“I quit!” Even includes a special character

"I, uhh, need your thoughts." should have fewer consequences AND be more secure.

What do you use the Mac Studio for?

I’ve always felt they weren’t really worth it for performance per dollar spent. For C++ work I just use a non-Mac workstation. For lighter workloads the Mac Mini is very capable already.

The Studio (Stud IO™) is the new Mac Pro - it's not "worth it" unless you need the most performance period - or you have money to spare.

Or you really, really need to drive eight displays from a single machine.

For "home user" stuff a Mac mini or MacBook is going to do everything you ever need (in fact, they have the problem where the M1 systems are still perfectly capable, six years later).

Except 120 Hz display I believe, which is big reason for me

The 17 is the first base model iPhone to have a ProMotion display.

The base model has 120hz ProMotion display.

I personally believe what we’re seeing are newcomers who aren’t even programmers who fall for all this crap and then come here to post about it

I personally would have changed it to a round-trip then just returned the car to the other Hertz location and let them figure it out.

If you add multiple IPs to a record, a lot of resolvers will simply use the first one. So even in that case you need a low TTL to shuffle them constantly

Client-server multiplayer games are already kind of a very specialized type of video playback if you squint a bit (you're transmitting entities rather than pixels).

This method of multiplayer you propose is inferior in basically every way: you can't do client-side prediction to make inputs feel smoother, and non-trivial scenes will surely take up more bandwidth than just transmitting entity deltas.

They could get a rough estimate of an IP location using traceroute from many different known locations. Very rough but it’s a starting point.

For some cases, they might just lookup who owns that IP range and put their address as the IP location.

Yes traceroute is something where approximate rough estimate where IP perhaps could be as up to ISP level hosting it, but traceorgute isn't usually allowed pass firewalls and seldom reaches target IP on networks where clients really are.

One possibility is BGP advertised and known information like https://www.cidr-report.org provides could be used. But like I wrote commercial GeoIP data providers are not allowed to use WHOIS information from RIR registries. It's their ToS generally prevent it being collected and resold why MaxMind told me that they don't use it.

Thus the LOC information I had updated RIPE DB in our records LOC or any other information there were not used by MaxMind. Or at least that's what they claim. True or not I don't know, but that's what they tell if you ask from them.

Also apparently they did not use LOC records from the organization domain I maintained DNS LOC records either. And I got no answer why nor what they use as their sources of information. As it's more likely some kind of trade secret of them.

Agreed. I feel that a lookup table can probably map all emojis possible to a uint32 (maybe optimistically uint16, [1] says there's about 4k emojis, does that include skin variations?). And you can add new ones sequentially after so IDs remain stable.

You can just use Proxy to get around toString shenanigans and prevent any detection whatsoever.

Someone mentioned this as well in another comment. Turns out most of this could’ve been done as an extension after all :-)

edit: actually, wouldn’t you still need to override the global you’d like to instrument? At that point, the toString of the modified function would leak your hook.

Regardless, I do have some interesting ideas that should hopefully make my pain of compiling Chromium for 3 hours worth it though :p

Cheat Engine for site scripts? Who knows. Mostly just using this as an opportunity to learn some browser internals so id say it still paid off :)

Your example proxies the console object, the intended way in this case is to make a proxy from the log function itself and use the apply hook

toString will be called on the Proxy and not your hook so it won't reveal anything

D'oh! You are correct :-) Good catch and thanks for teaching me something!

no you cannot since you can throw an exception and your proxy will be leaked leading to a detection.

How are you gonna throw an error inside Array.prototype.push?
