And to be honest a simple mail with a nice little attachment.exe and a little SE would have given the attacker the same result without the risk of physical penetration...

I love this, it's so simple (at least the idea is) yet nobody has done this. (as far as I know). I use Popcorn Time almost daily and spent 60 700 minutes in 2018 listening to Spotify, so it's safe to say I need my music, yet to me

In my case I have a vimrc file that is now close to .5K lines and keeps getting bigger. I have all my key bindings (skhd) setup in a configuration file, most of these are for my tilling WM (chunkwm) which also needs to be synced accross my

I feel so dumb, I just started coding a project to sync my configuration files across multiple machines. I even tried a quick "configuration synchronise" search on Github but came up with nothing. Oh well.

I sadly have to code AMP for work. The reason you see a white page is that the boilerplate code required for any AMP page to be valid includes : webkit-animation:-amp-start 8s steps(1,end) 0s 1 normal both; With visibility set to hid

I don't think I am able to answer this. If you took a bank robber instead of hacker you could ask the same question and if anybody had an answer to this I don't think there would be bank robbers in the world. edit: This actually f

I don't agree that much with what you are saying, mainly from personal experience. 1. Even if parents find out they probably have no idea what it means (legally or literally) 2. You can open a bank account really easily online for free

SWIM did something similar at a similar age on the game League of Legends. What is interesting was that at the time, most script kiddy programs to do the "cracking" would in fact work, but as soon as you found (bruteforced) a vali

This is pretty much the spirit of Google too, start a service, have no users, discontinue service. The problem with this is that most of these ideas don't work because they are usually too early for their time. Which is quite stupid wh

Not Amazon but drone delivery is becoming a thing, a startup called Zipline is currently (successfully) running trials in Rwanda of drones that are used to deliver blood to hospitals where it would never be able to arrive in a timely fashio

Strongly agree with this, why sell a service when you can give your client the tools they need to implement the service themselves with ease. Strapi has been working in this direction, selling-itself as a "Wordpress" for backends.

Does this play nicely with 3D printing like Fusion/Cura does ? Fusion's UX makes me want to gouge my eyes out. It's almost as if they make it intentionally hard so that you have to buy a training from them...

I am not emitting an ethical judgement on what he does btw, merely suggesting that: If you think that what he is doing can be achieved by an incompetent person, then why don't you simply do it yourself ? Why don't you become the g

This is already a reality and has been for long before "open-source" was even a thing. Can't remember exact details but recently (a couple years ago), a very high placed tech exec at some big corp was discovered to have been

I can't tell if this shows a terrible bias towards NA or if people who aren't from NA don't even bother applying for X reason(s) or get rejected. edit: I am getting downvoted to hell for some reason when I'm simply tryin

I think this is related to two distinct philosophies, namely what I guess you could call the "Basecamp" philosophy and everybody else (the more popular one in the world today). One thing that is undeniable is that a bootstrap will

I am not asking for them to support every release they ever did until the end of Apple's existence. I think it is safe to assume that even the "latest" release has some bugs. I am simply asking why downgrading to an older ver

Would you mind taking a minute to explain why you needed a tool like this in the first place, please? I'm quite interested.

You can install any theme you want... This is linux, not macos. The point is for you to customize to your liking. Same for flatpack, I don't see why you expect it to be bundled over snaps (which is included if I recall) or appimages...

Can anybody explain why they want me to buy a 500$ piece of hardware? Can the same result not be achieved with a Raspberry Pi and any self-hosted open-source mail server? Why is this not simply a download?

I think that it is simply not the right time. We are starting to see more and more people who realize what society has become and get sad when they enter a room and out of 50 people in it, 48 have their heads bent down, no eyes to be seen,

I learned development with Python (after trying to grasp the concepts of C for a while) and I have to say that alongside .NET it is one of the easiest languages I had the pleasure to work with. So much so that after 10 years of mainly Javas

I'll give UX feedback: Don't use a burger menu, especially for a desktop version where you only have 4-5 pages that could easily fit horizontally. Disable the link of your logo on the homepage as it is redundant and can lead to co
