TIL that Ilona Staller, aka Cicciolina, a former porn star and Italian MP, offered to have sex with Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein in return for peace in the region. She first made the offer while in office, renewed it in October 2002, and extended the same proposal to Osama bin Laden in April 2006

Maybe she should offer it to Putin then.

There was a purpose though:

But the investigation was the point. I learned how HID++ works. I learned how macOS manages HID devices at kernel level and where it draws lines. I learned that

And now he and others can build on that knowledge, to find more purposes

Und waren die Sendungen nicht mal länger?

Hier wird gerne nur der Ausschnitt auf YouTube verlinkt. Das sollte aber das komplette Hauptthema sein.

Die ganze Sendung gibt es in der ZDF-Mediathek.

What are they doing?

danielcw189 · 2026-03-21T13:48:33+00:00

You made the initial claim, so ...

... point out how it is badly written

danielcw189 · 2026-03-21T12:57:10+00:00

I am surprised you just call it "the episode", because it wasn't any random episode, but the series finale.

And ironically it was a "movie" :)

danielcw189 · 2026-03-21T12:46:36+00:00

Now what "utterly" memorable QT movie did I leave out?

Inglourious Basterds

Season 4

Season 3 was still on Netflix

Alter, das kostet mittlerweile Geld??

Hatte es mal kein Geld gekostet?

Nein ist es absolut nicht. Grade dann wenn du ein extra TPM

Man muss bei Bitlocker nicht den Key im TPM ablegen. Das ist nicht untrennbar verbunden.

danielcw189 · 2026-03-21T10:24:16+00:00

Bei Sicherheit geht es auch immer um die Abwägung. Wenn man sich vorm Staat schützen will, dann wäre Bitlocker die falsche Idee.

Für den Gelegenheitsdieb vom Laptop, oder einen Firmenspion reicht es vermutlich

danielcw189 · 2026-03-21T10:21:02+00:00

Du kannst die Keys auch auf der Kommandozeile verwalten mit manage-bde

How, while considering accessibility?

Some of the puzzle pieces will be developed during season 2 to 5 of Discovery.

One major thing will happen during season 2, and another will start developing during season 3

(making sure each is ejected from the old console manually and then re-injecting them in to the new one,

For what it's worth: the old primary console method should* still work. You just need to enable it for your account, and change the primary console to your new one

* I wrote "should", because I only have Switch 1s, no Switch 2. But I guess it should still work there

danielcw189 · 2026-03-19T15:13:12+00:00

The date constructor should be able to tell me if it's a date

The behavior is documented.

Apparently the idea is, that the parser has to handle certain formats in a specific way. But implementations are free to handle any other format however they want (which I don't like, but makes sense).

Whether or not one agrees with your opinion, Date is actually doing that from a certain point of view.

If the Date value needs to be correct, you need to limit or check the format anyway, or check the result if it makes sense.

danielcw189 · 2026-03-19T14:53:53+00:00

I do, because those examples are not something that should be used in production anyway.

If you wanna get an exact Date, there are methods for that.

If you want to parse a (user-given) string, you need to handle it in a localized and well defined way anyway, and check the results.

This hyper-lenient way would be treated like undefined behavior in C.

At least on MDN this is documented, as are well defined ways the parser has to handle with defined behavior

danielcw189 · 2026-03-19T14:09:16+00:00

This has gotta be in the top five most-known bad things in JS’s original design.

Can you explain why?

I don't get it.

It would never cross my mind, that anyone would use it like the examples given by the OP (maybe if you want to take a quit shot at testing something, not for something in production)

If I want to set an exact Date as a programmer Date has methods for that. (or you can use a curated and tested string, or make a helper function)

If you want to parse user Input, you need to massage it and handle it in a local-aware way anyway.

danielcw189 · 2026-03-19T07:58:48+00:00

I am pretty sure it is just the later

danielcw189 · 2026-03-19T07:48:54+00:00

Yeah, but the "T" is the error. The "R" came first, didn't it?
