re: psa for lootcrate subscribers
@zoe Thanos trolling us in the real world too?!
In all seriousness, that was a very bad move. What was it made of, even?
@SuricrasiaOnline Would I trust a shark? Yes, I would, because I don't see how they could do any worse than other ISPs!
...Also the shark is a cutie, pass it on.
re: dns pol
What should we use instead? I get that the current DNS system sucks, but what's better?
@galacticstone People love to freak out over mysticism..now that's an idea...
They did say that they worked with PayPal on it..I get the feeling that that's a load of lies.
ARM being the future..not quite
A lot of the Linux community seems to have bought in to Linus saying that ARM is the future. Um..not quite.
A big stumbling block is that all software needs to be rebuilt for ARM. I doubt someone like Microsoft would do it without going EEE on it. It's part of the company's DNA, as far as I know.
That's not to say that ARM has no use whatsoever. For low power and cheap systems, like Nettops, and low power servers, it can work very well! (Raspberry Pis used for servers are proof of that.)
So, ARM still has a place, and a future. Will it take over X86? I don't think so. Will it replace it in certain areas? Certainly! I argue that's the point of ARM.
Not to mention that ARM was created by a transwoman..really! Look it up!
@ottona This is bad. Really bad.
@SuricrasiaOnline Aaah! Cute!
re: Zombieload
There's a flaw in any Intel processor since at least 2011 that allows data to be leaked from side-channel attacks.
I have an X200 laptop, which has a Core 2 Duo on it, which was made in 2008 or around about that time.
In short, it's another error, along the lines of the Spectre and Meltdown debacle a year ago.

@jd They claim not to seek war with Iran..but that's rubbish!
@InvaderXan It would be 99.9999...%, if I had to guess.
