There’s no way a US president is going to stop supporting Israel. She would do the same thing, even if she were not the vice-president.

I’m not sure, but I think that might have been part of the joke, seeing all the comments here.

It’s a shame the web got so complex that it has become unfeasible to make a browser engine anywhere near full compliance for anyone that isn’t a large company.

I don’t get the banana trick. What do I do after pinching? I just end up ripping through the skin of one while trying it out.

Thanks for the warning.

I do hear them if they are large enough, in high enough numbers and if I have my ear close enough, but it isn’t a hum that I hear. I hear what I imagine are them walking or the stuff they carry.

Is there any situation where you’d want to remember the opcodes? Disassemblers should give you user-friendly assembly code, without any need to look at the raw numbers. Maybe it’s useful to remember which instructions are pseudo instructions (so you know stuff like jz (jump if zero) being the same as je (jump if equal) making it easier to understand the disassembly), but I don’t think you need to remember the opcode numbers for that.

Oh, that makes sense. I interpreted “sad” as the paper making the person who didn’t read it sad, the same way sad music is about making the listener sad than the actual music itself.

I once lived with a sort of science skepticistdenier (didn’t believe in the moonlanding nor did he believe that the earth wasn’t flat). He was of the belief that scientists are deceiving the public and one of the examples he gave was that they claim that the earth rotates at 1 670 km/h but if we look outside that’s very clearly not the case and if jump we aren’t flung at that speed to the side. I spent half an hour in a back and forth trying to explain the concept of relative velocity and inertia. It didn’t go anywhere.

Edit: changed to denier based on the comment by logos.

I was taught ℕ did not contain 0 and that ℕ₀ is ℕ with 0.

That was unexpectedly quick. I thought we’d be waiting years before we could even begin talking about any kind of measures that could be taken in response to the crimes (assuming that it wouldn’t be dismissed on the way).

Wait until you learn about negative downvotes.

and anti-upvotes

I wonder what sort of mitigations we can take to prevent such kind of attacks, wherein someone contributes to an open-source project to gain trust and to ultimately work towards making users of that software vulnerable. Besides analyzing with bigger scrutiny other people’s contributions (as the article mentioned), I don’t see what else one could do. There are many ways vulnerabilities can be introduced and a lot of them are hard to spot (especially in C with stuff like undefined behavior and lack of modern safety features) , so I don’t think “being more careful” is going to be enough.

I imagine such attacks will become more common now, and that these kind of attacks could become very appealing for governments.

if you look hard enough

I think I have seen as many VGA cables as I did HDMI ones. I also have seen many people using adapters for the two standards. So I think they are still very common.

Can you explain it? I don’t get it.

Are you in the All tab? You can also sort by most comments (that doesn’t take recent activity into account, but for that there are other sorts). If you are only finding dead communities, it probably means you have reached the end of lemmy and that there is nothing more to see.

Couldn’t scaled sort or new sort in the all tab already do that? There’s also the community browser. You can sort communities by different criteria there.

Reminds me of the Wilddruden from the Ronja Räubertochter (Ronia, the Robber’s Daughter) movie.

That’s not Newton’s contribution. Aristotle already said that an object only moves if a force acts upon it.

That’s not true though. You can get the backtrace and other useful information from the coredump mentioned by the error message by loading it with gdb. Not as good as attaching it to a living process, since you can’t see step-by-step what happens leading up to the error, but still quite useful.
