It provides a safety net by pooling the resources of the community to support the less fortunate. This prevents people from having to sacrifice their long term goals because their short term needs may not be otherwise met.

Also in contrast to capitalism that treats society as a zero sum game (“I can’t get ahead unless I take something from someone else”) socialism is a benefit multiplier (“I’m part of the community. By making the life of everyone in the community better I’m also improving my own life”).

They are really good at providing examples for why civilized society needs socialism.

Or companies do hire security, but the security team is incompetent and unable/unwilling to adapt to new challenges. Then it devolves into security theater, until either someone new comes who cleans house or a breach happens.

Arch: I need reproducible setups. Also bleeding edge is not for me.

I have to give credit to their documentation though!

Mine has a precondition option that can both heat the cabin and warm up the battery while still plugged in (a warm battery will give you better range). The heaters keep up, and in fact can warm the cabin faster than on ICE: The latter uses waste heat from the engine, the EV just uses a heating element like a space heater for home would.

WASD = Path of Vampire Survivors?

It was Arkanoid for me.

Alley Cat, Dukem Nukem 3D, Ultima (4, 5, and 7), Daytona, Day of the Tentacle, Zack McCracken…

I don’t recall Reddit having unique content - what I do remember however was that it had aggregated content. It filled the role of Slashdot, Fark, and other sites, and it had a comment threading system that was far more usable. The memes came after.

“Don’t you think he looks tired?”

But Jaskier isn’t gay in the show, either. He’s bisexual.

Oh yeah, that completely changes things, and does completely fit in with the character.

I do have to admit that I did not watch the latest season, not because of Jaskier but because of what they did to Eskel in the previous season. So I took the other commenter’s word that the character was made gay. I guess that’s what I get for assuming honesty until proven differently on the Internet.

I believe they’re referring to the character of Jaskier/Dandelion, who in the lore is a womanizing, promiscuous bard. Pretty much the DnD bard player character archetype. It is also pivotal to a number of plot points, because the character’s womanizing habits frequently land him in trouble, making him a “damsel in distress” supporting character. Which in itself works better when the character is straight because it subverts the trope.

The thing is also that there’s plenty of characters in the story who are or could be made gay without serious repercussions to the plot.

You are correct. A little bit hurt maybe to be grouped with the bigots, but as I said I understand the sentiment, and I also understand that in certain demographics it’s close enough to the truth.

As an ally I would prefer if the second panel said “homophobes” instead of “straight people”, but I get the sentiment of the meme. It’s like a Bechdel for the audience.

The CIS benchmarks for Linux are a good start. There are some off the shelf tools that let you run those, notably linux-bench. Another tool in a similar fashion is lynis. You can also use eBPF tools like callander to examine your workload behaviour and help tighten your seccomp policies.

Once you’ve established a baseline for your system, you’ll next want to harden your environment. This means network scans, OWASP, etc. As far as off the shelf tools go, OpenVAS is quite popular even in Enterprise environments.

Finally there’s the continuous security tasks. Continuous package updates, runtime security, log analysis, etc. There are some free tools that cover part of this like Security Onion, but if the price is right a SaaS tool can save you a lot of time.

It relates to “real” (physical, tangible, immovable or inseparable) property pertaining to land. In other words land plus buildings and resources attached to it. It contrasts with personal property and intellectual property.

data centers

recharge while the computer is off

I don’t know of many data centers that don’t run their servers 24/7

There’s also the fact that credit rating agencies in North America have hardly any supervision and are prone to make mistakes because they take correlated data by face value.

Stör is German for sturgeon. And it happens to sound like a lot of other words. Stör Wars, stört your engines, etc. The admins let it run for a while and then put a ban on Stör memes, so everything quieted down. Until this week, when c/risa got the Morn/Gorn/Rom bug.
