lurch,

i assume “ifnot” wasn’t edgy enough and makes inferior noises on custom mechanical keyboards? /s

lurch,

inb4 some kid will eat them 😆

lurch,

“… yes or no…”

lurch,

total darkness isn’t so good tho.

dim indirect light from behind the screen is best IMO and that’s also enough to find that rare key, as well as your drink without knocking it over and causing havoc.

lurch,

There are sites that respect the “do not track” setting of the browser and just display a small timed info on your first visit that cookies have been rejected. Examples: geizhals.eu , geizhals.de

lurch,

it’s still new for gentoo users who started installing that day and decided to go with openoffice from source.

lurch,

toothpaste used to come in metal tubes too. not even long ago. it’s like they saw everyone else was polluting and they wanted in too smh

lurch,

Maybe you already are ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

lurch,

Rookie mistake to not have secret crisp, peanut and cashew stashes hidden in reach everywhere comfy

It could tilt them out of the viewport, leaving just a corner in, like weird minimizing

lurch,

Did you live on a very fast spaceship maybe?

… or did you travel back to the start of 2023 multiple times, trying to fix the world? It would explain a lot of things.

lurch,

Even though comments are very helpful, often it’s even enough to name variables and methods/functions really good. At least do that. You don’t want i, j and value. Believe me. You want rowCount, colCount and deliveryOption instead. You just may not know it now, but you will, when it has to be changed in a few months.

lurch,

Mine gives useless bonus points for forwarding the test email or an actual phishing mail to their special security scanner account.

lurch,

There is, but if one gets through, they want us to forward it to this account that will be used to train, fine tune and improve the scanner for all mailboxes, as well as security training for employees.

lurch,

I don’t like the idea of free things having a “market-shate”. That’s like comparing knife cuts to bullets shot.

lurch,

You sure you want to use LUKS? It has a specific format that can be probed for almost like a known plain text.

lurch, (edited )

I mean that any attack gets more easy when you know, after it’s decrypted there are the bytes A, B and C at the locations X, Y and Z. It helps with brute force as well as hybrid attacks to find the master key.

LUKS does exactly have those specific Bytes at specific locations PLUS it has a marker that basically says “I am in this format and encrypted with this algorythm”.

lurch,

A good pasphrase helps the same for non-LUKS, but they still don’t have that specific weakness.

You can use cryptsetup without LUKS. However, something that starts to decrypt has to be unencryoted, so you can enter the password. Depending on how convenient it is for the user, it will leak some helpful info, like for example that the target is a valid file system that can be mounted or what cipher had been used.

to conceal this, you’d have to enter all it does manually in a shell/script without history. You could also add a number of bytes to skip as a sort of extra password and fill the start with random bytes, so it’s harder to find the start of the payload that is peobably a file system.

lurch,

If you use X and need to restart it, you can probably preemptively use XPRA to proxy your Xclients and move them to the new Xserver, except maybe for those that need low latency or DRM (e.g. games)

Good luck web devs (lemmy.world)

lurch,

They put touchscreens on doorstops now? /s

lurch,

So you can get through as quick as possible and don’t have to get out in this weirdo country /s

lurch,

I don’t actually use it that much to input commands, but many scripts I made pop one up to show details of what’s happening, e.g. how opening the VPN connection is going, what crypto module it’s currently loading or how many more iterations a macro will do.
