   The checksum is really interesting and would be useful even today. I have looked for the scripts but the links are all gone [1], unfortunately. EDIT: I have found it[2], finally. It's pretty sad that so much of the internet is getting

   If you are using ext4 there is extundelete that simplifies the process, it requires to remount the filesystem read-only, though. mount -o remount,ro /dev/sda1 extundelete --restore-all --after $(date -d "-1 hours"

   I'm on NixOS and QEMU is well integrated in Nix. You can write a system configuration, generate a QEMU VM and run it. Also all NixOS automatic tests[1] are running in QEMU VMs that are generated from a Nix configuration. The most beaut

   I would love to see IPFS used in projects like Nix, but in the current state it's downright impossibile. I have seen IPNS taking between 5-10 minutes to solve a single address and go-ipfs with a few pinned files taking more that 5GB of

   DNSCrypt has been around for a decade and works really well. Did everyone forget about it? It's objectively better than running DNS queries over HTTPS: still UDP based, no need to trust a CA but only the DNS server public key, can be c

   Mainly increasing the complexity: it usually requires moving the files to three different locations and handling the migration from the old location.

   I have been fighting this but I gave up: people just don't care or are somewhat opposed, even when presented with a backword compatible patch. Now I just mount the home directory with rewritefs and try make the mess more or less compli

    Check how unique your fingerprint is using panopticlick[1] and try to fix it by adopting more common settings. Also don't use Firefox Focus: it has telemetry and shares data with a third party[2]. Use the german version[3] if you must,

    In the worst case the ISP will give you a /64 prefix which you can complete to form an IPv6 address via SLAAC. Operating systems will generate many different temporary addresses with a short lifetime and use those for outbound connecti

    I'm a bit concerned about using it yet because it was written from scratch just about three months ago and probably hasn't gone through enough testing.

    Also fish stores the current directory along the command in history; so in ~/src/project the completion will show first commands you typed here rather than ~ or some other directory. This is incredibly useful.

    It certainly cannot be trusted given stuff like this happens on a regular basis. See the next one coming: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1446404

    They have some pretty useful properties. For example every polynomial of degree n has exactly n complex roots and if a complex-valued function is differentiable wrt a complex variable then it's also infinitely differentiable and analyt

    Is there a documentation of what its capabilities are? I can't find anything specific about it.

    I think the specification has a problem if a conformant implementation has a problem, particularly if it's a security one. There should be as little as possible left free to the implementors. The KRACK attack from a couple months ago i

    To make things worse there is an increasing number of games running DRMs like Denuvo and VMProtect that cause a significant performance hit. I think these will be more heavily affected by the patch.

    A legitimate signature would be a sequence of actions the client sends the server that are clearly not possible to have been performed by an actual user playing the game. Like an incredibly improbable statistic or too fast actions or someth

    I have no idea why but there are video games (even fairly recent ones) that requires the compatibility profile. No Man's Sky and Dying Light for example.
