Looking at the logs if my Stable horde worker, more then half of requests made were to generate porn. They’d be shooting themselves in the foot regardless of if the filter worked as intended.

No one’s gonna talk about how they turned referral links into a piramid scheme?

Next DEFCON is in two months, can’t wait to see them get absolutely pwned.

Run the BIOS self tests.

Something’s definitely broken (TPM errors, self test errors, graphical artifacts), but I can’t tell what from the image. I would guess motherboard problems, or a subtly damaged CPU.

Could also be more then one problem in the case of over voltage (worst case consequence of PSU damage), or intermittent failure from under voltage (should be fixed with a new PSU).

I don’t think so, unless the pirate left a calling card. If you want to make sure, just make the same sheet in pirated and non pirated versions, and compare the file. (They are zip archives, so that will let you see the raw XML)

This would be real nice if this let you easly run commands as SYSTEM or TrustedInstaller from a script, not just as Admin. Not only can Admin be reached from the “Run as Admininstrator” menu option, is actualy quite limited for messing around with system files. For the most part, Admin lets you mess with system settings/registry, and user files, but not with a lot if system/application files without TAKEOWNing everything.

Probably an IR receiver module or photodiode.

UTF-8 for plain text, trying to figure out the encoding, especially with older files/equipment/software is super annoying.

Just add -a for auto compression.

The true enterprise solution is to disable IPv6, if you disable IPv4 you might be surprised to see how many sites and services, even those run by large companies require IPv4.

Well I memorized mine: ::1

So many sites just outsource to content farms and have flooded the internet with SEO crap for years. With automation making this easier and cheaper it will probably only get worse.

Right now, generally well know sites like Wikipedia are fine, random peoples blogs are fine, but the first google result from some random company is almost guaranteed to be shit.

More context please: What happened? What were you doing? What does you setup look like?

It’s still there in modern Linux at include/math-emu/double.h

Counterexample: the many cases of large companies (Best buy, Cisco, Skype etc) being sued over violations of the GNU GPL. The original authors of the code often get awarded millions in damages because a large company stole their work.

Copyrights don’t just benefit the rich, in fact they severely limit what big companies can do with what you create. On the other hand, the current copyright term in most places (70 years after the author’s death) is just ridiculous, and simply guarantees that you will not live to see most content you saw as a kid move into the public domain, while the current owners continue to make money that the original author will never see.

I actually get 2x the battery life of windows on my ThinkPad. If you run a distro like Arch or Gentoo you will have to configure some things to get good battery life, but with Mint or something it just works™. If you want a whole lot of battery life you could get a laptop that has a replaceable battery, like the T480 (still plenty powerful for Linux), then your max life is limited only by how many extra batteries you are willing to carry.

Zen blead and now this? Why is SIMD so hard? All you have to do is add a wide ALU to process more data at once.

Usually you can still enter fastboot, just not do anything except factory reset, or flash signed firmware.

Facebook want enraged users, enraged users are engaged users. They don’t care about mental health or enjoyment, just how long you stay on Facebook.
