Check out the Microsoft baseline security guidelines for Windows 11. It's about 400 entries. 400 settings that Microsoft themselves recommend changing from the defaults to achieve a baseline security. Why does windows 11 show stock val

Memory safety or type safety are the least of Kerberos' issues. The protocol itself is fundamentally flawed.

You can just use FoxyProxy instead of a separate browser instance. This firefox addon will use a proxy based on URL patterns.

How do they do that? Either they 1) transfer your entire data to your system before searching, 2) use shoddy cryptography, or 3) you have to expose your private key to them. I doubt it's 1).

A good moment to point out that the infamous "cyber bunker", a data center catering to criminals, was infiltrated by a female police officer who managed to get hired as a cleaning lady. https://en.wikipedia.org/wik

I travel a lot to many different places including small villages. I'd like to take advantage of a rewards program, but the places I travel to often don't have one of the large chains. These booking services allow me to get bonus p

Is there a way to slow down using fusion bombs? Even if you manage to bring thousands of fusion bombs with you? Sounds like this is only a sensible approach for sending probes, which will then zip by their target at huge speeds.

It's more likely that someone screwed up on the test, or that he cheated somehow. Maybe he's articulate and good at solving logic puzzles, but his Wikipedia article clearly shows that the guy has a screw loose.

If you are asking the question whether UPF is bad, surely you got to control for the amount. Of course you can say that people tend to eat too much of UPF simply because it is easier to prepare and eat, but that doesn't mean it's

I was talking about scars. I wasn't the one who said tattoos are scars.

Just because something has been done for a long time doesn't mean it's good. We also shouldn't confuse self-mutilation with healthy activities like exercising simply because both "shape one's own body".

Getting scars on purpose is a quite questionable decision.

That's moving the goal post. I was specifically responding to concerns about fuzzy data. It's true that assumptions have to be made, and those can and should be questioned, but that wasn't the concern of the comment I replied

https://phys.org/news/2020-06-dark-energy-expansion-cosmic.a... Check the first plot. Four different probes all agree on the same value. Well, used to, if this pans out. The blue one would be somewhere on the x axis no

Even if not, it's still worthwhile to explore everything as far as we can see.

That fuzziness can be quantified. It's called error bars. Whenever physicists perform a measurement, they always derive a confidence interval from the instruments they use. They take great care of accounting for the limits of each indi

The CMB and BAO measurements give us a picture of how the early universe looked. Supernovae are sensitive to the conditions in the late universe. All probes, which are mostly independent, always pointed at the same amount of dark energy. No

The CDM model has no dark energy, unlike the LCDM model. The L stands for Lambda, which is the dark energy term in the Einstein equations. So they are saying when accounting for this effect, our universe looks more like a universe without d

I don't think that's true. If it was that simple, there would be browser plugins or other apps that would replicate that behavior. Do you know of any?

Minkowski spacetime is the term in special relativity, i.e. the flat case, or zero curvature. In general relativity, spacetime is a pseudo Riemannian manifold, like the sibling comment says. Unlike Minkowski spacetime, it can be curved.
