RISC-V for that though, no?

That joke is extremely yesterday

The “20 years later” next to it is perfect

C isn’t too hard if you learn about how memory and pointers work, which seems to be something Rust tries to get away from. So I’m not sure it would make you a better C programmer.

I only have something against the syntax, but nothing against anything else about it, nor is my comment meant as a negative against the language. What I referred to was simply about how that stupid sentence is not a good comment and completely personal opinion. I am sure a lot of programming languages would have gotten the same label at one point in time. And many times they have been superseded by the next big thing.

I think you’re correct except for “having Rust in the Kernel is a bet on the future”. That’s something the techbro’s would say.

I’ve been in a similar situation where some agents from the anti terrorism brigade came to my door. Sometimes you just have to shut up and work with them how they see fit.

Nobody was body-slammed, nobody was disrespected, nobody was being held longer than necessary or with excessive force.

This isn’t a situation to turn into hate towards the police. Just get over it and don’t be a fucking asshole.

Go ahead.

It isn’t black and white. Get over it.

I don’t understand why you’d prefer the possibility of danger over somebody being cuffed for 2 minutes.

The cops didn’t take that away.

The person who swatted him did.

Sure it does. I hate the police and thousands of their stupid rules, but them temporary cuffing you when they are assessing whether or not there is actual danger is just how it goes. If you watch the video, you can see he was only cuffed for 2 minutes.

Germany does try and track these people down and throws them in jail: https://www.vice.com/de/article/erstes-deutsches-swatting-hohe-freiheitsstrafe-fuer-drachenlord-hater/

Even if a streamer is a big target, and the police is aware, they will still go and check it out. It’s an inconvenience for everybody involved, but it’s still the best way to go about it. The only thing that can really be done is to track the people making the calls, or I think in this case an email? Anyways, in Germany you can get jail time for doing this, and they do try and track them down.
