I built GetPost because I miss the simplicity of just SCPing files to a personal server, but I do not miss the maintenance burden. It's a pastebin/imagebin that runs on Cloudflare …

All of these are true! Except maybe the first one, which is a gross oversimplification. "The dose makes the poison" is not something I expect an average Google user to have modeled…

*ARM processors with speculative / out of order execution are affected.

My understanding is that older A53 implementations of AArch64 / ARM64 are strictly in-order and thus not suceceptible to Spectre etc.

This is great! Thanks for the recommendation.

I don't understand why, but I believe I've observed similar. Possible hypotheses include: DHT Sybil attack? Hash ring bloat? Bad peers distributing exclusively irrelevant content? …

Running a build of Ayufan's 4.19 patches on a rock64 with latest dev device tree from the Armbian project. Eth runs close to theoretical, finally, and I've not observed any issues …

No, it does use the network to validate registration keys. Presumably this means a TLS connection per invocation of the binary. > TabNine makes web requests only for the purposes o…

I don't think a DRM solution that is both robust against an adversary and inspectable by a stakeholder can be engineered. Software can't look out for both the person running it and…

Fortunately, seems as if this is not as easy to exploit as it sounds. Patched dropbear to send SUCCESS instead of REQUEST and my servers throw `dispatch_protocol_error: type 52 seq…

Vaporization (boiling) is not a chemical reaction.

I'm astonished that there are folks in this thread who believe vaping to be as harmful as smoking cigarettes. Are there any peer reviewed papers supporting this assertion? I've kep…

> Combustion is still the main chemical reaction Please do some research! This is blatantly false. Combustion is not involved in vaping, and boiling is not a chemical reaction! It'…
