US Credit Union Service Leaks Millions of Records and Passwords in Plain Text
  • They aren’t sure yet if someone else found it first. If a smart person found it first they could sell it piecemeal to make it harder to know where it came from. Each identity isn’t worth much but that’s a lot. Combine that with the password stuffing capability from a plain text password list and there’s…

    If you ever, ever store passwords in plain text instead of hashed and salted your business should be shut down. Thats below even Security 101 level, and shows a critical carelessness for user data.

    When we’re find things like this, unless we have exact audit logs proving there was no misuse, we assume it was misused because that’s the only sane way to do it.

    If it turns out they have excellent logging (hah) maybe they can prove it, let’s hope so for the affected people’s sake.

  • Face the consequences - Work Chronicles
  • I have seen a pattern of the boss or even second-tier management not even knowing it's about to happen. Like the now-famous Cloudflare botched "layoff-not-a-layoff" decisions are being made by folks who probably don't even know the people they are firing, they are just names on a spreadsheet.

    The good managers I've worked for think this way, they are there to make their team better and actually care about them as humans. For anyone thinking about going into management, every business I've ever seen needs more managers that care, it's a worthwhile job and even fewer people can do it correctly than many technical jobs. Managing poorly is trivial, so we all think it's "easy".

  • Can RISC-V SBCs use ARM software?
  • RISC is just a design philosophy, ARM and RISC-V are different command sets (opcodes) and software will have to be recompiled to run on it without emulation, which would be slow.

    Think of it like languages. Both Japanese and English can describe an apple, but the actual words are dramatically different.

    A good thing is that with the ARM revolution people have gotten used to building and debugging code that can build on both x64 and ARM, so being able to build and run on RISC-V is like learning a third (or fourth language if you include going from x86 to x86-64) and anyone who’s learned languages will tell you each one is easier to learn than the last. It will take less time for developers to have RISC-V build targets in theory.

  • I installed a new, bigger SSD and cloned the old one, LUKS partition is still old size
  • Did you expand the filesystem itself?

    You go from physical (your dd) to encrypted (luks) to lvm(if used) to your filesytem itself.

    You probably have btrfs so check out Resizing btrfs

    Edit: I can read, you have ext4 :)

    Check out resize2fs, IIRC it can do it live on a mounted partition

  • A Tribute to Bram Moolenaar, The Maestro Behind Vim Code Editor
  • Calling it a code editor is like calling my car a “work transport vehicle”

    Vim is an all purpose text-editing machine and although it has some definite quirks it solves problems. If you’ve used original vi you’ll know just how much more amazing vim is without changing the core concepts.

    Much love to Bram, you made the world a better place ❤️

  • Anti-Fascists Rule
  • The thing I take away from Batman is that if you think a problem though, you can prepare for what might happen and have a response ready, making you look like a super hero for those without the foresight. It’s a power anyone can have, so it’s very relatable and actually a valuable lesson.

    Also, in many of the stories he is a terribly broken and traumatized man, and those sorts of characters are usually more interesting. Batman has just been around for so long he was brooding and sullen before brooding and sullen were cool which gives him additional cred. As the “flipside” to the Boy Scout Superman (at least at times) but the two have the same goals is where I really enjoy the character, I think the Justice League show did a very good job there in playing the two against each other.

    One thing is, like others have said, he has had very different personalities depending on writing so you may really only like certain versions of him and that’s valid.

  • The Crisis Over American Manhood Is Really Code for Something Else
  • Manhood or masculinity is perfectly fine so long as it’s a personal decision and you don’t judge others to whatever you’ve decided is the “standard”

    If you want to wear plaid with an 18 inch beard and chop wood, awesome. Just don’t tell me thats the only standard for “a man”

  • Why do most gaming laptops have vents on the bottom?
  • Even my “corporate” Thinkpad with no dedicated GPU has all the fans on the bottom and exhausting to the sides and back.

    With the new hinges there’s space on the back for exhaust, some impeller fans drawing from the sides and exhausting out the back would be so much better. I custom printed some 1/2 inch high feet so it doesn’t throttle sitting on a table or lap desk because it’s just a terrible design even when used normally
