> We need a better browser…. Don’t say Firefox. Brave could be it I suppose. Brave is just based on Chromium... it might have lots of different features, but still Chromium it is under the hood.

Looks like very early stage, but this is wonderful news if it works or will eventually work!

Something like that, but rather on the form of a .EFI executable (for example), to load it on UEFI firmwares that don't provide a CSM: there are many of them...

This is expected, given how hard it would be to DOS in a UEFI-based environment. Is anyone aware of a BIOS emulation layer (or an actual BIOS...) that can be loaded into UEFI to start BIOS-aware OS/programs?

> Using HTTPS + Basic Auth is far more secure, and (arguably) easier at this point. Totally makes sense...

by ale42 5y ago
Funny that old things like basic HTTP auth are regularly rediscovered by developers. There are also other flavours of authentication that can be used in this context, like Digest, supported by all major browsers and only sending hashed pass

Looks nice at a first glance! Any chance that one day there will be a light native, application for the various PC platforms (Linux/Windows/Mac) that doesn't require users to use their browser? (btw Firefox doesn't even

Indeed 5G had nothing to do: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2022/02/radio-station-snafu-in-... Btw nice advice for the antenna... I'll try to remember it the day I'll finally manage to have an antenna

The page reads "A few weeks ago cellphone companies — and KUOW — switched to a 5G signal." What's the link between 5G and an FM radio station, anyone has an idea?

There are actually a few (though I never tried any), see e.g. https://wiki.freepascal.org/fpCEF3

fully agree... and those (Lazarus/wxWidgets/Qt) generate native code and don't require you to ship a browser with your application...

Many small enterprises probably aren't. But the CGNAT problem can be solved by a VPN seamlessly connecting to the rest of the enterprise network, for those companies that need incoming connectivity (might be for remote maintenance, for

Between the client and the SOCKS5 proxy? Of course using the SSH SOCKS proxy will encrypt data, I was rather thinking to a plain SOCKS5 proxy. Are there clients and servers supporting SOCKS-level encryption between the client and the proxy?

I use both VSCode and Notepad++, for different purposes. Notepad++ is great when only working on a few files, or just needing to edit something quickly. It's light, doesn't use a ton of memory and can open huge files quickly. VSCo

SciTE is super light, but has less functions. Notepad++ is based on the same engine (Scintilla), though. Both are infinitely lighter than Electron-based editors...

Perfectly makes sense! But such hardware can be an additional place for their implants... supposing that the hardware is already there. Not that they are supplying it or replacing the passive one with the (clearly detectable) one in quest

Too bad, reading the title I was hoping for some UHF mystery signals ;-)

does SOCKS5 provide encryption?

This seems so nice for NSA-like implants...

This is awesome!

For the problem of converting pulses to tones, some time ago I made a small circuit that generates the DTMF tones directly inside the phone. It's basically an interface between the rotary dial and the phone line, based on a simple 8-bi

I guess it is a purely didactic project to learn about RSA and related maths in Python?

I don't fully agree with the article, but I see everyday sites that can be so much faster by making code more optimized. Processors are getting faster and people have more RAM? Nice, let's make web sites heavier removing any optim

Try _editing_ an existing WiFi Enterprise profile with Windows 10? Looks like they dropped all links to arrive to the right windows in the classic control panel, and there's no way of doing that with the horrible minimalistic modern UI

Didn't check the details... how would bandwidth and responsivity compare to a regular SSH connection? Or MoSH?

I think that the most hated part of VB6 was more the BASIC language rather than the GUI design part... but maybe I'm wrong.
