That is what modules have been reduced to due to the issues. They can do more, like replace header files, but that requires them to be compatible across...

720p is exactly what HD is.. 1080 is FHD. Also not sure where you get the 720p limit from, as far as I know I get 1080p in Chromium based browsers....

Terrible is a strong phrasing. Worse is a better description. Not bad, is another....

[carewolf]

And modules look muddy with three incompatible implementations, and will likely require at least one more standard iteration before it is can be used...

Amazon limits you to 480p which is unacceptable. Netflix limits you to HD, which is exactly have paid for (I see no reason to pay extra for the 4K content...

If they use the top level security, then it won't work on Windows 7/8 either or on processors older than Intel's Broadwell.

BTRFS will just eat all your data instead of a single file if it hits bitrot in its metadata. Not really an improvement....

[carewolf]

ZFS is among the fastest filesystems, and probably beats XFS is every category. Ext4 is just top dog....

I wonder if the Jaguar changes are new or old stuff they have kept in their fork.

[carewolf]

Legit that uploaded textures are scambled without instructions from or even informing the application? There are extensions now to at least put the entire...

As usual you have no idea what you are talking about. JIT code calls into C++ code all the time, and it does run in a separate process, but only relative...

Considering this is in V8. I would guess JIT. Writing instructions to a piece of memory and then executing that memory....

Mozilla didn't close the bug, the reporter did because the problem went away. And Google only worked around the bug in one specific case with one specific...

[carewolf]

The problem is not that the devices don't have the feature. It is that some devices are crap and buggy....

[carewolf]

Reminds me of too many places highp is used where mediump or lowp would suffice, especially for colors.

[carewolf]

Yeah, unstandardized C++. It was all de-facto and often incompatible between compilers....

[carewolf]

Well, perhaps deprecated with std::array, but I wouldn't care one way or another, in my 30 years of C++ experience I have never seen any bugs caused by...

[carewolf]

Nope, because it isn't available. C++ was a huge thing for 15 years before being ratified in c++98....

[carewolf]

Just upgrade the kernel to C++ already..

[carewolf]

C++20 isn't the latest and greatest. It is still future tech, since the none of big features are yet implemented in a non-experimental way by any compiler....
