If the email accounts gets deleted, can somebody else create a new one with the same address and receive all emails from the deleted account and possible take over all other accounts? Then I would rather just leave the account open after I

Isn't it now much more difficult to figure out if certain components are or are not maintained? ConsoleKit was used in many commercial linux distributions and still wasn't maintained, now that its part of systemd and systemd is ma

I am not in any camp. I do think that systemd is very useful but have concerns that they simply don't have the man power to maintain that broad feature set and scope they have set themselves. What previously would be done in multiple d

Well, you could use certbot ( https://github.com/certbot/certbot , see https://certbot.eff.org/docs/using.html#dns-plugins ), which is from EFF, so not exactly third party, to do that.

I would like for matrix protocol and implementation to be better prepared for such cases. While I didn't loose access to the encrypted messages, since I used the 'Encrypted Messages Recovery' function of Riot.im, I guess a lo

I guess the point is that you cannot protect anything from the future if you don't just destroy it completely.

Thx for the reply, but it doesn't really answer the question: Why is the French government so uniformly for this reform and why are there no demonstrations against this in France, while at the same time in Germany this is a pretty divi

by chme 8y ago
What I find odd about the protest against this is that it is mostly coming from Germany. Why is France not protesting against this more?

Well it might be fast, but Java/Scala doesn't sound like it is very compact and easy to deploy. It results in a ~10MB jar file + the java runtime.

You have an issue with people taking companies at their word and providing ways to get things for free just as they claimed it would be? As I said in the other comment, everyone can value their contact information themselves, but I guess th

Well the value of personal contact data can everyone decide on their own, but personally I would not rate that as free. If you think your contact data (personal email and phone number) has no value, please share them here. You will probably

I use syncthing for file syncronization between laptop, desktop, nas and mobile phone. And scripts that 'index' the books and create a directory structure of the metadata (like tags, series, publication date etc.) containing symli

Maybe I should make myself a bit clearer here: I am not against an index or library in addition to the file hierarchy, but I am against a library or index replacing a directory listing. Both perspectives are very valuable! Also a full text

Nvidia will properly never do that. Since they don't see themselves as just hardware manufacturers. They want to bind customers to their hardware and cause them to buy newer hardware versions in high frequency and there seems to be no

If the issue the user has found is in the driver, then redirecting them there or maybe sending an automatic email for each unique issue to the driver mailing list might help fix the issue without much effort on the game dev side.

Proprietary software on Linux is a bit of an alien there. But there is always static linking, is it not? (And now flatpak+snap+...)

Then redirecting those issues to the right mailing list could still be very welcome by someone. IMO issues does not need to be fixed by the game developers and drv developers might be happy to have them and some code that reproduces them. N

That depends on the complaints. If those complaints are valid and lead to a better service for everyone, then I would rather have them instead of not having any feedback.

I haven't heard of any system that replaces passwords all the way. Apart from usability most systems eighter rely on things that are hard to change (biometrics), things that can be copied (keyfiles, cookies, software) or things that ca

That depends on what you want to do. Do you want to authenticate the system of the user or the user him/herself? If its the latter, then how do you protect the link from other uses of this system? Encryption? And how are you encrypting
