You can't have both. "Hardware security" means the manufacturer decides which OS can run and you can't override it.

Banks absolutely love security by obscurity. No clue why.

There's no such thing as "reliable" AI.

The "everyone dies" scenario is overwhelmingly likely given that no solutions to either inner or outer alignment exist.

His Github page [1] matches some of this. 83% commits, 14% PRs, 2% reviews, 1% issues. Clearly out of control.

Or, more accurately, Please don't.

That's what you get for using unfree software.

I would imagine Red Hat are pretty close to "they", since they created Systemd and then there was the RHEL redistribution controversy [ https://old.reddit.com/r/Fedora/comments/14k8jmw/can_someone... ].

Unfortunate that they aren't using the AGPL license. It will allow SAAS companies to Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish.

Indeed, this seems to be already planned. https://radicle.dev/faq "Radworks intends to offer services built on top of Radicle."

"We need a new standard!" :p

No one can apply to be pope of the catholic church.

A bunch of plugins running on canvas.instructure.com are proprietary, according to their FAQ: https://github.com/instructure/canvas-lms/wiki/FAQ.

I would guess these plugins are chosen so a majority of user won't want to live without them.

It also seems these plugins "link" to canvas-lms, so keeping the proprietary would be a GPL violation if anyone except Instructure holds part of the copyright to Canvas.

You know what you doing!

I got tired of dealing with SSH knocks and blocked the port for all external IPs, using WireGuard to get into the LAN.

WireGuard is nice because, unlike most other services, it operates on UDP and sends no reply packet unless you know the key, so attackers can't discover it by portscanning.

They kinda are: "This issue is to fully eliminate LLVM, Clang, and LLD libraries from the Zig project." https://github.com/ziglang/zig/issues/16270

I'm confused.

The IndexedDB UUID is "shared across all origins", so why not use the contents of the database to identify browers, rather than the ordering?

NSA never cared about rules.

"solve security" - that's an April Fools joke if I ever heard one.

Me too, main reason I switched to Debian.

It seems the commits aren't in proper date order. Here are some newer changes, placed before the latest commits: https://github.com/EnriqueLop/legalize-es/commits/master/?af...

To fight a thing, you must think about it.

The best way to avoid an -ism is to forget about it.

The fighters cannot forget, so they fall into a trap of their own making.

That is still a very good template for how a simple website should be written.

A much more effective counter to this would be to rebalance the information asymmetry by giving citizens the tools to coordinate against state sponsored influence.

Which tools, specifically? I know none.

Wise.

I've seen many a fine volonteer project become enshittified because they started optimizing for financial income rather than for having fun.

I agree.

If a copyright holder does not give you permission, you can't legally relicense. Even if they're dead.

If they're dead and their estate doesn't care, you might pirate it without getting sued, but any recipient of the new work would be just as liable as you are, and they'd know that, so I probably wouldn't risk it.

"How do we protect ourselves against a competitor doing this?"

That's the neat thing: you don't!

"low-latency links", says the article. I wonder if they consider 500 ms ping to be low, or if they want to replace Geostationary with Low Earth Orbit.

That's a lie.
