   I don't see how pi-hole get affected by DNS via https, unless you are leaving out the part about computers, tablets, and phones using hard-coded DNS servers that use DNS via https. This is a trend, but a very small one right now.

   There are defense contractors that do exactly this. Governments pay more than Apple will ever pay, so if you are in it for the money (and don't care about the ethical repercussions), selling the discovered exploits to governments is t

   I love this! It exemplifies the absurdity of making Linux a subsystem of Windows (a far less powerful OS) by doing the same thing with DOS!

   This paper seems credible, and there is a lot of other evidence showing that the CCP/PLA was doing genetic modification on coronaviri. So if we assume that the paper is correct, we must next consider whether or not the SARS-Cov2 virus

   Interesting that this other article on his blog says he left Apple voluntarily: https://lowendmac.com/2020/52259/ "After all this time, I cannot wait to see the back of Apple. I ditched iOS a few years back a

   Never saw the spider, but I do remember "xroach", in which roaches would scatter from underneath where a window was after being closed. Great fun from about 25-30 years ago. EDIT: It looks like xroach still lives! https:/&#x

   Also, it was very nice of Google to follow up and submit the patch to LKML. IMHO this goes beyond the scope of their role. They could have taken a more selfish approach and accepted the bug as "normal" behavior, and advised thei

    I don't expect this one to last long on ycombinator. Some "right thinking" mod will kill it quickly.

    It would be a fun experiment to create a network probe executable that exfiltrates results back to you, and then push it to Microsoft in this way. I wonder how secure their test environment could be if it has Internet access...

    Good comment, but I couldn't help notice that you got the date (6/6/1944 != 6/4/1943) wrong for Operation Neptune/Overlord: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Overlord

    It's not dead. Encryption has (unjustifiably) pushed the enterprise to install fake catchall certificates on proxies so they can snoop plain-text traffic. (Why anyone would ever think this is a good idea is beyond me.)

    Oh yeah, I forgot to mention that 132 characters was the most you could print on a single line of a line-printer back before laser printers were invented...

    Many people may not know that in the olden days, a disk was formatted with all bytes in all sectors set to hexadecimal E5 (11100101). When dumped, or looked at with a hex/ASCII editor, the E5 was displayed as 'e' because nob
