They already have another RFD for this: https://rfd.shared.oxide.computer/rfd/0508 and on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41268043

They just poured $5B into it, that's a decent runway. https://techcrunch.com/2024/07/23/alphabet-to-invest-another...

Until recently the Swiss National Bank was mostly concerned with pushing the franc down , they had the lowest rates in Europe (and after the recent raise they're still negative at …

Not only there isn't any sandboxing, the lack of it is how WINE works - wine's low-level dlls (kernel32.dll for example) just call out to linux libs, or syscall directly.

More likely to be sold or leased out, and the server is somewhere far away. Basically all telephony nowadays is VOIP, even if you have an old fashioned landline it'll be analog onl…

Elastic isn't an open source project after the license change.

On AMD the GPU driver stack is unlikely to be materially different from Stadia, I doubt Google is using anything else than (possibly customized/patched) amdgpu+mesa.

KMail uses QtWebEngine, which is effectively Chromium.

That is much more difficult, might require various unsupported hacks and for a truly robust solution you'd need two GPUs. For games having a Vulkan or DX12 (via DXVK) renderer, win…

/pol/ has grown a lot louder and prominent in the past few years though, to the point where even many seasoned 4chan posters are annoyed by them. "go back to /pol/" is a complaint …

Those are usually quite expensive. If HDMI requires 48Gb/s capable transceiver chips to be built into every TV, they will get really cheap very fast. It might not be a viable solut…

If you're in Europe, RIPE still hands out ipv4 /22's to new members. Their fee is 1400EUR/year though, so not that cheap.

If you pass -march=skylake it will get even more monstrous, with AVX: https://godbolt.org/g/v7iKF3

This seems relevant https://i.imgur.com/l4kjNba.png

polkit doesn't typically run on server installations, so this isn't that bad.

>We would like to see that systemd upstream retrieves CVE's themself for their own bugs, even if its believed that its just a local DoS. So not only they didn't notice this was exp…

The Chromium codesearch instance is public: https://cs.chromium.org/

To block a certain hidden service on a relay you need to know what is the hidden service you are relaying data to (obviously), which completely defeats all anonymity - a 'first hop…

They did two much more impressive demos[1][2] with this technology, including drawing complex geometry using only point sprites, on DX9(no compute shaders). It's remarkable that th…

That is GLSL, the language pixel, vertex (and other) shaders are written in.

Awesome library, but I'm a bit worried that they chose to implement their own crypto(mostly ECDSA), instead of using an existing implementation known to be correct.

scriptSig (the second part of the script) contains the signature - it can't sign itself, but you can add other opcodes to it and that allows malleability.

There was a patch[1] some time ago that prevents sending fees larger than 1 BTC. Still a lot of money, but it won't let you lose thousands of dollars. 1: https://github.com/bitcoin…

Unfortunately, there is no way to spend a multisig (or any other nonstandard) transaction besides using the createrawtransaction API. It would be really nice if somebody implemente…

Bitcoin will still need to be mined - the whole 'trust' system is built on it, just the block reward will be zero. Miners will then profit only from transaction fees, so either the…
