IIRC all that's been done is a field has been added to store the user date of birth and a protocol that can be used to retrieve said date.

That's it.


Okay, but why do this now? If it’s such an important feature and unrelated to the barrage of legislation, why was this not implemented a few months or years ago?

I would bet the amount of people getting scammed is probably higher than those installing NewPipe.

The difference is that Google doesn’t mind scam apps being on the Play Store.

Because we hear so many stories where the scammer directed their target to install an app so that their scam works

I know a lot more people that install newpipe than people that got scammed by any means, and have never heard of anyone being asked to install an app by a scammer


But I was scammed by newpipe! It said I can watch YouTube, but there aren't any ads! Now I don't know what to buy. It even had CCC Media, so now my videos are informative and insightful. Where's my influencers?!

I wonder how much pressure is coming from OEMs given the MacBook Neo is coming straight for them in the budget laptop range.

I would assume because the Soviet Union had a recognised successor state (being the Russian Federation), where as Yugoslavia did not have a recognised successor state.

The former Yugoslavia had five legally recognized successor states.

Thou hast well said, Yugoslavia has no successor states: For Yugo hast had five successor states; and the domain thou now hast is not thy successor state: in that saidst thou truly.

If I'm not mistaken, and please correct me if I am, the last republic to leave the USSR was Kazakhstan - making that nation the actual USSR successor state. Though the capital was in Moscow, Russia left the USSR while the USSR still existed, and thus is not the USSR successor state.

Legally Russia is the internationally recognized successor state. Russia even paid off the whole Soviet debt, but in exchange inherited all of the USSR's legal privileges (right to have nukes under NPT, right to the spot on the Sec Council, right to observer state in Danube, etc)

Thank you.

> the compositor then composites them together. to me, that feels more like the kernel is at the center of the diagram here: the wayland compositor is between the kernel and the output / input.

It's also possible to use hardware planes to get the actual graphics device to composite for you directly from its video memory, effectively reducing latency to the lowest possible.


Pretty sure Deepins DE uses this model


This has nothing to do with Wayland, only a poor implementation of a display server running a Javascript shell, namely called GNOME.


> If you want that start your processes as different users.

How does this make any difference if they're going to connect to the same IPC that handles input/display?

The display server must absolutely enforce some kind of security boundary between clients. Clients that are running untrusted code (e.g. a web browser) must not be able to hijacked into controlling a potentially privileged client (e.g. a root terminal).


If you reinvented Wayland, there's little reason you would t get the same thing.

The "limitations" are political, not technical.


The instruction set is not the issue, the issue is on ARM there's no standardized way like on x86 to talk to specialized hardware, so drivers must be reimplemented with very little documentation.


That has nothing to do with running VMs.
