I said "What..?" not because I didn't recognize the joke, but because nowhere did I bring up "security/privacy." My initial comment was stating that the blog post should clarify that these changes were not comi

Yeesh. You guys just went from restoring my faith a bit a few months ago to this possibility? I’m sorry, but please get a grip here, it’s tiring being on this rollercoaster.

Wow the blog host reads poorly then, when I read “self-managed” I assumed managed by the customer, not Hosted Gitlab. You might want to clarify that in the post..

I wonder if part of that is that a lot of flagships seem to have unlockable boot loafers now, with a force wipe to do so. Does that have a measurable impact on the number of people trying?

Didn’t know that was a law, neat.

Florida also does easy opt in voting (checkbox) with most DMV requests now too (not sure how long that’s been a thing).

If I recall correctly hashes are based only on the domain though, not the full path.

Appears to have pre-dated current events by around a year or so. Potentially a mistake, but who knows. https://twitter.com/alanwongw/status/1182159143248883712

Then I guess I hit another bug! The dang thing returned on my last big update.

It’s too late now, I already wiped the old backup and reassigned the license. I didn’t feel like wanting to waste the time much further after past experiences with support and what I read here.

It's completely broken here as well, which was really frustrating. I already wasted 117 days of a yearly subscription on one machine because it ran Catalina Beta (which was my fault, I needed a test machine, and I ate the time lost wit

It wouldn’t be very comfortable for either party, honestly. So I’d have to wonder if anybody small would ever try to enforce it.

I guess who/how defines what “significant value” is. For example: for some having it automatically spun up and maintained is significant to them.

I found this application the other day, and despite its look, it really is great.

They’re intentionally not sending an optional extension, that seems .. fair honestly.

The scenario described only occurs if they’re using host names for their upstreams, and that hostname is no longer resolvable. It results in an error during config parsing, preventing reloads and fresh starts. Moral of the story: don’t use

I think that's because Firefox falls back to system resolver if something funky happens. I'm using it strictly over DoH and it isn't working for me still.

_You_ understand the implications of visiting a non-encrypted site because you are a technologically savvy user. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the world does not have the experiences you and I have. Overall, it's a major plus tha

You're already linking against far larger libraries that you probably don't understand completely anyway! For example, glibc... So I don't think this is a valid excuse against the "HTTPS Everywhere" initiative.

And then it was later found out that, like I detailed in my edit, that that wasn't enough. Attackers could just modify the login page link on any unencrypted page and phish you that way. What I described is just one of many reasons the

Man, I cringed when he (OP in this case) said that "it's honestly kind of insane that we require encryption for text based websites like .. let's go to Wikipedia." (Around 4m in the video). I'm sorry, but no .. it&#

Yeah, sorry, was over generalizing it. They did make that first-party exclusion for SSO thankfully.

Curiosity strikes: I have to wonder how much these benchmarks would change on an actual Linux kernel? I don't know if the PostgreSQL team is necessarily tuning their project for macOS/Darwin. I'm sure Redis would still be fas

My ISP’s DNS servers take longer both in round trip and total resolution time compared to both 1.1.1.1 and 8.8.8.8... and I have both Comcast and AT&T in an urban area. While this might have been true in the past, that is definitely no

My understanding, although I am not a doctor, is that it boosts your immunity to the virus itself because they inject you with a active (but very weakened) version of the virus. That way when your immune system is depressed, its response is

Even the title says "Tethered." It's far from persistent.
