Agreed, the only thing that is certain is that they are cheating themselves. While it can be useful to use LLMs as a tutor if you're stuck. The moment that you use it to provide a solution, you stop learning and the tool becomes a requ

Yes, it would stop somebody's key from working, and that's the entire point, because most key fobs work on rolling ciphers, and if you block one, you can reuse it. Typically the fob will allow like 10 or so presses. It depends on

Looks very nice, however it doesn't seem to support subsonic yet, which means no Android Auto integration through Ultrasonic. I'm going to keep watch on this, there aren't many music players with interfaces that look that nic

Nah, you made an absolute statement that MQTT was insecure, that was demonstrated to be incorrect. If HTTP can be made secure by relying on a secure transport, then MQTT can as well. Additionally, MQTT does allow for authentication. I'

MQTT is not inherently insecure. Much like HTTP, there is a encrypted version that runs on port 8883.

It certainly has an optimized kernel for its use case. I believe it also includes ZFS by default. I wouldn't be surprised if the Proxmox developers would prefer to upstream these defaults, but they likely would introduce regressions f

You think they are, but you have to trust that this happens. And even if they are, what happens if the grid is offline and comes online while the inverter is operational, how long does it take, if it does at all, to adjust itself. If the pr

If the sine waves don't line up, you are in for a very bad time. There is a reason crossover switches exist, please never do this.

How would you be able to ensure you that? Even if say, Zoom itself wasn't recording, you can run OBS in the background. Trust runs both ways.

You can definitely loose one phase of a split phase transformer. I've seen it 3 times in my life. Sometimes it is completely out, other times I've seen only getting 80v rather than the full 120. All depends on how it failed.

Ok sure, but you're moving the goalposts. The OP was talking specifically with respect to using a non client side password generator. As a joke it is funny, but only a fool would use a password generator that can't be audited and

Is it paranoia to have proper security practices? You should strive to be excellent in everything you do. I do not think that targeting the GP with an ad hominem attack is a valid argument.

Both the standard Windows and Mac OS versions of docker use VMs (Windows uses WSL2 and IIRC Mac OS uses Virtialization.framework) as the OSes don't provide the a linux kernel for the containerized userspace. If it didn't do this,

I love framework's mission. I would not change the past on buying a framework. To provide a counter example, quite often I open my bag to find that my Framework 13 has cooked itself in the bag. The battery life, and the bad intel sleep

I would use Signal, but it ties to a mobile number, that is why I don't use it. Been using Element/Matrix instead. I'd consider switching if I could primarily use it on a Desktop decoupled from a mobile device.

Maybe as a side effect, they are more for stopping credit card charge backs. Those who would never give a credit card are a waste of time . Best to filter those asap.

The point is to filter out people who are unwilling to put up money. Why waste money on a trial for someone who is unlikely to convert. You sound like someone who is hard to sell to, so it is in the interests of most companies to discourage
