This isn't my wheelhouse (still fascinating, though), so forgive the seemingly obvious question: Are problems like these more likely to occur partly because of the constant shortening of certificate lifespans? Or is that entirely orthogonal to the CA issue here? Edit: I was thinking of items...

The original headline (with a pun) was way more fun. I'm only seeing the "rare glimpse" one now.

I thought the driver was holding a Ren Faire-style turkey leg in the thumbnail. The reality was a bit more disappointing, but you probably shouldn't be eating one while driving, either.

For me, it's not about the blue vs. green color bubbles - it's about finally getting pictures and videos from iPhone-loving family members (namely, much older relatives) in a resolution that isn't 20 years old. Yes, I've gotten them to install other apps like Signal and WhatsApp. Yes, they...

I enjoy Flanagan's collaborations with Netflix, but the downside to them is that I don't think they've released physical media versions of them, far as I know. I would love something official for Midnight Mass, but if you want that one, you either have to sail the high seas, or get a bootleg...

Whoops. You're right. My mistake seems to be relatively common, and the end result is unfortunately the same - a proprietary black box says no and someone gets screwed.

AI is ALREADY being used as an excuse to deny care. I'm not optimistic. https://angrybearblog.com/2023/03/medicare-advantage-using-algorithms-to-turn-off-care-for-seniors

It would be a terrible shame if this company were hit with waves of ransomware and had all their data exfiltrated. The tears of sorrow I would shed.

Something I haven't seen answered yet, and am curious about: For most normal people without a security clearance, best practice generally dictates a password manager (PWM) of some sort, with a strong master password, hopefully coupled with some form of 2FA or security key. Some of these PWMs...

This is a pretty important point. I have no idea how H1 is paid, but having any bounties come out of the total amount H1 is paid for their triage service is an active disincentive to actually forwarding reports along, especially any potentially big/high value bugs. If this is the case, it...

This can't be a typical Chris Lee article. Usually those are both visually appealing and generally inscrutable, and I don't think I got any smarter since the last one.

Relatively compelling, especially as a spare/travel device, but the glass back gives me some pause. How does that flavor of Gorilla Glass hold up to falls and bumps?

Hey Sean: Ars' reporting (and subsequent comments) on this issue has been second to none, and other than the LA Times article (https://www.latimes.com/local/californi ... story.html), it's been THE source I've been pointing people to when they weren't sure what was going on, and wanted a bit...

I remember some positive noise being made a while back by Signal (the secure communications app) regarding SGX and Private Contact Discovery, which is a hell of a difficult problem (found the post - https://signal.org/blog/private-contact-discovery/). It was a pretty big breakthrough, and this...

It's the blu-ray release that has me excited. Even if the return isn't all that I hope it'll be, having the original in something other than FuzzyDisk will be worth it.

While I feel your pain as far as options are concerned, it's hard enough for me to find even ONE adult willing to give anything more complicated than Monopoly a try (and usually after I tell them how it SHOULD be played, versus the informal versions with the added 'house' rules). With some of...

Merger conditions, huh? Far as I can see, many of those merger conditions were vague, hard to enforce, and not a huge hurdle to further entrenchment and shitty behavior. https://truthonthemarket.com/2011/01/20 ... onditions/ Of course, none of those conditions included keeping...

If we could somehow monetize every occurrence of the phrase "Fuck you, Pai", I think we'd have enough money to build a nationwide fiber network, with service for every man, woman, and child. Alas...

A few people on HN had an interesting comments, which have me wondering: >All crash dump types, including heap dumps and full dumps [regarding data sent to MS]. >[Does this mean] they will store in their databases your private data you had in RAM when something or Windows crashed? Am I wrong...

According to some commenters on Hacker News (possibly Cloudflare employees), a list is being compiled here: https://github.com/pirate/sites-using-cloudflare The comments are worth reading: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13718752 Edit: Comment from Nick Sweeting (I don't know who he is...
