Same here, I'm aligned with what you describe. There are some exceptions, though (tabs are evil, etc…) where I have a strong opinion, and sometimes I fantasize about strongly holding it. I am conscious about letting any of those pet pe

It's not so big of a deal. Quoting [1], "France is the largest user of nuclear energy and has also mastered the process of recycling their nuclear waste. These two statistics are no coincidence. By not having to deal with nuclear

This article specifically targets an AMD-SP (Secure Processor); would you consider that a "secure element"? Also, from the article: "The AMD Ryzen 5 2600 is equipped with a glued, indium-soldered nickel-plated copper heat spr

I have read the linked post too quickly before sending my initial comment. Indeed, a back-channel notification to the legitimate account owner is probably a good idea. On the other hand, disclosing to the attacker that they got the password
