Are you aware of the pitfall I've mentioned here?: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17323068 Just making the possible passwords be 10 chars and contain chars out of a set of 62 (lowercase + uppercase + digits) gives…
Due to the fact how little 500 million passwords is out of the entire set of all possible passwords (even with single digit length) the 1 in 1000 false positive rate is extremely high actually. See my other comment:…
Does 1 in 1000 false positive mean that 1 in every 1000 passwords not on the list returns a true? If so, that's not good because good passwords vastly outnumber the bad ones so even a small false positive rate makes a…
These are not any rules. This haveibeenpwned list was made of password lists that were already leaked in hacks before and its author criticizes the 'now add a number', 'now add a symbol', 'now add a capital' rules that…
1. It just does return Session(), that's easy enough to find out[1]. 2. It doesn't really matter and maybe it's so they are kept closer since they are modified, Session merges your call provided and its own headers…
It's spelled Ad Nauseam and you shouldn't throw a commonly used Latin term around without specifying you're actually talking about an extension[0]. [0] - https://adnauseam.io/
The segmenting backfires hilariously between countries. I've often seen shows go "It was Mr. X all along!", everyone looked at the person who said that in shock and awe and realization, there was a sound cue, screen…
It's quite normal for there to be two sets of rules. Or maybe it's about the image of not being a "weaboo shit store" (as many people consider anything in anime style). Even YouTube that's famous for being trigger happy…
Valve can state 2 + 2 = 5 tomorrow, that doesn't make it true. They already have geoblocks in place for several reasons ranging from their own whim, to copyright to legal reasons. I can't buy certain animes[0] and I…
The Light Phone 2 features are very poor[0]. Any dumb mobile phone from mid 2000s has those that are guaranteed in [1], they also don't run a modified Android but a bespoke locked down OS, cost less (Light Phone 2 is…
There was a case on YouTube where a (sort of) satirical YouTuber Reactor (a fake over the top reaction channel) used a cut up footage of GradeAUnderA hating reaction channels as an ad on GradeAUnderA's own videos to…
There's also using ARM, Calyos stuff[0] Some old Macs were also 'potentially' silent if you were to today remove the HDD and the optical drive, which were the only mechanical parts[1]. [0] -…
That's a really nice line of thought. I'm no linux wizard but I've used Fedora for a few years for my laptop so if you want to ever ask about something basic we can exchange contact info.
I had that "creepy" moment but it was more silly than creepy to me. I was googling a lot about a certain piece of software (config, how to set this and that up with other things to work together, etc.) and that resulted…
This sadly sounds like a rip off of the venerable Bielefeld Conspiracy[0], just reapplied to an entire country. I have once entertained starting a conspiracy theory saying that unix shell pipes were originally created…
It's even harder to take them seriously after they said this about flat Mars to Musk: https://twitter.com/FlatEarthOrg/status/935644892721762305
Why not? Is Java + Swing very heavy or something? Is NetBeans in Swing or something else? I've used NetBeans for C, C++, PHP and HTML5 on my old Core 2 Duo with 2 Gigs of RAM on Fedora during my uni years and it was…
This is false equivalence. The electron app is ostensibly working for your benefit, just in a very inefficient way, not mining a currency using your resources to ship off to someone. You could argue that making users…
That might backfire on an HDD and it's a very convoluted scenario (loading from disk and decompressing when hogging all of the CPU). Many people even with a quad core i5/i7 might have a small SSD just for Windows and…
The website version of the game was 150 KB. You'd be hard pressed to find an engine or runtime (except electron as some people are saying it actually is..) to get a game like that (literally moving boxes and text) up to…
It would still look quite shady. It's also burning electricity, hogging your CPU and putting heat and stress onto your CPU which is way worse than just displaying an ad which costs literally nothing (or 1 or 2 cents for…
UnrealScrip is explicitly said to be both statically typed and inspired by Java a lot[0][1]. It just had lots of language features dedicated to the game, like networking, state machines, being preemptively multitasked,…

It's called jury nullification and it's sort of up in the air whether it's legal or oath breaking (I have no idea as I'm not American). https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jury_nullification
