Another way to read this statement is that passwords simply doesn't work. We need something different. Something better.

And from the comments we find this:

I think this also needs much better clarification. What has happened since 2012 which makes this newsworth now? And where is the LeakedSource report they cite but never link to? Where can I get more info?

This is very bad reporting.
Not at all. As I understand it (I looked into this when I was doing a big fix-up on the OpenOffice cluster of articles on Wikipedia), NeoOffice tracked OOo (and then ooo-build/Go-oo) until 3.1.1, when it stopped doing that and just maintained that codebase. Though they pull in fixes from LO and AOO, but I don't know how substantial that is - NeoOffice is only two guys.
Isn't that an extension port rather than a modular phone? You can add some features via extension modules but the phone itself isn't modular. And technically that's "just" the phone acting as a USB host, coupled to the software support for modules.

> The TV still works great as a display

No it doesn't. Every Smart TV I've seen has horrible ergonomics. It takes a while to boot, the remote has lag, it takes a long time to change from one input to another, it takes a huge amount of time to start the app that is responsible for changing inputs.

They just suck.

Yeah, they have inputs and everything, but android-based UI is hands down the worst UI I have ever had to use, and this included typing magic commands into the mainframe of airline global distribution systems.

Oh yeah. You want perfectly synchronised audio/video streams, just like you had before? Not possible with Smart TVs.

Nothing against hot potatoes, though. With butter.
Very little in the immediate, physical execution of airliners have changed (but very many small things certainly has - and a 747-8 being delivered today is a rather different machine than a -100 rolling of the assembly line in 1970, and the 787 is an amazing machine to fly, the air pressure and humidity controls, enabled by the composite body, make a huge difference).

But prices have dropped steeply, democratising air travel to an unprecedented degree with an unprecedented speed. Practically anyone who can afford to go on holiday at all can afford to fly somewhere, rather than being limited to the range/speed of ground transportation. The kind of trips to Greece/Spain etc that are completely routine these days in northern Europe were once-in-a-lifetime experiences for my (reasonably well to do) grandparents.

Everybody loves hating on Ryanair/Spirit Airlines/increasingly dense economy class layouts, but the fact is that you can in many cases (if you're out early) buy a discounted premium economy ticket (or even if you're lucky business class) for what regular economy tickets would cost just 20 years ago, much less 40, and get a much better product.

> Everything is nice and responsive; no complaints.

My parents-in-law have the same TV. The UI is the most frustrating UI I ever had to use. Please give me back the dumb 1-level-deep dumb UI.

Apart from how hard is to actually do anything (because the Android crap just gets in the way), everything is so slow and takes forever. There's so much lag in everything. So much time until the damn app that I need starts. So much time until the damn thing boots.

With the previous TV, it took less than half a second to change inputs. Everything was smooth and responsive. Now it takes about 10 seconds, and it's 10 very, very frustrating seconds.

Plus, the worst of all, audio and video are not synchronised on this TV. How can it have such a basic problem, I can't explain. By turning image processing and all that crap off (as much as possible), A/V sync has gotten better, but it's still noticeable to me, and, very, very, very annoying.

So I split A/V signal, and route the digital audio through a box that delays it as much as the TV delays the image, so I can get them in sync. But depending on the load on the TV, the delay is not constant. It changes during the movie. It's the most frustrating piece of equipment I ever laid hands on.

Agreed, but in this case those reasons actually make it more valid, because there will be no way for someone else to reverse the decision once it is made.

It closes the door on some zombie resurrection of openoffice and essentially cedes the identifier to libreoffice.
At first I thought it was a pun on library names: lib-reoffice.
"Well consider it lesson learned for not just going with an iPhone in the first place"

Been there bought the tshirt.

Apple quality went down and they don't care anymore since they wanted to become a luxury brand (e.g. screen with yellow blobs, bad iPhone reception, Wifi trouble on every Air, forced hardware upgrades b/c new iOS versions are slow). OSX is especially buggy with every release, especially SMB.

So I'm not a happy Apple user either.

> A web browser is a locally running program

That is of course correct. I should have worded it a bit more technical, I guess :-)

Support of unix domain sockets depends on the program, so not all support that, but Redis and memcache do. At least for those you can prevent the browser from connecting to them using TCP.

I guess another option would be to just limit what ports a browser can access. Some ports a blocked by default, but I feel like a whitelist instead of a blacklist makes more sense and I'm fairly certain that most of my daily browser usage would still work if only 80, 443 and maybe 8080 would be whitelisted. Is there a way to archive this (in chrome/Firefox) without reverting to some outside sandbox?

It's odd, for a reason, even as a young kid, the 747 was the de-facto standard for "king of airplanes".
He did an amazing feat in such a short time in accomplishing the design. There is a fantastic documentary shown on the Smithsonian channel ever few weeks about the design of the 747.

Broken window fallacy is talking about the total (net) economy. It's perfectly possible for one person to come out ahead while the economy as a whole goes nowhere or even down.

