I suppose the Meta Quest headsets are still very well liked.
They can’t make people use their dogshit VRChat clone no matter what but the hardware itself is fine.

We previously explored Swift, but the C++ interop never quite got there, and platform support outside the Apple ecosystem was limited

It’s as if everybody told you this the second you announced your move to Swift but aight.

I’ve seen some plugins for Discord and Telegram forks that let you double tap your own message to edit and I really wish this would become the standard.
But noooo, seems most apps don’t have a double tap action or only use it for Emoji Reactions. Wow, truly putting the most useful actions at our fingertips 😒

That’s gonna be weird during sex

Calm down dude, don’t crucify the guy just because he doesn’t want to directly expose his server to the outside.

Huh, YouTube recommended me a short 2 minute film just like this today.

Look, I know Croteam had good reasons to do Talos Principle 2 in UE5 instead of the Serious Sam Engine but ouch owie oof my rx 580 🥲

The original Talos Principle, easily one of the most stunning games I’ve played.
By the time I reached the desert stages I would regularly just stop and look around, soaking it in.
Damnit I need to buy a VR headset just to play it again in VR!

Hey man, sorry you’re going through this.

Realistically I don’t think there’s much more you can do than what you’re already doing.
You wiped your machines, wiped the router, wiped the “smart home” devices, that’s it.
Now what you gotta do is:

• Change the password to your important services and ensure 2FA is on for everything (Do you have a Android phone? I recommend the Aegis app)
• Did you have IDs or Documents on the files they got their hands on? If so, stay vigilant to ensure they won’t try to get loans or a credit line in your name.
• Separate the “Smart home” stuff into its own VLAN (Assuming you can’t just get rid of it altogether)
• Consider where this Malware came from. It originated via Wine, but how?
  Were you running pirated software on there? If so, the source you got it from isn’t to be trusted.

this is meant to spread across as many machines as possible […] How many people out there […] What if they get someone who works in […] It is so bad and I cannot get any one to listen to me. They think I’m a lunatic.

Most viruses are meant to spread as wide as possible, what’s important above all is that you must calm down.
Saving the world is not your responsibility, if your local Cybersecurity division doesn’t want to help, oh well. Focus on Securing your stuff.
If you truly want to help, consider sending the infected .DLL to a service like VirusTotal. If it’s a new malware they haven’t seen before, the virus’ signature gets shared.
Also consider filling a complaint to IC3. While I don’t think they’ll reach out back to you, if this is a new Botnet or new Crime network they’re not already aware of, your report will bring it to their attention.

In relation to isolating your apps from each other, maybe take a look into QubeOS. It’s built from the ground up for this purpose, though it might prove rather overkill for most users.

It should theoretically be possible on any Android device […] Google is branding this as Pixel exclusive to push Pixel

The last decade of Android, summarized.

Goddamn, I’m glad I didn’t bother creating an account there when people were singing it’s praises.

So far the best AI tool use policy I’ve read, specially this bit:

Your PR body should be providing context to other developers about why a change was made, and if your name is on it, we want your words and explanations, not an LLM’s. If you can’t explain what the LLM did, we are not interested in the change.

“normal” people don’t bring firearms to a protest rally

That’s not what y’all were saying about Rittenhouse.

That’s just how search engines go now.
Lately I’ve been seeing websites that steal content from Stack Overflow verbatim rank higher than the same SO page itself.

Well, it isn’t disinformation, it’s propaganda

MTP is awful, it wouldn’t shoe thumbnails even on Windows for me, the issue might not be on the KDE side at all.

Worst part is calling it a “Letter” when it’s really just a post on his dogshit Twitter clone

I’d guess a Samsung Fold
