Not really, I have no idea what a foot is. But I can just look at yhe tiles and know they are 1*1 meter

New comment by NotEvil in "Nix 2.24 is vulnerable to (remote) privilege escalation"

NotEvil — Tue, 10 Sep 2024 09:59:43 +0000

That's not a patch. It's just downgrades the nix version to 23 in nixpkgs.

It doesn't help people who are already using the vulnerable version and also new users cuz installers install latest versions

New comment by NotEvil in "Small asteroid to hit Earth's atmosphere today"

Not a astrophysicist but I would guess it's due to atmospheric drag. Higher velocity objects will burn more quickly

Sorry, but which part of security. User can't pretend to be another registered user. They won't have the private keys.

What am I missing.

The problem isn't the employee or the hiring process. It's the security infrastructure! One compromised account, supposedly from sales, shouldn't bring down the whole company.

New comment by NotEvil in "Please don't share our links on Mastodon"

NotEvil — Wed, 01 May 2024 22:20:06 +0000

The idea has been discussed. The main problem is that Mastodon is a zero-trust environment, and we can't trust the other server to send us the correct preview.

Not necessarily, it's open protocol with vim plugin. Mainly just ssh and running commands. And a part of ide running on server and client

Wezterm is feature parity with kitty. But can be configured in lua instead of a long custom text file with vim tag support

New comment by NotEvil in "Help seed Z-Library on IPFS"

NotEvil — Wed, 23 Nov 2022 15:34:50 +0000

We can't because nobody supports it. Only firefox has support for esni and it's behind an about:config

Can't recommend it more. The whole series is muah

You might wanna read the article. It argues the very point you are making.

Can confirm

New comment by NotEvil in "OneWeb will resume satellite launches with SpaceX as the launch provider"

NotEvil — Mon, 21 Mar 2022 16:24:16 +0000

I don't think so. That's not anti-competive. Its like intel refusing to make amd chips on intel fabs. Perfectly logical

New comment by NotEvil in "Lapce – Fast open-source code editor"

Every editor supports it now

And with the law. We whould have a backdoor in tls. And HTTPS will be meaningless

New comment by NotEvil in "WebRTC-HTTP ingestion protocol (WHIP)"

NotEvil — Wed, 16 Feb 2022 00:03:52 +0000

Question, Why encryption after quic. Well I know that quic 8s not adopted yet. But let's say if it does do we need the encryption provided inside webrtc. And whouldn't that be redundant. Spatially considering the whole point of RTC is to get a stream of data from one point to other as fast as possible.

New comment by NotEvil in "India Semiconductor Mission"

NotEvil — Sun, 30 Jan 2022 01:10:46 +0000

The point is not to produce semiconductor that goes against the likes of TSMC but to decoupe the supply lines for critical application (military, governments) from one source. The same reason they and every other country is building a gps replacement

New comment by NotEvil in "Android in Docker without QEMU/emulator"

NotEvil — Tue, 04 Jan 2022 12:51:53 +0000

Not all linux kernel leak to host. Docker security is way better than nefore. And there also projects like podman and docker unprivileged that don't require any root intraction to set up a kernel
