There's a lot of nitpicking around this topic. Mainly because "a chain of blocks" only describes the Merkle Tree part of "blockchain technologies". I'd personally argue that "blockchain" is a bad way

Sandboxing itself won't. The way publishers and distributors will implement sandboxing will. Someone will develop a reasonable, possibly quite open sandboxing technology. That technology goes on to be adopted by one or multiple major p

This has its own up- and downsides. While the game not being sandboxed creates risks for the consumers (as demonstrated by FROM with Dark Souls 3) and allows people to more easily exploit the game, it also makes modding and often times supp

What exactly is your point here? Console games need (mostly the same kind of) netcode as well. They are just generally harder to exploit, which dramatically lowers the amount of people trying to do so. They are capable of writing a netcode

Working with git can become extremely complex if your workflow is bad. Not git's fault, though.

I do really like GitLab, I use it at work daily. But they manage to change and sometimes break the UI in every update and it just gets more and more bloated every day. - At least that's what it feels like.

These are the immediate "products" GitHub provides, however, I would argue it provides a lot more. GitHub provides a place for people to easily collaborate on FOSS software. It has helped millions of people getting into software d

Well GitHub is just a hub for git projects, a git hub. Most people will get that.

The main social issue is that green energy is better used as marketing than to really do something about the ever rising levels of emissions. After all, most people don't care to read the actual facts on supposedly new, superior techno

I'd like to add that the fact that single tickets are [sometimes too] expensive in some cases is due to the approach of billing by geographic zones, which has its own up- and downsides. For example: If I want to go from somewhere aroun

There's something very enjoyable about seeing knowledgable people dissecting things. As someone who can do - and has done - both hardware and software work, I also understand why people like to share these experiences. Every step in re

Data hoarding is not a problem. Collecting and organizing something can bring great joy to people. Think of collectors. Most of my collection is older stuff, not available on streaming services anymore. Forgotten, almost, in a lot of places

I would actually urge anyone to check out KiCAD instead, not just as well. The only merit Fritzings has against a thriving open ecosystem such as KiCAD is its dumbed down interface that would make it more accessible to beginners. However, i

These two companies destroy thousands of businesses with each update of their policies or operating systems and we have just come to accept, in some cases even endorse, this tragic state of affairs.

Kinda, we've been using wg on multiple servers (~10 atm) across two different networks to aggregate monitoring data from each. Works like a charm so far, we provision them all via Ansible and use iptables to only allow access to metric

Every joke relates to something or someone who is potentially offended by it. By this logic, you have to ban humor.

Not sure how far fetched an accusation can be in this case. If the data is accessible in plain text on a device that is clearly linked to an identifiable natural person, which is data that an attacker can easily access, the point of "j

Not if your API design is so bad that any third party can access them, apparently. Aside from that, I'm pretty sure they'll also get stored on their servers, if you have not declined all the nagging iCloud sync requests.

I assume you will not be happy if we tell you that there are mods that drastically increase the granularity of production processes and will make you easily work 200h on a single map before ever launching a rocket..?

It also impressively shows the other side of things, where you can keep your factory running on hotfixes until pretty much the end of the game. You can most certainly launch a rocket (i.e. ship your final product) with any kind of setup but
