You've answered your own question. DNS blocks are not just "easily circumnavigated", they're completely ineffective. Use a different resolver, run your own resolver, add the domain to a hosts file… DNS is the simplest and easiest method of finding a site's IP address, but hardly the only method. Even very non-technical users can locate and follow simple step-by-step guides to get around a DNS block. This order is akin to having someone's name purged from the phone book when there are many other ways to find the same information. Given that the DNS block will be ineffective in preventing any of the (alleged and mostly imaginary) harm from the (alleged) copyright infringement which the target of the order isn't even involved in, what purpose is served by issuing the injunction?

At the very least Quad9 deserves compensation for any costs incurred in implementing this injunction, given that they are being unwillingly dragged into the middle of a dispute between two other unrelated parties. Ideally this compensation would come directly out of the judge's salary for issuing such a pointless injunction, but I suppose it could be paid by the plaintiff instead for requesting the injunction in the first place.
I also think it was more about ARM.....I dont like using it since it wont work on my ARM Chromebook, there are also the huge battery drain issues on Android and mediocre video/audio calling
I'd say the key problem is that our electoral system and the structure of our government are broken in a few very serious ways, most of which are nearly impossible to fix, in no small part because fixing most of them would require at least one of our two major political parties to be OK with voting themselves into a weaker position (since some of the most important problems cause there to be only two viable parties at a time and fixing them would weaken the position of both those parties), or else they'd require a constitutional amendment, which is even less likely.

Most of our other problems are a consequence of that.

Not the person you replied to, but a GitHub issue thread [1] seems quite close.

I find it somewhat confusing and potentially troubling that (from a few minutes of searching so correct me if I’m wrong) a full-featured ARM-native fork seems to have been created in the community, but the team apparently doesn’t want to go the extra mile of designing the build/CI system to incorporate this as an official release.

Twitter's new CEO highlights corporate Australia's lack of cultural diversity
Tavis explains clearly why he thinks it's well maintained in the post, complete with linkages to source code. To paraphrase:

[...] NSS was one of the very first projects included with oss-fuzz [...]

[...] Mozilla has a mature, world-class security team. They pioneered bug bounties, invest in memory safety, fuzzing and test coverage. [... all links to evidence ...]

Did Mozilla have good test coverage for the vulnerable areas? YES.

Did Mozilla/chrome/oss-fuzz have relevant inputs in their fuzz corpus? YES.

Is there a mutator capable of extending ASN1_ITEMs? YES.

I don't think at any point anyone assumed anything.

> If you have unknown, or unpredictable access patterns, such as data lakes, analytics, or user generated content, the S3 Intelligent-Tiering storage class now automatically includes a new Archive Instant Access tier at the same price and milliseconds retrieval as the new S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval storage class. Beginning today, customers of S3 Intelligent-Tiering automatically save up to 68% for data not accessed in the last 90 days.

Lots of people using the Intelligent-Tiering storage class just got a huge cost reduction for free. If you haven't looked into it, you really should, especially if you use S3 for objects that are usually >1MB, stored for >30 days, and at least some of those objects go more than 30 days without being accessed. The downside is really limited; at worst you will pay a small fixed amount more than the Standard storage class, unlike normal Infrequent Access or Glacier Instant Retrieval storage classes where you can potentially end up with huge retrieval bills if objects are accessed repeatedly.

you can't do this on iOS. Even if you could get a phone with a large enough SDcard, natively ... transfering that much to the phone would be prohibitively painful. And one might be tempted to go through that once, but to go through it every time you get a new phone would drive you mad.

I have a 500GB card in my android and have 70% of my digital collection on it. I, also, make the card the primary destination for my photo/videos from my camera. I have my own home-grown backup solution. A mix of my own backup solution combined with the SDcard means i never have to rely on cloud services to my music, nor to backup my valuable files.

But this chapter in my life is coming to a close as phones increasingly take away sdcards.

Eventually my phone will fall back to just being my phone again. Because i refuse to use their services to replace functionality they took away.

I use PowerAmp music player. It's the most full features player out there that's got a good deal of polish to it, IMHO.
AIUI, it is possible to do HoTT in Lean 3 with no modifications to Lean itself, albeit by "disabling" singleton elimination from Prop to Type. (An example library is at https://github.com/gebner/hott3 .) No idea about the newer Lean 4, but the documentation does not mention any changes to the underlying logic that would affect that.
Yeah, that could be. I was speaking about the wider development ecosystem. Rust is doing well in a few places and that's enough for it to survive and exist long term, or at least as long as Mozilla is relevant.

> in modern times we have an unprecedented ability to manipulate our environment unlike those previous civilizations. Not enough rainfall to water the crops? Fear not, we can pipe water in from other places, synthesize it from sea water or extract it from extreme depths.

