To make kids look stupid in front of their peers by taking an authority figure at their word you just have to be willing to burn credibility.

language definitely isn’t something that is acceptable in movies today

This thread played out like one of those meetings about women’s issues where they only have male speakers.

I’ll try to add a little to the conversation, though. The article talks about how the online spaces were all deep dark corners of the internet. At least part of that is because places like reddit got rid of those subreddits.

They were prophecies (two Byron Allen links and one Frank Stallone youtube link):

Who defines the untrusted applications though?

If GNOME wrote it then they probably trust it. If you’re using GNOME, then you’ve accepted their security model on some level.

At least you know to go look for it. Attackers will only get more sophisticated:

according to their stated security model, untrusted applications must not be allowed to communicate with the secret service.

That won’t be a popular stance to take when someone eventually steals a bunch of cached, unlocked credentials off of D-BUS because of an oversight somewhere in the npm/aur/pip/cargo/whatever ecosystem.

More rabbit hole:

Hm. Had been thinking of it in terms of controlling the local file system.

Thanks.

What happens if there’s an extra 4GB of stuff laying around?

Try the c++23 standard. There’s been a lot of cross pollination. Contrived example follows:

#include <format>
#include <numbers>
#include <print>
#include <string>

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
    double pi = std::numbers::pi;
    std::string fstr = std::format("{}, {:>.2}, {:>.5}, {:>.10}", pi, pi, pi, pi);
    std::string h = "Hello";
    std::string w  = "World";
    std::println("{}, {}!", h, w);
    std::print("This won't have a {},", "newline");
    std::println(" but this will add it."); // Add a newline.

    // Can't put a non-constant string as the first argument to
    // print or println so they can be checked at compile time.
    std::println("{}", fstr);
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
