Even if it is, Russia is ultimately responsible.

That’s easier said than done, but you aren’t wrong. EUV is a huge lead, and not something to underestimate. At the same time, you can’t underestimate China’s persistence. It’s not an insurmountable obstacle, but it will take time.

In the short term, they are perfectly cable of brute forcing lots of problems with “old” lithography.

What’s an example of a defensive weapon that can’t be used offensively?

I can’t vote using private relay 🫤. Bluetooth headphones have come a long way, and I’m not constantly buying replacement wired earbuds when I lose them or the wires fray. Granted, I don’t think I qualify as an audiophile.

What makes a weapon solely offensive?

Just as an FYI - the article was removed from the cross-posted source for not meeting quality standards.

What counts as an “offensive weapon”? Are nuclear weapons ok since they’re defensive? To me, this reads like they want the US out. I don’t blame them, but the reasoning in the article is shaky at best.

I know you are trolling, but Ukrainians were minding their own business before Putin stuck his nose where it didn't belong. Putin has the sole power to end this by pulling his troops back inside Russia's borders. Ukraine will stop overnight if he did that.

Ask yourself many Russians have died for nothing in this conflict? How many more will have to die before they get sent back to their borders? As a NATO citizen, I am very, very happy to keep spending tax dollars to prevent Putin from killing innocent people.

Russia is going to lose this conflict either way. It's just a matter of how bad their economy gets hurt and how many have to die for one man's ego. Ukrainians have everything to lose, Russians have nothing to lose.

This reads like a FUD piece. Every decision Ukraine is making is a last resort to protect their lives. Some DU contamination obviously outweighs losing their country, lives, and culture. They are fighting for everything.

Element is OSS! Open some tickets, write some code, and help them out!

There's no reason it can't feel more "fun."

There was another comment pointing this out, but a lot of time there is VM detection code built into this kind of software.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 10 months ago (1 children)

I definitely agree. A lot of that software is vulnerable by design, and a throwaway or university laptop is the way to go. It just helps remove friction points and let you focus on the work.

This doesn’t answer your question, but I do have experience with applications like these. They are typically hastily coded to satisfy some arcane requirements, and give little thought to supporting non-mainstream setups. If you need SEB for something important, it may be worth trying to acquire a cheap windows laptop.

I always run into weird edge cases even if I can get software like that running, which often can be pretty detrimental.

Feel free to correct me if I’m wrong, but I ran into this over and over with university and corporate software. I think the best course of action would be to write your controlling entity and let them know what’s going on (also maybe they’d give you a loaner computer).

Is there a good way to share video files with only access to a static file store?

I don't want to run a transcoding server (transcoding on upload is fine), and want to keep it simple.

Thanks!

edit: I'm mostly looking to allow people to view the file in the browser rather than download, so some kind of adaptive bitrate solution would be ideal. I posted a comment below, but MPEG-DASH/dash.js looks like it might fit the bill.