For instance, if you are the only window repair person in town and you go around breaking other people's windows, you will certainly profit. But the amount you profit will be completely offset by the window owners' loss. (Presuming you do not go to jail, of course.)
It just so happens I randomly caught a documentary about the development of the 747 recently. From an engineering perspective it's amazing. A few tidbits:

- it went from an idea on a gold course to engineering prototype in 2.5 years in an era almost without computers

- Boeing had to build what I believe is the world's largest building to make them

- Boeing saw the 747 as a stopgap while their main focus was on the (doomed SST so Sutter had to try to go any resources. With the SST's cancellation and huge development cost it almost bankrupted Boeing.

- all of this was before simulators so they basically had to build one and take off and see how it flew or even if it flew.

- for much of the development there were no engines powerful enough to fly it, eventually a Pratt and Whitney prototype was used that had a nasty habit of exploding for over a year of flight testing before they figured out why. Nowadays engines are so reliable that the four engine design is essentially dead and many planes will serve their entire life never having their engines replaced.

- the distinctive (now iconic) design with the cockpit and upper deck bulging at the front was to fulfill a dual purpose as a cargo plane. You open up the nose and still get the full body height to load and remove cargo.

- when Boeing agreed to make it (because of a Pan Am request) they had no idea what it would look like.

I think the show was an episode of Mighty Aircraft. Well worth watching.

RIP joe Sutter.

Botox is very efficient and generally lasts about 3-6 months. In my experience there are no complications and it really does work.

I have not tried it on my hands but according to my sister it is quite uncomfortable, they give local anesthesia for the hands but not for say armpits. Lots of needle pricks is not that fun and I believe you can get some bruises that go away quickly.

The treatment is very quick, about 10-15 minutes. In Sweden it costs about €150 for the injections and €150 for the actual Botox (the Botox cost counts towards insurance scheme to cap medicine costs) if done privately.
My father's been a happy Ubuntu user for years (and a fairly resentful one for a few more years --- he still misses the old GNOME user interface and loathes Unity). He mainly uses it for Gimp and LibreOffice.

When he had to switch from OpenOffice to LibreOffice he was pretty close to packing it all in and using something else; his argument was: why should he trust a package produced by an organisation that can't keep their own house in order?

That is, from the outside the schism between OpenOffice and LibreOffice is basically invisible; they're both considered to be the same thing, because they produce the same software. It's seen as an internal conflict, and it's a big reputational problem.

Yes, I chose rather dense countries, but I also chose countries where I've found that having a car is more of a liability than an asset. That's a rough metric I use for "is the rail and public transport system good?" Did I choose dense countries and declare that they had good public transport, or did I choose countries with good public transport and discover they were dense?

I've never been to Scandinavia, so I have no experience to fairly judge.

It's a neat idea, but I feel like users need to be rewarded for it to really take off. Look at Patreon as an example: If you support someone there, they will often deliver rewards every month and payment is tied to the reward.

This straightforward implementation ignores some of the privacy ideas, but might be a starting point: If a site notices I'm using a Brave-compliant browser, it tells me that I can unlock some new articles, music, artwork, search features, or whatever by funding my Brave wallet and clicking the 'support' button. Once supported, they deliver the missing content.

Even a simple 'Thank you for supporting us with Brave' would probably encourage use.

When a Commercial Rocket Blows Up, Who Pays?
I too am of this opinion and am surprised this view isn't widely shared. With DDR4, we should be asking for a refund and/or starting a class-action suit, yet we're putting up with software 'mitigations' instead.

I extensively test all the hardware I buy (CPU: LINPACK, RAM: MemTest86+) and if it fails any of those tests, it gets returned as "not fit for purpose". I've done this successfully a few times. A lot of other enthusiasists/power users do the same too, especially if they're overclocking, and searches on other forums show plenty of users testing and finding (mostly other, not rowhammer) errors in newly-bought RAM even when not overclocking. But as noted in the threads I linked to, manufacturers may be trying to cover this up and downplay its severity. Even in the original paper on rowhammer, the authors didn't disclose which manufacturers and which modules were affected, although I think this should really be treated like the FDIV bug: name and shame. I blame political correctness...
To me "smart TV" means "we're going to interrupt you randomly to tell you the privacy policy or the T&Cs on something you never use have changed".

The best thing you can do for your TV is not connect it to the Internet. Get a Roku box or similar for all your streaming needs.
Rowhammer itself has been around a while, and is only 50% of this attack that has been posted.

The other bit is the newer idea (well, old idea, newer actual implementation); memory deduplication by your hypervisor leads to a very minor timing fingerprint when you write to a page of memory that had previously been deduplicated IE the same physical page was shared amongst multiple VM's because it was identical.. until you wrote to it and the OS/hardware had to then Copy-on-Write it out to your own dedicated copy; that has a higher latency than a memory page that is already available directly for writing to you.
StartCom has always been scummy. We've created hundreds of certificates in clear violation of their ToS and they ignored it after we payed some hush money; and then there's the whole "asking for money to revoke certificates affected by heartbleed" affair. And StartEncrypt.

Both should be revoked.
