CS2 does not have raw input for keyboard. cl_input_enable_raw_keyboard 1 or 0 do nothing. They are present in deadlock as well. This command might be meant for some other game that Valve might be making. Learn more details from vid in the comments.

I spent the day calculating entropy loss for different sorts of private browsing, and the answer I keep getting is: you always lose. It’s intensely frustrating.

God, privacy sucks. It’s like the universe hates it. It’s so hard to make anything private, and every hard edge of the real world wants to peel privacy away from you. And if the fact that the universe hates privacy wasn’t enough, then you have human beings want it dead.

New phishing tactic: attackers are abusing Google's no-reply addresses to send messages to victims that are from Google infrastructure. They can't control the autoresponse email body, so they put their message in the subject line.

look guys, it's actually pretty simple: on-chain governance is not a solution to a problem, it introduces another _failure mode_. full stop. if governance can approve arbitrary changes to mutable code, you're no longer trusting immutable code, you're trusting governance. no governance is best governance.

comparing the BONK DAO whale voting himself all the treasury to nick.eth doing so for ENS DAO is incredibly unfair the BONK DAO guy actually bought his BONK on the open market for $4M cold hard cash, nick printed his ENS tokens out of thin air. . . making the BONK DAO vote much more legitimate

Is a warrant for the act of collecting information for purposes of an investigation? If I were a cop and I hired a guy to follow you around and note where you're going, when you're going, and what route you take, would you consider that a violation of your 4th amendment rights? What if he doesn't follow you inside, and omly follows you when youre in "public areas" and have "no reasonable expectation of privacy?"

🚨 The Supreme Court ruled that police conduct a Fourth Amendment search when they obtain data through a geofence warrant, holding that people have a reasonable expectation of privacy in their cell phone location data.

A user named Karola3vax built a server-side anti-cheat plugin called Fog of War, which aims to prevent the use of wallhacks and potentially increase FPS by 20-30%. "CS2FOW is not a visual filter. It is server-side visibility culling. If an enemy is fully hidden behind solid map geometry, the server stops sending that enemy data to the player. Sending fewer hidden players can also reduce client and network work. Depending on the map, player count, and hardware, this can provide around 20-30% more FPS."

@girlglock_ @gabefollower No, not in any meaningful way. I tested it in a worst-case 12v12 scenario and the visibility worker averaged around 1ms. It runs on a separate worker thread using baked map data, BVH8, and AVX instead of expensive engine traces, so the main server thread stays free. so its good

@gabefollower We've always been able to do this, and many games do. Valve is making a choice, they are not ignorant.

Mr. President, one Biden-era prosecution is still going forward under your administration: US v. Storm. A jury of 12 already deadlocked on the 2 main counts. DOJ wants a retrial anyway — up to 40 more years in prison for writing open-source software. This precedent threatens every US developer and entrepreneur.
Roman Storm 🇺🇸 🌪️@rstormsf

The gov't theory in my case isn't about me. It's a template. Under US v. Storm, "money transmitting" no longer requires custody or control of funds. Publishing code that others use is enough. Who's in danger: → Every maintainer of open-source privacy, messaging, or crypto tools that any bad actor ever touches → Every operator of a financial service — DeFi or not — who learns some % of users are illicit and keeps operating. Knowledge alone becomes the crime → Every dev of immutable, self-custodial software, held to a duty to "stop" what is technically unstoppable It's already working as designed. Michael Lewellen finished lawful crowdfunding software and can't publish it. He asked DOJ if he'd be prosecuted. Their answer, in federal court: we "cannot disclaim an intent to prosecute." Finished code, sitting on a shelf. You don't need to be charged to be silenced. And SDNY isn't done with me. Prosecutors want to retry me regardless — regardless of the hung counts, regardless of Van Loon, regardless of FinCEN's own guidance. I've been fighting this for 3+ years. Legal defense at this level costs millions, and I can't do it alone. If you write code, use privacy tools, or believe publishing software isn't a crime — this is your fight too. Donate: freeromanstorm.com Every retweet helps. Every dollar goes to the defense.
