While technically true getting very close to failure is only useful if you don't need optimal results and lack the time to do more volume. The damage by going to failure will make high volumes maintained over time impossible.

Ideally you would leave 1-2 possible reps. I think it's important to train to failure to know your body and learn to gauge your reps to failure but other than that and very little time per week to train it's eventually counterproductive.

And if training with lower weights you tend to end very far from failure if just following a program without knowing what you are doing.

Battleeye games get flooded with cheaters no matter what. On most anti cheats is the same anyways. Just see tarkov for a battleeye game with rampant cheaters

How is it an adaptation? My understanding is that the internet era disrupts ADHD people the most.

By definition if you aim to get autonomous that means you aim for zero or at least a very low intervention per mile. Tesla boast about that but doesn't provide.

I agree with you on the "Your story doesn't prove armor saved you?"

But your second argument about him being to blame for the accident... Like sure, you can always be more safe, more alert. But eventually you are gonna make a mistake no matter how much you try not to. And even if you do everything perfectly any number of unexpected things could happen.

"You only got to fuck up once. Be a little slow, be a little late. Just once. And how you ain’t gonna never be slow, never be late? You can’t plan for no shit like this, man. It’s life."

I dont think you need to do the forum posts but you need to request unlocking every two days and pray it works. Supposedly at 00:00 chinese local time for any chances of getting permission. Took me several months of trying non continuously.

Forking a process is not free and starting one every hundred of a millisecond* seems very expensive. *I'm do not know which frequency it updates the data but it's usually 1 sec to 0.1 sec.

Valve's approach was to avoid the cat and mouse game knowing it doesn't lead anywhere. You can always cheat using DMA or reading the monitor with another computer that simulates a hardware mouse to get aimbot abilities. They wanted a machine learning to detect, flag and ban suspicious behaviour. This didn't work out and I'm not sure they are still trying but there's a few conferences talking about it.

In Switzerland and probably most or all EU countries. For example, in Spain, the schools need a signed form allowing each student's picture to be published.

The issue of money gatekeeping legal rights is another issue entirely which should be addressed for everything, not just this specific problem. It's also, in my opinion, a lot more prevalent in the US than the rest of the first world countries.

And often it doesn't even work.

He explicitly states that examples are not the point of the post by I wonder the specifics of this interaction.

"Even the trigger for this post is an issue from an extremely belligerent user (who I do sympathise with), who was quickly supplanted by someone else who has been extremely courteous in the face of what is definitely a frustrating experience."

It's been a long time coming. I wonder if the overhead of user space interacting with the kernel api is gonna be noticeable.

>Another big area of Windows that uses kernel-level drivers is anti-cheating engines for games. Microsoft has been speaking with game developers about how to reduce the amount of kernel usage, but it’s a more complicated use case as cheaters often have to purposefully tamper with their machine to disable protections and get cheating engines running.

>“A lot of [game developers] would love to not have to maintain kernel stuff, and they are very interested in how they do that,” Weston says. “We’ve been talking about the requirements there, and I think we’ll have more to say on that in the near future.” Riot Games told me last year that it’s willing to follow potential Windows security changes and “recede from the kernel space.”

I hope it spreads to anti cheats as well.

My family usually had paracetamol so I went till my early 20s without getting anything for pain or colds as it didn't do anything to me and it felt pointless. I mostly get headaches so discovering Ibuprofen was a life changer. I got a toothache that ibuprofen did nothing against so I tried paracetamol again, still no effects.

To be you should compare the windows version on windows, no proton against the Linux version. DXVK, which proton uses, makes some games run better in windows than "native".

I don't follow everything but they give flak to AMD too, maybe in a different way.
