My girlfriend and I just did this and had a lot of fun! There were a lot of times where I thought I figured a word out but ended up having to go through about 5 or 6 really good guesses before landing on the right one. Sometimes little word

I found that when I started doing this I would just get even more calls, just not the same ones. I presume this is because these spammers just keep selling other spammers valid phone numbers to add to their own lists.

This reminds me of a racing game series I used to play when I was younger called TrackMania. The racing gameplay dynamic was simply about getting the best time. Getting gold medals on all of the single player tracks is just the beginning. O

The problem is that the microsoft-edge:// protocol is used throughout the Windows UI and menus and will always open in Edge regardless of the user's preferences. If you click on a link in say, the Settings UI, it will ignore

From my understanding the other goal that is often overlooked is that limiting resources on unmetered workloads prevents those processes from depriving others (and the host) of resources. It's mostly just a catch-all situation, but I w

I feel like the biggest problem I've had with smart home technology is that there is no out of the box standard for controlling or having access to all of your devices. Almost every device seems to require interacting with it with the

Looks very nice! I will have to try it. Do you have plans to announce it to matrix.org's This Week In Matrix (TWIM) updates? If you're looking for more testing and feedback I'm sure you'll get some from the visibility th

I generally solve this problem by having a module specifically containing the abstract base classes of each of the classes I will be working with that implements either no or bare minimum functionality for these objects. That way, any other

From what I can tell, Clang+LLVM is where all the innovation is happening. Clang in particular has seen many new security features for a modern compiler like the implementation of SafeStack[1] and Control Flow Integrity[2]. Even just on the

There are public and community-curated banlists than any homeserver admin can subscribe to. Probably not exactly a "spamhaus" equivalent, but it's pretty close.

Most bugs that get backported to stable kernels only get backported if they are serious enough or have a CVE assigned to them. Many bugs with potential security implications go unfixed because of this.

I don't think they have any reason to. If a customer wants to share their connection, they're still paying for the bandwidth. If they share it with enough people that they exceed any data caps, that's more money they will nee

SELinux can and does do exactly this, depending on the configuration. What you'll most often see is that applications covered will have rules that allow it to access a subset of the user's home content (xdg cache, data, etc.) that

You pretty much can't, because once memory has been written to at runtime it is assumed to be untrusted. JIT in and of itself is a W^X violation, so the only real solution is to not use it when security over performance is preferred.

I want to add that there is an ongoing effort to stabilize SELinux on OpenWRT[1] as well. Security on OpenWRT has been shaping up very nicely for a while now. [1] https://aparcar.org/running-openwrt-with-selinux/

While I don't agree with every way that the case against Snowden was handled, I don't agree with the thought that things would be much different if the two sides were flipped. The general attitude towards Snowden is too black and

Even if that scenario is true, there is zero evidence to corroborate it, nor has there been any concluded official investigation into the matter. I don't think it's fair for Twitter to execute that portion of their policy based on

Reading the article, nothing in the repair shop owner's interview strikes me as incorrect or inconsistent. It seems to me that the man is just inarticulate and has never been put on the stage by a reporter before, especially a stage la

You would have to block entire wordlists to combat subdomains like that. It would make more sense to whitelist subdomains instead, but it would require much more effort in order to determine what subdomains are required for the website to f
