A lot of people like to call C low level, maybe in modern times that's fair? It misses the historical context of why it's not usually considered one though and it's ultimately sort of relative.

But if you read the article even valve said fsync was basically good enough, why go this far if the improvements compared to fsync aren't amazing?

XD, I do, I already build my own kernel and turn it off...just saying I don't like it

I mean...the code isn't copied but the design is and it honestly frustrates me. Like yes Linux performance is improving...but I personally don't like adding kernel functionality specifically for the benefit of wine

I don't think you have to, I believe Google play services has an SMS auto verification thingy that can basically do this for you in the background. Google play services needs SMS access for it but...well it has that on stock roms

Even if it was built in it probably wouldn't get full root, SELinux borks a lot of root exploits even if they privesc correctly.

Weirdly and oppositely this is actually how bees reproduce. Fertilized eggs become female, unfertilized become male

Went and looked it up, Android officially supports Armv7, Armv8, x86, amd64, and riscv64, so it's missing riscv but otherwise mostly correct

I'm not OP but maybe it's not specifically rust that's the problem but the fact that uutils is not actually a fully compatible replacement yet and he just wants gnutils

Rustless, mint? Probably just use LMDE

This is disappointing but I also didn't trust meta enough to believe it in the first place.

SELinux breaks a lot of android root exploits, way back in the day even dirty cow didn't work. It would get you "root" but not actually the full perms because of SELinux. Really good testament to the added security of MAC, it's one of the reasons I run apparmor on my systems

 

Are there any currently available RISC-V dev boards that support the H extension for running KVM?

 

TIL that apparently capital one was assigned the entire 2630::/16 block...which is the largest assignment I've seen to date. Does anyone know of other absolutely massive allocations...are there even any others this large?

 

I've been using duckduckgo for years ever since I degoogled but I'm increasingly annoyed by its complete lack of IPv6 connectivity. I use NAT64 and so it works fine but it bothers me to use services that don't have v6. Does someone have a good non-google IPv6 search engine that's privacy respecting?

I'm curious about something so I'm going to throw this thought experiment out here. For some background I run a pure IPv6 network and dove into v6 ignoring any v4 baggage so this is more of a devils advocate question than anything I genuinely believe.

Onto the question, why should I run a /64 subnet and waste all those addresses as opposed to running a /96 or even a /112?

  1. It breaks SLAAC and Android

let's assume I don't care for whatever reason and I'm content with DHCP, maybe android actually supports DHCP in this alternate universe

  1. It breaks RFC3306 aka Unicast-prefix-based multicast groups

No applications I care about are impacted by this breakage

  1. It violates the purity of the spec

I don't care

What advantages does running a /64 provide over smaller subnets? Especially subnets like a /96 where address count still far exceeds usage so filling subnets remains impossible.

 
 

This has been my setup for a long time now and I have to say I still absolutely love it.
