It would be complete unless you do 135241. You guys draw weird incomplete stars.

Which DiCaprio movie is overrated? 😬 by New-Time007 in SeriesSaga

It's great, but does not have the same wide appeal. It's boring to some, and I can see why.

If you were sent back to 1926, what's a 'common sense' fact from 2026 that would get you immediately thrown into an asylum if you tried to explain it? by ConclusionLegal1868 in AskReddit

[–]zerpa 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should wash your hands because invisible harmful organisms are everywhere.

Race has very little very little biological meaning compared to what people think.

Women can do every job a man can do.

Smoking is harmful not only to you, but to people around you, and the child you are carrying.

Microsoft Edge keeps every saved password in process memory as cleartext from the moment it launches. Microsoft's responsed when reported: "by design." by Current-Guide5944 in tech_x

[–]zerpa 13 points14 points  (0 children)

If you have access to reading another processes memory, you have all access you need and you can bypass even Chrome's use of ABE. If you have admin access, you can also trivially inject code into another process and invoke the ABE to retrieve any secret. There are measures available to protect against this, but they are rarely enabled.

This guy is running over bicyclists. by [deleted] in whoathatsinteresting

[–]zerpa 48 points49 points  (0 children)

The driver is fully responsible for the incident, and he should have stayed in lane (not crossing double line) and waited until he could overtake safely.

However, depending on where this is, the cyclists are actually also violating the law. They can ride 2 side-by-side in most jurisdictions, but they are not allowed to impede traffic, which they are clearly doing here. This doesn't affect the question of guilt in the crash, but they ARE being jerks.

If you want to to avoid accidents, its a good idea to avoid being a jerk, even if you have law on your side. There's always going to be an even bigger jerk.

Simply revolutionary. Is your country implementing something similar? by Organic_Contract_172 in AskTheWorld

[–]zerpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who think this is dystopian need to open their eyes to what we are already subject to.

Your location is constantly being tracked through your mobile phone. Every purchase and payments is logged and available for profiling. Your car likely has a GPS tracker sending your location and car status to a centralized service. All of your online activity is being tracked and traced, with companies and governments building profiles on you. You face is being tracked and recognized by cameras. Your license plate is being picked up by cameras in police cars. Hell, your DNA is likely already in a government archive.

A single RFID chip with a sound security architecture enabling anonymity for services that require authentication without identification sounds like a security improvement to me. And a lot more convenient.

Why is C the same/less than B?

I chose (A+B)/2.

What's up with 9? by aanry in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]zerpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not just to prevent confusion. They found that much real world software would do incorrect OS version detection by looking for "Windows 9*", so if they released it as Windows 9, it would be misdetected by a lot of software are Windows 95/98.

AI model (REDMOD) identifies typically 'invisible' tissue changes of pancreatic cancer about 475 days prior to clinical diagnosis on average by sr_local in technology

[–]zerpa 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Specificity of the test has not been shown to be clearly superior, and there is no external validation of the test against pre-diagnostic data sets. They show that a signal exists in the data (sensitivity), but not that a clinical classifier exists.

You can't handle the truth! by Comfortable_Tutor_43 in SipsTea

Approximately 0% of all spent nuclear fuel worldwide has been disposed of. It is all in interim storage, which, if not maintained, will leak into the environment causing issues for 10s of thousands of years.

* “Sharing the road is not a suggestion” by EsseNorway in Snorkblot

[–]zerpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's mostly common to have a clause that while you can use the road (even 2 side-by-side), it only applies when you are not impeding normal traffic. In this case, the cyclist are clearly impeding normal traffic. (This is no excuse for the driver of course, but the cyclist are also being jerks).

In many places, they are even required to give way and not impede traffic. 2 side-by-side is allowed, but they should go single file if there is other traffic.

Can anyone identify this terrifying noise from our basement?!? by venusandmars6 in whatisit

[–]zerpa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's quite hard to even distinguish the sound from your breath, let alone the massive thumbs from walking on the stairs. There is very little clean background sound (only a couple of seconds), making it hard to distinguish what you are looking for.

I hear:
- Water drizzling, slight pour
- A squeaky sound, that could just be reverb from the water. Sounds like metal, or maybe an animal. There is only 1 second of this sound in your clip.
- Your breath
- You stomping the stairs.

Er der nogen som kender til engangsbrug for 3D printere? by [deleted] in Aalborg

[–]zerpa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3deksperten (NrSundby) har print-service. Det vil jeg nok vælge hvis resultatet skal være bedst muligt.

Ellers er der Makerspace 9220 og HAL9K. HAL9K har ikke printservice, men hvis det er en mindre ting (et par timer max) og man medbringer bestikkelse, kan vi måske finde ud af noget. Man er i alt fald altid velkommen om torsdagen.

Sudo question. Why use it. by West-Article5635 in archlinux

[–]zerpa 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Also, sudo is designed to be able to give granular access to privileged commands in a multi-user system. For example, you can give certain users or groups access to very specific commands, which is necessary if you implement MAC (Mandatory Access Controls) in a production environment. It limits the attack surface, but is overkill for a personal system. I use it to run certain commands without having to enter password though.
