You are part of the problem. In fact, you are the problem. You know, tenants have rights too, they pay taxes, and as a rule they tend to pay more taxes and get less break for it than homeowners, especially in California, where incumbent hom

Just wait until the storefront business everyone is so excited about takes off. Now you can't buy groceries anymore.

pkg_add -Uu won't address a single update under https://www.openbsd.org/errata.html , i.e. the very most important ones. Also as far as I know pkg_add still doesn't know about restarting services, so vulnerable pr

For some reason my post was deleted, but to repeat, you are pointing to a recent commit made to CVS.

It wasn't? Then why did they? As I've repeatedly reminded, sudo is in ports. I thought credential caching was left out because it was another unnecessary bloated feature creep and doas is supposed to be minimal and more secure. Ap

How does that matter? Fact is you move from 5.7 to 5.8 and boom, no sudo. Check the release notes, and yeah, it's replaced with Ted's little side project. In 5.9 release notes it's "a little friendlier to use". Not

Much to like, but one point is somewhat outdated and another is missing. 1. The lack of an AppArmor-type MAC implementation is somewhat outdated since Theo rolled his own with "pledge". I'm not a huge fan of how a cabal of Th

Yes. If you don't think so, then just tell your browser to remember your passwords and don't bother with another tool.

How is this to supposed to show "how vulnerable you are to this sort of attack"? This runs standalone. 1. As a general rule, if you download and run an untrusted standalone program, it could probably steal your passwords even if y

Then you knowingly bought a combo shitbox. There have always been quality consumer wireless access points, modems, and routers available, but you chose to buy the combo shitbox.

well, that wasn't as alarming as "one down the shed there that'll use 13 litres of petrol every hundred yards." I hope it is moving a lot of dirt in those 100 yards.

What? Put a firewall in front of your firewall, because more firewalls is better? How about use a firewall that's not shit to begin with.

I don't know, but in my personal three decades of experience "inevitable disk failure" is not a "tiny subset of risk factors." RAID is huge defense for keeping "inevitable disk failure" from turning into &

"Use cloud," without more, isn't necessarily backup at all.

Shouldn't a reference device not suck? Not saying this to be a dick, but "it's a reference device" is a terrible response here.

I'm all for pounding the pavement if your network doesn't line you up, but 20+ in 2-3 weeks suggests a very different assembly-line approach. I'm having difficulty imagining how it would be logistically possible for me to lin

> blanket ip ownership not so common Really? I've found blanket IP ownership to be more common than noncompetes, at least in US outside CA. My experience, is that noncompetes are more likely to be limited to key personnel, whereas t

No. The entire premise of amortized analysis is to get a more optimistic "eventually O" number. "Eventually" is not good enough for real time. Yes you can get a real hard worst-case number, but that's a different

It's neither a lie nor a myth, yet the truth is surprising. A 2011 study found only 0.1% of student debtors in bankruptcy even apply for discharge of student loans. Yet of that self-selecting group, 40% were successful. The question is

You can't amortize in real-time. You don't get a mulligan for missing a deadline because you can do twice as much work in the next frame.

Indeed. If there's no worst case time, that eliminates use in hard-real-time, certifiable embedded, e.g. aerospace, medical, etc. You can't very well tolerate an "atypical" GC pause when you're firing a laser or rad

Actually, most of the Republican party is in the process of committing political suicide right now. Enough with your vacuous false balance.
