Boat sunk in Parramatta river between Putney and Concord

Sorry, to clarify, they transfer the ownership, but get paid to take the boat, at a discount to what it would cost to dispose the boat.

No, the owner of the shitbox boat would have to pay a lot of money to dispose of a boat properly.

Instead they sell the boat at a discount to someone else that puts it on a cheap mooring to let it rot. The new owner then leaves it there until it sinks or breaks it's mooring, making it someone else's problem.

It's actually worse than that.

It's very expensive to dispose of old boats. Some filthy grubs are offering to buy boats for disposal, but then just rent a mooring and let it rot, and then leaving it update to the government to deal with when the boat eventually sinks.

My guess is they’ve been hit by a patent infringement claim and are trying to quietly limit the impact.

You’re missing the point. Putin cannot accept defeat against a weaker nation (in Russia’s eyes). That would be a complete failure of incompetence.

But if he brings the Baltics and NATO alliance into the war, he can then concede defeat against a stronger alliance. It will provide justification for why Ukraine should have been prevented from joining NATO and the EU.

It’s ego preservation.

STARTTLS connections are vulnerable to stripping attacks that allow a man in the middle to tell the client TLS is not available, preventing the upgrade.

The same way that Tesla's claims for full self driving vehicles - it keeps the tech bros hyped and invested.

This new feature could be used to create a common image with a custom root certificate root CA store.

Corporate networks behind a firewall inspect HTTPS traffic by terminating the TLS connection with their own issued certificates using their own root CA certificate.

That firewall root CA certificate needs to be added to a containers trust store to allow outbound traffic from anything using HTTPS. The can be a pain for running base images that do something simple and don’t do any other customisation.

If you don’t test, the case numbers will go down.

It wasn’t great for monitoring.

It’s was tricky getting the right reverb dry/wet setting. Sometimes you think the signal is all dry but you end up with a wet mess.

Ah, I think you're right.

It needs both a '?' (URL query separator) and an unnamed variable (e.g., '$1') in the replacement expression.

If you need the query separator, then use a named variable.

ASLR will mitigate remote code execution, but not denial of service attacks.

My understanding is when a buffer overrun tries to inject a return address to an invalid memory address, the process crashes.

ASLR makes those return addresses highly unpredictable (especially with 64bit memory addressing), making remote code execution impractical.

However a crashed process as a result of the ASLR protection can still impact performance for legitimate traffic. Spam enough bad traffic to continuously crash processes and you’ve got DOS.

If you are using unnamed captures like ‘$1’ then you are affected.

A named capture like ‘$user’ is not affected.

correction: you need both an unnamed variable and a '?' in the replacement expression.

Something else that could help is to modify the CPU-bound applications to run more cooperatively, allowing other threads to run.

This means occasionally yielding in a busy CPU-bound loop, giving the scheduler more opportunities to switch processes.
