| DaemonFC | Well I can't say I like how cramped the engine bay is, but that's something all BMWs suffer from. Looks like there's at least less plastic in a 1995. | Apr 27 04:01 |
| DaemonFC | The interior leather seats and console look like something out of 90s Star Trek. | Apr 27 04:02 |
| MinceR | too bad it's 27 years old so it's a miracle there's something left of it that you can show to people who are not using a microscope | Apr 27 04:02 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, My Buick is holding up well for being 14 years old. | Apr 27 04:04 |
| DaemonFC | Although I did have to replace a lot of wear items and flush out all the fluids. | Apr 27 04:04 |
| DaemonFC | It runs really well now though. | Apr 27 04:05 |
| DaemonFC | It got a brake job yesterday. Pads, rotors....had the fluid flushed out at Chevy when I was up there anyway for something else. | Apr 27 04:06 |
| DaemonFC | Two new front wheel hub bearings. | Apr 27 04:06 |
| DaemonFC | One had seized up. | Apr 27 04:06 |
| DaemonFC | The car was just kind of pushing it along. | Apr 27 04:06 |
| DaemonFC | The powertrain seems to be in fine shape though. | Apr 27 04:07 |
| DaemonFC | If I ever do lose the radiator, it's not going to be an OE radiator that replaces it. It'll be one of those ones from China. It's kind of hard to screw up a radiator, so there's really no reason to buy an OE one. | Apr 27 04:07 |
| *u-amarsh04 has quit (Quit: Konversation terminated!) | Apr 27 04:08 | |
| DaemonFC | But the flush job seemed to clear out all of the gunk. | Apr 27 04:08 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, That's sort of the secret to car ownership. | Apr 27 04:08 |
| DaemonFC | You learn where you need OE parts and where you really don't. | Apr 27 04:08 |
| DaemonFC | Anything that really takes a lot of abuse, you have to be careful what you buy. AutoZone will sell you a belt tensioner for the Buick for $50, but it won't be a quality part. | Apr 27 04:09 |
| DaemonFC | I made the mistake on my Taurus of using an AutoZone belt tensioner and it was broken again within 2 years. | Apr 27 04:09 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, I heard a good one the other day. | Apr 27 04:11 |
| DaemonFC | Landlords are almost all Republicans, and they complain about people on welfare sitting around waiting for money to appear. | Apr 27 04:11 |
| DaemonFC | Irony. | Apr 27 04:11 |
| DaemonFC | My landlord doesn't drive a luxury car though, at least. | Apr 27 04:12 |
| DaemonFC | He drives an early 2000s Ford Explorer. | Apr 27 04:12 |
| DaemonFC | It's nice to know that he's not jacking up our rent and then driving a $90,000 car with it, you know. | Apr 27 04:13 |
| DaemonFC | MinceR, Pads and rotors on both axles and two wheel hub bearings on the Buick was cheaper than just a wheel hub bearing for MARISOL's BMW. | Apr 27 04:21 |
| DaemonFC | Nice, huh? | Apr 27 04:21 |
| DaemonFC | THey have gourmet coffee at BMW! | Apr 27 04:21 |

| DaemonFC | Scotty Kilmer got a reader question about running over a porcupine and ending up with quills in his tire and asking if he should leave it alone or take them out, and Kilmer says leave them in until you can get to the shop and just replace the tire. "I don't know if insurance covers porcupine damage.". | Apr 27 04:31 |
| DaemonFC | They actually will if you have comprehensive, but it's probably not worth filing a claim. | Apr 27 04:32 |
| inbloom | american cars breakdown alot | Apr 27 04:32 |
| DaemonFC | I mean, maybe if the tires are really expensive tires or something. Like you're a MARISOL and just got conned into paying $1,600 for four tires, and your insurance deductible is $500, you may get a $900 check if you ran over some porcupines and they poppes all of your tires. | Apr 27 04:33 |

| matey | reproducible builds can be automated and proven, consensus can be reached on whether its verified | Apr 27 06:25 |
| matey | who wrote what (in terms of credits being available) is mostly a solved problem | Apr 27 06:25 |
| matey | who not to trust will never be a solved problem | Apr 27 06:25 |
| matey | however, lets say it WAS solved | Apr 27 06:26 |
| matey | even if you trusted everyone who wrote the code, thats misses the point doesnt it? | Apr 27 06:26 |
| matey | because to know whose code was in the binary... | Apr 27 06:26 |
| matey | youd need some way to verify the build... | Apr 27 06:26 |
| matey | and now (hopefully) you understand why this is solving what CAN be solved and (not only that) what has to be solved | Apr 27 06:26 |
| matey | for the "who to trust" thing to even make it into the binary | Apr 27 06:27 |

