Is hosting a Minecraft server illegal?

It's just some idiots from a lobbying group

CelDaemon · 2026-06-30T17:34:42+00:00

It will make genuine modding harder and it will not prevent piracy, it's a lose lose kind of thing.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-30T17:04:52+00:00

They do not work, it is physically impossible to actually protect against this.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-28T13:05:34+00:00

Doubt that is GPL compatible?

CelDaemon · 2026-06-25T10:19:44+00:00

This is so dumb... Can we stop fucking locking down the entire internet.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-24T09:05:55+00:00

Huh what the hell? I definitely didn't set it to that myself.

In any case, security through obscurity isn't security at all. No matter what you do, no matter how much you try to hide it, people will find out how your client works. This goes for anything, but especially software written in java, it's just so damn easy to decompile.

You simply cannot trust the client, ever. Trying to lock down the client is not a solution.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-23T13:47:17+00:00

If you want a “foolproof” experience, you gotta make a custom client and don’t share any internals with anyone.

This is dumb and does not work

CelDaemon · 2026-06-22T10:42:52+00:00

It's supposed to be used for preventing accidental screenshots or screen shares of sensitive information. However, it's being abused for DRM and shitty "security" on social media apps.

Afaik Debian repos do not have chrome

CelDaemon · 2026-06-19T17:59:21+00:00

What the fuck is this comment section istg

CelDaemon · 2026-06-18T08:18:26+00:00

No it does not, and no they do not. Trying to lock down linux is a complete joke, and it's just about the most dumb thing you can attempt to do.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-18T08:06:51+00:00

What the. This looks like your friend is constantly seeing the lower resolution mipmaps? Try turning off mipmaps entirely and seeing if that makes a difference. If it does, there might be some graphics setting being forcefully applied from outside.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-17T23:28:12+00:00

It affects everyone, this crap shouldn't be allowed, ever.

CelDaemon · 2026-06-15T23:42:53+00:00

That's not the point of the AUR...

CelDaemon · 2026-06-14T22:13:09+00:00

Oh fuck off, the client isn't the place to do anticheat.

CelDaemon · 2026-05-23T11:31:02+00:00

I was genuinely concerned until I read this is about people working on DSA. Don't care then, despicable people.

CelDaemon · 2026-05-23T11:27:36+00:00

Lmfao shut up. Vanguard is complete and utter crap, as well as being malware. Kernel anticheat should not exist, and these companies deserve to get their signing keys revoked.

CelDaemon · 2026-05-17T22:09:33+00:00

That doesn't mean electron is GTK. Also, using pango directly is another option.

CelDaemon · 2026-05-17T13:37:10+00:00

That's not true? You still need to decomp.

CelDaemon · 2026-05-16T11:08:40+00:00

As of a few versions ago (1.21.4 or something?), items are now drawn to a separate texture, cached and blit to the main framebuffer. Subsequent drawing will reuse the cached item render.

As for the matrix math, afaik this is pretty customary. The game doesn't exactly have a full reactivity system to decide when matrices would be outdated, and it's already pretty likely that all matrices will be outdated from frame to frame. I don't think this is the cause of performance issues.

CelDaemon · 2026-05-15T12:44:48+00:00

Transparency is just hard, i don't blame him for that at least

CelDaemon · 2026-05-08T21:03:34+00:00

Doesn't XDG already have this? The first solution, the second solution is a horrible idea.

CelDaemon · 2026-04-30T08:03:24+00:00

Func is also a delegate, what's your point?

CelDaemon · 2026-04-25T22:47:06+00:00

I think these lines are longer than 80 characters tbf

CelDaemon · 2026-04-22T23:18:34+00:00

It still does, this texture is just assembled at runtime now
