Semi-related, there are some very cool converted datacentres in the UK. The Bunker operates an underground datacentre out of a former military installation. Radar base if memory se…

No idea, just answering the “Why not pick a location not within a "major airport flight path"? It seems much cheaper.” question.

London has lots of datacentres in Slough (near Heathrow) and Docklands (London City Airport, but also many LHR planes transit over). AWS/Azure/GCP/etc Colo in Equinix/Telehouse dat…

Thanks for the clarification. It’s a bit of a shame as going via ISE would have let the group move onto other endeavours. Maybe people will just refer to the draft name and that’s …

DJB has orchestrated a vote rigging campaign against this WGLC, encouraging users to join the list and vote/express their opinion and providing the exact subject header to use. Hav…

I’m a passive observer on the same list and have been for at least several years. I don’t plan to comment on the WGLC currently going on… but I will be so extremely happy once the …

There used to be - probably still are - cameras that would digitally sign all their images. Used in crime scenes? Maybe we will end up seeing wider adoption of this, despite the pr…

There are some - albeit few - cars that tick most of this checklist. MZS5 EV[1] checks most except the physical buttons, which is a half tick. There’s some physical buttons for som…

An eternal summer of CVEs is upon us

As a workaround, can Tailscale internally add multiple menu items and keep adding until one reports as visible?

Agreed. I suppose they could lookup based on your IP to pre-select a country (which you can still override if you need to aka VPNs and ordering from a different country), and based…

I agree. 20-something years ago, when I paid for my internet connection, I also got an email address (or 5…) and some personal web space (5MB maybe?) and access to their NTP server…

Sounds like a bug in their css layout related to the smaller screen size

I see a white X in a blue box to the lower right of the modal. Is it that?

I don’t think it’s a silly question. Before mobile phones, there were public phone booths. Along motorways there were often call boxes. There’s little to none of that anymore. Also…

No good when the upstream is some wifi connection provided by the building management, rather than a telco themselves. May as well pick a single solution that works across all Inte…

On the later parts, VRF in my scenarios won’t scale. Need to provide support access to 10k-50k locations all with the same subnet (industry standard equipment where the vendor mand…

The problem with talking to a telco, is you have to talk with not just one but any your customer may use. And if at the customer location there’s multiple routers in between the ca…

They’ve been planning this for a while. These datacentres and organisations don’t spring up overnight, especially at this scale. I know at least one major European bank made it a r…

Do you take into account the iPhone not holding the original images of every photo? It will offload originals and just keep thumbnails if the library is too large. Mine is approach…

Or could just release the tool that issues new keys/serials/licenses.

It could have been action against any number of countries or people. Russia, Iran, Syria, Yemen, North Korea, etc.
