I've been there, barely bumped a customer's power cord and taken out their servers before. Made me so mad...

i come from a time when everyone used a handle, but mine has almost always been something that was a part of my real name. And then I kept it and due to my participation in various projects you can easily find my real full name. So I'm not hiding behind a pseudonym as much as continuing to keep this identity as many people (even those I've met in real life) know me by it

my only guess is they think the firehose needs to be sent to every server on the network simultaneously

e-mail can't scale. If 2.6 million users decided to join Hotmail it would have fallen over dead.

PGP revocation requires that you search the same keyservers for the revocation that they published it to. If they didn't publish it where you'll find it you're screwed.
But yeah theoretically you could have a private CRL server if we could get OSes and browsers to let us configure it

black people don't say "what the hell?" or is it just a cliche if they don't speak with a white midwestern accent

What is the plan for people who are upset at Telegram not effectively moderating their platform whilst simultaneously promoting E2EE? Is it good that we're giving pedophiles and terrorists even more privacy when we push them to platforms like Signal?
At some point you *will* have to find a way to morally defend their access to E2EE in the process of defending your own access to it.

booting off an external drive that was already installed from scratch may still work but you can't clone an existing system and have it be bootable

well they had to find a way to close one of the backdoors being abused by state attackers and so now the storage volume is cryptographically sealed/signed/verified by key only Apple controls.
It *may* be possible to do a clean install on an external drive and Apple sign it during (does this mean you can't install macOS without internet at all now?)

I used to be comforted with the idea that if something bad happened to my Mac I could at least limp along and boot off the external. This is not possible anymore.
Grrr now I have to find a different disaster recovery strategy as the one I've had for ages won't work anymore.

2024-09-07 18:50:27

So apparently it's impossible to clone a Mac and boot off external storage?
According to CCC docs:
> Only Apple can make an external device bootable. Our support for system copying and bootability is limited to the suggestions noted above.
The storage needs to be signed with a signature only Apple can do

Mastodon *is* the lock-in.

Just spotted an Elixir trick I haven't seen before
def visible_for_user?(%{__struct__: module} = message, user)
when module in [Activity, Object] do
now that's a neat way to match on both struct types

so I ordered from boxed.com which is this new-ish online store that sells stuff from Costco, Sam's Club, etc.
They double shipped me.
Anyone have recipes that require Taco seasoning?

we were allowing duplicate oauth apps to be registered under the same name which was silly
edit: eh there is a different class of nuisance this creates so gonna try something else

if you're only targeting hardware commonly exposed in virtual machines, perhaps. But the real world usage needs real drivers for real hardware and they will be chasing this for years and years

well, yes, but where did those laws come from? Divine intervention?
The laws were written by a predominantly white legislature to enforce the segregation they wanted. State sanctioned violent enforcement was now on the table.
They'd do the same today if they could garner enough votes and use the cops to beat ugly women who try to use the restroom because of their transgender panic

I don't know what kind of brain worm this is, but if you give money to any adult ➡️➡️➡️ that is income and they need to pay taxes on it. Any money or asset you receive must be taxed. Period. Just because you share some DNA doesn't mean you get a free pass.

this is shocking news to me and I'm glad to hear it. This might actually give Peertube a chance, and in a couple years the market will be flooded with so many cheap GPUs....
