Your remark made me laugh, but..: "Oct 20 3:35 AM PDT The underlying DNS issue has been fully mitigated, and most AWS Service operations are succeeding normally now. Some requests may be throttled while we work toward full resolution.&

In Switzerland we're one step ahead: ID photos get taken at the counter where they're issued. You get 2, 3 takes and pick the best. Efficient and secure.

I am "forced" to allow "our" domains to be DNSSEC because... an auditor suggested it as a possible improvement and some manager thought it a good idea to do whatever said auditor proposes. The argument that absolutely no

https://theoldreader.com/ Just toss in a site you like, it'll (try to) find the RSS feed, and you're done. I have about 50 sites added in the old reader, and it makes following them easy.

I used to track all of this as well. Now I drive an EV and there is absolutely nothing left to track. The only thing I get to "spreadsheet" with is the ever disappointing km/KW. Which is something I try to avoid to not trigge

Priorities. We all have 24 hours, there is no "finding time", it is just prioritising one thing over the another. In the mids of my booming (cough) career, I was blessed with 4 children within 5 years. My prios shifted and still

Simply because I've been driving TVs for a while and "in the beginning" when there was no rules for brake lights to be turned on when regenerative breaking, I got into trouble (German highways) with cars driving behind me and

The European Union has a regulation that requires EVs to illuminate their brake lights anytime the regenerative-braking system’s deceleration rate exceeds 1.3 meters per second squared, or about 0.13 g.

And my prediction, based on a pool of 3, is that this 1% will be gone a day later. Have you tried co-pilot? It is the worst. My 3 year old gives more coherent answers and paints better images.

Being from that time: it was't. We spend much "downtime" learning, reading and writing (pseudo) code. Remember, coding was new, access to existing "examples" close to zero, so we had to figure a lot of stuff out. Pa

Nicely written and I can only hope that some young, tech savvy person reads it and realises how persistent "law enforcement" can be and how scary it is to be targeted by them.

TIL! I had to check and yes, the cans sold here (Switzerland) have the same code. Now I have a new hangup and that's buying those within the right range :)

I have no idea either since: "you’ll need to install and run a new build (links below), and register for a new account with a phone number (you can use the same one you’re using in Production)."

For those interested in more on the same topic, there is a decent list of blogs at the end of this: https://www.cve.org/CVERecord?id=CVE-2023-44487 (and yes, that includes this article here as well).

To be effective, you need to either be prepared to hide behind google, Cloudflare or AWS, OR you need some pretty expensive deal with you (large) ISP who can (quickly) filter on their edge. Sitting at the end of whatever network, you will n

But these ISPs that give something and inform and even isolate their infected customers are few and far between. Shout out to Dutch ISP XS4ALL who was (is?) very very strict and active in this space.
