Another independent maintainer would have helped too. Many eyes make bugs shallow, but just one extra genuine maintainer would have helped enormously. Clearly the existing maintainer trusted the attacker completely, but a second maintainer

Your "product" is what you sell. The owners of redis labs don't sell redis, they sell hosting, as far as I can see, in which case they made themselves a competitor to AWS, Azure, etc. And they don't have a competitive ad

You don't have to throw it away. You can give it away. Your gift displaces for some time the purchase of a new item. This still proves the point that you should aim to buy products where the consumable components are repairable and whe

bypass paywall clean is excellent. And you can use it on your phone, at least if you have the relative freedom of Android. You need firefox nightly, which allows any extension to be added; other versions of Firefox limit add-ons to a curate

Use a 2fa app with backups, or one that syncs to different devices (e.g. authy). It's distributed TFA. The phone number is not very secure, so I don't think it should be a part of TFA. I therefore agree that it is unwise to allow

I reluctantly decided that my MacBook days were over with these 2016 machines. But moving to linux was a huge step. So I bought a $360 2011 ThinkPad W520. A quad core laptop (with 32gb ram capacity). To experiment. Well, it was a dream mach

Me too. I wanted to move to a quad core. I was ready to get the new 15" but 16gb? My son has a hand-me-down 2010 MacBook Pro with 16gb. Anyway now I have a P50 quad core, with a 95whr battery, 7w idle power consumption, expandable to 3

I have it working with two DP monitors and the laptop screen. But this only works in XFCE not Unity, even though I use lightdm with XFCE. Optimus actually probably would have worked out of the box except that I added a brightness control xo

I bought a $360 Thinkpad w520 quad core mostly to see if I could move from linux in VMs to it being a daily driver. That was two weeks ago. I'm amazed at how well it works: this laptop has a nightmare graphics setup (Nvidia Optimus) bu
