Looks like someone might have been trying to prepare the ground for a hijack of 127.0.0.0/8...

It's fine to re-use your own work as long as you cite. If you don't site then you're plagiarising yourself.

Fascinating. I'd love to see a timeline of all these prefixes/suffixes. I suppose -GPT appears at the end...

The provider might notice that their key is being used in an unauthorized way and terminate your account, prosecute you for computer fraud and abuse, etc.

A container runtime could optimize for speed by unpacking all those layers one by one into a single lower directory for the container to use; but at the cost of using lots of disk space, since those layers would no longer be shared between

Interesting. Certainly with podman I observe that the layers are combined by overlayfs. I build this Dockerfile into a container with 'podman build -t test .': FROM registry.access.redhat.com/ubi9/ubi-minimal R

Hold on... Could this by why I hear a really loud buzzing sound when I connect my laptop to a thunderbolt docking station? The sound only happens for a fraction of a second, and doesn't happen every time; but now that you mention it,

Fond memories here of watching Babylon 5 on a Performa 5300 with an Apple TV Tuner Card. There was no antenna to the room with the computer, but I found that I was able to get an acceptable picture by holding the coax cable attached to the

How do you do this without needing to map a drive like it's 1990?

Unfortunately Bitcoin mainline no longer believes that BTC should be a peer to peer electronic cash system, and the result is crippling fees and a pathetic transaction rate.

polkit is just the layer that takes care of answering the question "is the caller authorized to do this action". It's not setuid. pkexec is setuid, it gets launched as root, asks polkit, and then does the thing the user asks

Maybe the announcement means "IPP Everywhere" instead of "IPP". That is the extensions to IPP that adds network discovery (via multicast DNS) and 'driverless' printing (by mandating that prints support standard

It will still start when you next boot up. 'systemctl disable --now unattended-upgrades.timer' will stop it now _and_ remove the symlink that starts it at boot.

For comparison, Red Hat denote every other major release of OpenShift (4.8, 4.10, 4.12) as Extended Update Support releases, with 2 years of support.

And to this day there is a mysterious 'bin' user on Linux systems that no one seems to use or know the purpose of. I wonder if another UNIX at some point added such a user in order to reserve '/usr/bin'...

Hm, not to be confused with the Linux Filesystem Hierarchy Standard: https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs.html ... which is referenced in hier(7) https://man7.org/linux/man-pages/m

A unique connection per host isn't too bad. But I have 12 connections for each of my desktops and laptops and phones and tablets... As you say the problem is somewhat caused by Apple ~~and Google~~ forcing apps to use their proprietary

Isn't this exactly what BlackBerry used to do? Privacy wise it's distasteful but it does work around a lot of IMAP's problems which still don't seem to have been fixed in the ~20 years that they've been known about.

Don't forget the network backbone for multiplayer game traffic. I'd love to see a "what has Steam ever done for us?" sketch produced :)
