“Yet” as if it will ever

found that at least one implementation of the end-to-end encryption solution endorsed by ETSI has a similar issue that makes it equally vulnerable to eavesdropping. The encryption algorithm used for the device they examined starts with a 128-bit key, but this gets compressed to 56 bits before it encrypts traffic, making it easier to crack. It’s not clear who is using this implementation of the end-to-end encryption algorithm, nor if anyone using devices with the end-to-end encryption is aware of the security vulnerability in them.

STOP DOING THIS. Just like… Stop doing it. I thought this would be a MITM handshake thing but no. Use your brain. 128 bits of entropy minimum. 56 bits is a million CPU seconds at 1Billion gesses a second.

Du-duoy

Eh. That’s like saying speed chess “is not at all comparable” to chess. There’s differences but it’s the same game. In this case speed coding still relies on the programmers understanding of the problem. There’s just usually less edge cased you have to handle (usually input can be read in a less safe way because it’s in a specific format, and others)

Matrix is good in theory but its plagued by absolutely shit clients.

European average carbon footprint for video streaming as producing 55g of CO₂e per hour. This CO₂e or carbon dioxide equivalent is a comparable measure of the potential effect of different greenhouse gases on the climate: 55g of CO₂e is 50 times more than audio streaming and the equivalent of microwaving four bags of popcorn

What the fuck is this article? This is not helpful in any way. Yeah du-doy the thing that uses electricity “creates” carbon. How bout we remove fossil fuels from the grid then?

1.1g per hour is ridiculously efficient. An average meal in the Western world is ~3Kg.

How many times did they do this?

Link?

Ads are malware (software maliciously made to do something the user doesn’t want), yes. :3

Yeah i was expecting the externalized cost route with this one.

The thing is that these carbon credits make it so that things which would otherwise reduce CO2 in the atmosphere don’t happen unless some money changes hands. Most of the time credits effectively do nothing.

to offset AI carbon emissions

Does it actually do that?

Which do you recommend? How well does it work? :)

Yeah how the hell do you do this?

Or just outright don’t allow it at all on Linux as if that does anything whatsoever.

Activity -> history -> “i” button.

Rowhammer is a method of attempting to corrupt memory by repeatedly “hammering” rows of memory cells with a burst of read or write operations. The repeat operations can create electrical interference between rows of memory cells, potentially disrupting operations.

So Nvidia cheaps out on DRAM? That’s the problem? What’s the “mitigation” they’re suggesting? Buy a new GPU?

Can somebody TLDR and determine if there’s any useful information in this article. I refuse to read quanta magazine.

Conference measures! That’ll fix it!

How TF are these contracts so hackable?
