I have FDE with keys in the TPM. It's pretty smooth bit required a one time additional step in Fedora. It's also probably not very secure, but my threat model is simple theft.

Did it? At that time, I felt like they were an expensive boutique manufacturer that basically catered to a niche audience of media professionals. At the time, they weren't even among the biggest tech companies. Today, they are one of t

The high resolution video wall is quite simple. The hard part and why this has not been done earlier is that for filming, they had to synchronize the rendered background with the movement of the camera.

Well, the premise of the article is clearly stated. The headline is, of course, exaggerated, but why would you read the whole article when you disagree completely with the premise? I also find "the volta" unrelatable. I don't

I also think this shows what the changed economics do: it allows anyone to fill the web with convincing looking nonsense. The person who built this did not have to put in months to build a cool web app. But they also did not have to put in

If taken 100% seriously, the post is just bad mathematics and bad linguistics. But I don't think it's intended to be rigorous work of either discipline. But I do share the frustration regarding pedantry in mathematics, and I hate

NoScript and uMatrix were a great help - for very advanced users. But the typical user was left behind.

It's only strange because you interpreted "Chrome made the web so much better for everyone" as "Chrome had a webRequest API", which is probably not what the original poster meant.

Isn't too early to see if the Gigadatacenters will really pay off? I'm not trying to be an AI doomer here, but I thought the new really large DCs are just not yet online.

Correction: in CSS1, from December 1996, a pixel was defined slightly differently, which works out to 1/90th of an inch.

No one decided to break it, it was 1/96th of an inch from the beginning. The problem with different screens having different pixel densities was already present and obvious in 1996. "Real" pixels are useless if you don't

Maybe. But what does the "Access to photos" permission really do here? It's not like not having that permission would stop Apple from accessing them against your will, as they have access via the OS anyway. And it's clea

There was also a lot of fraud and mismanagement. People's crypto vanished and no one at the exchange was able to reconstruct how because there was no sufficient security and no real bookkeeping. There is a lot of regulatory capture in

Given the letter X it's probably Greek, so it would be Alexai. Which is coincidentally about pronounced the same.

The pandemic introduced so many weird shifts in demand for so many things, we're still not back at normal. In this case, I think another factor is that the monastery decided to not ship to countries outside of Europe at all any more, a

Except for PHP I don't think that's a very fitting list. C for example, is not really a concise language, not even for its time - APL is much more concise. C is rather verbose. Likewise, Python is not the first language without br

1/3, but under unreasonable time pressure, and with no prior vetting. For example, I played a few times, and I'm not a JS developer. I had to just suss out if npm whatever is dangerous or not. I'm very happy with my personal

The last time any company was interested to build a nuclear reactor in Germany was in the 1970s. About thirty years before the eventual (first) ban. We can rant all day about how stupid it was of the conservatives to re-enact the ban on n

I don't really get this. It's not like what the author has to say is contingent on displaying it as a failure of Age of Empires. And it really is just over-interpreting the game. No, converting a unit with a priest is not some sor

I don't know who "we" is, but assassinating or kidnapping foreigners is illegal. Also, it didn't work. Not in Iran and not even in Venezuela.

98% isn't much, but it's also not little. It's just a number, and numbers don't have a meaning without an interpretation. That's a fundamental logical feature, but hardly a special insight.

Discussion quality is, in my experience, mostly a function of group size. Online discussions scale better than in person, but there's a limit.

denic is the single source of truth for zones under .de. The only problem with DNSSEC here is that it's complex.

But it really isn't a head scratcher, and it's not a wild guess, and also, dark matter is not the same as dark energy. Think about some random person born in the 1950s. It will be impossible for you to directly prove that that per

The idea of talking to a machine that has all of humanities knowledge and gives answers is older than electronic computing. It certainly wasn't a novel idea when Jobs gave that speech. At that time, the field of artificial intelligence

I don't know if you wanted to imply that, but just to make sure no one misunderstands: GitHub didn't invent git. I don't know if they were the first git forge, but they were certainly among the first.

That may be how JavaScript started, but unless your claim is that JavaScript hasn't changed at all in the thirty years or so since then, your argument is a complete non-sequitur.

I don't know why it would matter, but Einstein didn't hate quantum mechanics. He literally got his Nobel prize for his role in discovering quantum mechanics. He is one of the earliest people to propose that light exists in quantis
