thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Is it likely we will see efficient GPU sharing in VMs for gaming setups?
the blocker is nvidia being an arse and not giving vGPU capability to customers (its a paid feature in Tesla cards)

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: What is the general manner to fork a well-known open-source project?

you should fork, implement the change and create a pull request first. Dont assume that they wont implement it. they might do it.

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: WiFi Access Point(s) for Home?
wifi repeaters are the worst you can do...
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Restream.io but for TikTok?
as far as i can tell theres really no way to stream to tiktok seems like they only allow video uploads
thepapanoob··on Show HN: Findpi find raspberry pis on your network faster than NMAP

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: I found opposition when improving the accessibility of the website

thepapanoob··on Keyboard Locker – Cats please don't touch my mac

thepapanoob··on Tell HN: New Discord phishing attempt going around
theres nothing fancy about it. its just a plain ol' copy login page and start phishing with similar looking domain

and the twitter guy makes it sound like its a huge deal...

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Enable a Linux firewall without locking yourself out?
ufw is awesome and really shit at the same time... as long as you just need opened & closed ports its all fine, as soon as you do something with multiple networks (Docker, VM's) you have to fix quite alot manually into iptables directly and make sure it gets readded whenever ufw decides to overwrite iptables.

i can highly recommend to directly use iptables and take a look at the arch linux wiki and especially this site https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Simple_stateful_firewal...

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Why is Android plagued with malware when it's based off Linux?
because most of the times the malware simply uses completly normal and fine to use system api's to do what it wants to do. And for the deployment it simply gets added to cracked apps or just fake apps in general
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Turning Windows into a high-quality development environment
i would argue that Windows is bad for anything but Windows development and gaming.
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Is running a VM windows 10 on a Linux OS (Ubuntu) secure?
also: running any other OS doesnt make it any more secure. in most cases the user is the weakpoint of the system
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Is running a VM windows 10 on a Linux OS (Ubuntu) secure?
noone can answer you if it is "secure" because that highly depends on your perspective and usecase! I would argue that running windows is inherently insecure ;)

but i would also argue that its way more secure than needed for 99% of the users

thepapanoob··on DConf 2019 in London
try D! its a seemingly weird mixture of scripting languages and compiled ones. but ill all makes so much goddamn sense once you try it :)
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: What's the best resources to learn Networking?
look up the CCNA certification! the information you need to pass that sum up a pretty good chunk of networking.

so get yourself your favorite search engine and look up studying material for that ;)

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Is it just me, or is CSS too damn hard?
css is just as hard as you make it! if you follow basic rules: make every component contained in a box wich they cant break out of!

make it lean and use the css operators like > first-child etc.

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: What do you dislike most about Golang?
all the information that gets hidden in plain sight: like the capital first letter indicating if a func / member is public or not

time coding go: to short because this seriously keeps me away from learning it

thepapanoob··on Origins of D Programming Language (WIP) [pdf]
i love the publicity D is getting lately :)
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Why Docker for Mac is so much screwed up?
maybe its because docker is based on LXC (LinuX Containers)?!?!
thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Server-rendered web frameworks with static typing
ok and then what keeps you from just using something like flow or typescript?

chromium literally is the foundation of chrome... wich makes your statement rather wild

thepapanoob··on Ask HN: Think GPS like system but local
it really shows that you didnt even think about it once :D

another huge thing is it will be really hard to get optimized algorithms
