You believing Serbia is part of “the East” is hilarious. They’re the S in BRICS, right? 😂

AMD side-channel attack coming soon 🎉
Mate, “the West” isn’t limited to Western Europe, the USA, Canada, and Australia. Australia is the same longitude as China. Are you going to say it’s not the West because of that?
The West was laughing and pointing at China. “Look at them surveilling their citizens! So cringe.” Meanwhile, people massively bought into surveillance capitalism, gobbled up all the bullshit about “if you have nothing to hide”, and look where it’s taking us. Yet people continue to buy Google products, swear that Malus won’t ever be evil and store their lives on iPhones and Macs, they vote for right-wing candidates who talk about building walls, surveilling the poor, foreign, and different, and don’t somehow fail to see how their countries are slowly becoming more China-like.
On June 6, 2024, this signal handler race condition was fixed by commit 81c1099 (“Add a facility to sshd(8) to penalise particular problematic client behaviours”), which moved the async-signal-unsafe code from sshd’s SIGALRM handler to sshd’s listener process, where it can be handled synchronously:
https://github.com/openssh/openssh-portable/commit/81c1099d22b81ebfd20a334ce986c4f753b0db29
Because this fix is part of a large commit (81c1099), on top of an even larger defense-in-depth commit (03e3de4, “Start the process of splitting sshd into separate binaries”), it might prove difficult to backport.
Oh shit, now squash on merge folks can claim “defense-in-depth”.
Always makes me think of this comic by geek and poke
What’s up with Owncloud? Why did devs leave for Nextcloud? And what happened to prevent that from happening again?
I too dislike that Nextcloud is in PHP, but if Owncloud went closed-source, then opened it up again (not saying that’s the story here), who’s to say it won’t happen again? Putting my eggs in that basket might seem quite dangerous as I don’t want my server to suddenly stop working and sit behind a paywall or something because management decided they want to make a quick euro.
The “what do we even pay you for?” is just like with projects:
“why isn’t this finished yet?”
We have to add tests and make sure we’ve tried to cover our bases.
“that’s not necessary, if it works now, just release it”
That’s not-
“I don’t care, I pay the bills”
Sure thing boss.
*a few weeks later*
“This thing doesn’t work”
Yeah, it’s what we wanted to test.
“Well why didn’t you?”
😐
Well done. That dev doesn’t have to put up with that shit. People still treat opensource devs like free labor, pressuring them as if they are entitled to a product. If an opensource project is important to you or your company, contribute in some way that doesn’t pressure the dev, otherwise stfu.
So trying to hack hackthebox is not permitted? Confusion is the name of the game
Probably a bug in censorship that they now consider a feature. Most likely it can’t find the right sentence to censor, so it just doesn’t try.
Good job on not reading it and understanding absolutely nothing 👏
Believe it or not, I can be concerned about both.
Yes you can, most people aren’t. In real life, by far the most common response I’ve gotten when talking about privacy is 😴 . My colleagues in tech will hotly debate China’s surveillance, but happy use face ID on their iPhone, upload their entire life to Google or iCloud (including recordings of therapy sessions), send their blood into do a heritage check, nearly exclusively use Amazon for shopping, have an Amazon Ring camera at their door, and so much more.
You are the minority.
More about the part about stealing information. Most people barely look at permissions.
A flashlight app needs access to my calls, microphone, clipboard, filesystem, and network? Sure, I’ll install it.
or
Facebook needs access to all permissions? Oh is that what the popup said when I installed it?
All Temu had to do was ask and people would grant it.
Because I find USAian more appropriate. USA isn’t a representative of two entire continents.
Not sure if you’re trolling now 😂 Good meme.
It’s funny that every time someone points out the pot calling the kettle black the training kicks in to shout “whataboutism” and it must be “wumao”. It’s almost a meme. You don’t think an article about Xi Ping’s government warning about USAian surveillance would be mocked and ridiculed due to their Great Firewall? That wouldn’t be “whataboutism” though, right? It would be a “critical opinion”?
So just like the majority of USAian apps out there? I think Temu fits right in. Why are people so concerned about what China is doing with their data, but not the very countries they live in or (more importantly) the dominant online surveillance presence: the USA?
It’s the most wanted feature.
I think if people really want it, they can pool together on a bounty.
It’ll be the topic of major news outlets the world around. The BBC will have a live interview with the developers of Mint and Bazzite, governments will decide to invest in opensource to replace Windows, Mac and any other closed source viruses, there will be a Linux User Foundation that collects money purely for linux (unlike the Linux Foundation) where people can apply for jobs to work on the kernel with entry-level positions like intern and junior, the Opensource User Foundation will be founded to propagate opensource wherever and whenever possible, … it’ll be glorious!
We will truly enter a better world, all thanks for 5% penguin.
It’s a keyboard shortcut, that calls a script which pastes the contents of a file into the clipboard and sends keystrokes to the OS to paste (Ctrl+P). I’d prefer if lemmy frontends gave the option of adding a signature, but alas… in the interim, this has to do. There’s no time for me to learn whichever framework they’re using to whip together a PR and have it rejected.
