Sounds perfectly reasonable to me. If OP is unable or unwilling to fix a problem that is important to her, why isn’t she allowed to pay someone to fix it?
You wouldn’t say its toxic if she threatens to call a plumber after OP promised multiple times to fix the leaking toilet.
I don’t think sov civs actually have a problem with rules or authority. I think they are deeply insecure in the fact that they don’t understand the rules so they make up new ones that they believe to be absolute and above all else.
They believe like dogma in this shit like the maritime flag with stripes and a court with that flag gets magically invalidated so they don’t have to follow any rulings. They get a feeling of control when they understand the rules even when the rules are imaginary.
Terminology: revoked means the issuer of the certificate has decided that the certificate should not be trusted anymore even though it is still valid.
If a attacker gets access to a certificates key, they can impersonate the server until the validity period of the cert runs out or it is revoked by the CA. However … revocation doesn’t work. The revocation lists arent checked by most clients so a stolen cert will be accepted potentially for a very long time.
The second argument for shorter certs is adoption of new technology so certs with bad cryptographic algorithms are circled out quicker.
And third argument is: if the validity is so short you don’t want to change the certs manually and automate the process, you can never forget and let your certs expire.
We will probably get to a point of single day certs or even one cert per connection eventually and every step will be saver than before (until we get to single use certs which will probably fuck over privacy)
One reason for the short certs is to push faster adoption of new technology. Yes that’s about new cryptography in the certs but if you still change all your certs by hand maybe you need to be forced …
You don’t need something ever. Sometimes you just want something because the alternative is realy bad. I don’t need to eat. I want to eat because I don’t want to starve.
I want to watch a movie with my partner at the agrees time because otherwise they will be mad. I want to access my digitalized documents to send a letter in time because otherwise I will have to pay late fees. I want to access my gameserver because that’s the one time a week I get to have fun with my friends from my college time.
There are many situations where I’d rather do the thing I want instead of doing maintenance.
There is still a good reason to know about problems early. Without any monitoring you will find out about problems exactly in that moment when you what to use the service that doesn’t work. Sometimes you need something quick and you don’t have time to debug and fix in that moment. If you get an alert early you can decide to fix it right away or in a few hours or tomorrow.
You can read right?
Führer = Hitler
Something-Führer / Führer-Something = not Hitler
The word Führer is 99% used for Hitler. There are many variants that are OK to use though. Most notably Anführer (if Führer is leader, Anführer would be “the one who leads ahead”) which is the common word to use for leader. Others are composites like Bergführer (mountain guide).
The swastica also existed before the nazis but is now forever tainted.
Who is “someone”. This could be ment either way
Lol rogue one is the best star wars movie of this century. Not saying its a good movie, just the best star wars movie
If it shows up in gparted correctly it sounds like you did it correctly but just to make sure, don’t dd the iso to the mounted partition, you don’t want to have a filesystem with a .iso file on it. dd directly to the device (like /Dev/sda1 or whatever). BTW you don’t need dd just use cp.
You don’t get hacking protection from bots
I disagree. I don’t know the details of cloudflares bot detecion, but there are many automated vulnerability scanners that this could protect against.
I said that instead of crashing the system they should have something that takes an intentional decision and informs properly about what’s happening.
I agree. Every crash is a failure by the designers. Instead it should be caught by the program and result in a useful error state. They probably have something like that but it didn’t work because the crash was to severe.
What’s the point of your complaint if you do agree?
I am not complaining. I am informing you that you are missing an angle in your consideration. You can never prevent every crash ever. So when designing your product you have to consider what should happen if every safeguard fails and you get an uncontrolled crash. In that case you have to design for “fail open” or “fail closed”. Cloudflare fucked up. The crash should not have happened and if it did it should have been caught. They didn’t. They fucked up. But, i agree with the result of the fuck up causing a fail closed state.
it shouldn’t crash the whole thing: if the bot detection module crahses, control it, fire an alert but accept the request until fixed.
Fail open vs fail closed. Bot detection is a security feature. If the security feature fails, do you disable it and allow unchecked access to the client data? Or do you value Integrity over Availability
Imagine the opposite: they disable the feature and during that timeframe some customers get hacked. The hacks could have been prevented by the Bot detection (that the customer is paying for).
Yes, bot detection is not the most critical security feature and probably not the reason someone gets hacked but having “fail closed” as the default for all security features is absolutely a valid policy. Changing this policy should not be the lesson from this disasters.
Yes but no. If you use a different service for the same purpose as you would use cloudflare you will be just as offline if they make a mistake. The difference is just that with a centralized player, everyone is offline at the same time. For the individual websites that does not matter.
LLMs are an incredible interface to other systems. Why learn a new system language to get information’s when you can use natural language to ask and the AI will translate into the system language and do the lookup for you and then translate the result into natural language again. The important part is, the AI never gives an answer to your question itself, it just translates between human language and system language.
Use it as a language machine and never as a knowledge machine!
Not like the whole video goes from 1080p to 720p or something but single bits of the drive will fails over time. If that bit is part of your video file, one pixel of one frame will be the wrong color/black. If multiple bits close to each other fail you might get a video stutter. If even more fail your video player will not play the video at all (or just stop playing at the place of the errors).
That is the smallest scale of self hosting. The server and the client are the same device. It is also the most insecure way as you probably don’t have any backups and very limited storage space.
Actually self hosting is the next step when you decide you want 5+ TB of data and have it automatically create backups. Digital storage media degrade pretty quickly and if you just have your movies on a hard drive in your computer, after 5-10 years you might start to lose quality or some files completely.
sifting through data, finding patterns and acting based on patterns. Its potential applications in medical diagnostics or surveillance …
Those are the "expert systems’ they were talking about. ML systems and not genAI. They are not the AI people mean when they use the word AI.
Sadly they dont. At least not nearly to the extend that they should be.
Same problem with pedometer. Realy sucks when you do a long hike only to see the app only tracked the car ride and the crashed …
