Maybe kinda, but it’s also a third party whose certificates are almost if not entirely universally trusted. Self-signed certs cause software to complain unless you also spread a root certificate to be trusted to any machine that might use one of your self-signed certs.

Yes, it did eliminate competition. They’re no longer competition once Microsoft buys them. They’re employees, possibly if a subsidiary, who contribute to Microsoft’s profits.

In a sense, you are hosting the content. You’re retaining a copy (so long as the window is open) and constantly attempting to spread it. It’s literally built on bittorrent protocols if I remember correctly, and it’s already very well established that you can be held responsible for seeding copyright infringing material, so I see no reason at all they’d give you a pass for CP instead. You may not intend to, but remember, my example was someone who looks of age but is not.

Using something like PeerTube is potentially even worse because let’s say you unknowingly open a video where someone in it looks of age but technically isn’t. You as a user help propagate that content while you have it open. You’re not just downloading illegal content at that point. You’re actively sharing it to new people.

Nobody’s throwing a tantrum. They’re just saying they can’t reasonably serve their purpose if they lose 32-bit support. A project so heavily based on other projects is subject to upstream whims, and they probably don’t have the manpower to do anything about it.

I don’t think they’re saying they know better. Seems more like they’re tired of pouring hundreds of hours of free labor specifically into accessibility only to hear people bitch about how they’re not doing enough when the people bitching probably don’t even genuinely care beyond using it as a way to bash GNOME.

To which your response is to take the opportunity to talk shit about GNOME and disregard his meaning, which kinda illustrates his point.

Having learned Nix recently and still not being great at it, writing your personal config is relatively easy. The website has a search feature for options you can use by default, so it’s pretty straightforward. Just search for relevant keywords and set the options you like.

If you want to package software for nixpkgs, define custom options, or anything else that’s going to require custom Nix, it’s… Better than you make it sound but not great. I only read one guide, and it wasn’t great, but it covered the basics well enough. From there, I managed to figure out what I’ve needed so far just from the official documentation for the Nix language. It’s not everything it could be, but it’s not too bad.

If you wanna really get into the thick of it and extensively write Nix for some detailed purpose, you might run into some more problems. I still don’t think it’d be as bad as you make it sound, but you probably won’t be thrilled, either.

And on Switch, it’s forbidden typically. Which is part of why people advocate for the Steam Deck instead. From Nintendo’s perspective, this very much is a vulnerability. It’s just not leading to custom firmware or ROM dumps from what I understand, so it’s not even close to the most significant vulnerability.

To be fair, this isn’t the typical bullshit “look what she was wearing, she wanted it” victim blaming. It’s like watching every single person who walks into a room get punched in the face, then walking in, getting punched in the face, and then being surprised and angry that you got punched in the face. It’s like watching people vote for Trump and then being surprised when they get fucked by his policies that he very blatantly said he would enact.

Is it right that it happened to her? Of course not. Should people have done it to her? Also of course not. Was it extremely, painfully predictable? Yeah, it unfortunately was. It may not be her fault, but… What the fuck did they think was gonna happen? They’d sell porn people actually wanted but nobody would ever ever ever save a copy because they wanted it?
