Right, and everything Russia does is amazing. Come on, whilst I agree that NATO is definitely more of an aggressor in this conflict than western media portrays, that doesn’t excuse the atrocities committed within it, no more than I can accept the atrocities committed within my own western country.
All governments do bad things, and objection to one of those things does not equate unbridled support for their enemies. To see the world so black and white is hollywood fiction.
inform me then, otherwise I’m just going to propagate whatever specific thing you’re vaguely objecting to
Oh sorry, I thought you were trolling me by literally writing “removed”. I just now followed your fediverse link and can see that you wrote “removed”.
Yes that word is replaced on the server. I would say it’s a bit overkill too, but hey it’s a derogatory word towards women, so I think there are more general words like “fuck”, “shit”, “dick” and “cunt” that can be swapped in to convey the same point.
Ah I see, you’re baiting me. Have a good day, sir!
Our physics department used KDE managed over network shares implemented by one professor in his free time, in complete defiance of the rest of the university which used windows.
Even now they’re still holding out strong, whilst Microsoft eats the rest of the university alive.
(sidenote: I get it, tech support in Linux is vritually non-existent, whilst tech-support in Windows is everywhere)
Octave FTW. Matlab is such a corporate cesspool
You can’t use racial slurs or derogatory words, but you don’t actually need to resort to such profanity to communicate a point… and I feel that if you do, then you probably are worth filtering out.
Eh, as long as you’re not spreading western propaganda you can pretty much say what you want. Fuck Russia!
Kids seem more aware of toxic behaviours and seem to clock their mental health better than I ever did. Even 10 years ago, talking about mental health was considered a taboo.
I do too, but the LED is so bright that it lights up the entire plastic from within
The questionable commit:
{
// Add the first line of localized text...
cupsFilePrintf(fp, "*%s.%s %s/", lang->language, ppd_option, ppd_choice);
while (*text && *text != '\n')
{
// Escape ":" and "<"...
if (*text == ':' || *text == '<')
cupsFilePrintf(fp, "<%02X>", *text);
else
cupsFilePutChar(fp, *text);
text ++;
}
cupsFilePuts(fp, ": \"\"\n");
}
Can someone explain to me how this allows arbitrary code execution? As far as I can see, all it does iterate through a string and markup some special characters.
Edit: Okay, after reading the blog post, and this fantastic bug report, it sounds like to print to a CUPS server, you send it a message on port 631 using an IPP (some print protocol) server. CUPS then requests attributes of the IPP server, one of which being the print filter command to run (“Foomatic-rip”) to use to convert a PS or PDF into native print code. By requesting attributes, an exploit involving string escaping through the use of unexpected spaces or quotes can override the Foomatic print command. Arbitrary text can be supplanted, which will then be executed by the CUPS server.
Fuck blue LED’s in general. No I don’t want to be able to see my Wifi repeater doubling as an adult nightlight.
Exactly. Is it just a webpage served up with some native UI buttons to make it look more glossy? Are app permissions implemented as separate system users under POSIX? How many apps are written in languages/frameworks running from interpreters, and how many actually touch bare metal? Are app media that use Gallery permissions duplicating data or linking to it?
No one knows what an app is, the app development frameworks I learned 10 years ago are no longer relevant and have likely shifted to a whole new paradigm. If it looks perplexing to me, I can imagine it looks like magic to non-techies.
Does Russian have stricter grammar syntax than German? I was a bit puzzled by the comparison made above
Lisp (specifically IPL) is Proto-Indo-European. All languages have unwittingly taken inspiration from it
The B word at present targets women specifically. The other words can be used extremely generally and even liberally in good humour over the pond.
I’m quite surprised you take the opposite position on this, but I’m happy to learn more.
