fwiw the relevant regulation seems to be : https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=uriserv%... The way I read article 4 3 b) I think the registry is allowed to terminat…

You can probably use luksHeaderBackup and luksHeaderRestore to make sure your recovery key will always work with the volume. Although I've never tried it so don't take my word for …

http://boosterok.com/blog/broadpwn/ shows a simple check using hostapd to see if a device is vulnerable

Apparently the AGC only had 36,864 words of rom. Looking at a random file from the github repo, each page seems to contain 50 lines. So if you put one instruction (one word) per li…

the dd on my machine (from the gnu coreutils 8.24) does just that with the 'status=progress' option. dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/null status=progress 4814691328 bytes (4,8 GB) copied, …

Their workaround of "To communicate with other people that don't use End-To-End, you will need to either generate a key in GnuPG and then import it" wouldn't make much sense if ETE…

The OP might have stumbled upon this while searching the web for apple's metal, if that's the case it shows that the naming collision could be a good way to have people discover th…

There are also some translations, you can compare with this translation : http://books.google.fr/books?id=ThC5OoAisaMC&pg=PA21&lpg=PA2... of the same page: on the last line, page 2…

I think you would ask yourself : can I compute this at compile time? (And is it useful to do so?) I don't really see how you could use that for a database driver, but for example y…

What if the signals emitted from inside the horizon do reach your head, but only once your head have crossed the horizon? Basically, you can change your reference point and conside…

You could use rdrand if you're on (a recent enough) x86. You just lose some portability. Probably not a major issue at this point.

I tried using slimv as well some time ago but I never managed to get it working properly. I don't remember exactly what happened but I believe there were some bugs (like the lag yo…

Someone posted https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5771276 a few months ago. I'm not sure we could call that a kernel, but it's a first step.

It should also have to add some iptables rules no? At least one for the natting and one for the filtering.

That's seems like a neat app! How did you handle the concurrent remote-access on the files? Is there a way for the user applications to be warned when you receive an operational tr…

Side question, In the introduction the author mentions that if you don't care about privacy, you can solve the x ∈ S problem easily by sending the whole bloom filter to the client.…

Well you're right, not everything is a file. We can't treat a socket like a file because the networks is less reliable/fast/whatever than the file system. You can't treat a pipe ju…

That would be an interesting thing to do. But since code usually has a formal grammar, and a relatively simple one at that, plus a far more constrained vocabulary and, like you poi…

Maybe she didn't have to put that much weight, I think we can also consider the critics as one 'world' (in the article sense of the term). They influence each other, and if a small…

It's hard to get it to work with optimus-like systems, where the external video ports are not wired to the integrated gpu, and you want to use it by default (which is something you…

In the 'configure inbox' panel you can disable tabs you don't care for. If you only keep 'primary', it's pretty much turned off. Now google might force it on you sometime in the fu…

Something like eclim? http://eclim.org/

Since the post was about privacy I'd like to point out that unifying the address and search bar means that you can't search through your history/bookmarks (or do keywords searches)…

This reminds me about something one of my teacher (a very stallman-like guy in his views) told us about encase. It's an (apparently) fairly common suite of tools used by law enforc…

Do you mean there are laws (in the US) about filming something in public, or just risk an arbitrary arrest for annoying a cop? I remember reading a story about a guy who installed …
