  • I thought Jurassic World Dominion was the final one? Wasn't that why they brought back so many of the original cast? And it was pretty terrible, and dragged heavily towards the end.

    Hollywood is addicted to established IPs, find some courage and be inventive again, please.

  • You're forgetting about security updates, which would also be blocked. It's definitely more of a problem if the whole of Mozilla gets blocked than some plugins that have workarounds and alternatives.

  • If Russia blocks security updates, that's worse for Russian users than having to go to GitHub to install a plugin.

  • Nope, I was contrasting SG1 with Star Trek, which has filmed in the Bronson Canyon uncountable times (actually, I'm sure someone has counted).

  • I know how federation works, but look at the network inspector and you'll see you're pulling a lot of images from Cloudflare-proxied sites (or you're missing a lot, if you've blacklisted them).

    Anyway, I only meant that even Lemmy, with its anti-corporate culture, is still heavily using Cloudflare. "Only" 22% is still a lot in my book.

    I'm interested as to your motives - are you doing this as a boycott, and/or to protect your privacy (or similar)? Also, are you blocking domains one-by-one, or are doing something like using firewall rules?

  • % makes sense. I went with space+o for easier typing but it's hardly unambiguous.

  • I'd like to see permissions in VSCode plugins, so e.g. I could see that a plugin x can't touch the filesystem or internet and is therefore more likely to be benign.

  • If you're blocking everything that's proxied via Cloudflare or hosted on Google, the internet must be a very small place for you. I think even a third of Lemmy is behind Cloudflare.

  • I guess my argument would be that you can choose/configure Linux to use many of the Windows conventions, whereas Mac has its own way of doing things that need learning.

  • That works too! I went with my assumption because of the phoenix being between the blue (little blue dot) and black(ness of space).

    The styles you were leaning towards were giving me somewhat fascist vibes, but it also makes sense for a militarised group. I suspect that as a rebel group they'll be more in the grey than straight good or bad, despite being (I assume) the good guys for the audience.

  • I was thinking earlier when it lost the signal but those cameras were amazingly resilient - even when the lens got ruined by the fin smoke we got to see more when it cracked and could see the sparks through the holes.

  • The article uses the word modified, but it sounds like it's just talking about configuring it and using it as normal.

  • Yeah that was odd - at other points the video cut out but the other telemetry was coming through so if the video was running I'd expect everything else to too.

  • The ban comes after Fartz posted footage [on Instagram] in which he sparked up a bong during one of Phish's shows at the venue in April.

    The footage [...] was accompanied by the message, "First bong hit to be ever ripped in the Sphere Las Vegas, somebody called Guinness World Records", in which Fartz tagged the venue.

    So he removed all the venue's plausible deniability, then suffered the consequences. sadtrombone.com

  • Shine UV light on salty wastewater? Definitely sounds pretty straightforward.

  • To fuzz this, I simply used Burp’s intruder to enumerate from %00 to %FF at the end of the URL.

    I like to think about what normal people would think when they read something like this. It sounds like a line from a cyberpunk wizard.

    We had confirmed that we could bypass authorization for the API endpoints by simply replaying the HTTP request multiple times

    Not really replaying, since his initial request worked. Feels like it's going through a load balancer and one from that group of servers didn't have authentication enabled (accidentally included a test/dev server, maybe).

  • what you can infer of the federation based on its symbolism

    Earth went through a bad patch, but has risen again and become a space-faring society. The fact that it's called the Neo-Terran Federation means that either all of those stars are colonies of Earth, or that Earth is the power and that the other stars are lesser members (thralls? conquered?).

    I don't think these are meant to be the good guys, partly based on the phoenix styles you posted in your reply to the flag mock-up. "Federation" otherwise gives me good vibes, probably because of Star Trek's influence.

  • I'm sitting here trying to replicate what that sounds like from your description and I've only succeeding in sounding like a madman.
