You're right. Probably not. But at least the chance exists as there isn't a multi-KB obfuscated JS dependency somewhere that would be a lot harder to handle.

I designed a similar tool with that threat model in mind: the resulting HTML/JS is as minimal as possible so it’s possible to inspect before entering the password. Of course assumes safe browser and client machine.. https://

Same, but multiplayer won't be in the initial release :( See https://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/index.php?/topic/210405...

Time is difficult to do. You can use hooks to have a function called for events like entering a function or executing a new line of code and then decide in that callback if execution should continue. That's fairly expensive and might n

That seems neither close nor something special. There are different flight levels, so planes can cross each other safely.

I like how they don't mention the result of that exercise. I guess they didn't find it?

My gut feeling is that we're entering into capitalism's end game phase. The endless growth is unsustainable and is eating away the only planet we have. Once it becomes apparent that business as usual isn't going to work any l

As purely an outsider and not OP: it seems their contractors and support people have direct access to critical customer data simply by typing password and/or totp into a form. Seems it’s not always the correct one. * Limiting access (m

I would have assumed that's always the case for all storage devices? Or am I naive? I would expected any cloud provider to do that, even if it's just to make disposing old drives easier.

It probably helps a lot that it's still not a publicly traded company. Steam can prioritize long-term profits and doesn't have to squeeze out its user base for every last penny. Counter example: Activision/Blizzard.

Cannot speak for the others, but paddle also does handle all tax related issues for you. That can quickly get pretty complicated if you have international customers.

If you need multiple version of such a disk image, a tool like restic (or I guess borg too, not sure?) can also compress what's provided to it via stdin. So you'd dd directly into restic and it will delta compress to earlier backu

I wrote a similar software for the same reasons. One goal for mine was that the generated output is small enough to quickly verify that the code sent to the browser is the one you expect. Total code size is under 100 lines. https:/&#x

A dormant account that suddenly gets a large influx of new users sounds like a great way to get auto-banned by some stupid automated process as well, just when you most need them to work :-}

I never understood why gevent wasn't integrated more into default Python. I think at the moment it still requires monkey patching, so non-aware functions use the gevent variants. But once you've done that, you can gevent.spawn() a

Additionally they support "Critical Alerts" on iOS for when you really need to get a notification regardless of whether or not you've muted your device. Probably something similar is possible on Android as well?

The raw terrain texture and height data is probably a bit lower res in most cases. Some places have photogrammetry, in which case it looks pretty good and looks similar. Outside those areas, which is limited to mostly major cities, any stru
