I missed this story directly elsewhere, only saw this story from the Preston Stewart interview that OP has linked.

Ubiquiti could likely do more to keep their equipment out of Russia, but I also guess that Hunterbrook is doing this to manipulate some stock or for other selfish purposes.
Nexxxeh · 12 days ago
Hunterbrook exposed that the distribution network for an American company, Ubiquti (allegedly), knowingly supplied Russia after the start of the Ukrainian war. Doing so in clear breach of sanctions.

US gear being used to facilitate attacks on Ukrainian civilians and military.

To say "Ubiquiti could likely do more..." is a massive understatement.

Is it not more "VST author just does the bare minimum to keep honest people honest, because more invasive DRM risks ruining a live performance"? I'm not understanding why TFA author has such an attitude about this. Is the VST author a horrible person or running a toxic business model or something?

I wonder how much further back he can take it. NT4 and NT3.51 would be really cool to see supported.

Omores did a video on it with NT 4.0, and the description says it does also work with NT 3.5. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gvT9-ZfW1Iw

For those of us who like seeing old OSs running on old bare metal to a daft extent, a YouTuber "Omores" is worth a look:

He has videos on this driver running on NT and 2000.

I can only speak for the UK but for quite a while now, McD's has become an uninviting experience, with miserable staff, menu screens that visibly tell you to hurry the f*k up and choose the product. Not to mention customers vying with delivery drivers for orders. I think the problem applies to all-income customers.

I'm in the UK and have McDonalds semi-regularly. A few times a month at least. Get a receipt, fill out the online feedback form, get a code. Put the code in the app, get an offer for £2.99 sandwhich (McPlant, Big Mac, whatever the chicken thing is) and either fries or a salad. £2.99 for a McPlant and fries at 3am is a godsend.

Seeing pictures of Cardiff McD's afterhours with disheveled, boorish patrons and rubbish strewn about, no-one would want to patronize them: https://hollyhughesgraphics.wordpress.com/2014/02/07/maciej-...

There's at least two in the Cardiff City Centre, one on St Mary St and one on Queen St.

Having used both at normal and at peak pisshead hours, they're both alright.

Not great, not a disaster. Slightly understaffed, and occasionally short on English language skills, but there's not an issue if you want hot food (inc vegetarian and vegan) or drinks at a daft hour.

My sincerest apologies to Eben. I don't know how I flubbed that, as I opened another tab and searched for him so I knew I'd get the spelling of his surname right. A fellow Welshman and everything! I am suitably embarrassed.

He shares the title of "SBC Guy" with ExplainingComputers. Any time a new single-board computer comes out, especially a Raspberry Pi, they make videos with benchmarks etc. etc.

I took too long to write my comment, you beat me to the punch. I didn't plagiarise your comment, but I do largely agree!