| matey | of course calling something a "verifiable build" when it contains blobs is funny | Apr 27 06:31 |
| matey | you could take a completely unverified build, put that blob in a verifiable build process and call the output "verifiable" | Apr 27 06:31 |
| psydruid | a verifiably unverifiable build | Apr 27 06:32 |

| matey | /me thinks a reproducible build with unreproducible blobs should be called a farcical build, but this isnt a knock on the process itself | Apr 27 06:33 |
| matey | if its applied to a blobless source then its not as silly | Apr 27 06:34 |
| matey | however, i suspect the whole thing will be used to sell things like flatcrap | Apr 27 06:34 |
| *goosestepping_ has quit (Quit: GOODBYE!!!) | Apr 27 06:35 | |

| matey | and since they wont verify every system, im sure... | Apr 27 06:36 |
| matey | it will be used to push certain build systems over others as "secure build" vs not | Apr 27 06:37 |
| psydruid | I remember getting some GNOME application to build was so hard that they recommended just installing the flatcrap | Apr 27 06:37 |
| matey | none of which means its a bad idea | Apr 27 06:37 |

| matey | though from a scholarly standpoint, i would say that 8 bits is pretty modest limitation for handling both code and international text | Apr 27 07:55 |
| matey | i mean, we used to be able to transmit text with ONLY FIVE bits | Apr 27 07:55 |
| matey | just who should we blame for ascii bloating it up to 7? | Apr 27 07:56 |

| matey | its not that i love unicode, i find it a little bit hateful | Apr 27 07:57 |
| activelow | ASCII contains more codes, to control teletype terminals for example... which aren't fully implemented anymore nowadays (VT340 sixels) | Apr 27 07:57 |

| matey | gtk2 uses pango | Apr 27 08:10 |
| activelow | of cause, the Hebrew/Farsi/Arab/Hindi support is gone; nonetheless it is still possible to have it, GNOMEification with Mapple TrueType, Harfbuzz etc. | Apr 27 08:11 |
| activelow | gtk2 is slighly confusing, because it seems not consistent among minor version bumps; gtk2.6 used an older pango version 1.8... moment | Apr 27 08:12 |
| matey | i think we can rule out unicode as a jewish conspiracy | Apr 27 08:13 |
| matey | Code page 862 ( CCSID 862) (also known as CP 862, IBM 00862, OEM 862 (Hebrew), MS-DOS Hebrew) is a code page used under DOS in Israel for Hebrew. Like ISO 8859-8, it encodes only letters, not vowel-points or cantillation marks. | Apr 27 08:13 |
| matey | im not even slightly surprised that hebrew was (mostly) supported before 1990 | Apr 27 08:13 |
| activelow | matey: seems with pango-1.8 freetype/fontconfig are optional; meaning gtk-2.6/GTKFB and pango-1.8 do not need it... just in case i really want GTK2.6/GTKFB | Apr 27 08:14 |

| matey | and that makes it a bitch | Apr 27 08:41 |
| matey | let me put it this way | Apr 27 08:41 |
| matey | ive written programs designed to work on a LOT of different data | Apr 27 08:41 |
| matey | and when i switched from python 2 to python 3 | Apr 27 08:42 |
| matey | i spent hours and hours making it work with the unicode-centricity of python 3 | Apr 27 08:42 |
| matey | then i spent six months testing the python 3 version | Apr 27 08:42 |
| matey | it worked pretty reliably for that long | Apr 27 08:42 |
| matey | then one day, i spent about 30 minutes trying to figure out why something just wasnt working | Apr 27 08:42 |
| matey | and i recompiled the program into python 2 instead of 3 and it worked | Apr 27 08:43 |
| matey | and i said fuck python 3 forever | Apr 27 08:43 |
| matey | its wonky as fuck | Apr 27 08:43 |
| matey | and unicode is the reason | Apr 27 08:43 |
| matey | python 2 is also wonky, but its more graceful about this | Apr 27 08:43 |
| matey | you cant win with unicode | Apr 27 08:43 |

| bnchs | "Scenario: we have a php 7 web application using IIS10 via FastCGI. We did performance testing on our application and noticed a slowdown. We ruled out the database tier. We looked at the IIS server and, even under heavy load, when the app slows down dramatically, the resources are not strained... no CPU spikes no RAM spikes. Digging further we came to the conclusion that all the requests coming in are simply being queued. When some of requests take | Apr 27 19:11 |
| bnchs | longer (for some very large reports that take 1-3 minutes) then every other request is being queued up waiting for the first ones to go through." | Apr 27 19:11 |

| schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: according to people WHO EDIT Wikipedia | Apr 27 21:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | could be anuyone | Apr 27 21:23 |
| schestowitz-TR | many people and orgs write their own pages | Apr 27 21:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | about themselves | Apr 27 21:24 |
| schestowitz-TR | DaemonFC: can you proofread with me? | Apr 27 21:24 |
| DaemonFC | Fixed a typo. | Apr 27 21:24 |
| DaemonFC | "The fact that AAA lobbies against motorist rights and for unconstitutional and corrupt traffic camera schemes and ridiculously low speed limits that nobody pays attention to is like finding out your donations to Planned Parenthood are actually funding Female Genital Mutilation (and as far as I know, THAT isn’t happening, but AAA is the car owner’s version of that)." | Apr 27 21:26 |
| DaemonFC | schestowitz-TR, MetroMile fucked me real good on Roadside once. | Apr 27 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | So I was in Fort Wayne, Indiana which is 200 MILES from Chicago. | Apr 27 21:27 |
| DaemonFC | And then my Crown Victoria blows a brake line. I called MetroMile for a tow. I bought the Roadside because mom kept letting our AAA lapse and I didn't want to call and find out it wasn't working. | Apr 27 21:28 |
| DaemonFC | So, I get in my MetroMile app and ask for a tow. Nothing happens. I call them, they say "Well, we sent a tow truck to your location on Wacker Drive. | Apr 27 21:29 |
| DaemonFC | I say "I'm not on Wacker Drive. I'm on State Street in Fort Wayne, Indiana. How can you have something on my phone with GPS access _and_ plugged into my car with GPS access and think I'm in Chicago?". | Apr 27 21:30 |
| DaemonFC | mjg59_'s San Francisco tech bubble economy. | Apr 27 21:30 |
| DaemonFC | But it qualifies as having liability coverage and my bills were averaging $20 a month because they're a questionable insurance outfit running on VC losses like everything in mjg59_-land. | Apr 27 21:31 |
| DaemonFC | :) | Apr 27 21:31 |
| DaemonFC | And if I hit anyone and they sued MetroMile, not really my problem. So their lawyer and MetroMile would get into a shit throwing contest. | Apr 27 21:32 |
| DaemonFC | But now that I have a nice car, I'm using an established insurance company. | Apr 27 21:32 |
| DaemonFC | When you get "full coverage", MetroMile really isn't good on price anymore. | Apr 27 21:32 |
| DaemonFC | And you may end up filing a claim for yourself.... So you may as well take your business to a reputable firm. | Apr 27 21:32 |
| DaemonFC | Instead of going "$20 a month and if I hit anything, not my circus not my monkeys.". | Apr 27 21:33 |
| DaemonFC | I mean, other than being in CLUE, but that'll happen regardless of who you caused the loss to. | Apr 27 21:33 |

| DaemonFC | Local Privilege Escalations are bugs, yes, but they are of low concern (and do get fixed). Anyone with direct physical access to a computer can elevate their privileges eventually. And on Windows there's a ton of them which sometimes even bypass the TPM and Bitlocker. There was one in the print spooler, for example, last summer. But it happens all the time on Windows and you don't even see it much in "the news". | Apr 27 21:41 |
| DaemonFC | Any user on the machine could become SYSTEM and read your files, even if they were "protected". So that's Windows for you. | Apr 27 21:41 |
| bnchs | in GNU/Linux, you would have to boot to another OS to get root | Apr 27 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | Becoming SYSTEM is an even bigger disaster than becoming ADMINISTRATOR, because in Windows, this means that you're...well, part of the system. You can even patch and hook into things that are "secured" and off limits to ADMINISTRATOR. | Apr 27 21:42 |
| DaemonFC | Stuff that normally requires digital signing no longer requires digital signing. | Apr 27 21:43 |
| DaemonFC | So at this point, rootkit? Sure. | Apr 27 21:43 |
| DaemonFC | And all it takes is someone running as a Guest or as a user with no administrator hat to run a file that knows where the vulnerabilities are. | Apr 27 21:43 |
| DaemonFC | Microsoft was in the news (their news) recently for raising the bug bounty. It's still less than Google's, and way less than what those things are worth to nation state attackers, terrorists, and ransomware outfits. | Apr 27 21:45 |

