I'll be very curious to the the source of this native-Windows port.

Absurdly high taxes (my parents pay half my tax on a non-rural property twice as big about 120 miles north of me), but still, owning a home is hardly a fiscally ruinous proposition…

Well, in some areas, but it really depends on the market - the property taxes on my home in a University city of 200,000 are 1/3 of what I was paying in rent - with the interest on…

The /proc/kallsyms values are identical across identical kernel compilations. Suppose you have a vulnerable CentOS 7 system that you want to exploit - you could get the proper addr…

Is SMAP required for mitigation, or is SMEP enough? IIUC SMEP is on Sandy Bridge processors too.

I cannot for the life of me make it through a game of chess without making some catastrophic blunder. If programming was that unforgiving I'd have to buy a new system every time I …

Red Hat's communication on their distribution of Florian's patch was sorely lacking, especially after http://lcamtuf.blogspot.com/2014/09/bash-bug-apply-unofficia... . It was in no…

Anecdotally I see better performance using ZoL than I did when I was running the same zpool and hardware on FreeBSD.

Even if I wanted to put up an antenna, certain spots are just not going to get reception easily for all of the channels I want to watch.

Isn't "except in emergencies" just asking for a company to liberally define "emergency"?

His "D3D interop" layer (I'm not sure why he called it emulation) is almost exactly what Valve just open-sourced. https://github.com/ValveSoftware/ToGL

Very very pretty graphics. I love that it doesn't look like voxels. I wonder if you could use this to import and export meshes from a physics sim? If you could turn the brick wall,…
