No it can't... all this paper talks about is correlating OPSEC failures which any human can do and not related to the name you use.

They don't even publish their exact methodology, like prompts or other tools "for safety." So their findings are literally just "trust me bro."

He is a massive dickhole that is abusive to every single user he interacts with online.

They actually do. To quote a major FOSS developer, "popularity is not a project goal."

Reminds me of early punk rockers that get upset when their tiny little nobody band that fits in their back pocket, gets too big to fit in their pocket anymore. Some might call it "selling out."

I'm a huge fan of bootstrap and I feel that writing CSS from scratch is much harder.

I wish they didn't switch to requiring a login to search code... seems like a big privacy issue cause you just know they're saving all those searches and associating it with your account.

So blown out of proportion. Nobody is saying to stop using them. The report is more of a state of the union on software in secure systems and the talking points hinge on the most common type of vulnerability seen in large scale attacks: memory safety.

The report (which apparently barely anyone is reading) mentions C/C++ aren’t memory safe (truth) and with specific respect to space flight, alternatives such as Rust haven’t been proven yet. Both languages meet other important criteria (again specific to space flight) but it then immediately states afterwards that until other languages can be qualified, other means of ensuring memory safety are recommended such as hardware. The report makes other mentions. It’s a good read but is not a directive like media is making it.

Tesla is synonymous with climate destruction and if you believe otherwise demonstrates that you have grossly bought into their propaganda.

Usually KVM is used alongside higher level programs like QEMU and/or libvirt/virt-manager, which handle the display side of things. It can be done in many different (configurable) ways, including built-in SPICE/VNC/RDP servers (guest support not needed), or it can just render directly into the application window itself (not as a background service) via SDL/OpenGL/etc., but that means closing the program destroys the VM.

I think the most popular/common option is qemu/kvm via libvirt, using virt-manager to manage the VMs and handle the display, which by default uses SPICE behind the scenes and runs the VM as a background service which virt-manager (or any SPICE client) can connect/disconnect from at will.

The libvirt method is more akin to VMware ESX server, where the VMs are always running in the background, and you attach to them to see the display whenever you want, whereas VMware Workstation/Player/etc. is more like running qemu directly with the SDL/GL display option which does all the emulation and display directly inside the running application window and the two are tightly coupled.

I really don't mean to make this sound like FUD, but what about that blackbox security chip only used in google phones, that they promised to open source but never did? No OS can get around that...

Pretty sure this is just a trans joke.

Some only use a VPN for geoblocks, like to watch the Netflix content of another country... and in that case I think it makes more sense.
