Sounds like you just need to practice. Maybe find a friend who can video call you a few times a week just to chat until you're feeling confident?

Good for him.

I'm pretty sure some people use them for backups.

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 days ago

Okay, so it's just like Yubikey-type stuff? I've thought about that before but it seems very risky - they recommend you get two and set both of them up so you have a backup, but that would require all websites to support that, right?

I'm down for using BitWarden, though, if I can substitute it for physical keys.

I haven't started using passkeys yet because I haven't looked into them. Sell me on them?

[-] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

That.. seems.. bad.. but what do I know

Not to mention, isn't there an incumbent bias in voting?

Looks like it's mostly for live TV? I haven't had cable in a long time, don't really need to record things.

Hey, it doesn't look obfuscated to me?

[-] [email protected] 39 points 5 days ago

Really?

Recurring incidents like these raise the question, how does one strike a balance?

Relentlessly reporting theoretical vulnerabilities can leave open-source developers, many of who are volunteers, exhausted from triaging noise.

On the flip side, would it be ethical if security practitioners, including novices, sat on what they thought was a security flaw—so as not to inconvenience the project maintainers?

This was already answered in the article: verify your security findings. Make a POC that actually exploits the vulnerability, then submit it with your report.

This happens if I use set_time or set_position. Is this typical, or am I just not doing it right?

This is on a Pi Zero 2 W, so not the most powerful, but should be able to handle this.

These are the relevant bits of how I'm setting up the player:

    self._vlc = vlc.Instance()
    self._player = self._vlc.media_player_new()
    self._list_player = self._vlc.media_list_player_new()
    self._list_player.set_media_player(self._player)

    playlist = self._vlc.media_list_new()
    for index in self._play_order:
      playlist.add_media(self._vlc.media_new_path(self._songs[index]))

    self._list_player.stop()
    self._list_player.set_media_list(playlist)
    self._list_player.play()

And trying to seek is just this:

    self._player.set_time(_s_to_ms(seconds))

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!

Bent RAM Clip (infosec.pub)
submitted 2 weeks ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

I've somehow managed to bend a RAM clip so it can't clip anymore because it's blocking itself. I haven't been able to bend it back. Any suggestions?

I have a Keybow MINI hooked up to a Raspberry Pi Zero W, and I'm using Python to respond to events. I have one button that kicks off playing a song on a passive buzzer, and I'm wondering if there's a way to have a button press stop the song before it completes.

Do anyone else's wrist hairs get caught in the little gap between the frame and the trackpad/spacers?

Keybow OS (infosec.pub)
submitted 2 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Does anyone know if it's possible to have events from the Keybow keyboard cause effects on the Pi Zero W running the keyboard instead of outputting to another machine? Or do I need to go with a different OS and figure out the handling of the keys myself?

Anyone have a list of changes that they've made to increase battery life? I've got about three hours (with 80% limit in BIOS, which I might get rid of), so I'm sure there's a lot that can be changed.

I just hibernated my laptop and then brought it back up, and it went straight into LMDE without asking me for a password on a lock screen. That seems.. like weird behavior. Is there something I can set to fix that?

Anyone been able to set up a fingerprint reader in LMDE 6 with Cinnamon? I can use fprintd-enroll and fprintd-verify successfully, but it doesn't show up in pam-auth-update so I don't know how to add it to the login screen or the terminal.

I know the drivers come in the distro package manager, but, is there a set straight from AMD? Trying to use Brave causes freezes and black screen flashes, which I'm pretty sure is a driver thing.

Is there any way to complete the Outpost Control job? It's that only (non-First Order) job I haven't completed, and I'm not sure how to. I thought maybe I'd need to install and retrieve the skimmer, but I did that today and it didn't progress the job chat.

Edit: I've tried installing defenses on every panel, but that also didn't work. Next time I'm on planet, I'll try installing the skimmer and leaving it long enough to gather some credits.

Edit2: Okay, I think maybe it doesn't actually complete until one faction gains control of the outpost for the day, and not enough people play for that to happen. Damn.
