It Feels Almost Like Android... But It Isn't
So what is it?
I'd return a non-zero value so they know it's their fault ^^
In my personal opinion: Yes. Wine is great and all, but in the end it's an emulation layer that - in the worst case - requires a lot of tweaking. I personally wouldn't want to spend that time so a VM sounds like a good option. But again, depending on the context (e.g. limited hardware resources or the amount of time available) you might be totally fine with Wine.
That makes sense, thanks again! I think dynamic dispatch is not as much of a performance issue in my case, yet you're totally right not to waste resources that aren't actually needed. Keeping things on the stack if possible is also a good thing.
I'll definitely need to read more about Rusts type system but your explanation was already very helpful! I think this might be why my initial approach felt unnatural - it works but is quite cumbersome and with generics there seems to be a more elegant approach.
Thanks for your input! I'll have a look at both build flags and macros for sure! For my specific problem enums will do just fine I guess, but having an overview about the possibilities helps a lot!
Thanks for your reply!
Thanks for the advice! I didn't know generic functions were preferred. But it makes perfect sense if you think about it.
Thanks for the explanation! I think just using an enum will do perfectly well in my case.
Now I get your point. Technically, I think it could be possible to only include the changes in Chrome. It would make sense for Google to push the changes all the way down to Chromium, though, as this would eliminate ad blockers on many competing browsers as well. Judging based on the past I would say this is what's gonna happen
I guess so. I don't get your second point however. Chromium is as independent from Google/Chrome as your banking app from your bank account.
Its mentioned in the article. Just posting you got a proxy and giving the address away via DM already decreases the chance of getting blocked a lot.
