Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI (arstechnica.com)

Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority, President Brad Smith testified to Congress on Thursday, promising that security will be "more important even than the company’s work on artificial intelligence."...

Never been an issue for me debian+kde+steam it started right up the first time i tried. No tweaking needed.

I am 50/50 between incompetence. Or so they can keep on charging extra for a static ip.

sep ,

Goverments (depending on juristiction) have laws requiering isp's to keep track of cgnat port combos. So not only is there no privacy from ipv4 cgnat. Now the isp must also spend a lot of money on the nat state tracking database.
If you need that kind of privacy, use a vpn and the tor onion network.

Yes it does take extra work. Problem is often that that work was done in the past when isp implemented their ipv4 metodology. And instead of using the ipv6 rollout as a chance to improve their design and operations. They just add ipv6 into their ipv4 design and methodology. They encumber their ipv6 rollout with their decades of technical debt and cruft they have normalized in their ipv4 world. And it will makes things harder for themselfs when trying to turn off ipv4 in the core.

While that may be true. The filter bubble is also a very real thing.
Social media sites earn their money by your attention. And try to keep it as long as possible, with all the tricks in the books, and some they invented.
So when someone belives something. They search about it. And belive they have done research. When they find what the site belive keeps them engaged.

Want to know more? sorry, been playing to much helldivers 2. ;)

The science is not conclusive tho. Perhaps i am in a bubble... messes with the head..

Debian stable on servers.
Debian testing on the daily driver.
Gives you a rock solid server, that will pull absolutly no suprises.
And your daily driver gives you a playground for what comes in the next upgrade.

I know it is a complete joke. But every time i think of c++ i am reminded of this prank article https://www-users.york.ac.uk/~ss44/joke/cpp.htm

There is a wast difference between the internet. That gives you access to information.
And social media with algoriths fine tuned to keep you there as long as possible.
Cameras everywhere is for sure a disaster for anyones sanity and development.

Jump to 27 minute mark for the talk with jonathan haidt.

Like the exact same thing can not happen in a closed source codebase. It probably does daily. Since closed codebases the due dilligence and reviews cost money, and nobody can see the state. They are intentionally neglected.
Open source nor closed source is immune to the 5$ wrench hack

What the social media algorithms did to teenagers are for sure a catastrophe involving blood. Suicide went up 48%. 131% for girls.

Jonathan haidt have a public repository of all research on the subject.

Great sucess!

Xfree86 was sonetimes a mess. And i did not have a browser anymore when it refused to start. So man pages only.

I once rm -rf all the db files of a running database: Recovered the files via inodes since they were all still open on the running database, that was a mess.

For a foss project irc logs of channels are important makes irc into google able knowledge. For privacy, use matrix and encryption.

Is it really center-right? I think it is more far right and facist extreme right. Atleast when observed from scandinavia

sep ,

Unatended-upgrades keeps all systems securly patched. But there is a need for a reboot for kernel updates now and then.

sep ,

I find this to be least acurate with debian.. on other distros a patch may or may not install a new version of that package. that can bring changes to the behavior.
On debian stable the security issues are backported. So you can patch and be sure that there is no changes to the behavior of the system. It is basically the reason all vm's i manage are debian stable.
It is also true they never crash. But that is expected of linux. It is the extreme reliabillity that is the debian killer feature for me.

Fucking wizard!

Shitbucket!

For matrix there is a no for client removes image metadata. Did you check all clients? I would imagine it was client dependent.

Everything. O365/outlook do not use normal email protocols. On normal exchange you can enable imap. Do not know about o365 tho. Also unfortunatly you loose a lot of other features if you dare to step outside the walled garden.

old post, but I so wonder why you got downwoted for saying it like it is. a good isp will give you a /56, the minimum best practice. a great isp will give you a /48
you'r router will also participate in the wan /64, but that is just the uplink, and not something that will be used on the lan.
