The world is consuming the entire vaccine production supply already. The economic disparity is causing very difficult problems in allocation, but it's beyond ridiculous to suggest that the fight against COVID has a capital problem. &qu

I have some archive data stored on GELI drives; this is a welcome development. Yes, ZFS has encryption, but it comes necessarily along with the rest of ZFS. GELI is a much more straightforward way to deliver an encrypted block device compar

I will echo the other sentiment here about the lack of support for anything other than RSA keys in various products that have SSH tooling is both maddening and absurd considering that it's just a string that's passed around. Micro

Towing ratings are given in lbs but you have to remember that is a "full system" number which includes the load on the hitch, the tongue weight, and (the usual limiting factor) the ability for the vehicle to reasonably accelerate

The cool thing about EVs is that they have an instantaneous power meter in them, so there really is no need to speculate. The following numbers roughly correspond to my 2017 Model S: At 30mph the car consumes approximately 200Wh/mi (6k

Another way to say this is that Bitcoin's value comes entirely from the sunken cost fallacy. It is a war of consumption. Whoever can waste the most resources and/or produce them the most cheaply will gain the most economic benefit

NRPT has worked fine for me on regular Win10 clients ever since I first started configuring it about 18 months ago. With the exception of apps like Firefox being configured for DNS-over-HTTP and bypassing the OS resolver entirely, it works

No; support is baked into the default OS resolvers if you like, but obviously you can also use outbound software to achieve it too. The stuff in /etc/resolv.conf have not been "the whole story" in Linux name resolution e

Windows has NRPT which is mature and works across all applications. It actually appears to be rather more capable in some ways as compared to what systemd resolver or macOS can do. I have been using it with regular Win10 clients for about 1
