My buddy did 438 in his P85. If he had the P85D I bet he could have hit 500 easy.

Which is why I'm on board. I hope others take note so the "right to security and privacy" isn't only within reach of those who can afford Apple devices.

Not a chance. They're trying to position themselves as the security and privacy focused player in the industry.

Wow, thank you for reminding me about this. Totally forgot it existed. There were other common ones, especially an echo test and a tone generator. Useful for folks in the phone repair industry.

I think it's unlikely they would fork from the upstream FreeBSD kernel that much without contributing ASLR back. They would end up having to repeat it all again for Playstation 5. Stranger things have happened, though.

Probably has to do a lot with timing. At the time of your report, the Security Officer was DES. Life happened, and he wasn't able to keep up or respond to events as quickly. As of June, Xin Li (previously Deputy Security Officer) has t

Capsicum is part of FreeBSD itself so it doesn't have to be listed separately in the list of Open Source Software. I'm also surprised anyone thought it was using ASLR -- it's a huge effort to get that completed and working sa

I don't know, but I would assume it's similar to setting CPUTYPE in your make.conf so binaries are built with some cpu-specific asm for your specific flavor of x86 CPU: you'll get a performance boost, but nothing mind-blowing

It looks like he wants written data to stay on disk until it is read out, which sockets wouldn't do. I don't feel comfortable with his approach though. Maybe I just don't "get" his problem. edit: I was also thinking

I agree. Take Wisconsin as an example. The culture here is heavily drinking based. If you haven't visited, you won't understand. Meeting friends/family/coworkers/strangers? At a bar/pub. 7 days a week. Complete

Only for some kernel modules because a few occasionally have an issue but generally they're not supposed to. Otherwise FreeBSD is backwards compatible. You can run FreeBSD 2.0 binaries and libraries just fine if you want. There's

Poorly and unconvincingly addresses. Same argument we've seen over and over -- now in a nice clean FAQ! Doesn't change the design problems. Just tries to hide them behind half-truths and "but there's nothing better...&qu
