“America in 2016 was perfect until orange man ruined it, we simply need to return to 2016 and everything will be ok”

a surprisingly disappointing article from ars, i expect better from them.

the author appears to be confusing “relay attacks” with “cloning” and doesn’t really explain the flow of the attach that well.

really this just sounds like a complicated MitM attack, using the victim’s phone as the “middle” component between the victim’s physical card and the attacker’s rooted phone.

the whole “cloning the UID attack” at the end of the article is irrelevant, NFC payment cards don’t work like that.

20 years? more like 5

if this is your first time doing a big trip together, honestly, forget about it being prefect. it won’t be, and that’s ok. trips don’t need to be perfect to be meaningful, in fact, i’ve found the opposite to be true. the more wild and unexpected the adventure is, the more memorable and important it becomes to me.

so I’d say it’s best to keep an idea of things you’d like to see or do, but also be flexible and willing to adapt. traveling with someone that forces everyone to stick to a rigid itinerary is never fun and is a good way to ruin the trip. all it takes is one lost bag or one missed train to throw all your careful planning out the window. better to roll with the punches than self destruct when that happens.

i’m curious how you think you know all of this? sounds to me like you’ve created a neat straw man that lives in your head for you to get mad at

TLS doesn’t encrypt the host name of the urls you are visiting and DNS traffic is insanely easy to sniff even if you aren’t using your ISPs service.

the hostname of a website is explicitly not encrypted when using TLS. the Encrypted Client Hello extension fixes this but requires DNS over HTTPS and is still relatively new.

just a guess, but in order for an LLM to generate or draw anything it needs source material in the form of training data. For copyrighted characters this would mean OpenAI would be willingly feeding their LLM copyrighted images which would likely open them up to legal action.

computer science teaches you the theories of computation which absolute starts with mechanical computers.

if one didn’t study Turing’s tape machine in their compsci program then they should demand their money back.

yeah silly me for supporting artists with my money but also downloading drm-free copies of things so I can actually exercise a semblance of ownership. but sure, keelhaul me so you can keep your sense of smug superiority.

AI is a tool that is fundamentally based on the concept of theft and plagiarism. The LLM training data comes from artists and creators that did not consent to their work being plagiarized by a hallucinating machine.

it literally explains what they’re for in the product listing:

These labels aid your warehouse operations.

• Categorize inventory, reorder points, product dating or special instructions.

• Apply these labels to pallets, boxes and shelves for easy identification.

• Easy to write on.

could be this?

i think the word is a response to the complete evaporation of steel jobs in america. it’s hard to see your job go away and see your same product appear on the market at a lesser quality, even if there might be reasons for that lower quality.

i would argue that leftists constantly arguing about what their words even mean is one of the biggest turn offs.

people don’t love pedantry.

butane inserts are great for a lot of people, but there’s just no beating the nostalgia of that og flame. if you use your lighter regularly it’s easy enough to keep it topped off every two weeks or so.

zippo also sells a small fuel canister that is airtight, if you keep a bag on you that’s a great way to have a backup

faster can still lead to battery life improvements. if the CPU is able to complete tasks in less time, it can then enter a lower power state sooner which will result in less battery usage overall

just use wireshark/tcpdump/etc and trace the packets until you find the issue.

I’d also suggest you start simple and just get plain ol HTTP working first since your problem has nothing to do with certs or any of that

VPN and sleep peacefully knowing you can skip a month of patches without thinking about it.

life’s too short to worry about exposed services. Just set up the remote VPN clients so only traffic meant for your network is tunneled and your family will never even know it’s there.

assuming you have a GNU toolchain you can use the find command like so:

find . -type f -executable -exec sh -c '
case $( file "$1" ) in (*Bourne-Again*) exit 0; esac
exit 1' sh {} \; -print0 | xargs -0 -I{} cp {} target/

This first finds all executable files in the current directory (change the “.” arg in find to search other dirs), uses the file command to test if it’s a bash file, and if it is, pipes the file name to xargs which calls cp on each file.

note: if “target” is inside the search directory you’ll get output from cp that it skipped copying identical files. this is because find will find them a free you copy them so be careful!

note 2: this doesn’t preserve the directory structure of the files, so if your scripts are nested and might have duplicate names, you’ll get errors.
