Nobody is saying “Linux is obscure”
How about scrolling up to the exact comment I anwered to? Or -as you seem to be on the exceptional dense side- let me do it for you…
Linux’s “security through obscurity” was never going to last.
As already explained above I did not expect that statement to use the common “long-standing industry term” because -again- it would be utterly insane to claim security through obscurity for something open source.
Just google the term
Yes, please do.
The actual notion of “security through obscurity” (that will surely come up on Google if their AI bullshittery hasn’t screwed up completely…) for Linux is insane because open source is the polar opposite. By that definition proprietary code is actually much more linked to the concept.
The often more unprecise and colloquial usage I thus assumed you were using doesn’t apply either, for the reasons I summarised.
So which imaginary definition of “security through obscurity” are you using and assuming that it will come up on Google when none of the real ones makes any sense?
“Close ally” my ass… Those vile creatures have no allies, and in this particular case the hatred and lots of personal insults are well documented. For a lack of concepts for normal functioning human beings -because they are none- the only thing these corrupt idiots know and understand is what lie to scream loudly at every moment of their life to get the biggest amount of power and/or money.
You are right. I don’t know what your personal definition of “security through obscurity” is as it’s very obviously not matching actual reality.
There was never an actual notion of “security through obscurity”. LInux runs the complete Internet and most coporate server infrastructure. That’s where the actual money is.
People hallucinating that Linux is something obscure simply have no clue and confused their home desktop for real computing. Windows desktops are constantly targeted not because they are -unlike Linux- so wide-spread but because they are already insanely insecure. They are the low hanging fruit where you can cobble together some cheap shit and will still find million of PCs vulnerable. If you want to find a Linux comparison it’s definitely not server or desktops but cheap IoT devices not having seen an update (or any security to speak of) for many years.
For reference: We are talking about guests in a virtual pc escaping it’s container. That’s not something obcure. That’s basically all cloud hoster’s whole business model, thus the reason Google pays a lot of money for finding such exploits.
This whole “we can’t stop screaming about our pedophile president yet are too corrupt for actual consequences, too complacent for action and too stupid to not be distracted by yet another war the moronic orange started”-shitshow gets boring after a while. And for the people directly affected by your wars it’s even worse. How about you actually fix your corrupt authoritarian state or shut up and live with the failed state you are seemingly too lazy to do anything against?
If people think there is actually a connection between masculinity culture and climate denial, they are already wrong.
There is no connection, just a correlation. The actually connection is that both are two of the million artificially created fronts of the culture war to divert us.
Petitions are useless
Protests are useless
Governments and corporations conspire to implement surveilance knowing what comes next
<-- we are here
Actual resistence
That’s not even the worst part. They also hallucinate that the sudden leap to an actual artificial general intelligence is just a few more upgrades away…
And all of this happens in a starting phase where exactly none of the AI companies are generating profit and they are all still fighting for market shares via heavily discounts.
If costs are far too high to justify replacing workers right now, just imagine the costs once the established market increases costs to levels that actually generate profits for them; ones able to make back the insane investments.
He isn’t wrong
…it would be ridiculous for an obvious Russian asset trying to destroy NATO to keep NATO support up.
Why would bringing back non-avain dinosaurs kill the avian dinosaurs?
A platform platform…
Yes, the older ones of the rotating backups are still readable.
But that’s not even the actual problem nowadays: CDs and DVDs were nice when their size was still relevant in comparison to usual amounts of data. The real problem behind their decay is that we are lacking a widely available, properly scaled backup solution for more than a decade. So the mean reason people have now unreadable optical data is that they stopped thinking about it a long time ago for an utter lack of options.
Sambucus Nigra (Black lace elderberry)…
The newest stylish fashion trend in shrubbery. And like all cool things it’s black (as the name suggests - in reality more a deep purple).
Wait? Free street parking is not a general law of nature? Then why do all our alleged “bicycle streets” have 100% dooring zones on both sides?
the agent is a tool you used
My hammer is also a tool. But if I start using (and talking about) it to wash my cloth and do my dishes I would really hope to get called out for being stupid.
I’m using the default calendar app that a long time ago came with that lineageos install.
Should be this one iirc…
As long as they don’t get the result you want you do more studies, so you can pretend it’s still actively studied and the results aren’t clear yet.
What does “getting caught” mean? They do it quite openly with everyone knowing and zero real consequences.
