As the article says, "It is undeniable that if your only defense is obscurity then you’re asking for trouble." Obscurity can be useful when overlaid onto stronger security. It's why are military tanks camouflaged and not pink

I'm not a fan of multiline prompts but I do like knowing where I am, so I trim the path and prepend a "…" character.

You could try Wireshark. Its primary focus is analyzing network packets, but it does support a few file formats and ELF is one.

It'd be nice if it had a tightly integrated issue tracker and CI.

No mention of `mt`? It's been a while since I needed to seek or eject a tape in earnest, yet there it is on all of my cloud instances.

It would be nice if you could use this as a simpler, more reliable frontend to YouTube Music.

It made applications portable in the "move it anywhere on the system" sense. I dimly recall dragging commonly-used applications to my desktop, particularly before support for aliases (similar to Windows shortcuts) was added.

People seem to be able to use Time Machine, which adds a time dimension to macOS' hierarchical file structure, just fine.

I can't speak for the GP, but Facebook became much less fun about a year ago when anti-mask disinformation started flooding in and I realized it was going to kill a lot of people. I haven't been on FB since then.

Setting up shop under a new name can be stomach-churningly daunting. Best of luck to Gregory and the rest of the team.

Is the kcap file format documented anywhere?

I don't think you need a special license. The owner(s) of the code just need to issue a statement that the code will be available under <license> as of <date>, similar to what Dan Bernstein did with qmail.

We're about to wrap up a conference dedicated to that very subject: https://sharkfestvirtual.wireshark.org/ . Session videos should be online soon.

There are two aspects of this that I run into: - Features that should arguably be built in require searching for, evaluating, and installing a plugin. - Some plugins spam you with a "What's New" page with each update. Bookmar

> Slightly OT: I wish people wouldn’t put such large license headers in source code. There's an ongoing effort to fix this: https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/2018/08/solving-license...

DCL is VMS's command line interface. Commands start with full-on verbs (set, copy, define, print, ...). You can use partial strings in commands as long as they are unique (e.g. "set def" instead of "set default"). I

I've been experiencing the same behavior here lately and take it as a hint to go do something else.

I do something similar, with a couple of convenience substitutions for commas and multiplication: $ math() { echo "scale=2 ; $ " | sed -e "s:x: :g" | sed -e "s:,::g" | bc; } $ math 5,382 x 48,927.3 263326728.6

Same here. Are there any classic Mac CSS themes available?

As do many cloud instances. I'm not sure about other distributions, but Debian and Ubuntu ship `mt` with their cpio packages.

It depends on what you mean by "Enterprise". My Windows development VM currently runs Server 2019, which doesn't have the issues described above.

Is there a way to suggest additions to the page? Wireshark supports WireGuard dissection and decryption[1], and the pcapng[2] file format has a block type defined for WireGuard secrets. [1] https://wiki.wireshark.org/WireGuar

It might be more useful to think of Brim in terms of "a different zoom level" than "better than". Wireshark focuses on showing as much detail as it can about every packet that you see. If you have a lot of packets this w

How much is enough to be harmful? According to the MSDS[1], the stuff I use is < 3% teflon, and a 6 oz bottle lasts me the better part of a decade. [1] https://www.paintdocs.com/docs/webPDF.jsp?SITEID=TRIFLOW&pro.

Tri-Flow. It's a lightweight oil + teflon, and doesn't evaporate like WD-40. It's marketed primarily to the cycling community, but I tend to use it where most people would use WD-40 (fixing squeaky hinges, loosening bolts, et
