This is a great idea and I wish it success. Self-hosting shouldn't be a nightmare of researching and setting up 20 different applications. Is there something similar in progress for a "tech company tech stack"? As in, rather

Generally, I've seen courts derive this kind of right from general rights like "the state cannot just arbitrarily kill or maim you", which (hopefully) are explicitly written down. So it doesn't feel that unreasonable to

You should interact with government sites more. I'm sure you'll love it when you finally found the time and motivation to do something about the bureaucratic task you've been procrastinating for weeks and then get told that t

Unless they've gotten a license to do it, it's a crystal clear copyright violation, generally done under the assumption/hope that an entity that has abandoned selling the game has also abandoned caring about enforcing its cop

I would be in the market for Europe-based static hosting and am glad that more European services are popping up, but this has one massive drawback: Unpredictable cost (unless you manually set a limit with support, then it presumably changes

The fine doesn't have to be higher than the company's profit to matter. If it's bigger than the profit from keeping the data and significant enough to warrant allocating resources to care about it (tens of millions might be e

If there was some kind of fixed minimum compensation - even a single dollar per affected person - and strict liability (doesn't matter how you allegedly did everything to protect the data, if it leaked it's on you), companies woul

No one will invest even after Android is closed. The Android/iPhone duopoly is nearly impossible to break because very few people want to carry two personal phones, and it takes only one app that they can't do without being only a

Even if it isn't an attack, you demonstrated how it could be one. The vulnerability is likely there and worth mitigating. Excellent investigation and write-up!

Or someone somehow got into one web interface (e.g. by popping a random workstation used to monitor all these sites) and clicked buttons.

Running certbot on your web server is easy. Running certbot on a random PLC isn't happening.

My guess would be something like the CA using some feature that was newer than what the equipment would support (e.g. ECC signatures but the equipment only supporting RSA), not an intentional "no real CAs" decision.

The Osprey is air refuelable though, isn't it? Each flight is roughly one pound per person on board. It's also roughly 2800 nautical miles from Kuwait to Diego Garcia, so regardless of where the carrier group is, it should be at m

If a scam ad is found, at the very least, require them to disclose business records to show how much money the scam ad made (revenue, not profit), and make them repay it. Leave it up to the platform whether to recoup the paid-out share from

Not just the networks (although preferably also the networks) but also the publishers. If a newspaper took money to advertise blatant, obvious scams, I assume a judge would consider them at least partially responsible for restitution, if

Depending on how old/exotic the format is, universities or libraries might have drives that you might be able to access (retrocomputing groups too, of course, but those aren't as common).

These changes were often not driven by the "green" parties though.

Best the corresponding parties can do is banning plastic straws (no impact but feels great) and massive bureaucratic hurdles for air conditioning in private homes (because it's an "unnecessary luxury" and if your apartment is

The binary decision into which walled garden you allow yourself to be locked in depends on more than one factor, and you don't really have a choice of "neither" nowadays.

With banks I kind of understand it (for key storage/strong biometric authentication), even though the inability to move it to a new phone is a major pain especially on Android (not sure if some banking apps transfer on iOS, on Android,

Push notifications are the most likely abuse vector but are gated behind a separate permission. I think they locked down installed apps, and fingerprinting isn't really relevant if they can just set a cookie. Acceleration is also avail

That would be my intuition, but can you elaborate what specifically the app (if not given extra permissions) can do? Assuming the user doesn't change settings, web sites (at least if used semi regularly) can store a persistent cookie,

"Never let an abuser take you to a secondary location": It's OK to offer an app, but if a site is pushing, pressuring or forcing you to get one, it's almost certainly because they want to do something abusive that they

If Amazon was competent and saw that as a problem (doubtful, given how hard it is to filter items that actually ship to your country, as opposed to claiming to do so but then on the checkout page tell you otherwise), they could likely bul

I'm surprised that was necessary. A single look at the EU website leaves no doubt that the EU is perfectly capable to create a bureaucratic nightmare all by itself (and incapable not to even if it tried).

by tgsovlerkhgsel 1mo ago
Exactly, that's why I think it's hilarious that the EU itself is doing it. Clearly it's just incompetence not malice, but...

EU web sites are such an epitome for the EU as a whole: Inscrutably bureaucratic. Instead of a FAQ page that starts with, you know, the FAQ, the actual information is hidden in a PDF download. Once you click it, there is another popup to co
