That's Game Over already.
AFAIK all the backdoors which have been found in some models are only accessible from the LAN side, and if you have an attacker inside the network, it's already too late.
6 years ago, discussion of an article about such: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24877363 (site hasn't survived, but article can still be found in archive.org: http://web.archive.org/web/20190511065920/http://redlightgre...)
...which will get even more congested as people continue to migrate to using a network designed for mobility for devices which don't even move.
Imagine thousands of devices, most of which never move, sharing one WiFi access point.
I don't think regulation is the answer, but maybe a "mobile networks are for mobility" awareness campaign might help fix this stupidity.
No, they don't have to be. How did this user-hostile attitude infect Linux too?
Also, a person viewing the QR code is not necessarily the owner of the panicked system.
So what? Stop hiding things from users. If they don't care they don't have to read. If they do, don't make them jump through additional hoops.
The move is part of a wider government scheme to get the UK onto all-digital high-speed networks running on fiber-optic infrastructure, and the legacy phone service – with its dependency on copper cabling – was standing in the way.
Not surprising that the government is involved; using new technology for new installations is acceptable, but cutting off existing paying customers with service that may have been working just fine for many decades is hostile.
I'm not in the UK, but my house has had a working landline since I bought it many decades ago, and I don't expect that to change anytime soon.
This script is to decode such kernel panics without needing to provide it to an external service.
WTF. A solution for an entirely self-inflicted problem.
??? The wax is petroleum, just the heavier parts.
Ironically it's made of petroleum, which is the decayed remains of prehistoric organisms.
Personally I would be careful about poking this bear so publicly. All it does is accelerate escalation and cause those of us who have been subjected to user-agent discrimination and found our own workarounds even more difficulty.
With the rise of AI, this point may be moot, but this is still a war and anything you make public can and will be used against you.
Of course, in the spirit of adversarial interoperability, this is a path to freedom. It's unfortunate that user-agent discrimination even became a thing.
I disagree; BT is several orders of magnitude more complex, since it includes many more layers than Wifi (which is really just a physical layer for carrying Ethernet).
Always interesting to see what happened in ten years --- 370MB/s is well below what the slowest NVMe SSD can do today, and easily achieved over a 5Gbps Ethernet connection.
Incidentally, H.264 patents have either expired or will be expiring soon: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Have_the_patents_for_H.264_M...
Instead, it applies only to organizations with machines that boot from local networks, or conceivably from Internet-connected resources.
Who is PXE-booting over the open Internet!?
The POSIX functions are split over ucrtbase, iphlpapi, and ws2_32, as on Windows, with anything that Windows doesn't implement put in mnposix.
LOL. POSIX in ucrtbase! Those are words that I never expected to see together.
I used AI to help with the mechanical parts of porting
I feel like it won't be long before someone comes up with a crazy chimera of an OS that can run DOS, Windows, Linux, BSD, and macOS binaries. It doesn't look like AI is replacing software developers, but rather boosting them quite significantly; there seems to be a lot of activity and new projects I've seen recently from many who aren't even using AI themselves, but must be somehow being inspired by others to do more.
