  • This is correct. Ive helped a bunch of people (in Linux) complaining that chrome was eating all their ram when in fact it wasn't. Memory management is hard and it's easy to look at the wrong indicators.

    It does love its ram but not as much as people think.

  • Reddit started blocking VPN users on old.reddit.com
  • This is an oversimplification of the problem. Many times a search engine returns useful results inside reddit. You're not going there because you love reddit as a platform, but because you need something that someone posted in there.

  • Pick One
  • Bingo! The movie completely passed by me since the title was not enticing. Eventually a friend bugged me so much I ended up watching it (years later). It's a great movie.

  • Tech Company Leaks 2FA Codes/Password Reset Links for Major Platforms
  • It's a circus out there...

    One of my financial institutions supports yubikeys, but does not have the option to turn off sms 2fa. A chain is as strong as the weakest link, as usual.

    Another only has sms 2fa and bizarrely allows me to specify any phone number at login time to receive the code. WTF?

    Most only have 2fa via sms. When you talk about using an authenticator app people bitch and moan because they have to cut and paste those digits into the login page. Oh, the humanity...

    Don't even get me started on sites with "roll your own" schemes, like forcing you to install their app (which requires all permissions under the sun) just to accept a push message and allow you to login on their website.

  • Conveniently enter your phone number with a single input
  • What bugs me is: why in the fuck are they asking for people's gender? Other than medical questions (where you specify your birth gender), I think for the vast majority of cases the question should not be relevant.

  • Breaking Windows to let the penguin in...
  • I've worked extensively with both virtualbox and kvm/qemu. While I prefer kvm since it's open source, I could never reproduce the video performance of virtualbox. I'm not even trying to game, just use regular applications that I cannot run under Linux.

    I wonder if I'm missing something.

  • The real problem is that these people live in a world of fantasy and prep for the zombie apocalypse. It's this quasi sexual thing where they get a hard on for shooting everyone that moves, without guilt of any kind.

    The problem with their approach is that the zombie apocalypse won't happen and the people with guns are likely to be the ones starting the problem when things go slightly bad.

    BTW, I have lived through natural catastrophes where we got isolated and without power for many days. Curiously, neighbors got together and helped each other. No rapists or crazy marauders. Sadly, everybody went back to their natural state of isolation once the crisis was averted.

  • My favorite religious saying is "God helps those who help themselves". This is a bit like that old story of the pill that kills your thirst, but you have to take it with a cup full of water.

  • Absolutely they would. But mind you they only feel this power rush when the other side is unarmed. Put three of four black dudes with guns and these cowards will shit their pants.

    They love to LARP.

  • So anyway, I'm radicalized, rule
  • It is outrageous because if a sufficient number of people accept this bullshit, it becomes a viable and profitable business model and every provider moves into it. Basically people like me who run away from subscriptions like the devil end up without a choice.

  • Discord is laying off 17 percent of employees
  • Unity, Google, Discord. All within a day or two of each other.

    For every number of employees laid off, a VP level employee must be fired. Those employees didn't hire themselves. Someone came up with the idea.

    If companies don't do this they're not attacking the root of the problem.

  • Network Monitoring
  • For a simple way to do what you want, you can use vnstat. It can give you totals per interface, hour, day, week, month, etc.

    Of course it can only show figures captured after it was installed.
