   Thanks for correcting me, I vaguely remember external key generation being possible/done but google is being useless at helping me find where I read about it.

   Just for comparison the Estonian system: * As far as I know upon cert renewal the new cert is generated on your computer, uploaded to the card and then deleted - you could theoretically intercept that but I don't see why you would - th

   I'm starting to feel like I'm shilling Estonian eID (I'm not, just a regular citizen), but I think that system is the very least a cool proof of concept (if not a state of the art example) how public crypto can be used to sig

   I've used both GNPG and Estonian eID. I have to say Estonian eID is way more usable when one needs to sign anything. The (digidoc4) software is just way more usable, nicer and designed for the task. I wish GNUPG were as good

   Yeah, and that's how you get laggy user interfaces that at least I despise. Spend that 4€ on a better chip.

   USB-C standard has a s tload of DRM built-in with quite a bit of crypto protecting it. You can even ask the country code where the power is from! I've yet to hear about Lighting possibly being region-locked D:

   If you read it more carefully, it says "designed to avoid catching" not "must not catch".

   Speaking of crap DNS, OVH's webUI does not have DNS CAA support and their support claims they don't support it but their API is able to add the record and it works. It's a pity it isn't just a TXT record.

   Can someone explain what security does forbidding pasting provide? My brain just can't comprehend it. Also, would a fix be a password manager that just ignores the forbidding or is it done with JS somehow?

    To be fair the protocol was on in my opinion life support and IRCv3 really gives a few more years to the protocol and clients. Actually, I still think most IRC clients stale as f * even with IRCv3, for example embedding images and videos i

    How do we know that microplastics and other particulate in say human bodies or foods are somehow "inert"?

    And we'll create plastics that are plastic-eater resistant...

    by dcbadacd 8y ago

    That's one thing to consider, but it's ignoring a major aspect - biodegradability. Yes, a plastic bag is in some ways more efficient per ton than a cloth bag but doesn't decompose safely and fast, cloth usually does.

    So the "even somewhat problematic" part of wheat is problematic to only 1% of the entire population and that's an argument to kill off all wheat, yeah, no, try again.

    I'd like to hear about a food that isn't in some way problematic, can you list any?

    Pretty sure Rockchip has violated Linux's GPL. Rest of who you listed I've never seen/used in real life.
