"Don't roll your own crypto" is a psyop by the NSA, to simplify their efforts in cryptanalysis. You should absolutely invent your own cryptographic protocols, make them as deranged as only possible.

The CEO of Mozilla earns more money than Linux Foundation spends on the Linux kernel. Let that sink in for a second.

It starts with JavaScript, or, I suppose, the lack thereof. The community has become rather insistent that the language is to be avoided at all costs, and for good reason. By nature, it is vulnerability prone, and it provides many avenues for fingerprinting, despite Tor’s best efforts to prevent it. The website must be fully featured without a single line of JavaScript, which leads to some creative programming.

The only acceptable solution to the JavaScript problem is...

TOTAL JAVASCRIPT DEATH

@Arwalk Valve dudes are unhappy that FDO autists take years (literally) to pass even the most basic of protocols and started their own repo of Wayland extensions, open for submissions from anyone.

I love how Wayland people are forced upon a sudden realisation that their endless cycle of self-proclaimed bureaucratic circlejerk isn't flying with most people. Especially those who want a working desktop windowing system.

Gaben and his people are the true saviours of L'Eunuchs.

Imagine the world is Emacs used Scheme instead...

@Suiseiseki nobody gives a crap about the utter failure that is GNU

@kirby it was never even alive to begin with

@kirby Eunuchs is dead

Just a gentle reminder. All this modern IDE tooling that you've grown to rely upon makes you an objectively worse programmer.

Even though NULL is the holy cow of C programmers, treated very specially by C compilers, technically nothing stops you from doing this.

~ sudo sysctl vm.mmap_min_addr=0
vm.mmap_min_addr = 0

~ cat null.c
#include
#include
#include

int main(void) {
char *addr = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_READ|PROT_WRITE, MAP_SHARED|MAP_FIXED|MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
if (addr == MAP_FAILED) {
perror("mmap");
return 1;
}
printf("We have successfully mapped %p\n", addr);
strcpy(addr, "ON NOES YOU HAVE WORMS IN YOUR NULL");
printf("%s\n", NULL);
}
~ gcc null.c -o null
~ ./null

We have successfully mapped (nil)
ON NOES YOU HAVE WORMS IN YOUR NULL

WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW?

I can also bet money that this thing runs some kind of BSD lol

Modern versions of the PSP utilize an on-die ARMv7 Cortex-A5 core, which starts before x86 cores are taken out of reset.

I thoroughly enjoy that every x86 CPU is a whole computer with an ARM chip and x86 co-processor cores in disguise.

Where do you get computer science news? Lambda the Ultimate has been comatose for some time now.

@iska @icedquinn what is it with lispers hating scheme so much?

Lispbros, it's so over...

x86 is a bad architecture and I'm hopeful that it dies soon.

Daily reminder that Mozilla today are a bunch of petty ass-backwards retarded clowns. And everyone responsible for its regression to the current state deserves to be pumped full of molten lead mixed with acid through a spiked urethra catheter.

@dcc @rek2 @threat no, you are just being petty about some dude on the internet not liking your favourite software

@dcc @rek2 @threat i wouldn't know what a hot dog with shit tastes like, but I'm glad you've had this experience for all of us.
