I don't know if they will. It is highly unlikely. But theoretically, it is possible, and very well within their technical capabilities to do so. It's also not as complicated as you make it sound here. Because Apple controls the ha

Attestation requires a root of trust, i.e. if data hashes are involved in the computation, you have to be able to trust that the hardware is actually using the real data here. Apple has this for your device, because they built it. You don&#

Usually this is done the other way around - servers verifying client devices using a chip the manufacturer put in them and fully trusts. They can trust it, because it's virtually impossible for you (the user) to modify the behavior of

Europe has an energy crisis and modern nuclear power could have solved it, if we hadn't stopped researching it because of a bunch of fools.

I'm not aware of anyone having a solution for "batteries" at the required scale. We'd need several TWh of storage, there could be a month without wind. The only reason nuclear scales so slowly is because of the bureaucra

I checked out their program, but they were anti nuclear power, so there was no way to vote for those fools.

Wat? NVMe storage is much slower than RAM. And orders of magnitude slower than VRAM.

Am I having a stroke? I am 100% certain I saw this exact topic with these exact comments yesterday, but here we are with all of them saying they're from 5 hours ago.

This seems like a start, but just marking applications as "trusted" doesn't cut it. We need real rules like each program can only access its own installation folder, its own user data folder, and any folders the user has expl

The real question is why the hell can said infostealer malware access the file. Can we PLEASE have proper per-process file access restrictions on Windows already - like MacOS has had for a decade now ????? Why is win32 app isolation still n

That's what they said it costs on their blog, not that they charge that. https://blog.cloudflare.com/aws-egregious-egress Where are you getting 6 cents from?

Fun trivia: downloading 45TB costs about $60, according to Cloudflare.

Just do it like a web browser - when you install Chrome it comes with a list of many tens of thousands of domains that had HSTS set when GoogleBot visited it.

How do you deal with DDoS attacks against said OVH servers?

by andersa 2y ago
Do we know of any alternative services providing at least the basics of what Cloudflare does? Such as: - Unmetered DDoS protection (i.e. no absurd base fee for it existing) - Unmetered rate limiting (protection against cost attacks o

According to Cloudflare themselves, 80TB traffic should cost around $100/month. See: https://blog.cloudflare.com/aws-egregious-egress

This is an advantage. EBS is terrible! Literally orders of magnitude slower than modern SSDs.

I thought Chat Control was dead. Is it coming back? The article is far too long.

Hm true, it does matter a great deal on laptops.

No one cares for power saving. Turn it into higher performance at same power usage and people will bite. Of course it has to actually be a real upgrade like the Apple Silicon chips were.

That sounds like a bug or the server being overloaded, the article loaded fine for me.

That's because the current ones are all ugly metal walls. Painting stuff on them makes it at least slightly less depressing.

It's also the boring part, so we might aswell automate it, right?

It can be useful just for experimentation, too. You don't have to commit all the code it writes. Most of the time it just feels like an autocomplete that is actually useful, it's scary good at writing the rest of the line exactly

There are many reasons to not use steam accounts or only use them for logging into another backend, such as cross play over multiple stores and platforms. The problem really is just the convenience. There's no reason it has to be this

They're free to sabotage themselves and miss out on this new wave of productivity, of course... I wouldn't want to ever work without Copilot again. So frustrating to not have my magic autocomplete when I have to make some changes

Feels like any game that requires a third party account for whatever technical reasons ought to have a "just do it" button that creates an account you can login to via Steam with no further interaction required, which must work in

If you go on Google Maps today, it works correctly - scrolling up zooms in.

Why does it zoom the wrong way around? Scrolling up means "zoom in" not "zoom out".
