad. and that’s just been the product of a single week of linux usage on the desktop.
