This has been a thing for years now. While I am sure it might annoy some pirates, it’s likely aimed at easily executed malware.
I deal with spam filtering on a daily basis and about 90% of it originates from Gmail. Most of that is just fishing/fraud. It would really suck if my users could easily detonate malware attachments, so this Gmail policy is a good thing for me.
Reading the first 3 words of the title as English was disturbing.
Thanks! That worked as expected. Odd. I’ll just point the dev to this and a couple of other threads I have seen this happen. Cheers!
Unrelated question: Is the markdown above broken for anyone else? There are random cases where it’s broken for my client and am trying to to nail down the conditions better for the dev. (I am on Connect)
I almost called out the H-60 exhaust gas preservation and recirculation system, but it actually seems there is a variant that has its exhaust pointed up like that. Weird, but neat.
I can still report posts on communities that I wasn’t explicitly banned from, which is just super weird. A proper ban prevents reports, at least.
TBH, I don’t care about the bans, but the Lemmy behavior is something to take note of for other admins and mods.
It’s also super inefficient. Comrade dipshit missed quite a few communities so it seems he can only ban based on communities I have commented in at one time or another.
You would think that the free speech leader of the world could write a better mechanism to erase dissent.
Lulz. I was instance banned by the head comrade himself, so it fits.
“the gays” in Russia:
I am usually the one to talk very seriously with you about your behavior tonight, but my ears are still ringing from this grenade you tossed over the fence.
Sorry if it sounded like my rant was directed at you as it absolutely wasn’t. Your comment triggered me, because I absolutely fully agreed with yours as well. ;)
setenforce 0 is much cleaner, I have found.
Its just complex
When a security mechanism becomes more complex to manage than what it is supposed to protect, it becomes a vulnerability itself.
If you had a minimal system that you built from the ground up yourself and wanted to only have that system function in very specific ways, SELinux would be perfect. I would go so far as to say it would be nearing perfection in some ways.
Sorry, but in the real world, ain’t nobody got time for that shit. If you use auto configuration tools or pre-canned configs for SELinux on a system you are unfamiliar with, it’s more likely to cause application issues, create security gaps and will likely be shut off by a Jr. admin who really has no fucking clue what he is doing anyway.
It’s just easier to keep your system patched and ensure basic network security practices anyway.
It’s not impossible to manage these days. In the early days it was, but most everything is automagic now. If I am not mistaken, SELinux can be enabled to ‘log only’ which would give you data better handled by a HIPS anyway. (Don’t quote me on that.)
Yes. Sudo, the left one, is quite judgy. Fenn, the one on the right, doesn’t quite know what he is doing besides mimicking his brother.
“I was training my AI on porn.” Problem solved.
Both Buddhism and Taoism have some really good aspects. I would say they are philosophies and not religions and probably not in the context of a “faith” for this post. (If someone else wants to consider Buddhism a religion, you go right ahead. I won’t argue but assume I silently disagree.)
I am absolutely atheist, but still having some guiding principles is still important. If a concept sounds good and seems like it has good intentions I’ll just add it to my collection, discarding any pointless rituals or “magic”.
Doing good things makes me feel good and I like feeling good. I say that it’s ok borrow from any ideology that has well intentioned principles.
I’ll add the disclaimer that the term “good” is subjective and I still had to learn what “good” means to me over the years. Buddhism and Taoism have always been aligned with the way I perceive life and are decent enough to extrapolate what the word “good” should mean.
Am I dual faith? No. If we ever get in a deep discussion about core ideals, there are going to be similar concepts I share with many religions, though.
Ukraine could just ask Russia really nice for them to leave the country. That way, they wouldn’t need to ask for any more weapons. EZPZ.
