  • I’m curious if this was going to apply to content on non-Chinese Facebook. Another part of the article referring to hiring a “chief editor” explicitly says that the editor part would apply to the Chinese version only, but at the same time, Facebook removed content posted by a person in New York from Facebook at the request of the Chinese government, so it could go either way.

    If somebody is decrying the state of free speech in their podcast, show or in the campaign trail you can be pretty confident it’s an empty platitude. That said, you probably won’t find many examples of people willing to defend free speech or any civil liberties the moment their freedom is on the line. That’s not Zuck though. He’s just full of it.


  • Played it during and just after the beta. Gun play felt a bit strange and felt like the game was a bit too punishing when you failed a stage; thing second level of Hard Rain on expert type thing. The game does have a cool aesthetic and some cool zombie ideas though and it looks really nice. I think they shot then selves in the foot a bit by comparing it so heavily to L4D instead of just letting people do that thenselves. The game also used Easy Anti-cheat if that’s a dealbreaker for you. But! For $20 AUD or less I’d say it’s worth it as long as you don’t expect to pour hours into it.










  • They don’t need to be interested though. You could conceivably dump all the password you collect in an attack and just start trying them automatically like you would any other breach. Find a bunch of bank accounts and your chances you getting away with millions are high. Not to mention: a breach like this means changing all your saved passwords to re-secure them which is a multi-day affair.



  • I don’t think ZFS can do anything for you if you have bad memory other than help in diagnosing. I’ve had two machines running ZFS where they had memory go bad and every disk in the pool showed data corruption errors for that write and so the data was unrecoverable. Memory was later confirmed to be the problem with a Memtest run.



  • The OOM killer is particularly bad with ZFS since the kernel doesn’t by default (at least on Ubuntu 22.04 and Debian 12 where I use it) see the ZFS as cache and so thinks its out of memory when really ZFS just needs to free up some of its cache, which happens after the OOM killer has already killed my most important VM. So I’m left running swap to avoid the OOM killer going around causing chaos.
