@giohvahnni @crvmblr Yes, we can see you have nothing of substance to say.

so riot is just doing illegal shit now, cool

Game: Valorant AC: Vanguard (VGK) Today’s Vanguard anti-cheat update blocked the majority of DMA firmwares using SATA/NVMe. VGK suddenly triggered an IOMMU restart warning in-game, after which the DMA firmware becomes completely unusable, even without the game running or after uninstalling Vanguard. Only fix is a full OS reinstall. It’s using IOMMU to create read blocks, which permanently breaks the majority of almost all SATA/NVMe firmwares once triggered. Even the advanced H2-board got affected. Confirmed Firmware Block wave by @ItsGamerDoc

@RengeKurusu @TextyHFJO @th1ghs4hvh @crvmblr I'd suggest reading a little more on how the system works before continuing - It doesn't tell windows anything as it is a Kernel level interaction using ring 0, not at the extrapolation layer
English

@Groggles1989 @TextyHFJO @th1ghs4hvh @crvmblr It doesnt corrupt anything, the dma device may corrupt itself but all the anticheat does is tell windows theres a problem with said device stop communicating with it
English

@giohvahnni @crvmblr You have no idea what DMA means and it shows - The entire Direct Storage API is a DMA and windows has about a dozen DMAs for accelerating drive transfers and regularly impliments more
English

@Krzys_OffCourse @Helijs19 @crvmblr You realise that DMA just means Direct Memory access - and that it is the core of the entire DirectStorage API, as well as dozens of DMA used for things like capture cards or even PCI-E external drives
English

@DragonSireMods @crvmblr You realize the Entire DirectStorage API is a DMA pipe right? As are most instruction sets that enable file transfers
English

@crvmblr oh no they stopped me from using illegal things..I must complain.
English

@RengeKurusu @TextyHFJO @th1ghs4hvh @crvmblr By Trips a windows security measure you mean inserts a corrupt memory call
And this is before pointing out there are many non-cheating ways to use DMA - Hell the entire DirectStorage API is a DMA pipe as are many USB transfer drivers
English

@TextyHFJO @th1ghs4hvh @crvmblr Hardware* the anticheat doesnt “brick” anything from a software flag. When it detects a dma device it trips a windows security measure to bootloop and block the dma device (which can cause the dma to brick itself but the anticheat itself isnt actually bricking anything)
English

@vusjibin @crvmblr Other than the fact that the software in question has been shown to generate false positives from EUFI firmware versions that are older than it recognises and from simply miscomminng with a TPM chip.
Not to mention people who dabble in coding can be flagged for memory registers

@realsaadasad @TakeThatNurses While its true the stair themselves dont really catch fire they do become heat flumes
The purpose of the 2 is so that while 1 may become a blast furnace the other can largely be used to evac
English

@TakeThatNurses Stairwells don't really catch fire. There's no ignition source. But if one is blocked, there is another protected by fire-rated walls.
To be clear, this is for slim buildings. You architecturally/financially could not fit two stairwell cores in the same building.

@Rafiwafa2 @TRobinsonNewEra The same thing as for them - That removal of the death penalty for indesputable crimes against humanity is a mistake
English

@morris_david @Awesomevideos07 Those who know how to fix problems are also the most capable of making them if needed
English

@Awesomevideos07 Experience is just chaos with better aim. 😂

@angelstepsvr Damn thats crazy - missing this surprise event they fired up

@CPTTANKERJOEv2 @wrapplemnky WD-40 is now the holding company name, the Product WD-40 is a different thing

@XayStationTV @KourraVT I can guarentee that 2 tabs does infact count
What makes them not count is the fact that twitch aggressively checks for if the tab is forground or not - As it uses this to immediately downscale bitrate
If you have 2 side by side tabs its fine
English

@KourraVT It ain't the IP address.... several ppl have been over here on this same internet with their own phones under their own username and have joined the stream before. They all counted including my dashboard on the laptop.
What don't count is 1 account.... >2 tabs!
English

Twitch doesn't count viewers with more than ~3 streams open per IP ADDRESS (whole buildings in some cases).
Twitch doesn't count veiwers if there is a break in connection and they aren't watching the stream live anymore, even if just seconds behind.
Seems like Sabotage to me...
Stevie Blunder@StevieBlunder__
Got an apparently hot take: Twitch isn't sabotaging your view count. In fact, nobody is. Video below 🔽⏬⬇️⤵️⏬🔽⬇️⤵️

@MayorsKCorp @Abortius It infact doesn't fall under fair use - This is exactly why NVidia is in court as they have lost that argument
Fair use is not a catch all and is argued only on a case by case basis - and is heavily weighed against if it reduces the percieved market for the original works
English

@Ryou_Sensei @Abortius Because AI art is trained in the exact same way as Artists get chewed out and occasionally sued for - Namely Tracework
English

@Abortius 1) Im not gonna lie, that argument about AI art stealing is the dumbest shit ive ever heard, cuz what's the diffetence between an AI doing it, and a person seeing either official character art or a person's fan art, abd using those as references for their own? AI Art is literally

@YF23MYBELOVED @Its_Kiyoomi The issue was far larger than the Me262 could have possibly resolved - and throwing all in on the early jet engines would have lead to more shortages rather than less due to how they ate their own enginges in less that a dozen flights
English

@Its_Kiyoomi Talking about German WW2 planes, i still believe the ME-262 had too much potential, but it was wasted due to mr black square under-nose said "it should be a light bomber cuz i said so🧠", no wonder they lost if they had such an incompetent guy in charge right?
