with zero impact on using the computer.
Well, yeah, copying at fractions of the available IO bandwidth would do that.
I would suspect that if Windows Update operated like that you would never notice the impact.
you would also never get any more updates because they would never finish extracting, but I think to some that wouldn't be a bad thing...

Maybe it's using stronger encryption than your toaster oven was designed for?
I'm not sure what you mean by that. MacOS is using whatever encryption macOS was designed for, transparent to the drive.
Random thought: or is it opaque? I always feel like these two antonyms are used basically synonymously in such contexts.

Dear Nitter team, and everyone else who voluntarily enables HSTS on their websites:

@Gustav I thought the current wisdom was that actually we shouldn’t be using HSTS any more anyway?

Why?
Is this one of these "don't ask if you don't want to know the answer" situations?

Is this one of these "don't ask if you don't want to know the answer" situations?Well, the above is a classic example. The HSTS timeout is entirely unrelated to the certificate lifespan.
But it also relies a little bit on that you’ve had to make a successful HTTPS connection at least once to get the header. There is still a murky ground around hitting with http not https.
Would be better to simply not serve on HTTP if possible, or do what .dev does and only permit secure connections for the domain.
Or have some way to register the site somewhere to say “I only want to support HTTPS” that isn’t time based, so you don’t get rolling overlaps with HSTS windows and instead just deal with the certificate as is.
-
Official Guidance is to still use HSTS. If the site becomes broken, anything that makes TLS work again will fix it for everyone. You can use the HSTS preload list to close the first-visit gap; any domain with a sufficiently far in the future HSTS header is eligible, and browsers will pick up on it within six weeks.
You may be confusing it with HPKP, which is severely deprecated. It said "I will only use certificates with these public keys: ..." It never had a for-the-general-public preload list (only Chrome had one, and only for Google-owned properties) and could brick your site to certain visitors for years, since you might not be able to get a renewed cert with any of those keys.

In my case, Cox don't want you running servers so they block port 80 outright unless I want to pay 🤑🤑🤑🤑 for a shitter connection and the privilege to call myself a business.

They are transparent if you do not look too far, and otherwise fully opaque.

Yikes! That's the sort of thing that security propellerheads claim to want, but it's completely unworkable in reality; it's vastly important to allow updating of production certificates.

The quality of the connection in and of itself technically needs very little to be usable, perhaps 120kbps would be sufficient were it not for those darned images (once stuff gets into cache).

I don't know what changed underneath me or why, but suddenly the fucking source map shit is completely broken and missing, so now instead of my code I get shit like this:
import mod from "-!../../../node_modules/babel-loader/lib/index.js??clonedRuleSet-40.use[0]!../../../node_modules/@vue/vue-loader-v15/lib/index.js??vue-loader-options!./badge_stats.vue?vue&type=script&lang=js&"; export default mod; export * from "-!../../../node_modules/babel-loader/lib/index.js??clonedRuleSet-40.use[0]!../../../node_modules/@vue/vue-loader-v15/lib/index.js??vue-loader-options!./badge_stats.vue?vue&type=script&lang=js&"
Yeah, so useful.
Stupid web shit, either give me my code as is or give me a "compiled" version, but don't do this shit and hide it from me entirely!

@Zecc Addendum: You're welcome. :)
FWIW, this machine was my HTPC once upon a time, running xbmc on Windows XP and outputting component video to a rear projection widescreen TV.
I don't remember all the upgrades over the years, but I put an SSD in it which must have gotten me to go to Windows 7. I probably would have been better off keeping it there, but I apparently let it move up to 10.
Now it's my old media computer: 3.5“ floppy, DVD burner drive, and a card reader with spots for most of the old card types.

STATUS I'm waiting around for the outsourced crowd to send me a config file that I know is broken but not allowed to fix until they send it to me so I decided to start shit with our resident PHP pragmatist to pass the time. He was very reasonable.

For some reason my laptop on Linux will always (attempt to) sleep when the lid is closed, and there's no obvious way to change that.
I suppose I need an App for that.
In Windows I simply go to the
Settings AppControl Panel and tell it do Do Nothing if I close the lid.
-
@Tsaukpaetra said in The Official Status Thread:

Same. And waking it up requires a hard boot. (Happens on both the ubuntu 18 and 22.) I've given up - lid stays open, or machine is turned off.
-
Even if you can configure your laptop to stay awake, you should be careful. Some laptops tend to overheat when running with the lid closed for extended periods of time.
-
@Tsaukpaetra My work laptop (with Linux Mint) can happily switch to external peripherals and disable laptop monitor with lid closed, even power saving works so if it goes to sleep I can just poke the external keyboard to wake it up. It does however need to be awake (lid open) when connecting the external stuff or it wont work (or just open/close the lid so it discovers the externals). My MacBook is pretty much the same.
Disabling the “sleep when lid closed” in Windows is however not a satisfactory solution, as then it wont automatically do that when “undocked” either. Or turn off the built-in monitor with lid closed. So, yeah, Windows is as per usual doing it all ways of dumb.
