Hirom,

Not having the right to work doesn’t necessarily mean asylum seeker won’t work. I suspect it make them more likely to accept undeclared odd jobs. In which case they wouldn’t work less, but would pay no taxes, and have worse working conditions.

Hirom,

Si les électeurs étaient conscients de l’activité réelle du FN/RN au parlement, Bardella aurais beaucoup moins d’électeurs

Not surprising. If there’s a way for a non-admin user to use this, it means there’s probably a way for a non-admin process to access the data.

Even if if were more secure, there’s probably plenty of ways for attackers to escalate privileges to admin.

The bigger issue is Microsoft providing an official tool for snooping on user activity. Malware won’t have to install their own, and recall taking screenshots periodically won’t be considered anomalous behaviour since it’s an official Microsoft service.

Hirom,

This is a common issue in software, not limited to scripting. Software are getting more and more layers of wrappers/adapter code, like a Russian doll. It contributes to dependency hell, as each layer brings new dependencies.

Developers often find it easier to wrap existing apps and software, and add another layer on top, rather than improving or replacing what exists.

Hirom,

Every new signal defy explanation for a little while, until it’s explained.

Hirom,

Apparently not yet, astronomers are still waiting for the signal to repeat to appropriately study it.

METI president Douglas Vakoch told Die Welt that any putative SETI signal detections must be replicated for confirmation, and the lack of such replication for the Wow! signal means it has little credibility.[3

For now there are just guesses. If such burst isn’t a fluke and repeats, astronomers will get a chance to better study it and provide a confident explanation.

No toothbrush will last a lifetime, so maybe don’t put $320 in it

Can I refuse MS Authenticator?

So my company decided to migrate office suite and email etc to Microsoft365. Whatever. But for 2FA login they decided to disable the option to choose “any authenticator” and force Microsoft Authenticator on the (private) phones of both employees and volunteers. Is there any valid reason why they would do this, like it’s...

Hirom, (edited )

If the company cared, they would provide MFA hardware like Yubikeys to their employees.

Hirom, (edited )

That’s the solution I picked at work. Refused to install that Microsoft software on my personal phone, but instead provided a phone number.

If you have a VoIP provider you could even try to the VoIP number for MFA instead of providing your real mobile number.

If IT make a comment about you not having the app, ask if they intend to provide a company device for that.

Hirom,

L’émission parle de vieux sites qui sont restés en ligne, pas de faille restantes.

Ça n’est pas rassurant, mais pas la peine d’en rajouter.

Hirom,

Diminuer la consommation est la priorité et il y a différents moyens d’y parvenir.

Cela dit, les décisions de Total ont une importance indépendamment de la quantité produite.

Total peut produire des énergies fossiles de différentes façon, avec ou sans sable bitumineux, avec ou sans fracking, en évitant ou non le fuites de méthane.

Hirom,

124 countries isn’t nothing. The list include countries from all continents, many Europeans and African countries, Australia, Canada, Mexico, … . Being under an arrest warrant which applies in all 124 countries would be a major pain, even if USA & China & Russia are missing from that list.

Hirom,

Ahah, I just told myself: cannot wait for Adam Something to debunk this

Hirom,

Many of these are Google Play Services features, so it won’t be available to users open-source Android flavors that are google-free.

Hirom,

In that blog post, google does not commit to open sourcing these play services features, to integrate in future system upgrade.

I would love to be proven wrong.

Ghostery, Disconnect, Privacy Badger, etc

Privacy Badger does more than dFPI. dFPI just isolate cookies. Privacy Badger blocks cookies. And completely block connection to some hosts that are dedicated to tracking, which prevent other forms of tracking that aren’t cookie-based.

Hirom,

I wonder if that’d work, or if the Great Firewall of China already blocks it in Hong Kong

Hirom,

They had a choice between complying to censorship, or refusing to play along and if necessary stop doing business in Hong Kong.

In the past, Google Search got out of China for the same reason.

Hirom,

There are 42 RIPE Atlas probes online in Hong Kong.

Someone part of the Atlas network could check this against various probes.

Le coût de la transition est très inférieur aux futurs coût des dégâts causés par la dégradation de l’environnement.

En réduisant les moyens de la transition, on augmente la future dette.

It’s better to make it locally, than to have it shipped by plane across the world.

The french flag is a bit surprising given it’s not made in France, but it’s flattering since that means Japanese like french stuff.
