What makes you think that system was implemented securely?

Interesting. The bulletin lists "OpenWrt 19.07, 21.02 (for MT6890)" as vulnerable, but OpenWRT had indeed no security advisory out for this: https://openwrt.org/advisory/start Maybe MediaTek has shipped some

I live next to a highway on-ramp. The motorcycles are the worst, some of them are so loud while accelerating that it is impossible to have a conversation on my yard, over a hundred meters away. The city is now investing tens of millions of

But that's not what this case was about. Throughout the trial they have been allowed to provide continued digital access to the scanned books, granted they operate like a library (each borrowed book is backed by a physical copy.) The c

Yes, but this case was not about digital presevation but lending out scanned traditional books without proper controls, presented as some sort of a social welfare project. Choose your battles.

Ditto. Worth also noting is that IA lost the case by summary judgement. This usually means that the legal matter was so clear that the judge didn't even see a reason to start a trial. This judgement has now been confirmed on appeal. Ju

As far as I know, the companies / service providers would love to be able tell their customers that 100% of their data is only stored and processed in the EU. It makes everything GDPR-related simpler for companies, and could be turned

Close. About four of them, or a single 40-track one (the standard one has 10 tracks/lanes.)

27 meter diameter in fact. A 27-meter sphere is about 150 times as voluminous as a 5-meter sphere. It's still a mind bogglingly small amount considering that humans have spared no toil, sweat and blood on industrial scale gold mining e

You're excused. After all, the original comment failed to use the correct SI unit (BPa).

The implementation is literally just one style on the page: * { font-family: monospace !important } You can use e.g. Tampermonkey to inject this style on https://www.google.com/search *: https://www.tampermonkey.n

This is really cool! One thing I noticed: in the game there are tasks like print the second line and print the seventh line. But both of those lines are empty. So technically e.g. a non-matching grep is a correct solution. :)

CrowdStrike installs as an operating system driver. It becomes essentially a part of the operating system and can do literally anything it wants, and Microsoft can not do much anything about it. Going forward, I could foresee Microsoft requ

Maybe they have rolled back the update and Windows boxes in Europe are no longer pulling it?

Why on earth don't they have staged rollouts for updates?

Even if it means the attack takes 10x as long, it doesn't seem to be limited by bandwidth, only time. Might not take long before the bots appear that try to automatically exploit this on scale.

Even systems with 15 years of legacy and eons of manhours behind them get replaced. These projects do not always succeed but I've seen it happen. A rewrite from scratch doesn't need full parity with the old system as long as you c

It would probably relate to this event: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2014_Vrb%C4%9Btice_ammunition_... At least Wikipedia already treats the involvement of Russian intelligence as a fact.

It might be based on the handwriting standards used in your country. Where I live we were taught at school to draw a horizontal bar on 7 and avoid the serif on 1: https://is.mediadelivery.fi/img/468/a93c32e08dae4

Collecting the dictionary of all swear words for all languages and their dialects might be less trivial. Keeping it up to date would probably take an institute worth of researchers.
