I'm a little curious how that would work. If they did build a handheld, would it use ARM or x86? ARM is the obvious choice, but how many steam games have ARM builds? Is this intended to be like a steam link, where gameplay is just stre

I wonder if this has anything to do with Cicada 3301? Their puzzles involve prime numbers quite a bit.

I remember reading that the problem was not that it was some ingenious cipher, as many would believe based on the headlines, but that the Zodiac had made several errors encoding his message. Apparently he had used an algorithm out of an old

Hi! Great plugin, though I haven't explored it very much at all. I hope to do so over the next few weeks as I get started with the basics of binary exploits. Once I have some more experience I'll let you know. I think my issue is

I can wrap my head around how memory works, but gdb just feels... hard to use. The commands are esoteric and hard to remember and the syntax can be arcane. Plugins like pwndbg add color highlighting and other new features, but on the whole

It'll be a good opportunity to see some nice hardware hacks, sure. But I'd guess serious miners don't really wanna deal with that shit and will just buy the miner-specific cards or use ASICs. This measure just raises the bar

Actually I think I'm not understanding this properly... does the phrase 'messaging service' mean the email service, i.e the server? So the server would not store my mail, but the client would? I guess the answer is obvious. S

Good idea in theory, but this part: ```To prevent theft of correspondence (in the event of a compromised account or server) the messaging service must store only messages that have not yet been delivered or returned as undeliverable. Where

Oh shit, you're the author... Alright, I've read the links and I'm willing to change my mind and accept that this is a more complicated topic that I thought and that being a furry isn't inherently sexual. I'm sorry.

I've edited my post with my actual opinion.

by Alekhine 5y ago
Well, I'm being facetious. I read the post and the author seems to be a good person and intelligent. I just think furries are gross. I would still be friends with one.

I actually like it, I just wish it wasn't so fast. The delay is less than a second when really it ought to be more like a a second and a half.

I truly encourage anybody, not just manga fans, to read Death Note. It is very, very good. Very rarely do you find such a well-crafted detective story. And you have to read it. The anime skips over a lot of details that are necessary to f

Holy shit... I read Bellingcat from time to time, I've known of them since the founder's kickstarter. This is nuts. If even half of what this article says is true, they're just a mouthpiece for the US intelligence community.

What kinds of attacks could we actually see with this? Servers don't use bluetooth and desktops often don't, but Linux laptops and IOT devices often do. With Linux laptops being a rarity and IOT devices already being insecure piec

I think, on the whole, widely available books is better for society than publisher's and even author's profits. Of course I believe an author should receive compensation, but laws designed to get them that compensation shouldn&#x2

Yep, just tinker. I'm interested in a system simple enough that I can understand in it's entirety.

Oh, whoosh. Thanks, I'm not a professional programmer so I haven't had to think about things like that yet.

Wait, why can't devs use GPL software at work? How is code compiled with GCC any different from code compiled with Clang, legally speaking?

Wait, what do you mean? Set up Fediverse on WiFi? Fediverse refers to decentralized social media which can 'federate' with each other.
