You DONT want to turn it off. Digital forensics work WAAAAAAY better if you have a memory dump of the system. And all the memory is lost if you turn it off. Even if the virus ran 10h ago and the program has long stoped running, there will most likely still be traces in the RAM. Like a hard drive, simply deleting something in RAM doesn’t mean it is gone. As long as that specific area was not written over later it will still hold the same contenta. You can sometimes find memory that belonged to a virus days or even weeks after the infection if the system was never shut down. There is so much information in ram that is lost when the power is turned off.

You want to 1: quarantine from network (don’t pull the cable at the system, but firewall it at the switch if possible) 2: take a full copy of the RAM 2.5: read out bitlocker keys if the drive is encrypted. 3: turn off and take a bitwise copy of the hard drive or just send the drive + memory dump to the forensics team. 4: get coffee

No. It’s not a magic invisibility field inside. It’s a magic object that works only on living “intelligent” creatures. It also doesn’t work the same on different races. Only humans (hobbits are a subtype of human in Tolkiens lore) turn invisible. And because it’s magic it also turns their clothing etc invisible. So either Frodo and his poop is invisible or nothing is.

There is a famous experiment , where a person gets 100$, and have to offer an arbitrary percentage of that to a stranger. If the stranger declines, both get nothing.

From the strangers perspective, getting offered even 1$ is a win, but the vast majority rejected anything below 30%

By design nothing in the chain can be altered. But of course you could have a block indicating “person X is now person Y”. But you can always read that Y was at some point X (and at what point the change happened). That would not be good, as it would be a public ledger of all trans people. It would also make things like witness protection impossible because inserting a block “today in 2024, person W was born in 1974” is very suspicious

Yeah the bird is on a flat roof maybe a garage or something similar on the same height or slightly below the window

> energy equals mass

That doesn’t mean energy has a weight.

It means it is physically possible to transition energy to mass and vice versa. Sunlight hitting the earth does not add any weight.

Edit: turns out that part was wrong

Also, earth radiates heat out to space. At a rate of (aaaaaaaaalmost, because of the greenhouse effect) 100% of the energy we get from the sun. If it didn’t, earth would be a few million degrees hot by now…

Can’t remember exactly what happened but it involved changing permissions on /bin /sbin and similar. You know for security …

In the end I didn’t have permissions to run chmod, su or sudo

Fortunately there is little that can’t be fixed by booting from a live image.

I don’t think the mushrooms are the problem in that situation

If you want any system to connect to you, you need to open a port. You don’t need to do that for outgoing connections (the OS and your router will automatically open ports for the return connection). So if everybody connects to one central system, nobody needs to (explicitly) open any ports (except for the central connection point)

Most VPNs use UDP. So set up a wireguard, tailscale or openvpn.

But you still need to “open up the firewall”. UDP still works on ports the same way as TCP. I do agree however, that exposing a VPN port is more secure than exposing a port for a game server, as you don’t know about the security of that server software.

Or it was not really news worthy and got inflated by the media untill it was.

A drive label is just a string that can be set by any privileged process. Seems like this installation of the new distro didn’t do that. Or you skipped a step in the install where you could have chosen the drive label.

If it is a bug in the installer or if you missed it, I can’t tell.

But you can just change it in gparted or something else.

Well maybe it’s multiple choice.

• “Dong, beard broad shoulders”
• “Tits, hips, smaller waist”
• “Character deleted on death”

Choose any combination you want

In the spirit of the meme this does not constitute “finding” the radius. There doesn’t exist a radius for which both the radius and the circumference are rational numbers.

Well now you can’t find the radius

The thing that confused me when first learning about docker was, that everybody compares it to a virtual machine. It’s not. Containers dont virtualize anything. They take a (single) process from the host OS and separate that into its own environment. All system calls, memory access, file writes etc are still handled by the same os (same kernel). However the process is separated both on the file system and process level. It can’t see other processes outside of the container and it also doesn’t see the real filesystem. It sees a filesystem provided by the container. This also means it sees different file and user permissions. When you run a alpine Linux docker container on an Ubuntu system, the container only containes the (few) files for alpine but no Linux kernel no desktop environment. A process inside that container only sees the alpine files and not the Ubuntu files. It also means all containers see a filesystem independent of each other and can use libraries and dependencies of different versions (they are only files after all).

For administration it makes running complex services easy. You define how to setup that service (what base Linux distro to use, what packages to install, what commands to run, and how to start the process). You can then be save to assume the setup of that service did not interfere with the setup of any other service. “Service 1 needs a certain system wide config changed? Service 2 needs that config in the default state? And both need a different version of the same library?” In containers you can have all at the same time because they each see a different version of the same config and library.

And all this is provided by the kernel itself. All docker does is provide an “easy” way to create and manage containers but could could do all of that using chroot, runc and a few other.

As a note, containers usually don’t come with systemd as they don’t need an init system. You would run the service directly inside the container and then use systemd outside the container to make sure the container is started/restarted, or just docker as it can already do that.

I found a great article demystifying containers recently

As has been the case for all UAVs of the past and they are still called “unmanned”. Manned used to mean “person on board” and it obviously does not mean that anymore. A remote controlled drone is still unmanned.

Yes they want to differentiate it from a AI controlled drone but it’s a stupid way to do so.

Lol when did “unmanned Areal vehicles” become “remotely manned”. They are not manned that’s the whole fuckin point.

The stomach isn’t like a big cave with a pool af acid in it. It is compacted by muscles around it so if you are swallowed whole, you would have to fight against those muscles to even be able to move at all. If your arms are above your head it’s likely you would die before you are able to move them to your hips to draw your knives. If they are at your hips, good look moving the knives to point outwards. Also the stomache is lined with thick mucous to protect it from sharp objects… Also it’s completely dark and disorienting.

It’s almost certainly you’d drown, suffocate and get crushed VERY quickly after getting swallowed alive.
