- Comment on Docker - what use is it? 8 months ago:
Containers, the concept that Docker implements, lets app developers give a self-contained environment for distribution. For devs that means consistency in deployments across environments, which in turn means sysadmins can deploy each of these apps as fully isolated units.
With that, you get really clean installs/updates/uninstalls, and your deployments get done with a well-defined, declarative definition file which can also handle multi service dependencies (a la Docker Compose/K8s)
- Comment on Microsoft waited 6 months to patch actively exploited admin-to-kernel vulnerability 8 months ago:
The firmware has to allow it, so if you’ve got physical access to the machine that’s possible. Remote access root, on the other hand, can’t tell the firmware to register new keys as long as it’s configured correctly
- Comment on Microsoft waited 6 months to patch actively exploited admin-to-kernel vulnerability 8 months ago:
Generally yes. For many distros, the kernel signing key is with the distro maintainers and so the package comes with pre-signed kernel images. For distros like Arch and Gentoo, it’s the user’s responsibility to maintain the signing key and sign each updated kernel

- Comment on How does ripping a CD/DVD work exactly? Is it similar to copying or does it leave the CD/DVD unusable? 9 months ago:
I’ve rarely used CDs/DVDs but AFAIK it’s practically just a copy. Your PC can read the CD’s data, so it just saves that into a file
- Comment on First functional graphene semiconductor paves the path to post-silicon chips — Georgia Tech researchers' material can be used with standard chipmaking methods 10 months ago:
I’m not talking about C itself, I’m talking about the programming language Carbon, aimed at being a compatible alternative 😅
- Comment on First functional graphene semiconductor paves the path to post-silicon chips — Georgia Tech researchers' material can be used with standard chipmaking methods 10 months ago:
It’s by your comment that I’ve now finally realised the C-alternative programming language Carbon was named as a nod to the name and element C
- Comment on Is this Instance down? 10 months ago:
I feel like that’d defeat the purpose of having redundancy in case the main instance itself goes down 🤔

For the record, you have sent me back on a nostalgia trip for 2016 memes and music edits
Thank you

He did eventually take one later on, which I can imagine must’ve been a bit of a painful decision ;-;
