You can probably use luksHeaderBackup and luksHeaderRestore to make sure your recovery key will always work with the volume. Although I've never tried it so don't take my word for it, it should be pretty easy for you to try out. N

Apparently the AGC only had 36,864 words of rom. Looking at a random file from the github repo, each page seems to contain 50 lines. So if you put one instruction (one word) per line you could fit the whole rom inside 738 pages (assuming th

Their workaround of "To communicate with other people that don't use End-To-End, you will need to either generate a key in GnuPG and then import it" wouldn't make much sense if ETE wasn't able to import and interop

The OP might have stumbled upon this while searching the web for apple's metal, if that's the case it shows that the naming collision could be a good way to have people discover the product unexpectedly.

I think you would ask yourself : can I compute this at compile time? (And is it useful to do so?) I don't really see how you could use that for a database driver, but for example you could create a library that uses macros to generate

What if the signals emitted from inside the horizon do reach your head, but only once your head have crossed the horizon? Basically, you can change your reference point and consider that the signal is not moving, but your head is still movi

You could use rdrand if you're on (a recent enough) x86. You just lose some portability. Probably not a major issue at this point.

I tried using slimv as well some time ago but I never managed to get it working properly. I don't remember exactly what happened but I believe there were some bugs (like the lag you mention) and I couldn't figure out how to proper

It should also have to add some iptables rules no? At least one for the natting and one for the filtering.

That's seems like a neat app! How did you handle the concurrent remote-access on the files? Is there a way for the user applications to be warned when you receive an operational transformation? I'm implementing a fuse filesystem f

Side question, In the introduction the author mentions that if you don't care about privacy, you can solve the x ∈ S problem easily by sending the whole bloom filter to the client. Wouldn't it be simpler for the client to send x t

Well you're right, not everything is a file. We can't treat a socket like a file because the networks is less reliable/fast/whatever than the file system. You can't treat a pipe just like a file because it needs to

That would be an interesting thing to do. But since code usually has a formal grammar, and a relatively simple one at that, plus a far more constrained vocabulary and, like you pointed out, stricter style frameworks, the liberty of the auth

Maybe she didn't have to put that much weight, I think we can also consider the critics as one 'world' (in the article sense of the term). They influence each other, and if a small number of critics happen to find a novel abo

It's hard to get it to work with optimus-like systems, where the external video ports are not wired to the integrated gpu, and you want to use it by default (which is something you want if you care about battery life at all). Otherwise

In the 'configure inbox' panel you can disable tabs you don't care for. If you only keep 'primary', it's pretty much turned off. Now google might force it on you sometime in the future, but I don't really

This reminds me about something one of my teacher (a very stallman-like guy in his views) told us about encase. It's an (apparently) fairly common suite of tools used by law enforcement agencies around the world for forensic analysis.

Do you mean there are laws (in the US) about filming something in public, or just risk an arbitrary arrest for annoying a cop? I remember reading a story about a guy who installed a software to record from the webcam of the computers in an

Oh, the windows are supposed to be the game! Ok, then it's not a bug (per se) but I'm using a tiling wm, it's preventing the windows from moving. Thanks for the explanation.

I don't understand what it's supposed to do, it just spawned three windows, one plain yellow and the two others with 3 stripes and an increasing counter. Is that a bug or did I miss something? (I tested with up-to-date firefox and
