    If you were interested in intelligence, and you wanted to maintain that pipeline of intelligence, would you give up that information? Act in plain sight and do good, and you’ll be …

    SSL alone is not enough to protect data. Any proxy could act as a MIM, so someone using a malicious fork of Stealth may cause problems. But, the net is like this already. One site …

    Is Chromium’s sandbox insecure? Electron has local file access, etc. in fact, it states: “Under no circumstances should you load and execute remote code with Node.js integration en…

    If the network isn’t free and data is centralized, one day you think you have it all and the next you could have nothing. Tor pretends to be secure, but is dark and compromised. Th…

    Calling it “moving to the cloud” has such pompous overtones. They stopped giving away access to their source for free, just like the majority of the rest of their community. Atlass…

    Definitely. Windows got worse after XP, mostly with 8. Why did they move things around and setup multiple ways of doing things? Gnome got worse after v2, and what was Ubuntu thinki…

    Security is hardware level first, at multiple levels. So, I don’t think we’ll get it back, at least until eternal love beats evil.

    I want old pre-AppStore OSX/macOS that doesn’t nanny my installs or screw old drivers, with a good package manager, and easily tabbed and gridded terminal windows without tmux nece…

    I’m with you that it’s a serious problem. If it weren’t, Amazon and others wouldn’t be working so hard on AI to combat the AI or human that’s beaten their AI. Those aren’t “fake ac…

    There are no fake accounts. There are only accounts or not. There are no sockpuppet bloggers; those are called bloggers. If you go down the fake road, you have to realize real news…

    If the author were to release the source and GPL it, that’d be more helpful to everyone than pointing it at Reddit.

    If it’s not by default there’s a reason. Bash is literally running commands in a shell session. Think terminal session. When a command fails, would you want the terminal session to…

    Examples: Would it make sense to have more fields visible at once? Maybe making users not have to dig though 10 pages to find the “Covid” checkbox would be better. Would it make se…

    The post’s argument is illogical. It doesn’t follow from wanting to speed things up for other teams that you can avoid some kinds of testing in the pipeline by having monitoring. T…
