In an industrial environment price is usually less relevant, or even irrelevant. Reliability is key here. Downtime of a machine can quickly rack up huge costs, so you want to spend extra on hardware that can resist greater temperature range

Depends on your definition of 'better'. Theoretically SHA-512 is harder to brute force than SHA-256, but 256 bits is already extremely strong, so really there is no practical safety benefit of SHA-512 over SHA-256. On 64-bit capab

A: (from the article) SHA-1 has been broken for 15 years, so there is no good reason to use this hash function in modern security software. Attacks only get better over time, and the goal of the cryptanalysis effort is to warn users so that

I guess the same was true for Flickr. But trying to find a brand name that doesn't offend in any language, while also not having to pay $10k to some domain squatter is basically impossible nowadays.

I'm a heavy WSL user, ever since I switched to Windows last year (after using MacOS for 6 years, and Linux before that). I must agree that typing is pretty responsive compared to other windows applications, but still nothing near the n

I haven't looked at it from that angle yet, but you are right: If you share the whatever.has-a.name address with other people and tell them to trust it, then this is very dangerous. However, the OP wrote this: > but keep in mind tha

No, this is nothing specific for Lets Encrypt, this is how PKI works. A certificate is for a domain name, not an IP address. Anyone can point a (sub)domain that they own to an IP address that they do not own. And then get a valid certific

No, they'd have to get a cert for your domain name. Which they can't, because they cannot prove they own your domain name. All they are doing if pointing to your IPv6 address, anyone can do that, that is why DNS TXT validation i

As far as I understand, all they are doing is resolving the ipv6 address in the domain name to an AAAA record that matches the IP address in the name. The domain name will still be 'has-a.name', so I don't understand how the

I don't think there would be many clients that would support that. The API clients are usually not browsers in their case.

Those are the exact same comments as people had on Tesla roughly 8 years back. There even was a whole website dedicated on the Tesla 'death clock', predicting when they would go bankrupt. Only time will tell.

The patch is still fresh so it's not distributed to most mirrors yet. In case syspatch doesn't appear to do anything, check your /etc/updateurl, set it to the OpenBSD CDN, then run again.

If you look at the pictures, you'll see they blocked off a portion of the rear lights with a plastic wrap that matches the car's color. This makes it pretty hard to recognize the make/model from behind. The typical MB front (

That depends on where you live, but yes, the design used in the USA (known as the 'type A' connector) was very poorly designed. It gives very little mechanical support. The country I live in happens to use the type F connector, wh

Exactly my thoughts. Even a raspberry Pi can serve 100k page views in a matter of minutes (seconds?). But in a world of serverless-cloud-bigdata developers seem to have forgotten just how powerful modern computers are, and how much we have
