@danirabbit, thank you! Had a similar gut feeling myself, but couldn't trust it as I'm out of my depth here

@jimmac Captain, it’s Wednesday
Seeing that people are worried about OS-level age verification as a slippery slope:
@danirabbit, as an OS developer and vendor, do you expect the onus to be on parents to setup proper parental controls and prevent their kids from re-installing the OS? Or do you think it’s plausible that there would be a push to lock down devices/bootloaders etc to prevent OS modification?
Christine Lemmer-Webber (@[email protected])
A must read thread from @[email protected], particularly for anyone laughing off the "oh they're trying to enforce age verification at an OS level, well I'll just change my open source operating system settings" Y'all, this is the game where we get LOCKED OUT of having ANY real FOSS operating system we control AT ALL The steps have been being put in place for this for over a decade now. And who controls the supply chain? We have to fight this stuff tooth and nail.
@modal Y’all are amazing! And it’s people like you coming together in dark times to solve fundamental problems that gives me hope in humanity! Even while I myself am deeply broken.
Thank you for everything you do!
And together with the announcement of the Earth Rover Program for soil observability — it’s more happy news than I could’ve wished for this Friday!
@existentialcomics So genociding my people by starvation was just ‘realpolitik’?
@alatiera I honestly thought that you knew better than reposting fash apologia. The guy had literally started the WW2 together with Hitler.
Or was there well-hidden irony in that bullet point that I’ve ended up misinterpreting?
@karolherbst It’s DARVO but at the state (or society-wide) level, and it probably works for the same psychological reasons
@david_chisnall @forthy42 LLVM and Apple are actually a perfect counter-example to the argument you are making. It’s impossible to use upstream LLVM to build real world product code written for Apple platforms, because Apple ships its own proprietary fork of Clang in Xcode. Some patches are available on Apple’s github repo, but far from all. And arm64_32 codegen for watchOS is completely private. Meaning you are forced to run your CI on Macs instead of Linux.
Also don’t take Finasteride, especially post-op, even if they try to prescribe it. It’s fucking toxic and has ruined my mental health for years: https://www.pfsfoundation.org/about-pfs-post-finasteride-syndrome/
@alice And the ViewGestureControllerIOS.mm code you’ve shared seems to manually setup a transition animation in ViewGestureController::beginSwipeGesture() using a snapshot view.
@alice I don’t suppose so: simply pushing the next controller upon nav controller’s stack would animate it the same way as clicking on some table view row button for navigation would. So it seems like the animation wouldn’t be tied to the current swipe gesture and wouldn’t be interruptible by it. Maybe there’s is some way to tie it to the current gesture from the recogniser, but I’m out of depth here.
