Oh, rents in Paris are sky high regardless. Renting is also super difficult because landlords are terrified of tenants. It’s just easier to compare the high-end of the market because offering is similar and concentrated in central areas, wh

How come rents for high-end real estate in Paris are vastly higher than in London? Sales prices on the other hand are vastly lower. Are the prices so high because people in Paris are willing to pay much higher rents more people in London?

Surely it's the other way around. The renter has far more freedom, they can easily pack up their things and go. The renter has also has far fewer responsibilities than the owner.

Nothing wrong with renting, economies of scale make it cheaper than owning unless the government decides to ruin everything. (London vs Paris is a great example of this)

Uploading linux malware on Virustotal mostly results in it being scanned by Windows AVs. Many will have basic signature detection for common Linux malware, but heuristic detection is essentially nonexistent.

The Linux equivalent of fileless malware on Windows would be a python script you pipe straight into the interpreter. The whole purpose of “fileless” malware is to not get caught by AV which will alert on a new files being created and execut

You could maybe reasonably call this “fileless” if it was calling memfd from python. But even then - memfd does leave the file descriptor dangling and accessible in /proc/, it’s not much better than just dropping your file in

Too tame? That’s odd, generally Russians make a far more intense style of Mustard than Dijon. Zakuson is a quite good Russian style mustard, widely available because it’s made in Canada.

The real mustard disaster is just how hard it has become to get good Russian/Ukrainian mustard, Dijon simply doesn’t cut it.

How are “The staff at the charter jet terminal” supposed to address this? Those are the people GP called “criminally clueless”, suggesting that the lack of pre-departure controls for private jets will cause the next 9/11.
