Capitalism bad, sure, but you can’t deny it has a way of making things scalable and affordable. If some venture co started the infrastructure to mass produce this stuff and make it possible for everybody to afford it would it be that bad?

Yeah of course I wasn’t serious.

I was pointing out the silliness of referring to something that old as “latest”. This article was just necroed by unilad and suddenly it’s fresh news again.

February 22

latest

We haven’t had signs for 18 months, that ain’t bad

Since when is unilad a reputable source?

I struggled to find this story on any outlet that isn’t a tabloid, an official-sounding never-heard-before bumfucknowhere gazette or a repeater like msn.

The original article seems to be from the guardian (quoted as such by the university itself) in a far less sensationalist way. It was written so long ago that people still thought Russia was a superpower, unilad decided to sensationalise it and publish it as fresh news one and a half years later.

The story is worrying don’t get me wrong, but this is just doom porn.

Bah, se avessi mai conosciuto un egiziano sapresti che culturalmente sono molto più simili a noi rispetto agli ucraini. Abbiamo molto di più a che spartire con gli altri mediterranei che con gli slavi est europei.

Detto questo ben vengano un milione di ucraini che scappano dalla guerra, in galera gli africani che rubano (e anche benvenuti gli africani che scappano dalla guerra e in galera gli ucraini che rubano, quali che siano le proporzioni) ma non rifugiamoci dietro “muh cultura” che è un razzismo coi baffi finti.

Sto invidiando i nord coreani per come vengono trattati dal loro governo…

Sono sicuro che vicino a te ci sia almeno un aeroporto, buon viaggio.

Se immigrare in Corea del Nord è troppo difficile c’è sempre la Russia, lì sono sempre felici di accettare immigrati che scappano dalla dittatura della sinistra in Europa.

Ciao 👋

Well yes, after breaking countless tools with repercussions possibly in the decade range, punching security holes in systems that were hardened with certain expectations (my head aches at the amount of “lol the admin didn’t restrict .config/ssh”) - after all this havoc we will have a native bsd server software that finally complies with a Linux desktop standard. I don’t see downsides to this.

They are not BS reasons, they are just reasons you don’t like. The OpenBSD team - those behind OpenSSH - are very conservative to the point of being almost reactionary, and that’s great for the kind of software they make. OpenBSD defines itself as “boring”, in a good way.

Coming from a Linux world it may seem weird, as around Linux innovation is praised more than improvement so we end up with a bunch of shiny new software with a lot of growing pains, while BSDs tend to be avantgarde on some technical aspects but at the same time very wary of novelty. OpenBSD in particular takes this to the next level with most of development still happening on CVS and many other quirks that would baffle most Linux users.

To each their own. Personally when it’s security stuff I like it boring. I’ve been using openssh since version 2.x and the muscle memory built 20 years ago is still serving me.

Edit: just to be clear, for ssh Linux is a second class citizen. On our distros we run a special (less secure) “portable” version of ssh that they release for us poor peasants. OpenSSH is an OpenBSD tool first, everything else after.

The idea of a console where the manufacturer doesn’t have total control over the OS is ludicrous, no way a Windows box is ever going to “kill” the deck

Wrong sub for that kind of answer bruh
