Why wouldn't it be possible? All it really means is that you need to do the work to make incremental entirely on the local side and not on the remote side.

The answer is boring and annoying, they almost certainly want it to work with TVs and cheap monitors both of which commonly only have HDMI inputs. It has been my experience that you typically have to pay more for a USB-C dock with displayport outputs, even though they don't have the chip just cause of economies of scale.

You can make an email you don't care about with protonmail, I recommend them cause they don't require you to enter an existing email address or a phone number when signing up.

yeah EDL loaders for a bunch of production devices exist here [0] also more on various XDA Forum posts for stuff like unbricking guides. It is worth noting for people who don't

But reading QFUSES specifically requires an EL3 loader "edl qfp qfp.bin -> To dump qfprom fuses (only on EL3 loaders)" and I don't believe most devices programmers (especially as relatively new as the OnePlus 6) run under that privilege level.

A better resource is https://www.temblast.com/ref/loaders.htm

I haven't tried it out, but it looks they recently added PKCS#11 which should make it possible to use it with devices like HSMs and cloud KMS solutions.

UAC is not a security boundary, it is instead considered a defense-in-depth feature (aka best effort but bypassable). This is officially documented by Microsoft in multiple places.

The price of that system is unfortunately going to end up being a lot more than 4k, you'd need a CPU that has at least 64 lanes of PCIe. That's going to be either a Xeon W or a Threadripper CPU, with the motherboard RAM, etc you're probably looking at least another 2k.

Also kind of a nitpick, but I'd call that 8 GPU system, each BMG-G21 die has 20 Xe2 cores. Also even though it would be 4 PCIe cards it is probably best to think of it as 8 GPUs (that's how it will show up in stuff like pytorch), especially because their is no high-speed interconnect between the GPU dies colocated on the card. Also if you're going to do this make sure you get a motherboard with good PCIe bifurcation support.

Sometimes it is a little more work to get stuff setup, but it works fine I've run plenty of models on my 7900 XTX wan2.1 14B, flux 1.dev and whisper. (wan and flux were with comfyui and whisper with whisper.cpp)

libVLC the library is LGPL licensed, VLC the application is GPL licensed. This plugin was of course just using libVLC so it being GPL was not the issue. As you said several other libraries unity uses are also LGPL licensed.

Thank you for the explanation! If I knew that, I had forgotten.

it is worth pointing out that tink has binding for a bunch languages (C++, objective-c, rust, python, go and java) and has support for a bunch key management systems (GCP, AWS and Hashicorp)
