    I think most of the web wasn't encrypted by default until letsencrypt came on the scene just over a decade ago. (I remember a few "free cert" offerings that were entirely manual, a…

    I wish they'd show up like regular videos in the subscription feed, like they used to a few years ago. Currently, I have to guess who uploaded a short to decide if I want to watch …

    Back when they still had staffed support, and were called twitter, I'd have to spend a week or more back and forth with them when I inevitably hit the demand for a phone number. Mo…

    Scott Manley does a roundup video every two or so weeks called 'deep space updates' that I suggest watching. The start is all rocket launches, which gives a good idea of how much i…

    It's strange for formerly lost media to get a whole news story about it. This should, but still strange. Hope more are found sooner than another 13 years from now.

    They're on the die. efuses existed on the ps3 and 360 too. The 360 used them to prevent downgrades, but the ps3 used all of theirs to store bluray drive keys.
