the Gentoo Wiki is also high on my list, actually first because Gentoo is my preferred choice, equal in terms of useful content, only second in userbase - to Arch. Gentoo also implemented a policy prohibiting people from contributing LLM o

we have been using wgetpaste, that supports this 0x0 service (among others), as a support tool, so people can paste their debug logs and stuff to chat. https://github.com/zlin/wgetpaste you can also use curl directly:

The Coming Soon columns make it hard to see the two main price and name columns on mobile small screen at the same time. I wish to hide those. But nice idea.

"At 10% threshold, assuming a 10-μs code cycle and non-local connections, one key can be generated every 10 minutes using 6000 modules with 1152 physical qubits each." 1152 qubits sounds like the D-Wave chips. So does that mean 60

now here we have "X considered harmful" - a common Trope. This seems more like a "First!" to title their paper this, as a meme of the whitepaper meta, that title came first, then the arguments came. I say this because I

a similar situation just happened between Nvidia and EVGA. NVidia makes the chips, And So, holds all the bargaining chips so to speak, and EVGA is just the board partner that has to find some way to make the price work. At some point it bec

I can't believe [What do they have to hide?] was even seriously spoken here. Im not the only one who believes this glows exactly like a state-sanctioned hitjob. This was cyber-warfare. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f5

One step closer to anarcho-tyranny. Anonymous has become the Antifa of the Internet. Basically a far-left strike force, cloaked but public, with enough plausible deniability that the 3 letter agencies allow to exist because they can do thin

I havent confused them. Its phrased like that to alert people they can't change the key strength by bit-ness, but they can change the KDF password-strength, on GENERATION, which is peoples first gateway into Ed25519. And X448 opens ano

4096 _does_ take a lot of extra CPU resources, and it _is_ diminishing returns. But anyone who prioritizes this above all else is arguing either from a vantage point of distributed scaling across servers that cost money to handle millions o

I didnt say it wasn't enough. I said you should upgrade to elliptic curve crypto, or if you have to stay on RSA, re-generate with 4096 because it's better. A 2048 bit RSA key only provides 112 bits of security - claimed to be suit

Exactly, I was trying to point this out, that they were seperate. I only mention increasing the rounds of your passphrase in the same sentence because you do this when generating the key to increase security, and if you don't specify i

There is a good reason, its just buried in complex crypto math and I won't be the one to explain it for you. If you are still using RSA, you should have upgraded to 4096 bit RSA by now. If not, you should be regenerating and changing

Yea. But that was added later, and theres still important JSON build-system files that you need to edit manually to this day. JSON isnt descriptive enough to auto-translate the raw files into a functional GUI. They seem to think its better

MS is so large, one hand doesn't know what any other division is doing, and their community interaction is horrible because they make more money when people are ill informed and just go with the flow. So even if 10% of the company is &
