The complaints about allocating a percentage of IPv6 addresses for certain usages are a bit silly. Yeah, 1.271% of the addresses are private addresses. IPv6 has 340 trillion trillion trillion possible addresses. IPv4 has 4.2 billion.

For my own purposes (coffee shops, basic geolocation stuff), I usually spun up a VPN server on Linode or something like that. You still run into a lot of issues (many services blacklist VPS provider ranges, including most streaming services

You can remove Microsoft's certs from the trust store used by the board, though. You can choose to keep them to facilitate dual boot with Secure Boot on, but you can also choose to eject them from the trust store. Sure, they're lo

Yeah, hemming and hawing over whether or not an x86/64 PC can disable Secure Boot in 2020 is a bit silly when it's been a certification requirement by Microsoft for ages

I actually really enjoyed learning about secure boot keys and TPMs and all when I was setting it up on my machine. Support for managing keys varies by board; some, especially older ones, don't let you do much, if at all, especially fro

You register an additional key, generated by you/the installer. Ubuntu automates it as part of setup, afaik Fedora doesn't but there are instructions for it. Ubuntu generates a key during installation, then requests UEFI register

I've seen some similar stuff with that too, yeah! Stuff like https://github.com/WAVM/WAVM is really cool, though I imagine this may be lighter (no LLVM dep)? You could also do something like a full system VM using

This is really, really interesting -- I've often wondered about how the accessibility space is meeting the needs of disabled programmers, especially after I briefly lost my vision due to an eye injury. The eye-tracking setup in particu

I like the idea of using it to provide a "safe" execution environment for untrusted C++. I imagine bochs or other similar user-mode emulation could also work, but this benefits from being smaller and thus having less of an attack

Factually speaking yes but practically speaking gay/straight people tend to be doubly touchy about their partner "playing for the other team" so to speak. Which... I mean, cheating is cheating is cheating lol

It eliminates a wide variety of sources of error, including user ignorance but also possible issues with colorblindness, poor lighting conditions, or a positive result that's not as easy to discern with the naked eye.

A disinfecting light that doesn't affect multicellular organisms sounds like a hospital's dream. I wonder what the principle behind it is.

This is interesting stuff! It's especially nice to see some more details behind the math -- I did some stuff with bloom filters for work and found that the math didn't always seem to line up with what we'd expect during tests

On the one hand, I do think it's silly that Apple is discriminating against this app, but I don't really buy the entire idea that a dislike of astrology is reflective of some sort of deeper bigotry. I'm a gay man of color mys
