> You can't re-arrange sub-windows with the mouse (drag). Just a nit-pick: You can configure that with tmux (and possibly screen, I don't know). It has the downside that the user n…

No, there is no such paragraph. The German constitution guarantees freedom of opinion - not speech. So you can’t get prosecuted for disliking someone (and saying so) but you can fo…

Here in Germany early college math classes were mostly a rehash of everything from school, but with much more rigor and sometimes more detail. So I'd recommend some college textboo…

This bug is a year old, and Firefox Preview / Fenix has in the meantime gained support for uBlock. Considering that's mentioned as motivation for native support, I'm not sure this …

The standard python linters can do it: $ flake8 foo.py foo.py:6:14: F821 undefined name 'q' $ mypy --check-untyped-defs foo.py foo.py:6: error: Name 'q' is not defined (They also h…

openssl can also do it. no dirlisting though. openssl req -x509 -newkey rsa:4096 -keyout /tmp/key.pem -out /tmp/cert.pem -nodes && openssl s_server -WWW -port 8443 -cert /tmp/cert.…

As someone who regularly needs to report security vulnerabilities to projects hosted on Github, I find it incredibly annoying that I can't create one of these 'maintainer advisorie…

No 'background checks' by private investigators in Germany. Some employers ask for a police certificate of conduct. There's a law saying which kind of convictions are listed there …

I've seen a lot of criticism of this approach - hiding vulnerabilities, instead of actually fixing them. Other mitigations actually prevent exploits (e.g. the combination of NX and…

My understanding is that in your 2nd scenario (contractor), the tax/social security authorities might at some point decide that this is Scheinselbständigkeit, and therefore it's ac…

Airlines made a business of that, too: with 'priority boarding' you get into the plane first, when the overhead compartments still have enough space. And some airlines (Ryanair) on…

They aren't really comparable. While IDA has some debugging features, it's all about static analysis. It has features for browsing and annotating code - you can view the code as a …

Tea! It's literally water with taste. If you don't like hot beverages, make it iced. If you don't want to make some all the time, use a bigger kettle.

Wikipedia says that MINIX is POSIX-certified, so it's pretty close (Unix-like). It doesn't seem anyone has shelled out the money for SUS certification, so it can't officially use t…

The sharpie thing might actually be someone trying to "reserve" a scooter for themselves. (Take a picture of the code before making it unreadable, then the scooter always stays whe…

(I got these at a Google thing at DEF CON.) Both work with Firefox on Linux, without any Google software. Haven't yet found non-Google software on Android (Lineage) that can talk t…

Any phone has enough computing power to just bruteforce a 32bit value in order to recover the original IPv4 address from a normal cryptographic hash in a practical timeframe.

The volatile modified on a pointer tells the compiler that reads and writes to it can have side-effects -- it is meant for memory-mapped hardware registers. Because of those (presu…

Mmap uses page faults instead of syscalls to read more data. Both these mechanisms require switching to the kernel and back, so it's not clear to me why it should be less affected …

For the first one, it's probably that they don't allow search engines to crawl their site: http://cts-labs.com/robots.txt The other domain does appear on Google for me.

There are some Frida scripts running around for this purpose. However I don't have any personal experience with them, so I have no idea how reliable they work.

I can somewhat forgive C for picking a syntax that turned out to be a bad idea. (Even if possibly some prior programming language made a better choice.) Java, on the other hand, co…
