It's interesting, but it sounds more like a political/societal theory rather than actual events or state of the society. It would be much more interesting and largely shareable if it contained more documented facts rather than generic affirmations.
the admin password to be 'admin'. They'd often even print it on the device itself.
Yes but aren't you supposed to change that one? The problem with the rzadmin is that it will continue to work even after you change the regular admin one...
Possibly the same but done by Edge?
In some places it always was better (it's OpenStreetMap data) e.g. in the Puna de Atacama desert in Argentina/Chile, Google Maps is years behind in therms of map precision. Lots of roads are missing from Google Maps. Plus, OrganicMaps working totally offline, it's perfect for such a place where the only Internet would be by satellite.
Why do you even need GA? (not sure if it's bot friendly btw) One could just run a local traffic analysis and feed that back into the bot
It all depends on how you define malware. If malware is software doing something that is contrary to the user's interests, then for many users it is indeed malware.
how did you come to this conclusion
I didn't see any reference to the possibility of using anything else on their website. And yes I was only speaking of authbound.
Looks like this only works on smartphones? Well... no thanks.
Code 128 supports some ISO-8859-1 indeed, but it requires switching between encodings (there are 3 of them), and couldn't work with 128B (I guess the one used by the font, as it supports ASCII). See the table on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_128
I think that the start of the article is at least a bit exaggerated:
SSH is yet another example of an ancient technology that is still in wide use today.
On which OS? On Windows, with the Swiss German layout AltGr+m does nothing. Probably the same on US ones.
Might be AltGr-m on Linux (didn't try).
That's what I do, actually, although I use Alt+230 because I remember the code from CP437.
The problem is that µ is usually hard to type (unless you have a Greek keyboard or a custom keyboard mapping). This said, although I tolerate stuff like "47 uF" in electronic schematics (also because legacy software didn't even allow the µ symbol), I definitely find horrible to see stuff like "us" instead of "µs" in an article.
Interesting. The header size seems big for low-resources embedded systems (e.g. with only 256 bytes of EEPROM). I'd rather use a file identifier (e.g. a 8-bit number) to identify what a file is doing instead of arbitrary names.
How did he get the videos out of the cameras that were seized if the recording was also not uploaded? Can Nest cameras upload/stream to private servers? (never had one so I have no idea)
Someone already mentioned the mouse cursor... is it supposed to be solved? Now I see... none, which is kind of pointless on desktop.
Everybody I know uses IM systems like Wechat, WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal.
Great, instead of having a single, standard and interoperable way to communicate (albeit with its defaults), now we need to have 5, 6, 7 different closed systems that can't speak with each other, most of which require a working smartphone in order to even have an "address". What a wonderful evolution...
You will then see the new one in the same situation...
What does this bring compared to apt-get install-ing an established mail server like procmail or exim and configuring it to work as a relay for the local LAN?
I've yet to read a good explanation of why the telcos permit CLID faking and reinjection of apparently local CLID by overseas inputs.
Actually, there are several legitimate use cases:
• Call divert: Local number calls a number abroad and that one is diverted back a another local number. It's probably rare, but it's a totally legit use case.
• 2G/3G roaming: I'm not an expert on this one, but as far as I understood it, roaming calls placed on 2G/3G networks are initiated in the visiting country, and use the local number of the caller.
• Getting better rates using VoIP. Whether this is legit or not might be subject to discussion, however I was using a foreign VoIP provider (because they had better rates for local calls than any local providers, for my low call volume) sending out my own local number (had to be validated by them by callback, although that's their own security measure, not the network's one). Now in several EU countries and Switzerland this doesn't work any more, as calls bearing national IDs coming from abroad must be displayed as anonymous. And it's quite annoying that there isn't a way to "authentify" those numbers so the owner can use them as they wish.
Is this the same CHAOS that can be in IP packets as protocol 0x10?
Did anyone else first read "the smartest COVID"?
An e-mail address can have multiple @ also for... source routing. Of course it doesn't make any sense nowadays, but it's technically allowed. RFC 5321 gives an example:
@hosta.int,@jkl.org:userc@d.bar.org
Weren't similar techniques already used years ago by malvertizers to hide malicious code into images published for ads so it wouldn't be detected? (although it might have been more like steganography)
Time for a non-US equivalent of Let's Encrypt?
It seems the site basically doesn't do anything for IPv6 :-(
I see the same problem with rDNS. The box at the top correctly reports the DNS name as "forward-confirmed" but I see a -5 points penalty for missing reverse DNS. Tried with various IP addresses, and I observe the same for many (not all).
Can the same version of Word now produce the same rendering on two PCs? In the past (I didn't really check recently, I'm thinking more about 10 years ago) the same file might have had page breaks in different positions and things like that. I never understood if it came from slightly different versions of the fonts, from some info derived from the default printing or anything else...
With a credit card ;-)
