Honestly, this might be good for the ad industry. Force them to get to the point quicker. Alternatively, we could see a return of epilepsy inducing flashing ads....
I like the idea of IRL billboard ads being "dismissable". If the ad is too obnoxious, someone gets to press a button and wipe the billboard.
Maybe I'm mis-remembering, but I definitely needed to call to activate XP. I have an MSDN account, so had keys, but definitely needed to call a few times. Its a pretty unforgettable experience. Maybe it was something to do with the msdn keys not being accepted?
Over the phone was useful for activating stuff without internet. Like VMs that you dont want on the internet. It was basically required for XP boxes, as they would lock up after 30 days.
Haven't needed to use it for the more modern windows, I just left them unactivated.
Early in the GNOME /wayland transition, there was a bug I hit where you could drag windows off the edge of the screen, and somehow the desktop would scroll. It was kinda cool conceptually, but completely broken functionally, as it was hard to scroll back.
Edit: Wayland was actually the solution, Xorg was the problem:
Crowdsec does not provide DDOS protection in the same manner as Cloudflare. You can use crowdsec to block the traffic at your server, but it has already reached your server, and will be using up your ingress bandwidth regardless. So if you were DDOS'd, your site will go down.
Cloudflare prevents the traffic ever reaching your server, while allowing the legitimate traffic through. They block it on their servers, which have much higher bandwidth than any VPS provider has.
Yes. Separate out each part out. You are currently publishing the equivalent of of a compiled binary.
Split it up, and use a script to "compile" it back into the mega shell script.
It means that changes to each file can tracked (and audited) individually, you can conditionally compile bits in or out, and most usefully, you can write tests for the individual components.
They may not have been formally vetted, but they are in the sense that the majority of those 200 crates are used widely in everyone else's projects.
But yeah, this is definitely a blind spot, not just for rust, but all modern build systems that accept code from various sources. At least cargo vet is a step in the right direction.
Its not administered by the local smackhead, a trained doctor does it...
Fentanyl isnt unsafe, it just requires precise dosaging. The drug dealer passing it off as heroine doesnt care about accurate dosing, but the doctor who committed years off their life learning about it does care.
I use a separate nuc, and even still, rebooting the router is a non-trivial exercise. The internet was wired into the top shelf of a cupboard, so need a step ladder to get to it.
Since getting a second pihole setup I haven't had any issues, so I think I'm okay now. Hopefully it fails over the christmas break when I'm home :D
Thank you [Honorary] Pedantry :D. "ad" just felt wrong somehow, but you are correct. I have fixed it, sorry for the pain and suffering I caused you :D
