Re:Why can DRM crash some games on 12th gen Intel core processors?

The DRM doesn’t provide any benefit… to you. It does benefit the developers and publishers.
Often you can find out what (if any) DRM is used before you purchase. Check out GOG.com if you want to avoid DRM entirely.

I have encountered the same attitude in a very small project I took over maintenance of.
There can be a degree of entitlement in users, I think even more so if they don’t know _how_ they can help.
Many of us have been under the gun to fix problems in software we haven’t written, and working through that can be challenging and frustrating.
It blows my mind that Richard both provided a fix and also caused the reporter to re-evaluate how he was communicating.

I believe the license for the VScode C# plug-in prohibits using it with VScodium.
I didn’t know this until recently when someone pointed it out.

Thought it was relevant since OP is talking about a Linux IDE for C#

VS code is not really that “open” either.
The on-by-default telemetry and license restrictions come to mind

I hope this is not in poor taste, but I find it pretty relevant to the discussion (and hilarious)

Would you also consider Google search a recipe for stalking? It provides a larger set of results, but you can easily narrow down your results to social media sites...
It’s a tool, much like a knife is a tool. They can be used for good or bad. The tool is indifferent.
