It's cool, but does the extra speed matter? My eyeballs cannot differentiate 0.5ms vs 5 ms. That said, I'm pretty happy with fasd.

Not to mention that it's really confusing if the username is numeric, but the uid != uname. I guess that's why the old debian set uid to uname in this case.

Actually it doesn't restore FAT even if you win :) Check out: https://imgur.com/a/jru1vRn

Even if it comes from the NSA it doesn't necessarily mean it's backdoored. Speck is a good algorithm for performance constrained devices. It was removed from the kernel since it couldn't be included into Android systems due t

Wireguard is awesome, but the kernel module is so far a mess. If you're paranoid I wouldn't rely on it until the code has been cleaned up and perhaps audited.

You can buy a raspberry pi zero which has the same functionality.

119F was the ambient temperature not the temperature of the rain. So nobody's head got scalded from the hot raindrops.

You have to be careful though; it's easy to get gallstones if you regularly fast and don't flush you're gallbladder with fatty foods afterwards.

It's baffling to me why they don't implement arbitrary precision arithmetic. bc (a calcuator for unix) can do that since 1975 :)

Any reason why these charcters cannot be revoked if nobody uses them?

Isn't everything reversible if enough information is stored? Instead of COPY [A, B] -> [A, A]; you could have [A, B, 0] -> [A, A, B] which saves the value of B.

Businesses had plenty of time to prepare for it though.

No shit, Sherlock. You can log in with the default password.

This is what I've thought about too. Could the article's observations attributed to the friendship paradox? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Friendship_paradox

I'm not so sure. I think boredom is the biggest factor, so Netflix is probably the cause. For example the Indian government once tried offering electricity in rural areas to lower child birth rates. "If there is electricity in eve

It's also similar to the Old Hungarian alphabet. Some of the symbols seem to be the same. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Hungarian_alphabet

I wonder whether this could be used to crack face id.

That's not what the parent meant. You shuffle the array with e.g. Fisher-Yates and then create a permutation from the shuffled array. That always gives a permutation that has one cycle. What you did was create a permutation from the or

Hmm. It seems that these chat applications are more and more becoming like a polished webmail system. Now they've introduced threads, it's searchable forever, you can mail erm. I mean send messages to individuals or even groups. T

The site also seems to flag RSA host keys. Using SHA1 in this case shouldn't be a security issue since the hash is calculated as SHA1(SHA2(x)) and you would need to break SHA2 as well. [1] [1] - https://stribika.github.io&#x

There is also Power Gray which sounds really cool

Yes, but the key difference is that chrome uses a randomly generated domain name, while the ransomware has it hardcoded.

I would be interested in seeing VM hypervisors (Xen, QEMU etc) and also power consumption for rkt.

It's worth mentioning that on some systems it's possible to permanently disable the management engine and the MEBx extension BIOS by selecting the "Permanently Disable" option from BIOS.

I'm pretty sure that they buy a lot of these exploits as well. If you can trust the NSA, I don't think that keeping the exploits secret is such a big deal. There are other damaging vulnerabilities that even the state actors doesn&

Exactly. They could replace notepad++.exe or install a rootkit or do it in a zillion other ways. I think this change was made so that already wiretapped people could detect this and to "calm" the public since the CIA is `OMG hacki
