The last one might be able to rent an apartment some 10km of that area...

Factorio allows you to transfer items between space stations now.

IDK if that's the kind of thing the post is about, and there has certainly not been 5 years. Also, no time for Yay!, because I'm busy designing some space platform fabric...

Each clone gets the same number of lives preserved from the original, of course. A clone doesn't take a life away form the original.

You should be focusing on what happens when the transporter kills the original. That's where the situation gets iffy.

Every language has bugs, every program has bugs.

Not like php, no.

Lots of people write web sites in rust.

I don't think it's a great choice. But it does beat php.

Because it works.

As evident from this week troubles, no it doesn't.

Just to add. Those private keys are a 85 to 170 digits random number.

A very central company whose security the entire internet depends on picked 00000000000....0000004.

Yes, government agencies can do MITM whenever they want.

Also, take a look at the remote management functionality of your computer.

Yeah... It's a 384 bits key, so there some 150 zeros there in front of the four.

horses was last released in 2024, and can only run on python up to 3.12.

horses depends on iron-making, that is up to date. That means the current version of iron-making depends on python >= 3.14, and that all the versions prior to 2025 were taken offline due to a CVE where if you run the library as root in a web backend that uses the make_nail function, people can open your barn doors without authorization when inside it.

That's how you do passwords. The alternative you are looking for is keys, and the entire internet decided those are toxic and no user must be able to handle them (except for the ones that give monopoly over authentication to Apple and Google, a lot of people like those).

Well, it was new in the 90s...

But it's still somewhat correct. It's getting less and less so with time, but still applies.

 

As a developer that learned it once, a long time ago, naturally I sign to the pledge...

I have some doubts if I should mark it NSFW.

 

All those student protests on the US seem to be about stopping their universities from supporting the Israel government. But supporting a foreign government is not a normal thing for a university to do, why do they do it?

Is there some educational or research resource they get?

 

The links like !NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world.

I have had a pretty bad time making those work. I have tried searching for them at the communities page, and removing the exclamation mark and pasting them on my instance (lemmy.world/c/NoStupidQuestions@lemmy.world).

Some times one of those works, other times my instance finds nothing. And if I go directly to the home instance of the community, it doesn't bring my login.

What is the recommended way to use those?
