Oh no, what bullshit is it this time?

Is OpenBSD seriously still using CVS for development?

The actual aluminium that people work with in actual real life are also alloys.

How about when they say “a phenomena”?
- Comment on The 1950s were wild... 4 months ago:
Generally yes, but what’s shown here isn’t, it only looks a bit like it if you ignore the clearly spelled out context.

Okay, who is “they”?

It’s getting increasingly carbonated, though…

About 20 years ago, Microsoft was found guilty and convicted, because they forced their browser on their users, driving out competitors by abusing their de facto monopoly on PC operating systems. These days, they are doing the exact same thing again, just on an even broader base. I don’t even understand how this verdict took so long.
- Comment on The unstoppable rise of batteries is leading to a domino effect that puts half of global fossil fuel demand at risk 9 months ago:
Batteries take “rare earth metals” like cobalt.
Some Lithium-Ion batteries use Cobalt, but many don’t. Lithium-Iron-Phosphate, for example, is a popular variant without any Cobalt. There is a push going on to move to battery chemistries without Cobalt or to reduce the actual amount of Cobalt where it is still required.
- Comment on Hetzner Server auction worth it? 10 months ago:
Wait, they managed to forge Let’s Encrypt certificates? While it explains the attack on TLS (though technically not https as originally claimed, not that it makes much of a difference), that’s even worse…
- Comment on Hetzner Server auction worth it? 10 months ago:
Really? That’s a rather big claim, and would change a lot for me if true. Do you have anything by the way of a source?
Also, how do you snoop https traffic without one of the parties just handing you their keys?
- Comment on Hetzner Server auction worth it? 10 months ago:
In your case, instead of getting a dedicated server and putting proxmox on it, I would check if it might not be cheaper to just get individual virtual servers directly.
Other than that, sure, I have been a customer for many years now, and I have always been a fan of Hetzner’s price to quality ratio.

Not necessarily, more like GoDaddy was the domain swatter that was holding on to that domain until Musk decided to pay the ransom. We cannot tell from the screenshot what registrar he uses for that domain now.
We can, however, tell from whois, and what do you know, it’s godaddy…
- Comment on "X.com now points to https://twitter.com/" 1 year ago:
In fairness, DNS entries do get cached for a while (usually 24 hours), so you might have gotten a stale version of the resource record. It’s even entirely possible that whatever DNS resolver Musk uses did have the up to date version already while yours did not.
Still, Twitter should double and triple checked that this works even from other resolvers before announcing it like this.
