I think what makes false positives scary in this context is that accusation is guilt for most practical purposes. There needs to be a tremendous ammount of openness around systems like this so that people understand the meaning of it's

I understand they time the exhaust primary lengths so that the next cylinder to open does so into low pressure, to get the most stale gas out of the cylinder possible enabling the most fresh gas possible to come back in later. However since

About 20 years ago I was on my own in the Gobi desert for a while and the silence is still the thing I remember most. It was odd and unexpected.

Compromise a bit, give more detailed guidance than usual for a reduced number of tasks while you're away, accept that the result won't be up to your usual standards and might need to be revisited later. Can anyone else pop their h

Google Domains is pretty no-frills. My only worry is if they randomly decide to nuke my Google account, as they are want to do to people sometimes, what happens to my domains.

Pleating is a pretty solved problem too, many filters produced by the million are pleated and can be safety critical too.

Yeah those numbers don't make sense, 300W should fit on a van but wouldn't power very much. Wonder how much sunshine they get up there.

Nope it's just all the old planes flying around that require it. As the engine in a plane could be considered to be fairly safety critical people are extremely resistant to trying new things on it.

Lead also has lubricant properties for things like mechanical fuel pumps and injection, valve seats and stems, so it's not just for octane boosting you need to replace the lubricant too.

To be fair I was thinking about the way MS-DOS solved problems that came along later like having lots more RAM and larger file systems. 640k, expanded memory, extended memory, file size limits. Things that I don't think CP/M was d

This is addressed in the comments on the linked page, the browsers on those platforms do support the required codecs and all that's required is a user agent change to get the xbox end to activate them.

Do you mean privilage escalation or have I misunderstood? i.e. you could for example exploit one of the recent Exchange vulnerabilities then use this to get SYSTEM and own the box.

Is there something you could do on fiverr or upwork? As these abstract you from the customer a little more, and good comms and service will get you a long way.

It seems kind of, but better because memory can be compressed and/or paged out using a more advanced algorithm than before which assumes fast NVME's available to inform it's decisions.

Most websites and web apps spend so much time on server side CPU per page load that offloading a few static requests makes next to no difference. The CDN thing is way down the list of changes you can make to improve performance in most case

There’s a pretty cheap program that will do auto blocking, it’s easily googleable. Also changing the default port will cut down the numbers. I’ve had one hacked over RD gateway so that alone isn’t the answer. On our cloud windows servers we

It’s frustrating. I had outbound smtp throttled right down and a script running that shut smtp down completely if the queue got too big. That triggers an alert and everything gets sorted. But no, we don’t like where you’re from so jog on. M

You still need hardware in the house to power it from a generator, basically a switch with a safety interlock. If you just wire it up in a dumb fashon you are sending voltage back out of the house and down the street, with a wide veriety of
