  • First win of the day. Thanks frog.

  • Agreed. It was Sophos.

  • I once tried wsl on my work machine instead of having to deal with cygwin or msys2. Unfortunately the virus scanner didn't like that a whole lot and my account was locked. Man do I love enterprise problems on top of normal problems.

  • RemindMe! 40 years "check hydraulic press channel"

  • Looks fun to me. But hey, not everyone is a dino person.

  • Damn, those hands are huge!

  • The Wii game on the other hand is a collector's item.

  • League of Legends and I regret every moment of it.

  • Most people, including myself, seem to agree, that ads were never the problem. When YouTube started, it had ads too and nobody cared. But the ads got worse and websites started to shove them down our throats. I miss the times of a single banner below a video. I don't think Google and all the others realise just how much determined nerds can achieve. So far the ad blockers seem to win the race, minus some minor setbacks.

  • This meme jut keeps giving.

  • But you are saying, some probably can!

  • TIL about GPG keys in DNS records. Thanks, that is indeed a real benefit!

  • Can I get that with USB-C or do I need another adaptor? Thanks!

  • I can vouch for openSUSE Tumbleweed, too. Just today btrfs saved another day.

  • What a hero, single-handedly counteracting deforestation. You go squirrel man, you go!

  • Oh you are absolutely right about it being much harder to compromise the distro website as well as a key server. And as much as I am aware of the concept of the web of trust, I still do not get how you securely draw a relation between a key on a third party website and the publisher of a distro?

    I just checked for OpenSuse and Fedora. Both link to their keys on their own website, which both target files on their own domain. And even if they linked to a third party, what is stopping an attacker, who already managed to swap the iso and checksum file to also change the link to the key server?

    You are right about already imported keys. But why would someone, who does not already have distro xyz installed, have the keys of the publisher of distro xyz imported?

    Thanks in advance for the discussion!

  • It didn't just answer the question, it also has 277000000 alternative answers up it's sleeves. Truly impressive

  • Wait a minute, you guys got free time?

  • Also applies to all Apple (R) products.
