If you want any system to connect to you, you need to open a port. You don't need to do that for outgoing connections (the OS and your router will automatically open ports for the return connection). So if everybody connects to one central system, nobody needs to (explicitly) open any ports (except for the central connection point)

Most VPNs use UDP. So set up a wireguard, tailscale or openvpn.

But you still need to "open up the firewall". UDP still works on ports the same way as TCP. I do agree however, that exposing a VPN port is more secure than exposing a port for a game server, as you don't know about the security of that server software.

That works for humans too:

Which makes breaking up with him a good thing... Dating him is probably a very high paying job even if it is a shit job.

(I know literally nothing about the women or her relationship to musk)

Exactly. Bilbo had the ring for 50+ years and he never used it to get more money fame or power. Because neither interested him. He used it in the end to disappear because he wanted his peace and solitude.

Wait so without the option it checks against the system trust store and with the option it does exactly the same (but may also includes an additional CA if that was passed as the argument)?

This should be a cve. There is a security feature. It does not work as documented. That's a vulnerability. That should get a cve.

Wtf apple

Or it was not really news worthy and got inflated by the media untill it was.

Can you verify the software running on an instance is the same as the one in the source code repository? You can't. Can you verify the instance isn't running code to read passwords from your login requests even if the code is the original open source code? You can't.

That's why (and for other reasons) you should never use a password for more than one site/service/instance.

Lemmy admins (admins in the Lemmy application) probably can't read your password. But everyone with admin rights on the server operating system can.

A drive label is just a string that can be set by any privileged process. Seems like this installation of the new distro didn't do that. Or you skipped a step in the install where you could have chosen the drive label.

If it is a bug in the installer or if you missed it, I can't tell.

But you can just change it in gparted or something else.

Absolutely. But MS chose to go the evil route again and ask right when you want to open a link. In that situation users want to open a link and not choose browsers so they are more likely to click on edge. It is deliberately annoying which is what op is angry about

Corporations are doing a bad job at it as well. While Gouvernement standards tend to be slow and stagnant, the free market produces an incomprehensible sea of standards. Like with USB, HDMI, 3/4G signals, cat-X Internet cables. If a single global manufacturer decides to do things slightly different you get a new version of a standard that everybody has to be compatible with.