| DaemonFC | By a factor of $10,000:$1 sometimes. | Apr 27 21:45 |
| MinceR | it's still wasted money from their perspective | Apr 27 21:45 |
| MinceR | that could be better spent on corruption, ads and lawyers | Apr 27 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | Even if you get $40,000 out of Microsoft's bug bounty system somehow, the ransomware gangs can just explout it and make $20 million or more on one hit. | Apr 27 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | So they'll pay better each time and it's simply up to the conscience of whoever found the problem in Windows as to what they want to do with it at that point. | Apr 27 21:46 |
| DaemonFC | So the bug bounties are a ruse, a smoke screen, and the illusion of responsibility. In Linux, people find and fix bugs all the time. The code isn't hidden. That leads, usually, to inevitable discovery, and quick patching. | Apr 27 21:47 |
| DaemonFC | People want to find bugs in Linux and report and fix hundreds of the same type, so they develop tools that can do things like that. Microsoft is annoyed that you reported one. | Apr 27 21:48 |
| DaemonFC | Even over a decade ago before profiling tools were not as robust, not by a long shot, Coverity Scan admitted that "open source software, in general" was less than half as buggy as a comparable proprietary program. | Apr 27 21:49 |
| DaemonFC | The proprietary software is sort of like the worst case situation for your security because they have little incentive to fix it unless there's already malware out there and they just can't hide the bugs any longer. | Apr 27 21:50 |
| schestowitz | added | Apr 27 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | It's like General Motors putting defective ignition switches in millions of cars for a decade after they knew they were shutting off the car unexpectedly and killing people in accidents. | Apr 27 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | GM figured it'll cost $1 a car to fix this problem, then come all of the recalls, and we'll just grind them down with stall tactics and lawyers and stuff if they ever find out, and the settlement will still cost less. | Apr 27 21:51 |
| DaemonFC | So that's what we do. | Apr 27 21:52 |

| DaemonFC | It's crazy what corporations get away with, but money talks. | Apr 27 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | People complain that, like, car repair bills are very expensive. | Apr 27 21:58 |
| DaemonFC | They're expensive because of a lot of factors. That mechanic is a skilled laborer. Car prices are horrible, so the skill is in demand, and the demand exceeds the supply. There's overhead to running the shop. The shop has to fix problems with their work, for free, if one arises while it's covered under the parts and labor warranty. If you get out on the road and their job was substandard, they can be sued, so they have to carry liability | Apr 27 22:00 |
| DaemonFC | insurance that covers their legal defense and damages and the more it happens the more the insurance costs. | Apr 27 22:00 |
| DaemonFC | Yes, you can go get a part for $164 at AutoZone. It won't be a good part, but you can get that part. For $250 you get the part that's OEM, and it meets standards and will last a lot longer. But where they "get you" is labor hours, because they're skilled, they have overhead, and they are liable for what the repair does later on after they sell you the service. | Apr 27 22:01 |
| activelow | DaemonFC: local privilege escalations are very dangerous in conjunction with a remote-execution vulnerability of various types | Apr 27 22:01 |
| DaemonFC | So the job might suddenly cost $600-700, because that guy knows how to do something you don't, uses quality parts, and gets to eat the consequences if something bad happens and you get a lawyer. | Apr 27 22:01 |
| activelow | a security concept is, to isolate all processes with networking as non-root account... guess what happens with a local root priv escalation | Apr 27 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | You can repair your own car. You can also perform surgery on yourself in the bathroom mirror. | Apr 27 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | Most people shouldn't. | Apr 27 22:02 |
| DaemonFC | <activelow> a security concept is, to isolate all processes with networking as non-root account... guess what happens with a local root priv escalation | Apr 27 22:03 |
| DaemonFC | I do like the principles of a system like MINIX. One of the big flaws of Linux is everything in kernel space. | Apr 27 22:03 |
| activelow | the recent linux dirtypipe CVE is another one of Torvald's such as dirty CoW was | Apr 27 22:04 |
| DaemonFC | At the time, computers were very slow and so unless you wanted an unacceptable performance loss, you had to do it the way Linux ended up. | Apr 27 22:04 |
| techrights-news | Today we wish to take stock of a bunch of misleading, sensationalist coverage about “Linux”; as usual, Microsoft is connected to that, even more directly than one might expect… http://techrights.org/2022/04/27/secfud-aggression-and-deflection/ | Apr 27 22:04 |
| DaemonFC | But today, computers are very fast, but companies like Intel and AMD have a long list of processor flaws that make everything in kernel space a big security problem. | Apr 27 22:04 |
