Haha yeah. It was mostly just fun for me as a nerdy child who spent way too much time on Astalavista forum. Cracking and RE were just gateways into a career in (defensive) security for me.

I think the fuel passing through is the only method that could be used to cool, the volume of fuel required is presumably constant, regardless of how much fuel you have left, so the amount passing through the pump should be the same until y

> doesn't the fuel pump use fuel itself as a coolant or something I know very little about these things, but my understanding was always that any form of liquid pump uses the liquid itself as coolant to some extent.

As someone who waits until my tank is almost empty, to visit Costco one per month for a fill-up, despite it being 5 miles away, I understand your point. However, I think (and hope) the point of this service is that by being public, it'

When I was a child, in the 90s, I did this all of the time. Input a unique string I could watch for, fire up SoftICE, watch for the string, and then step through until the == comparison happened, then either grab the calculated key and inpu

I recently spent several evenings re-working all of my colours across all of my computers and screens; terminals, IDEs, etc. Ultimately, despite using the same tools, and always dark mode, across all of my machines, the setup for each was d

It's certainly been interesting to watch over the span of my career so far. It's really quite interesting thinking back to that time for me in University, every few years something happens that sparks a memory; right now, it'

Ah that's it. I made the mistake of visiting their website which is heavy on marketing and low on what the heck their product actually is. Makes more sense reading the Github (though that too is pushing the AI angle more than A/V

They seem to have pulled it, I can't find it on my Pixel. I paid for it in 2014, and it hasn't been updated in about half of that time, they removed the cloud key backup at some point without notification so I lost all of the keys

It's not really clear to me what livekit is, but it appears to be some sort of agentic coding tool. Perhaps the similarity to Jitsi Meet is due to it regurgitating the source that an AI has ingested. The code base looks very different

Thanks for the tip. I'll take a look.

There's a Wiki link in OP that suggests two other pieces of software had added support in the past but were sued by Cricut's org to remove support. The real take home (as OP is clear about), is don't buy anything from this sh

I was equally confused by the headline. I wonder if it's just poorly worded and they meant to say something like "Replacing Protobuf with some native calls [in Rust]".

I'll have whatever you're smoking please. You don't acquire something like this, as a metrics company, who does cohort analysis and touchpoint tracking[0] simply to make a bit of ad revenue. Nova is dead. No room left for opt

Their former name "Branch Metrics", tells you all you need to know about them. > Branch also uses tools for cohort analysis and touchpoint tracking Just the kind of company I want in my phone.

There are a lot of variables that need to be factored in, and they don't cover many of them in these cheaper quotes. What size inverter? Is it a hybrid inverter? 10kWh of Storage is 8-9kWh usable because batteries are only warrantied t

I wasn't ripped off, but I didn't go for the cheapest quote either. I wasn't trying to suggest my installation was typical or what someone could expect to pay in the UK, the point I was trying to make was the cost of labour a

by alias_neo 9mo ago
In the UK, it's expensive, and it's not the technology, it's everything else. I don't see how that can improve unless the installation costs come down, and I don't know how that could/would happen. I had solar

I would hazard a guess that the (former) head of the Go security team at Google (OP) _does_ in fact understand.

Is there any way to switch to this implementation for generic WireGuard users? I tried downloading their Android app, but it's not generally usable for people who host our own WireGuard, which is fair enough.

I know what they do, it doesn't change the fact that we use them for emphasis.

That's the thing about scaling; you offload the work to the "client" (the TV in this case) and make it do the work, it need not send back more than a simple identifier or string in an API call (of course they'll send mor

Tell me you don't Markdown, without telling me you don't Markdown. It's a developer thing, using backticks means the enclosed text is emphasised when rendered from Markdown.

We just moved a bunch of infra off of Bitnami images and Charts; we won't be making that mistake again, and Docker is the worst culprit.

Interesting, thanks, I had no idea about much of this, I was aware of the door/mould thing, and stacking, though it's not something I've ever seen done here in the UK personally. As a "typical" British household, we
