If you use a /23 you can use the middle .0 too.
My favourite dumb networking trick though is that Linux lets you use an IPv6 address as an IPv4 gateway.
ip -4 route add default via inet6 fe80::1 dev eth0
That works so long as the gateway is running dual stack.
The advantage to Steam going 64-bit is that most people can now remove all their 32-bit libraries.
Previously you needed 32-bit libraries for most of the actual games you ran through Steam, so it didn’t really matter if Steam used them too.
It’s not just the drive letter mapping, Wine doesn’t make any attempt to secure software.
You can run Wine inside an actual security solution.
Yeah, Wine is not a secure container. Don’t count on it for security.
Probably broadcasting to try and find a phone running the control app, except a software bug set the broadcast delay to zero so it was sending thousands of broadcasts per second.
It’s not the snooping, it’s companies making their own incompatible proprietary system and jealously guarding it to force you to only buy their stuff, except everybody else is doing the same thing so the actual result is that getting things working together and keeping it all working is a pain in the ass.
Those do actually go down. Hospitals have to be evacuated after an earthquake, airports force all aircraft to divert or the grid has the sort of outage that gets it’s own Wikipedia page and needs to be black started.
I upgraded to 64GB RAM a year or so ago which I didn’t really need, but it was cheap so why not.
How things have changed.
You can dig as deep as you care to, all the way down to source code. And if you can’t read code, you can learn to. If you don’t want to spend the time, that’s completely reasonable. But it’s your choice.
Microsoft never learns
I mean, everyone who gets hit by this is going to keep paying their Windows licenses, so it isn’t Microsoft who has something to learn in this scenario
Okay, but as soon as something like this starts to catch on Microsoft removes those settings in an update.
Legend has it that they moved to “Press a key to continue” because then people would just press A, which would work.
Your distro can also decide what version to be on for each package. Slackware regularly rolls back a broken package until upstream fixes it.
It makes sense if you think about it, but seeing IPv6 addresses in the IPv4 routing table still makes professional network engineers stop and boggle for a moment
