  1. Comparing abortion to wars seems a bit insidious to me...so basically a fetus (undeveloped human) vs. fully grown, fully aware of the situation human going to the slaughter, returning with a PTSD if he makes it. You won't convince me that the turn of events in the U.S. was a step forward. https://vanderbilthustler.com/2022/06/24/tadross-abortion-is-more-than-a-debate-over-murder/ At the end of the day, every cradle is the grave. Life kills life, humans just happen to be more creative in that department. The game is rigged, there's no winner in this meat grinder.
  2. You can find some videos on YouTube on what to expect from Intel HD 4000.
  3. Yeah, the point of it is to pick address on its own, calculating it from the DLL file name hash. Edit: actually, the starting address can be specified in the INI file, then the actual address will usually be somewhere above that address, depending on the name. I'm not sure, maybe with certain name it would end up at the same spot as starting address. Both LiBase and ReBase support rebasing multiple DLLs at once, so then multiple DLLs would end up somewhere above specified address - ReBase puts first DLL at the specified starting address and the rest of DLLs after the first DLL one after another, LiBase should guarantee they end up above that address and separated between each other at least as much specified in the INI, the default setting of 1 MB is definitely not guaranteeed to work correctly with larger DLLs ( > 1 MB). If you didn't get INI file in downloaded ZIP of LiBase, you can re-download, I've re-uploaded it sometime after initial upload. Though it's possible to figure out what options are read from the INI by reading the source code.
  4. Do I deal with it? If you can call it "dealing with it", I try to comfort my mind with this thought: Funny thing, I only watched The Matrix in recent times, well, about 3,5 years ago actually. Either way, I don't think you're alone. Are you thinking about past friendships and how they've ended? If something lacked on both sides or just one side? I read that as 44,415,533 unwanted people spared from the burden of existence. Things are rough as they are and being a resented child is not good for either party. That said, I think it's better to prevent the situation that makes the abortion the only remaining option.
  5. There's a decent possibility that cloning Win10/11 with Robocopy won't produce the exact copy, see: Maybe it'll boot, at least after making sure BCD is in order, but there could be broken parts, at least in UWP land and possibly other places if they're using new NTFS specifics unless they updated Robocopy to be aware of them by now.
  6. You have more control with ReBase. Seems MinGW's linker uses hash of DLL name by default, similarly to LiBase, at least according to this, though I didn't bother to dig into the source code, which I'd have to find first. Was software as complex as modern web browser a thing in the old days?
  7. I don't do anything special on these occasions TBH. It passes so fast and I believe we all deserve to be a bit lazy from time to time. And no company IRL to do fun stuff with either. While I don't have any apprehensions about leaving the house, at least not for going for a walk, I do gravitate towards staying home in general. I'm not sure what I'd say to someone who struggles to leave the house, honestly. Did read a lot of other people's venting in the past, some struggle to even leave the bed. Yeah, but I mean, what if you don't feel like participating in this freakshow? Heh, those pills had the warning that they may cause suicidal thoughts, which did cross my mind then. "Deaden", right, that was the word I was looking for. Felt nothing and that was more messed up for me than feeling something. When you think about, pharmacy is just another business. And psychiatrist are in place to put you back on the predetermined track if you wander off to keep this system going. Some say pills helped them, but really, they aren't for me. This quote is fitting: I hear ya. But unless we live off-grid in the woods, we're still bound to it one way or another. Going with the flow indeed, it's the only certain thing for me. Ugh, wanted to add something here, but can't figure out how to put it together. Thanks, not sure about strong, but at least health is holding up...for now. Plus George had charisma. I'll try. Well who knows how things would have turned out then. Just a way of expressing myself, personifying depression to make situation sound less gloomy. It's a "she" in Slovenian.
  8. I'm on leave this week, so more relaxed at least. Depression is an old friend of mine, when everyone else is gone, she's still there. I've got dragged to the doctor once, they must have thought my relationship with her got unhealthy. It was weird, the only question I remember being asked by my personal physician is if I have a girlfriend. I've got pills and got referred to a psychiatrist. I only went there once, we were just talking a bit. I asked what's the point of trying to achieve anything since none of it matter when you die. His answer was simply that it matters while you're here. I don't remember anything else from that session. I only took few of those pills (Lexapro - Escitalopram) and oh boy...never again! I don't know how to put it, but it's like they drained me of my essence. Just felt completely empty, so stopped taking them. It was a time when I had no idea how to go on. Finish school or seek employment...both mission impossible. The latter somehow proved possible. Seemingly had more luck than brains, but since then, I guess I am what they call "functional member of society". Kinda lame overall, but I'm sailing through it. With a bit of a mindless, repetitive, passive fun thrown in-between. I imagine I'd be even more lost then than I am now.
  9. We do have actual gaming sub-forum here, would fit well there.
  10. If I ever drink anything alcoholic these days, it's a small glass of white wine per year, only for new year time really. I was told in the past in one social setting I should drink a bit to ease up, apparently I appear real tense in those. That time I just said I'm not much for alcohol. There was one other time before that when I did opt to drink some beer with the guys I was with at some bar, all it did was it gave me a headache and sent me to the toilet sooner.
  11. I remember this being discussed in the past and author of Aero Glass fixing it some time after I pointed out how severe the artifacts came across Remote Desktop session. That was already in Win10 era when no more development was done for Win8.1. Another forum member said he was not getting any artifacts in AG version 1.4.5, but I think it was a coincidence due to other factors, not that that version did it right.
