My thought too. They are not insecure because they won't be patched, they are just insecure. Even if patched, what's to say there are not 99 other vulnerabilities lurking, even in their supported products?

As you said in the article, the reason is performance and that stands even if a realloc implementation is not poor. It can't preallocate, so when adding many items it will make many expensive realloc calls that could have been avoided.

Popular allocators will indeed grow your allocation in-place without moving when possible. This is essentially the same as if you'd tracked it yourself in your vector and grown it once in a while, though it will work with bytes instead

It supports keeping long term history so you can find a page you visited years ago from the history search in the address bar. Chrome/Google likes when you have to search for it and Brave has inherited that.

And XFS will at unexpected shutdowns sometimes leave you with files that previously contained data now being 0 bytes. I only really trust ZFS on Linux, but it's such a bother it can't be upstreamed and isn't fully integrated

That could perhaps be a useful if you had just enough memory to run a game, if not for other processes using it too. In that case background services should be written to swap while running the game which will probably cause stutters. Doing

Instead try for example "washing machine motor" and you'll find it's a feature fixing issues with clarity, not a style preference.

mimalloc is cleaner but lacks the very useful profiling features. To be fair it also has not gone through decades of changes as described in the postmortem either.

Last I checked Redis used their own fork of jemalloc. It may not even be updated to the latest release.

Both Asus software and customer support is atrocious and always has been.

What kind of incidents, if you don't mind?

Are you certain that CVEs are a good indicator?

Not quite static. Hitman and Red Faction comes to mind, years before Half-Life 2. Still, it was groundbreaking.

Is forking a well defined term? Doubt it will hold up in court.

It seems an attacker can combat that defense by just running more nodes.

Oh well, it was probably just a crash in my Internet connected software where users can just sent inputs to be processed on my machine. RCE would have been worse than file system bugs, as it leads directly to a superset of problems includin

Server class hardware will let you choose. Other varies. Some will let you choose to always start on power, some won't. "Restart on power loss" should cover your use case, since you don't shut down the computer gracefull

It's more secure because it's resistant to MITM attacks or a compromised host. Because the password is sent, the private key isn't.

Are you upset? Can't do nothing about it? It even made a headline or even just a thread on a forum? That's reason enough for some. It could easily be a teenager with no better excuse than not having a fully developed brain and no

Possibly just use the one from Brotli since it's already standardized. If it's any good then the work is mostly already done, right?
