It's worse: there are regulations (called "sanctions" and "KYC") that force companies to pull the rug.

I also think that the "self-hosted" requirement is an over-reach. It would be sufficient to require some standardized commodity that can, in principle, be self-hosted, but is available in an equivalent form from multiple unaffilia

Just as well, it should be illegal to advertise a connection with only a single dynamic /64 of IPv6 as an "Internet connection".

Imakefile found, where a plain old Makefile could be sufficient. Yuck, another dependency on an obsolete piece of software (imake/xmkmf).

Say "I am a foreigner; please don't waste your money on ads that I can't even act upon." They don't have your identity, so they deserve a fake one.

> Antivirus software has to have full access to every part of your system so it can scan and remove things. Removal/quarantining of bad files does require elevated privileges, but just scanning and warning, no. Let's take ClamA

The article is a bit one-sided: it reviews the topic only from the aspect of rendering PDFs using a copy of pdf.js embedded in a web browser. However, this is not the only copy of pdf.js. It would be interesting to check software like NextC

Yes. You are missing out on information security auditor complaints. They are happy now because your server complies with one more bullet point (in particular, 3.7, "Disable IPv6") from the CIS benchmark: https://github

Predicted outcome: piracy websites will use non-US CDNs which would make them impossible to block (due to DoH making DNS-level blocks non-working and thus obsolete) without causing a lot of collateral damage. Something similar has already h

And after that, an information security auditor from a cyber insurance company comes and says: "sorry, you have to delete all of that, our automation that checks for insecure settings only supports the real AD".

In the meanwhile, in the Philippines, I had to buy Microsoft Office for my company's treasurer who, so far, used LibreOffice successfully. The reason is that the only officially approved application for submitting the "alphalist&q

You confuse ACLs and xattrs. SAMBA uses Extended Attributes to store thinks like Hidden and System flags on files, so that Windows clients can manipulate them. NT ACLs, too.

The https://opencorporates.com/ site is also useful for finding companies registered using a stolen identity or a fake address that matches yours. In the past, I was a victim of some bad guys registering a shell company usi

This is not something that a unit test can catch. First, this 100% coverage rule applies to the program/library code, and only to the subset that is not ifdeffed out (otherwise, you will not be able to have, e.g., Windows-specific code

Well - that would be exactly the point of the attacker. GCC errors out, and it does not matter whether this is because the intentionally typoed header does not exist or because non-English characters are not allowed. Errors encountered duri

Mixtral 8x7b runs well (i.e., produces the correct output faster than I can read it) on a modern AMD or Intel laptop without any use of a GPU - provided that you have enough RAM and CPU cores. 32 GB of RAM and 16 hyperthreads are enough wit

Let me add: for services like GitHub that never log you out, 2FA is pure security theater. The only factor in this case is a browser cookie.

I would say that the "generic desktop app" approach is to be avoided. The reason is that there is a strictly better alternative that targets almost the same audience. By implementing a TOTP generator as a desktop browser extension

You can, if you are in the target audience. I have a monitor running at 200% scale, and the scaled screenshots do not show much difference. Scaling the browser tab to 50% does reveal it.

I think that the switch will happen when somebody advances Weston (or any other compositor that has a single-app full-screen mode) so that running Xfce on Xwayland on Weston becomes possible and indistinguishable from Xorg.

And that's good: anything that has a theoretical basis is definitely not new physics. And we are talking about new physics here. The same could be said about special relativity or quantum mechanics in the past.
