I think we are interpreting the term "Commanders" differently then. (Speaking about the Army NG) we have Commanders (who exercise command authority) at every level all the way from Company (60 to 300 soldiers) up to Division (10K

The leadership of the police agencies involved should absolutely be investigated. The National Guard, on the other hand, you seem to be misinformed about its status. Most of us work regular ass jobs full time just like everyone else here an

Six policeman are unlikely to be able to hold a crowd like that back. They were probably told to fall back to concentrate their forces elsewhere. Removing the barriers prevents injury to the crowd. The Capitol Police seemed to be very ill p

Guerilla warfare only works if the guerillas can hide among a sympathetic populace or in a remote area. The former seems unlikely (how many Americans are really willing to risk life or freedom for Trump) and the latter is largely ineffect

> people of Schleswig still tell of icy silence. They do? I've spent time in both Kiel and Flensburg and I've seen no indication that anyone would prefer Danish rule. It seems a moot point today with the EU anyway.

Filled out. What do you intend to do with the survey results?

Thanks for the reply. I imagine I could tag them somehow and fuzzy find on the tag or a tagged subset. I'm actually looking at the Nyxt browser now also. I'm a freelancer, so I regularly switch between various active projects or f

You're welcome! Yes, it's quite problematic and there are numerous ways malicious code can abuse the sandboxed environment. That's great news about that article! Thanks for pointing that out. https://news.ycombinat

Thanks for sharing your project. I'm a long time Qutebrowser user (and Vimperator/Pentadactyl, etc. before it) and fascinated by the possibilities of Emacs style extensibility for browsing. It's a shame that you all haven&#x2

I'm not involved either, but after doing some reading it seems the project aims to create a completely customizable browsing interface for power users that would be impossible with extensions because of the limitations that Firefox&#x2

Good idea. You could also access your bank and other sensitive sites with a different profile: google-chrome --user-data-dir="/path/to/somewhere/else" I use this switch and a directory from `mktemp -d`

DANGER, Will Robinson! I could really use something like the Great Suspender. However, looking into it, I found quite a bit of controversy surrounding its new (since June) "maintainer". This issue sums it up well: "SECURITY:

That's interesting. I've been looking at EXWM recently as I expand my emacs usage (I've been using XMonad for about 10 years). How do you group related tabs together? Or is this somehow not necessary? Have you noticed a signi

This always trips me up when I run `docker exec` to get a shell in a container that is based on Alpine. "/bin/bash" is too far ingrained in muscle memory.

Happy CAC user here. I would love to see them as common as driver's licenses. Maybe then we could do away with SSNs as a secret identifier.

This time WASM promises to be as widespread as JavaScript (no plugins needed) and can be targeted by many languages. Having all the major browser vendors on board helps a lot. I, for one, am greatly looking forward to kicking JS and all its

As a Gentoo/Funtoo user, I feel like we can solve this problem with better security by running applications in Docker. See Funtoo's approach to Steam for example. https://www.funtoo.org/Steam
