It’s true it could be better. They used to be more open source. Like they used to just publish their firmware source as they released it. Now days they hold back the current generation till the next gen is out. They mentioned this was so they could be more competitive with companies that do less R&D and more cloning.
Like even their slicer was just reskinned etc. it’s in peoples rights to reskin an open source slicer but I see why they did it.
Maybe “was” is the better word. Still better than things like Bamboo though.
Solaris was beautiful. But it could have been more secure if it had Mandatory Access Controls. One compromised app running as root, or one privilege elevation exploit and without mandatory access controls you’re done.
Even with user contained exploits without MAC you expose way too much.
Edit: Turns out Solaris had a MAC enabled variant called Trusted Solaris! I could have seen myself using this if Sun was still around and OpenSolaris had panned out.
I like the fact that it is a solid mandatory access control system. With SELinux you are substantially more safe than without.
For example. Let’s say you are running a compromised version of OpenSSH. Threw a XZ style back door a hacker gets in as OpenSSH (which runs as root).
Without SELinux the system is fully owned. With SELinux the attacker can only access what OpenSSH needs to access even if they have root. They can’t just chmod files and folders wherever. That means your photos and application data are still secure. With the pre written SELinux policies this applies not just for OpenSSH but for every piece of software installed on your system. Everything is limited to the exact folders, ports, and system capabilities that it needs and no more. Even stuff like seperate websites being served under Nginx. You can have Nginx-subgroup-1 and Nginx-subgroup-2 where the applications can’t see each other even though they are being run as the Nginx user.
I don’t trust any Linux distro without this security layer.
It’s a little difficult to learn and master, but it’s totally worth it if you care about security.
I mean it is true. They did help elect Trump. Before the election there were a ton of .ml accounts doing their best to get progressives to be politically apathetic. They were indistinguishable from right wing saboteurs.
Kind of the opposite actually. PTX is in essence nvidia specific assembly. Just like how arm or x86_64 assembly are tied to arm and x86_64.
At least with cuda there are efforts like zluda. Cuda is more like objective-c was on the mac. Basicly tied to platform but at least you could write a compiler for another target in theory.
I mean they’re synced super fast to every file system. It works really well. Wayyy wayyy faster than nextcloud too. You can access them on that file system. If you want to “directly” access them you can always use the fuse driver. This being said there isn’t really a need to because all the files just are synced to your file system.
Fair. If you have access to a crusher then maybe I can see not encrypting. But even then with non encrypted drives files can be recovered even after deleting etc.
Nice. Does it work well for you? How does it compare?
