That’s one case study. He lists many more where throwing an epsilon at a floating point problem is the wrong solution.

Your mom is lying to herself.

Why tho?

I’ll try an analogy to explain better. The firewall is a lock on the door to your house. Vlans are a rule that to go from one room to another, you must go back out the locked door and back in.

So an attacker tries to come in and can’t pick the lock. You are safe.

Another attacker can pick the lock and get into a room. But if they can pick the lock for one room, they can pick the same lock again and get into any other rooms because it’s the same lock protecting every room in the house.

Lithium is pretty much the best possible chemical to build batteries out of.

Nickel iron batteries, while heavier and less energy dense have virtually infinite lifespan. As such it is a far better battery for home power walls than lithium.

if you allowed that to happen you either did not set firewall rules strict enough

The argument was that the vlans force a device through the firewall so that the firewall can protect it. But for that to happen, like you said the firewall wasn’t strick enough or didn’t have a defense against a 0 day.

So the vlan doesn’t do anything either way. Either the firewall works in which case you don’t need vlans to force local traffic through them a second time or they don’t work in which case again the vlan did nothing.

He’s a YouTuber who covers 3d printing but the current regime has moved him into Rossman technology legal-rights news.

The title of the article is extraordinary wrong that makes it click bait.

There is no “yes to copilot”

It is only a formalization of what Linux said before: All AI is fine but a human is ultimately responsible.

" AI agents cannot use the legally binding “Signed-off-by” tag, requiring instead a new “Assisted-by” tag for transparency"

The only mention of copilot was this:

“developers using Copilot or ChatGPT can’t genuinely guarantee the provenance of what they are submitting”

This remains a problem that the new guidelines don’t resolve. Because even using AI as a tool and having a human review it still means the code the LLM output could have come from non GPL sources.

To compromise a device on a vlan it had to get through the firewall. If your firewall couldn’t stop it then it can attack any other device by going through the firewall because again the firewall didn’t stop the device from being compromised in the first place.

You can do that at the router. You don’t need vlans to block Mac addresses.

Is this from a particular game by Fromsoft?

haven’t really found any personal need for VLAN segregation

I feel like many setup vlans “because it exists”, not for actual need. The security reason generally doesn’t exist for home labs because most need to setup bridging or you can’t access the devices on the secure vlan at all.

X3d’s are gaming cpus.

Is anyone still buying PC’s or is everyone waiting for RAM to be sane.

Resale certificates are for tax savings, not legality. Anyone could and did sell their games. It’s the law.

"Over a century ago, the U.S. Supreme Court first articulated the “first sale doctrine” in copyright law, under which a copyright owner’s exclusive right to control the ownership or transfer of a lawfully made copy of copyrighted content is exhausted after the owner’s first sale of that copy. In that case, the copyright owner sold books to wholesalers with a printed notice announcing that any retailer who sold the book for less than $1.00 was engaging in copyright infringement. The Supreme Court refused to enforce the restriction against a retail department store, which had purchased the books from a wholesaler, holding that the copyright owner’s exclusive right to control distribution of the book applied only to the first sale of copies of the book to the wholesaler.

Subsequently, Congress codified the first sale doctrine in the Copyright Act. In its current form, §109(a) of the Copyright Act allows the owner of a particular copy of a copyrighted work to sell or otherwise dispose of his copy without the copyright owner’s authorization."

Under many licenses no, you did not

Many means a significant percentage of the total. That makes your statement false. License transfer restrictions were only in the realm of million dollar corporate sales. All physical game floppies and cds were legally resold.

Used game stores legally existed.

Google doesn’t sell anything to advertisers, that would be mega dumb.

Yes you are right, they don’t give direct access to the data. But they are reading the emails and selling your data in aggregate. Advertisers need only jump a few hoops to take Google’s aggregated advertising data and combine it with other data sources to personally identify you.

Google email reads all your mail and sells what it finds to advertisers.

The encrypted zip could work as long as the filenames don’t reveal anything. Google looks in encrypted zips and reads the filenames (which aren’t encrypted).

Steam was by no means the first form of DRM

While there was a game that had online authentication before Steam, Steam popularized it to make it industry standard.

Copy protection is very different than online authentication that restricts your ownership rights.

. If you bought a CD or floppy disks in a store, you were buying a license to use the code on the disks, but you were explicitly denied the rights to resell

Absolutely untrue! You were denied the right to copy the software. If you bought a CD, you absolutely had the right to resell it.

Purposely making code and behind the door deals to exclude any browser development or success for years does, yes.

There was no code to exclude other browsers. Netscape at the time was the monopoly web browser. Netscape failed because Netscape 4 was a disaster. JWZ wrote about it extensively. I personally experienced Netscape’s failure. Netscape 4 had a bug in their dialer that couldn’t handle area codes. When I called to tell them, despite having already paid tens of thousands to Netscape in licensing fees, they wanted $80k to look at the problem. I called my friends who ran other ISP’s to ask them what they were doing because Netscape 4 was broken. They said they weren’t even trying- they were shipping only IE 4 on their CD’s. I wanted my customers to have the choice so I spent the development time to work around Netscape’s bugs and had my tech support field the calls.

Netscape ran themselves off a cliff. The Netscape coders themselves said so. It is utterly ridiculous to claim that MS sabotaged them somehow with “code and deals”.

So is Netflix a monopoly then because it wiped out video rental stores?

As I already said, monopoly is a label given to businesses that have dominant marketshare. It doesn’t matter how it is obtained. Once you own the market, you have restrictions placed on you that smaller companies don’t have to keep the free market working.

Monopoly is again, the manipulation of market forces and regulatory control.

That’s not the definition used by the government. You are declared a monopoly and after that restrictions are placed on your actions.
