we were hacked.

How?

The remote code execution step of our toolchain was used to run remote code.

Is this not the equivalent of asking someone on the street to pay for a fence for your property so you don’t have to look at them?

I agree with the sentiment of being “a huge amount of effort”, but I also have issue when looking at things like the YouTube example. Honestly, in that scenario I’d rather it not have an animation than do something janky.

I think it’s one of those things where you can’t put a blanket statement on either side. If you’re going to put effort in (i.e. add animations), it should at least be not worse than doing nothing.

I think you might be underestimating uptake. Google suggests upwards of 50% usage. Also I’m fairly certain that a lot of residential infrastructure has been slowly moving to IPv6 in Australia at least. Not an overnight process, but it’s happening. Over here we have a lot of newer mobile plans offering IPv6 as well.

I think a big holdback is that a lot of larger corporations will still use IPv4/NAT setups at the top level, even if all of the hardware in the network supports it. “If it’s not broke don’t fix it.” The result is huge amounts of daily traffic coming from these institutions being IPv4 by default, with all devices in WiFi, etc, being lumped into the same group.

They’re using FPGAs.

Pretty much the same setup. I don’t really use playlists often though, and currently using syncthing to a NAS.

Interesting, but I’d have to say that I’ve been contempt just using an app that doesn’t suck (musicolet). The comments about battery could hold a point to me if I were going on a week long trip, or something of the like, but anywhere that would happen for me is somewhere that I wouldn’t be taking music/phone for distractions anyway.

I think the finer point I agree with is being able to just have a copy of your own music and play it without being belt-fed opinions or ads. Managing it is always a bit of a pain, but I’ve got a system that works for me, and MTP on android works better than trying to deal with iTunes in my books.

If you execute a parent, you end up with living or zombie children that you need to find and put down.

It’s true, that’s how it’s said down here! Usually by fans more so than just generally.

Not sure about mpv, but I use a gstreamer pipeline to tender cameras to the raw KMS terminal display. It works much more reliably (I.e. Predictable loading times and no stutter) compared to loading a DE first. Noting that it was on a low power RPI.

You need to get little bud a new shirts every few months with an extra spiderman pointing each time!

Ive been using Lynx Launcher. I wanted something quick, simple, effective, and this was it.

Luckily, someone has got an actual solution. Check out WindHawk. I use it to run a vertical taskbar.

I’ll admit, I haven’t looked at the code. I would stand by my comment of the unsafe block being a start point.

Countering that however, what is the difference to just debugging effectively? Not sure. I suppose it’s down to the people that identified it and fixed it at the end of the day to say if there was any benefit.

I think the other takeaway here is that it was found in a section marked “unsafe”. At the very least, that’s a useful tool for the Devs to isolate potential problem areas. Comparing that to a pure C codebase where the problem could be anywhere.

Puppy Linux might be an option if that project is still going.

We have similar kinda of boxes in Australia, usually they are monitoring stations for the energy infrastructure provider. Can be cellular or long range radio links.
