    @dalias @hayley @swordgeek @theearthisapringle @alwayscurious Failed to open tbb for the webUI to edit fast enough then...

    I also meant to add that JS JIT also discards a *lot* of checks in compiling. This is again something it should do to a much lesser degree if at all.

    Basically JS JIT seems to have to goal of turning dynamic interpreted code in to static native code. That's the wrong approach.

    @dalias @swordgeek @theearthisapringle @alwayscurious The latter has been done better by Self among other languages.

    There are ways to structure it, but most importantly JS JIT usually discards type info instead of keeping it in the native dynamic code, because otherwise the performance wins are more marginal. That's the wrong thing to do. It's a dynamic language, it should act like it.

    @hayley would be able to give more concrete and relevant examples.

    @dalias @theearthisapringle @swordgeek @alwayscurious I've been disabling the JIT for a while now.

    Even Microsoft's browser research team published an article on how little returns the JIT gives vs security improvement in the majority of use-cases: https://microsoftedge.github.io/edgevr/posts/Super-Duper-Secure-Mode/

    It's not because it's impossible to do JIT safely/properly, it's *purely* because JS engines prioritize speed over correctness & security everytime.

    Any data is critical until the user tells you that it is not.

    You as the programmer do not get to decide that.

    @blenderdumbass > In a way, it seems like the corporations are literally defeating us. They made it so hard for us to fight their nonsense, so hard to reverse engineer their hardware, that most of us gave up. Sitting on 15 - 20 year old machines and pretending to be okay with it. (https://blenderdumbass.org/articles/the_incels_of_computing:_the_depressive_defense_mechanisms_of_free_software)

    I think the role that the DMCA and similar bad laws have had in this matter should not be underestimated (https://pluralistic.net/tag/dmca/).

    Requiring blackbox reverse-engineering to avoid legal trouble (such as technical felony acts) is *not* a reasonable hurdle and it's why it is so hard to reach feature parity with things that are readily available on Windows.

    If those laws were abolished, a lot of things would suddenly become *much* easier to reverse-engineer, because one wouldn't have to shy away from simply decompiling proprietary software to liberate it.

      The Incels of Computing: The Depressive Defense Mechanisms of Free Software
      from Blender Dumbass
      With all the progress that has been done with liberating the digital space there is a sense of self defeating, depression. A kind of defense mechanism of sorts. As if the people settled for something and gave up trying to do anything else. Which in itself causing lack of morale, lack of vision, and with it lack of actual movement.

    I kind of hate when people post comments assuming domain-specific knowledge from laymen such as "the fact people need to be told this is a little troubling to say the least".

    It shows those people have not tried to even see how hard bootstrapping the knowledge they're assuming of others actually is, especially now that search engines have enshittified into uselessness and the hardware their comment pertains to no longer comes with useful manuals for their operation.

    In a lot of cases, the knowledge also pertains to hacks for patching over design flaws & botched work that should've been done properly to start with (which would make said knowledge entirely obsolete as anything other than a curiosity).

    It reeks of unacknowledged #privilege (and a heaping of normalization of deviance).

    @Suiseiseki It's possible through reverse-proxy and VPN setups to ruin outwardly visible uptime of a service via DNS failure. The server itself may become unable to resolve the VPN it needs to maintain service uptime.

    @novenary @wolf480pl @mikoto > after all artificial market segmentation for electronics is a scam to charge you more for hardware that barely costs more to produce, there is no reason to sell crippled CPUs and machines with less than the maximum supported amount of memory

    Agreed.

    > for repair, I don't really see anything wrong with leaving that up to specialists

    Those specialists cost a fortune (often enough to make buying a new machine more palatable) when they're available at all (which they aren't here, I'd need to commute for a long time or ship the machine at considerable expense). It is also concerning that so much stateful hardware (but hard to reflash by users) remains on a machine, such that if the repair specialist is malicious, they can get up to shenanigans nearly undetectably.

    > the sad reality is that capitalism will not do the right thing here anyway, and in most cases perfectly repairable machines end up in the landfill/junkyard regardless of user serviceability for a whole host of reasons, including user miseducation and obsolescence, or insurance writing off vehicles way too liberally

    That is unfortunately true.

    @novenary @wolf480pl @mikoto That would be okay if they also sold the microsoldering kit alongside the computer, since it's going to be necessary to upgrade it at all.

    Because of course they designed that to be upgradable, right? They didn't just commit to generating e-waste unnecessarily, right?

    Just as importantly as upgrades though, soldered-on RAM /cannot be replaced easily/ which is a major problem if any of it goes bad. Especially if it's not ECC memory.

    @dalias You're saying that email shouldn't notify failed delivery at the transport level?

    I'd certainly find it pretty helpful to get error emails back when I fail to get any answer from some representative or business for days or weeks. Are they just incompetent or ignoring me, or did they actually never receive it?

    @dalias I meant more that it should be trivial to detect when the sender identity is forged and just not send the bounce.
