If it were a criminal case you could be right. But you cannot sue a nation state, you cannot imprison an institution and culpable people may be hard to come by. But actually, civil liability is more relevant here, since worldwide damages we

Signal backup encryption works by trusting SGX. If you cannot trust SGX, you have to assume the attacker can decrypt your signal backups, of course including all media and messages.

Well, then be so kind as to enlighten me about those important android devices that aren't mobile phones and are in urgent need of DHCPv6. And what might those other aspects of DHCPv6 be? That it is an ugly misdesign that doesn't

DHCPv6 is useless on mobile devices. Mobile devices typically (read: by default, and if they don't people will berate them for not caring about privacy) randomize the DHCPv6 DUID and MAC address used for the connection, meaning that on

Also, all the standards were crap. HTTP got basic auth, which is crap because plaintext password transmission happens, also the browsers never got around to implement any sensible UI (e.g. you cannot log off). Then it got digest auth, which

Ah, yes, that wasn't sufficiently clear in my text. In almost all projects I've done/used, go modules work fine and are nice. It is just this one library that I know ceased to work.

In most cases, these things would work, but not here. Tried everything, nothing works except using a pre-modules-compiler. In general, golang seems to work best with golang-only projects. As soon as there are other languages in the mix, lik

They used to work until the big modules change a few golang releases ago. Now, nothing works anymore unless you exhume a sufficiently old golang compiler. The project also seems dead since 2020 or so, a current fork is https://gi

Wayland doesn't really replace Xorg, tons of things are nonworking, downright weird, stupid or neglected in Wayland. The original article even says so.

Germany's renewable industry also was never profitable, if you look at the whole country. It was always propped up by huge subsidies, and when those subsidies where scaled back (as planned and announced beforehand), the whole rent-seek

There is required disclosure, certainly for anything on the INES scale and for lots and lots of things below that. But there will always be some kind of lower limit to the reporting requirements, so things don't get ridiculous. Current

Also, there is no choice in political parties with those issues. After Merkel went back on her promise to strengthen nuclear and changed her mind, there was no party left supporting nuclear power in Germany. The only option one has there is

There is EURATOM (ages old, precedes the EC/EU and is a founding "part" of it), but they aren't really running any commercial reactors, it is more of a political body for control and exchange of knowledge.

The pressure is higher in A/C and heat pumps, and you have liquid propane in half of the system. A leak there will quickly create a huge volume of flammable propane-air-mixture at room pressure. The usual plumbing for heating and cooki
