Remember that Haswell laptops were the last to feature socketed CPUs. RAM is nice to upgrade, for sure. As well as an SSD, but CPUs are still a must. I would even suggest upgradeable GPUs but I don't think the money is there for the ma

This is fine for devices that expose a true JTAG interface. But imagine something like Hitachi's User Debug Interface that exposes only boundary scan. The rest of the protocol is undocumented unless you have specific NDA clearance. In

Satoshi disappeared one day before Gavin went to the CIA for a Bitcoin presentation. He left the CAlert key and disappeared. I learned about Bitcoin either days prior or days later. As a newbie I did not care who created Bitcoin, but now I

15 years ago I could search and get relevant results. There is so much information from older forums and obscure blogs that will never get reached now. I use whatever method I can, Google, Bing, Copilot and ChatGPT to fill in the blanks.

I thought most software authors have this particular stance, which of course they are in their right to have, that they are offering free software and thus have no obligation to help anyone with anything, and they can always do it by themse

Food imports AND exports. Bulgarian farmers also heavily rely on subsidies. I know a few of them. Some drive very expensive cars, others 25 year old beaters. I cannot explain the discrepancy. However I can also say that because of climate c

Before the 90s, Bulgaria was manufacturing almost everything, it had its problems, but it functioned from what we've been told. Afterwards every single factory was shuttered, sold to individuals for the equivalent of a dollar. After th

Which to me is a very carefully orchestrated thing. You don't just spend 2 years of your life doing that. No loner would pre-plan this to such an extent and create sockpuppet accounts for all this.

Exactly. Also remember this >> odd valgrind complaint in automated testing of postgres I would imagine compiling a list of odd complaints may yield something , or nothing at all.

I would imagine quite a few. It would be prudent to start paying attention to the tools that were created to catch some of the issues(like how people ignore Valgrind errors) as well as commits made to OSS that disables some feature, because

They will likely now optimize the code to not trigger high latency and also ensure no Valgrind will find any issues.

To me this is false. They usually like quick profits. Look no further than Ethereum and defi chains like Optimism,Polygon etc. It is so easy to write a malicious contract that even I with more than 12 years in the cryptocurrency space got h

And I think people should now look at all oddities with Valgrind. Since that is how the issue got discovered. And then look at the problematic library and look for similar outliers of fake personas taking over a project. It seems it is comm

I mean, he was right at least. Jia Tan did have a bigger role.

It will. It always will, no technology on Earth now or likely in the future allow this to change. The only thing that will change is bandwidth or how much data can be sent at once.

I did and it was too addicting. I was scrolling for hours on end. At one point it was 12AM in the next it was 3:30AM and I was still scrolling. After deleting it, I felt better and my battery life improved too.

How exactly do these criminals get access to personal information and addresses exactly? If you are in an online game using some pseudonym, your IP address is hidden, how do you find a city/street address? Secondly unless the victim wa

Sorry, English is not my first language so it's not always apparent to me that something I've written is not correct.

Let it, it was a scourge on the world. Like every other simiar app it preyed on people's attention span, disintegrating it in the process, getting them addicted to just scrolling for that dopamine rush.

Funny thing about Farscape, it was my favorite TV show as a child. Fond memories. The only thing that doesn't hold up is Rygel, maybe back then it was ok, but it's pretty horrific to see it now in all of it's Animatronic glor

I was going to play around with Denuvo years ago, like in 2015 or 2016, but I quickly lost interest. There were no games I wanted to play. And this is still true today.

It's called an Obfuscation Virtual Machine running custom opcodes. These opcodes were decoded in a special way and a single x86 instruction like mov imm, reg would get translated in 20-30 instructions most of them junk, but they were n

Ah yes, right up my alley. Sort of. I spent many months reverse engineering a SC8 executable for fun, yep purely for fun. 10 years ago now. I have more experience with SecuROM 8. Did you guys know there is a hidden flag that is parsed on ex

I never understood selling of the company unless you've been working in it for 20 years. Like isn't the idea to be your own boss? And why sell it, if you don't have the next idea for the next business up and running? I don&#x

I still dread the fact that 15 inch laptops are the norm and not the exception for a 17 inch one.
