Yeah, people in the 90s really loved installing redhat 4 (not rhel 4, the old versions) and getting a vulnerable pop2/pop3/imapd running by default after installs. You would get hacked within the hour if not behind firewalls. Very

> Blink lets me pull out the virtual machine trick when I need it (e.g. someone wants to run the apps I've released on an esoteric platform like MIPS OpenBSD). Me and the other user of Mips on OpenBSD are both glad you do!

1982 is also some 80 years into production of gas driven cars with people riding in them. It can't be that people before 1981 were fine with a large possibility of getting roasted in their cars and only later did someone figure it woul

In Sweden the same applies, at least if you have panels that can feed back excess into the grid for payment. In case the main grid goes off, your equipment is supposed to stop working so that it doesn't feed power backwards into the gr

This makes it sound as if the ipv6 crowd would be larger than "the windows crowd". Perhaps start with convincing every windows user first, then "the ipv6 crowd" should be easily convinced.

I guess we are at a point in regards to AI driving where it actually doesn't matter "who" drove the car, as in the driver is always fully responsible, regardless of what the sticker on the FSD says, so they would ask Tesla ou

I don't get this argument at all. Either you ask them and trust the answer to be somewhat useful, or you just don't ask Tesla to tell the police/court what the state was 1-10-30 seconds before the crash? I might be small-mind

Since wireguard is not visible from the outside, you have immediately fixed everything related to ssh logs clogging up with failed attempts.

You'd be amazed if you were working with networking in the early 90s before TCP/IP "won" over NetBEUI/AppleTalk/IPX, and the same was said then, those huge weird numbers were unwieldy and nothing an admin shoul

For RISC ISAs like MIPS, then you can do a lot of ADD Reg0 to Reg0 and store result in Rx OR Reg0 with reg0 and store result in Rx XOR Reg0 with reg0 and .. The only issue is that for RISC, all these instructions are of equal length, so fli

It still doesn't mean it accepts the write as finished when only 1 PG has it. I agree on the risks on why 2/1 is stupid, just not that this also means writes finish faster with min_size < replication_factor.

"maybe don't use 2/1 replica (two copies but return already after only one got written)" I don't think ceph ever does that.

Sure, but it doesn't seem written as if it will be handled the same way, but for the owner it is. That one morning you get into the car and it has applied an update. You look at the changelog or what that list should be called, and it

So if you skip testing, and you skip reading the upgrade guide, skip editing pf.conf to adapt to some upcoming change and reboot into the upgraded OS version, you will still get a default pf that allows you to ssh in and fix it. But sure, o

It does allow you to not have a distinct move reg1,reg2 instruction but instead make it from "add r0,reg1,reg2" (or OR, or EOR r0 with reg1 into reg2). I guess one could synthesize a 2-complement NEG instruction by just SUB'i

Yes, the larger amount of cpu registers, the very much larger virtual memory space adds performance and security benefits, regardless of if you have less or more than 4G ram.