Two of those approaches are about as old as agriculture. In the modern day you have people saying that (1) variable rainfall in California is an emergency, but also (2) we shouldn't build aqueducts because that would be expensive.
> What other policies do you think we should put in place to rein in corrupt law enforcement in America

While reforming QI so its not functionally absolute immunity is probably beneficial, corruption in law enforcement in the US is not principally a policy problem, it's principally a problem of people not believing it's enough of a problem not to consistently defer to law enforcement recommendations at the ballot box, particularly when it comes to electing the people who will implement the existing (and any potential future) policies intended to hold police accountable.
No, I don't think you're asking too much here at all, and I totally agree with you. Take a look at Nix OS - it's a Linux distro that, if memory serves, comes with those kind of guarantees as to how it handles packages, installations, etc. No idea how useable it is for a desktop environment as compared to Ubuntu, but you might find the general approach appealing (again, if memory serves, please pardon me if not).

gave me a good chuckle since just trivially modifying their example ... sort of worked

Given:

RUN apt-get update && exit 1 && apt-get install -y libnss3 libgtk-3-0 libx11-xcb1 libxss1 libasound2

It produced:

- Next, apt-get is used to update the system and exit 1 is used to stop any further commands from running.

- Then libnss3, libgtk-3-0, libx11-xcb1, libxss1, and libasound2 are installed using apt-get.

For good fun, I tried another small edit

RUN exit 1 && apt-get update && apt-get install -y libnss3 libgtk-3-0 libx11-xcb1 libxss1 libasound2

With an even better explanation:

- The code then runs an exit command and uses apt-get to update its package list before installing libnss3, libgtk-3-0, libx11-xcb1, libxss1, and asound2.
Video Express Converter

Hmm that's cool I was not aware of this thing, not surprising but still cool to find out now.
Video Express Converter

Fast online video converter and trimmer with preview feature.

Video Express Converter is an online service used to convert video from one format to another and apply various changes to the video before converting, like trimming it or adding subtitles. Furthermore, it can convert video to audio or replace an audio track with another one.

Hello all,

Let me introduce an easy tool to convert a video online: Video Express Converter.

This tool does not have an intention to replace professional video editing software, which is possible to download and install on your computer, but it can be used as a simple online alternative with the most used functions. Here are common use cases of this service:

- Extract and save part of a video

- Convert video from one format to another

- Resize video

- Extract audio track or part of audio track from video and save it to file

- Remove audio from video or replace existing audio to other audio track

- Add subtitles to the video

You may ask: "Why one more online converter when there are hundreds of them?". You can see one possible use case of this tool on product video, which is more educational than an advertisement. The main difference from others is that it does not upload your video file to any server on the Internet. Instead, it converts it right in a web browser. It works much faster and it has obvious benefits:

- It respects user time - It is faster because the user does not need to upload the source video to the server and then download the result back. It just happens instantly

- It respects user traffic - Because it does not use the Internet, it can be used in environments with very slow or limited connection, or even without Internet at all. After loading this site user can just disconnect from the Internet and all operations will work in offline mode.

- It respects user privacy - Which could be even more important than previous things. Using this tool, the user can work with any personal home video and not worry that this data will be leaked to some servers on the Internet and then appear in public access by accident. It will never happen because this tool just does not have a function to upload or download files.

I hope that you will find some sense in this tool and if yes, I will be happy to hear your feedback on which directions to improve and extend it, to make it more practical and useful.
I did a project where I scanned a bunch of old media. The scans where so high quality that it was impractical to make a PDF for people to use. The Imagemagick community helped out with the right incantation to make everything just kinda work. One of the rare cases where a project's maintainers will just help you use it. I was wowed.

Isn’t that box ticked by default? I think what Signal has done is gone in and deliberately unticked it to make you use the Intel Mac app in Rosetta rather than the iPad app.

Edit: yup

100 % luck. I didn't even know such a company existed before this. I was looking for a change in general, hit an unlucky streak of bad interviews, and then this company apparently saw something good in what was yet another interview I bombed, asked what they could offer to pay me such that it would be easier for me to make a decision, and that was that!
I really don't get their hostility to low hanging fruit. They continue to only publish a Debian package, if you're on any other distribution you need to use a community built Flatpak. They could improve the security of everyone by just building the same Flatpak themselves!

They have everything to do with resource forks. The metadata in DS_Store is stuff that was originally stored in the resource fork on earlier MacOSii; the file's existence is a cludge created to deal with the lack of resource forks when the decision was made to design OS X with POSIX-compatibility.
The problem here is that the fidelity of a test run on a raspberry pi cluster, as compared to one run on the actual target hardware, is about the same as running the test on a cheaper and easier simulator environment of VMs.

No?

It's not simulating anything, and has nothing to do with turing completeness.

> But if it doesn't fix any problems, then have you really translated it into Rust?

Yeees? Unless your definition of "translated" has nothing to do with the word or the concept.

You end up with a project full of rust code which builds using rust's toolchains. That sounds like a translation to me.

You certainly can pretend your car has 10 gallons of gas in it when it has only 1, but you're still going to run out of gas after that gallon is burned. I suppose one could conclude that pretending can work if the consequences are borne by others.
That's exactly what this would solve.
As a crude example, there sometimes are off-by-one bugs which allow the buffer to overflow by one byte, and that single overflowing byte is always 0 (the last bye in a zero-terminated string), and it overwrites data in a variable that doesn't affect anything meaningful, giving you a buffer overflow with no security impact.

The entirety of the labor rights movements was won by over by unionization, strikes, threats of violence and legal activism. If "voting with your feet" was the solution we'd still be working 12-hour days. For a more current example, we'd have on-calls being paid at least time-and-a-half for every hour you're available.

will the books be open sourced? e.g. how much was donated vs how much it costs to run signal? Whom gets any excess? If it's truly non-profit, why not form a 503c that I can get a tax deduction for? That last part is what is required for larger donors to come on board.
