Clearly the alternative is to return to HTTP, as these users are suggesting. Surprised they're still posting, with their employers being shut down at the moment and all.

So? I own more devices than a work laptop. I would like to have privacy and security on those.

Honestly I don't even think technical users would get the 'point' most of the time. Whenever I visit a HTTP-only site, I assume the administrator is either old and does not understand how to set up SSL, or it's an unmain

I assure you there are far, far more inefficient things they are doing than using OpenOffice.

Rufis can make windows on-the-go installs too for this purpose.

If it's a one-off program, have you tried Winboat or running it in a Windows VM?

I somehow doubt that it is quite truly worse in every single scenario, and that there is not one single scenario that port knocking may be better utilized than WireGuard. I also find it hard to believe it is engineering malpractice to use o

How is it not improving the threat model to not have a service directly connected to the internet, but instead put behind a layer of protection?

That's still not on the onus of society, but just on the school.

by DaSHacka 1y ago
Neither of these things happen, but even if either was miraculously true, should the onus be on the entirety of society to self-censor, or on the kids parents to parent properly (IE use parental controls and supervise screen time)?

I mean, both sides can easily argue both things. Did you miss the current administration's pushback against DEI for being "discriminatory towards white cisgender males"?

This is implying that free software is a 'gift'. It's not, it is an exchange. You gain the ability to use the library or program in exchange for releasing your changes and modifications. Well, unless it's MIT licensed, i

The funny thing is I have no idea what side you're talking about.

Exactly, and fwiw most manufacturers have moved to this model by now, or using randomly generated passwords printed on the physical device itself, in the case of routers.

Seems there was a typo, I think you meant to say "hard to imagine it almost was"?

What happens when someone doesn't flag any political posts?

by DaSHacka 1y ago
At that point, you should force the pain on the individual themselves. Why should all of us be handicapped because there's a couple morons that can't set decent passwords and connect their devices directly to the internet? Even if

Good times (60's economy) create weak men (boomers). Weak men create hard times (offshoring everything to china) Time to see if hard times will make strong men.

Of course its protectionism for China, so they can bolster their own economy, but free trade for the US, so they can bleed us dry.

This just in: every computer manufacturer forced to recall every single computer model they've ever sold because some users use weak passwords. I can't wait for all of them to switch to IOS-ified devices incapable of installing al

Many manufacturers are already moving there of their own accord. I really don't think we'd need some legislation to fix this problem.
