Why is DPI still being brought up? And what was wrong in my message? With timing you keep track of the volume and... timing, which (often) allows you to correlate the entering and exiting traffic...

being a democracy does not guarantee that everything you do is correct

Yeah, but there's no need of "knowing all the variables in the system" and there's no "last time something like that was possible", it's always been possible. And you get the "packet information"
904.
by g-b-r 2y ago
No, you just need to observe the timings, and only of the first and last segments of the communication Western nations will probably have access to them in most cases, at least for traffic originating and ending in one of them

There must be a terrorist plot to destroy Europe with water bottles. We're not told about it to protect the sources, but yeah it's clearly so. In Italy you have to relinquish your bottle caps to enter concerts, which is inte

The bad news for us is that plenty of cryptographic (or otherwise critical) code is already written in C or C++, and when compiler writers play with their optimizations, they cause real-world problems to a good portion of the population

(F-droid still attests that apps are as much as possible free from proprietary parts and, for non-reproducible builds , protects from rogue updates from the apps' developers)
913.
by g-b-r 2y ago
The apps are still built by the individual developers, but IzzyOnDroid now supports multiple independent verification builders. So, you get a significant amount of F-Droid's advantages without F-Droid's delays

He's just probably unfit to serve four more years, and for sure was too unlikely to beat Trump
917.
by g-b-r 2y ago
It sure seems like there are better chances with him gone; but yeah, he might have already given Trump the presidency by waiting so long (and for running for this election in the first place)
918.
by g-b-r 2y ago
Not in his best form doesn't mean unfit for president. But yeah, it might be better if he steps down, especially if the candidate will be Kamala Harris

Even with hiding whitespace changes, the differences often don't get recognized correctly. Rather then misleading, the diffs are much harder to check, instead of showing that only white space changed (or in general, rather than highlig

Interesting, unfortunately format-patch does not support merge commits though.

> I prefer the exact opposite approach personally: no merge commits, only rebases and fast-forward merges to master I know that many do, unfortunately. It's a legacy of how git was used initially, I guess, and of the use of e-mail f

PLEASE, recognize that "atomic" commits as the author defines them (basically whole features), will actually jumble up a large part of the diff, however much advanced your diff program is, making verifying the changes a lot harder

Maybe this whole cryptographic stuff has some use, but all that which was needed was for GitHub to declare when a file was uploaded manually and when by a workflow (specifying which workflow). This looks so complex that it might well be jus

GitHub release builds provide no whatsoever guarantee of having been built by GitHub from the corresponding source, if I remember correctly
