Not sure how Japanese law has anything to do with this. I'm pretty sure under US law (the one that ultimately matters for streaming) leaves all the rights of recorded videos of the game with the right holders of the game. That you're allow to record/stream games at all has no legal precedent, it's just a wise business decision by publisher to not forbid it (anymore).

And legality aside. As a dev I wouldn't want racist or bigoted streamers to show my game and make money off of my work. Same with leakers. Sure for a big company I don't care but if someone leaked an indie devs work, we would consider it a dick move as well.

Unless I'm missing something, the post is plain wrong in some parts. You can't POST to a Cross-Site API because the browser will send a CORS preflight first before sending the real request. The only way around that are iirc form submits, for that you need csrf protection.

Also the CORS proxy statement is wrong if I don't misunderstand their point. They don't break security because they are obviously not the cookie domain. They're the proxy domain so the browser will never send cookies to it.

Anyways, don't trust the post or me. Just read https://owasp.org/ for web security advice.

It literally says in the post that his net worth is roughly equal to the median.

Wasn't there always a pay-walled subreddit, made by the community? I think you had to have had gold/premium to get invited.

Unciv is pretty cool, it is Civ 5 but you can play on mobile as well. It was great to have the "One more turn" feel while stuck on a train.

It is literally just Nvidia Encoder. So hardware encoding on Nvidia GPUs. What codes are supported depends on the GPU

Agreed. Even going back to sharing stuff via Whatsapp or something like that, they are going to evade control for sure. But when will society be ready to just be honest with kids about what exists and teach them how to safely explore that and give them context? I guess we'd rather have dystopian control than that

It is also mentioned that the rules could get superseded by EU law requiring identification as well. And with the US doing stupid stuff as well you might run out of VPN locations in the future

In modern languages you can name them with labels as well yes. Not sure about the syntax right now. Something like (?label:...) I think
