Huh. The researchers seemed to gloss over the Cloudflare Pages URL, but it's actually pretty interesting. I haven't had a chance to look at it in depth yet, but it appears to use the search-ms: URL protocol to show an attacker con

Tangentially related, I just recently found out that Lumberyard actually was spun out[1] into the open source Open 3D Engine[2] under the stewardship of the Linux Foundation. It's a nice surprise to see that Lumberyard didn't just

I'd call D&D more of a framework for collaborative storytelling that can absolutely be played as a game. The DM leads the adventure, the players decide how to respond to things. Everyone plays D&D a bit differently. The most st

I know for me (as someone who would likely never have had to pay a dime under either pricing scheme) the crux of the issue was unilateral, retroactive changes to a license that was supposed to be tied to the software version, as well as the

Definitely use a battle-tested HTML sanitization library if possible. There's a million different pitfalls and footguns with XSS. See: Some of the insane XSS polyglots out there that can be used for testing. https://github.c

However, if you're the creator of a Firefox/Chrome extension, and want to utilize the WebExtension support in Safari, your deployment workflow can no longer be platform agnostic.

I was thinking on that. You still need peripherals if you're using a Mac Mini, though that's no different than if you were using another desktop. Still though, if you don't use, or don't want to use a Mac as your daily d

Synchronous communication typically means something that demands your attention as soon as something is sent. Asynchronous communication is something that typically handled whenever you're ready for it. To put it in programming terms,

I mean, when a lawyer takes a case on contingency, they're essentially gambling their time on hopes of an outcome where their share (30-50% isn't uncommon, if I remember correctly) would make the time and effort spent on the case

Alright, since linking the entirety of title 17 isn't exactly easy to refer to as a source, the relevant part is 17 USC 203.^1 It's probably one of the more complex parts of copyright law. There's a few well-known cases of se

Down towards the bottom it seems like it's only presently available in the US, and they're simply using `.sm` as a clever domain name hack/gccTLD (e.g. .io domains, .ly domains, etc)

Quite a few "people" have solved it it looks like, and it's riddled with persisted XSS attacks once you get past it. Here's the returned response when you succeed: https://hasteb.in/iyifapud.html I found

There are definitely some games that just don't translate as well to Tabletop Sim, but as far as shared tabletop experiences, TTS blows every other one I've tried out of the water on the widest variety of games. I use it for D&amp

There's a lot more regulation and guidance around taking down a phishing site at the domain level, rather than at the provider level. (E.g. Hosting company, CloudFlare and other DNS providers, etc.) If I remember correctly, ICANN requi

Honestly, I'm glad they didn't. There's not much use in a whois privacy service if they'll give up the info just because a company says "this is infringing".

I feel like the title "Facebook sues Namecheap for registering phishing domains" is somewhat misleading. > We found that Namecheap’s proxy service, Whoisguard, registered or used 45 domain names that impersonated Facebook and o

That's a channel-specific option though. You can set per-channel bitrate, but it's not something Discord does automatically to accommodate lower throughput clients.

It looks like Ogg Vorbis has theoretical support in the spec for something called "Bitrate Peeling"[1], but there is no functional implementation for this yet, and there's been an open bounty on it since 2004.[2] This is a re

If you want to see the power of modular synths, I definitely recommend checking out some modular streamers on Twitch. Some use VCV, some use actual racks, but there's a growing community on there. https://www.twitch.tv/
