Security issues? Yes, there were 0days after 0days. Adobe kept pushing updates, but users were often lagging behind. Researchers continually found new vulnerabilities. Browsers weren't as sandboxed and hardened as they are today, and f

Also, waiting for IP is a huge bar for entry. Suppose you just want a soft core for a one-off FPGA project. RISC-V is a no-brainer if you need to run complex stuff like a Linux kernel. There's myriad of projects to pick from on GitHub.

x86_64 is much harder to implement though. The superiority of the ecosystem is debatable. I guess you mostly have proprietary software in mind? (including Microsoft Windows). That will improve with time.

Systemd would be at odds with config.scm's declarative approach to system management here. I mean, it could work, but part of Guix's appeal is using the same language (scheme) for managing all aspects of the system. I admit that&#

The websites are extremely slow to load on my phone (galaxy s4 with lineageos 17.1). Using midori in a private tab: - Time to load a twitter link: 14s (20s to display a preview of the picture). - Same link on a nitter instance: 5s, page ful

I haven't used ZFS, but you can easily use NFS to share a filesystem from a central (ZFS) "file server". NFS works very well over wireguard, as wireguard gives you "trusted" source IPs, and NFS uses that to check pe

I agree that the proposed solution has many flaws, and that PAKE is much more promising than any plain password-based scheme. As another commenter pointed out, OPAQUE is very interesting. I just wish browsers natively supported that authent

Ultra-Wideband is starting to make its appearance in some customer-level products, such as airtags. I am not sure if interference would be an issue if tracking multiple object, but the technology seems like a good fit! From a simple search,

If using Lighthouse, the drones would need to carry sensors, you're thinking of oculus tech. However, by using a lot of base stations, lighthouse should be able to cover a big area... provided there isn't too much infrared light i

GPS-RTK is not that hard or expensive: https://docs.centipede.fr/ (in French). https://docs.centipede.fr/docs/make_rover/rover_v5_1.html lists a €180 GPS module, which is not dirt-cheap, but still

To put it bluntly, we use R,G,B because those are the photoreceptors in our eyes. Our R,G,B LEDs are tuned for maximum effectiveness on our photoreceptor cells [1]. Red photoreceptors are probably not very useful for sea fish as red is easi

Contrarian post :) Firstly, you don't really mention when the golden age of tech is for you . The answer can be quite different depending on the technological niche you are thinking of[1]. I'd argue that it's not over yet,

Even if it succeeded, it would be yet another cat-and-mouse game with Google, for little benefit. Of course anyone is free to work on whatever they want, and I might use it if a solution existed. Nymphcast and Kodi work relatively well as a

I'm pretty sure btrfs would detect these issues as well. It has certainly saved me before thanks to checksumming.

If you are low on sugar (therefore hungry) for a while, your body will start burning fat (lipolysis) to restore sugar levels. This will suppress apetite. It's easy to experience, although it can take longer for lipolysis to start if yo

Chromecast is completely closed-source, I'd argue against buying into that ecosystem. Nymphcast [1] is an alternative, but wouldn't be compatible with existing clients, since the protocol is different. Miraclecast [2] is an implem

TBH, "In a browser" (like here) is pretty different from "on the Internet" (like google docs). Except that if someone was to make slight changes to the hosted application, it could leak everything.

They're probably here because of the "layering" concept. If you view it from that angle, they're necessary to identify the application. Of course, they are not really used that way nowadays... except by firewalls maybe,

Unfortunately web browser, web apps and websockets can only use a few ports, so if you run a service that you later want to interoperate with a web app of some sort, you don't really have a choice. In a way, ports are already becoming

That sounds like an extremely interesting topic, thanks for the answer! I wish it was spelled a bit more clearly on the website too. That would interoperate well with RFC 1149 (IP over avian carriers!).

Can the interaction also be approximated using the wavelength? E=hc/λ -> λ=hc/E -> λ=1.239/(1.4e15)=8.9e-16 μm Vanishingly small, about 900 yocto meters, or seven orders of magnitude smaller than a proton. No wonder we

PostmarketOS gets you pretty close to this: boot alpine Linux, with more or less everything working. Even if the screen and/or GPU acceleration do not work on that phone, that would be plenty to replace a Raspberrypi. I've been th

Hi, from a first glance at the project, how would it compare with yggdrasil, cjdns, etc (pinecone, batman and other mesh networks) ? Edit: looks like the main difference is caching, allowing for disconnected networks (also sneakernets) to s

I haven't looked it up for that standard, but the pattern is often built into the protocol: it doesn't matter if it repeats after a while. That topic reminds me of the interesting visualization posted for GPS 26 days ago: https:&
