Blame the sub-editors at the Telegraph, what's left of them (or more accurately it's CE Murdoch MacLennan and the weirdo Barclay Brothers that own it). That paper has been on a gradual downwards trajectory in quality for a long ti

It's still not ready for production use. One problem with e2e is that it's JavaScript based and runs in he browser, so there is a certain attack vector present there. To defend against this, ideally e2e needs to work with a smartc

Also interesting, those people live only within 4 electoral wards, whereas there are 25 total electoral wards within the City. Within the remaining 21 electoral wards, votes are controlled by businesses (mostly banks and the like), and the

I can only comment on the Linux side of GPU accelerated video decoding as that's where my experience is: Pretty much _the_ standard for GPU accelerated video decoding is VDPAU, originally an nvidia project, now open source. Support for

Odd. Chrome also uses it's own trust store, distinct from system and Firefox.. OpenSSL is a good starting point: openssl s_client -connect tails.boum.org:443

Yeah.. That's suspicious.. Firefox uses it's own CA list, so if your install of firefox is up to date, and your system clock is correct then you are potentially being MITM'd... If that is the case then your browser is exhibit

I thought my house was built some time between 1890 and 1900, but as I can see it on this map, I guess that puts it nearer to 1890. I'd like to think of some Victorian gentleman sitting in this very same room, smoking a pipe, reading i

It's definitely an album. The definitions are fairly woolly, but generally speaking, to be classed as a single, a release can have up to three tracks, with each track up to 10 minutes and in total no longer than 30 minutes runtime. Any

Yeah, but I don't think the wages paid to developers in SV (or pretty much anywhere in the western world) would be classed as 'low'.