  12. I remember the old Sony Ericsson before the smartphone era, which had a color screen, simple camera, J2ME applications, you could browse the web with Opera Mini. I was mainly interested in non-phone functions on these things to be able to read stuff online someplace else than sitting on the chair behind the computer, eg. lying on a couch or in bed. These days I wonder how I managed with that small screen. I'm not sure what I'd get these days if I was buying a smartphone, the software in mainstream ones seems obnoxious, data / Wi-Fi turning on on its own, background updates, the physical size... May look into alternative brands again at some point. I'm not interested in expensive ones and got good value out of current Xperia E3, which will be 9 years old this year. I regret being clumsy and dropping it too many times, I got it taped at 4 spots. The next drop may be fatal, I already almost lost the speaker last year and the upper side with headphone jack is a bit loose. Lucky the screen wasn't damaged. Steam Deck...the heck is Valve up to these days? We're getting everything but the closure after the cliffhanger at the end of Half-Life 2: Episode Two. Way too warm for this time. It's a bit colder here, but still warm and some people still dress like it's 0 degrees Celsius.
  13. I'll just say may the new year be less crappy than the previous one! I was also told at some point "Fake it 'till you make it.". Sounds cringe at this point, doesn't it? Sorry for the sadness. At such times, I try to remind myself that this too shall pass. I've been sober all my life, can you imagine?
  14. It's not technically corrupt (well it could be said from the older version perspective), sometimes you just have to move/migrate things around, rewrite some data to improve something and the old version obviously doesn't understand these changes. It's a one-way thing and the only guaranteed way back is with a backup. This is actually tweakable. There are registry settings specifying how exactly should the associated program be invoked, so you can put whatever arguments you need there. Does shell->open->command ring any bells?
  15. Note that multi-process prevents operation of certain extensions. I don't know what kind of stability issues people have, but at least my experience with official 32-bit Pale Moon on Windows 10, it may hang permanently after consuming certain amount of RAM, presumably due to memory leaks and fragmentation. On 64-bit OS at least, hanging due to leaks shouldn't occur with 64-bit browser due to much larger address space. At least it never happened on my work laptop where I got more RAM to spare and just run 64-bit build.
  16. The personal perspectives will differ. I'm not prone to optimism bias. Either way, 1h into new year here. It's peaceful again, the banging has stopped.
  17. I didn't choose to have to deal with this crap. My remaining parent got ill for over the week from the shock after receiving the letter from the lawyer from the "other side". Imagine the dread of taking care of someone that was completely helpless, then that person dying and then receiving such letter. This is not how grieving process should like and it's not something I can ignore, it fell upon me to do something. I didn't choose to come into the world ruled by greed and corruption (or being born in general). But here I am and quitting ain't easy. So I improvise. Day by day. I try to forget about this thing, but got reminded with a recent mail from our lawyer letting us know what "they" were snooping at.
  18. One of my parents passed away this year and that person's death opened a whole can of worms. That person had another kid with another person long time ago and that kid is a real piece of work. The kid went crying to the lawyer and attacked us about heritage, despite already getting a very valuable possession long ago from the deceased parent. On top of that, the kid didn't give the damn about the sick parent, whose sickness eventually lead to demise and who couldn't take take care of oneself on its own in the last months of their life. So it's gonna cut into savings, it already has, lawyers are expensive, but will try to salvage as much as possible. I'm not too hopeful as the laws in this stinkhole are retarded. Who cares if you were actually there for the person, but someone who didn't lift the finger can get money just like that. And we're talking of someone driven by nothing but greed. We didn't really have any connections with those people, my parent split with that person and started again. I could tell from once in a bluemoon visits from the "other side" they can wipe their asses with money. My parents were a strange couple TBH. The deceased one considered it all agreed upon (regarding that s*** that's happening now). But they didn't think of such possibility.
  19. So much noise from new year celebrations, ugh. What is there to celebrate anyway? Every year is worse than the previous one. Not looking forward to 2023.
  20. It has to support rebasing due to Windows executable design, which is not position-independent. ASLR on Vista+ is just implemented in a way that when the DLL is first used (same should apply for EXEs), it will reuse the same random address in subsequent processes. Though looking at my Win10, this doesn't always seem to be the case, choosing two processes for comparison, one native executable and one .NET executable, the .NET one had differing addresses in two instances of the process. DLLs had to have relocation tables in any case due to possibility of conflicts, old EXEs did not have them, they're always first inside the address, but since ASLR is the thing, EXEs have the relocation table well so they can be relocated freely inside address space by the ASLR feature. Edit: Perhaps .NET executables/images are different, but native .NET images might behave the same as normal native images, not sure.
  21. Well, I meant that the OS will rebase in memory/pagefile when it's loaded if there's a conflict, that causing BSODs is really strange. I tried WiseVector StopX really quick in a VM, couldn't install in that old messy XP x86 SP3 VM, the installer crashed, but I could load it on XP x64. Seems to put quite a strain on the CPU when Chrome does something, though I couldn't crash the system. Maybe I'll try again at some point with fresh XP SP3.
  22. Are you sure? Mozilla based browsers, which you use as well, have a bunch of DLLs with preferred base address 0x10000000. BSODs come from something going wrong in kernel space, although whether something in user space triggered that something is another question. Kinda doubt runtime rebasing is the main culprit, perhaps it just exposes a bigger problem.
  23. Off-topic, but you can actually use Dropbox to share these things (rhetoric question)? I used to share something using it, but after some time, my link errored that the account's public links are generating too much traffic. I wonder if the limits these days are the same than they were few years back. On-topic, is there a changelog for official builds? What's the difference between 1030 and 2022 and why would one be slower than the other, both being Chrome 86?
  24. Interesting piece of malware: Report on VirusTotal This guy ran it under built-in Administrator account. I tried it in a virtual machine in XP under the restricted user account in Users group, it failed to do much, it errored out that it's corrupted. Buggy virus!
