It seems the RSA-155 (512 bit) encryption commonly used in the 90s was broken in 1999, no quantum needed (due to it being based on primes).
Though from what I can search up, reddit users from 10 years ago were confident a 128 bit modern algorithm (e.g. AES) would never be able to be brute forced, even by quantum computers.
I dunno, sometimes I wonder if not everyone on the internet is an expert.
But isn’t the point that we just need to stay ahead of it. Surely encryption used in the 90s could be broken by a quantum computer today?
Haha I have one of these.
Them: how come most trees are green?
Me: Oh, well the leaves have s…
Them: OK goodbye
I also have another one that likes to hear all the details, and as a young kid they would ask me to explain stuff while they fell asleep.
Me: OK, sleeping time
Them: Can you tell me why we don’t two suns while I lie down?
Me: oh, boy, well… [then I talk until they fall asleep]
I think they were about 3 or 4 when we did this.
I get how it’s possible, but this is Google. Surely they have decades of experience at keeping a website up no matter what happens!
But how does this happen? Surely Google has the ability to make highly available systems that are resistant to power going out at one of the three locations (as per the article).
Large scale solar is also taking off.

When you have two jobs you don’t really want a third.
It’s hard to know overall for Lemmy, but I know that both Lemmy.ca and Lemmy.nz have surveyed their members.
https://lemmy.ca/post/15125231 https://lemmy.nz/post/12001861
Both were around 87% men, where as this selfhosting one is like 96% men.
I would guess it’s explained by society. Women are less likely to be in STEM which seems to almost be a prerequisite for Lemmy and possibly self-hosting, and of those women in STEM, and ( despite what you might think about your own house) there is still a societal expectation of them running the household and doing most of the household chores, even when they work full time. A third job, selfhosting, may be too much.
Damn, and I thought the gender ratio on Lemmy was bad.
Exactly. Not the over a million that it looks like at a glance.
The user count isn’t helpful anyway, active users is a much better measure.
That graph is so misleading. Makes it look like almost all the users disappeared but the Y axis only covers a small range at the top.
adjustable distance between lenses and the display
Does this help focus? For the headsets that have this, I thought it was so you could fit your glasses.
I used to have an Index, and moving the lenses didn’t seem to change the focus in the way that glasses do.
Edit: Oh, in your picture, it’s specifically a focus wheel, so must be something different about it.
20 years ago, if someone said ‘u’ for ‘you’ then I assumed they were young. These days if I see someone use ‘u’ for ‘you’ I assume they are 60+.
I think Searx is a good suggestion. Can be a bit slow to return results because it runs the search on a bunch of search engines and compiles the results, but that helps to make sure better stuff rises to the top.
I can see both angles of this. Especially since the original disclosure didn’t have the full detail of how it could be exploited to access company systems, and they (the writeup author) never disclosed that update.
You can see how a large company (Zendesk) could miss this in the multitude of people trying to claim bug bounties. I fully believe that had they understood the issue they should have fixed it, since it’s within their power and basically a service to their clients. But I can understand how the limited detail in the original disclosure demonstrated a much lower level risk than the end exploit that was never reported.
Sorry you’ve been downvoted for trying to start a discussion.
Is this not the swiss cheese thing? No control is perfect, so you layer them. If there is no reason why Zendesk should let this happen, then it shouldn’t happen.
They aren’t trying to actually send from that email, they are trying to create an Apple ID that lets them log in using that email effectively as a username. And Slack will add people to the internal Slack if the email is a company email address.
To open that account, they need to prove to Apple they own the account. They sign up with Apple and say their email address is [email protected], then Apple sends them a code to verify it’s their email.
They can’t actually receive the verification email, because it’s not their email. That’s where the exploit comes in. It’s very important that this email address is the one that forwards emails to Zendesk. The verification email from Apple goes to Zendesk, then they use the exploit to see the history of the zendesk ticket, which includes the verification code.
I hope it’s not coming up soon as I haven’t made much progress!
Hey this is neat! I’m going to give this a go later.
