I’m not sure my drinking glasses are a place I really need “modern” and “new” and “whatever the opposite of functional” is. It’s a glass for drinking liquid out of. There is no innovation. There is no novel design yet to be found. It’s an a

What? If the browser doesn’t support directly accessing USB hardware, it’s impossible to write a driver for it? Someone should tell the 25+ year old USB devices I use that their drivers are actually impossible.

Downloaded files that are not executable or contains any executables in their archives don’t receive the quarantine bit. Non-quarantined executables don’t even require the ad-hoc signing as far as I know. It’s there to prevent lateral movem
