That was also my question. A broader question is how to access services on the local network that are announced through local DNS? Like your router’s web interface or any similar device.
Can you have split routing? Most queries go to our preferred DNSoverTLS endpoint, but some go to DNS53 on the local network.
This would also solve the captive portal if the host used to detect captive portals is always resolved locally.
The x permission on directories is exactly for this purpose. You can use the directory. You cannot read (requires rx), you cannot write (w), but you can ‘cd’ and operate on files in the directory.
This is important, you can lock someone out from a directory tree buy not giving them ‘x’ on the root. So, if your home is rwx------, no one but the owner can do anything in your home. This is effective even if some files and subdirectories have less restrictive permissions.
SSL is almost a old as Shakespeare now.
We ignore them, mostly. You cannot miss what you don’t know.
There are plenty of options however to access software not available natively. Both VMs and Remote Desktop solution work for a wide range applications. Web-based solution can be as good as desktop programs.
So many casual applications are now either web-based or on your (not FOSS) phone, so for my personal use the thought of using Windows has never crossed my mind. Professionally, I resort to remote Windows or a Mac.
Interesting.
Now commented on the built-in tracker protection in Firefox? Is it useless.
Personally I bank on uBo.
Someone should clarify if this
Contactless payments use the EMV protocol. Leaking the cc number is bad, but happens all the time. An actual payment athorisation replaces both PIN and signature. The victim’s bank will argue that the victim authorised the transaction at the POS.
I don’t get this argument. Most business don’t own any property. The office buildings are rented.
Thanks. Both go exactly in the direction i was thinking. Both appear to look at network traffic, connections to third-party servers.
DDG is the shit, but it can break some website so i won’t recommend this to the general public.
Don’t worry. I work in a bank. We employ very expensive IT consultants. After the initial PPT that sold the project to our management, all they do is Word documents (“concepts”), mostly copy paste from other documentation. And all the links are file://C:/User/Joe/Temp/MuFiles/…
Yes, same here.
They should have replied:
0 rows changed. OK.
Or:
BOT.EXE: Command not found
just to see if the other guy keeps trying.
All post must be screenshots of OS/2
The only open question is, whether at least one of the popular apps will transition Lemmy. This should doable since the concept is so similar.
The world needs good Fediverse apps. If they include mastodon, we can say good bye to Musk’s twitter as well.
There is a 4 million EURO or billion or otherwise huge fine for noncompliance with gpdr anywhere in the EU. And it can be enforced.
Ignore the fake stick shift, what the hell happened to Toyota? They used to make reliable, economic, no-bullshit cars. They invented (or popularized) the hybrid.
So Toyota missed the EV trend. We’d all be crazy rich now if we had predicted the rise of Tesla, so I guess this one can be forgiven.
I’m not a car-enthusiast. What I want from a car is less controls and distraction. A stick shift is more work for the driver, but logical. It exists for a reason. You can argue that automatic is a better solution for the problem, but when you learned to drive a manual, it works.
Also, 99% of the time, the stick works the same one any model from any manufacturer. It is expected.
I don’t get why people would want such gimmicks. The Toyota fake stick may be extreme and doesn’t fit the brand image at all; but many carmakers tend to treat EVs as toys; not real cars…
Have you looked into how existing software handles captive portals. I believe, both Ubuntu (or Gnome or Network-Manager) and Firefox do check for such portals and detect real internet access. (They simple poll some URL http://detectportal.vendor.com and check for the expected return code. Portals usually redirect.)
Now I’m thinking, what if this check could trigger a change to the DNS configuration. That is use DoT when internet is available, otherwise fall back to DHCP announced DNS
