Re:Oodle 2.9.14 and Intel 13th/14th gen CPUs on Tuesday June 10, 2025 @09:44PM (#44243422)
There’s a hardware problem affecting Intel 13th/14th gen CPUs, mostly desktop ones. This made the rounds through the press last year and has been on forums etc. for much longer than that. For months, we thought this was a rare bug in the decoder, but from stats in Epic’s crash reports for Fortnite (as well as stats for other Unreal Engine and Oodle licensees) it was fairly striking that this issue really seemed to affect only some CPUs.

China: Bans international apps, makes citizens use their own apps. India: trend against Chinese apps China: We gonna retaliate.

China sounds like kinder-gardener.

Ask HN: Where to report about software taking pictures without permission?

I'm a minor and I stumbled upon the following site due to my friend's brother taking their course. Now the thing is, they make you download encrypted video and give their own player, which is shady with its conditions (Like only laptops are allowed, yada yada) and I decided to have a go at it.Main URL: https://www.swapnilpatni.com/index.phpSimple disassembly with dnSpy, am left me with their...
