Yeah, X11 forwarding is only fine on a campus wide network, maybe city-wide at most, if the wan is fast enough.

Sshfs would also be painful for operations processing a lot of data (grepping gigs of log files or even creating thumbnails of images to browse).

remote access

To be fair, X11 forwarding is a straightforward thing, bearing in mind any security/performance/administrative restrictions which may apply to your situation.

Alternatively, SSHFS can be used to mount a remote directory locally.

Tip of the iceberg when it comes to examining the corruption of land ownership in Australia. It's hardly talked about. The linked article doesn't even talk about it.

The public as a whole (and traditional owners) should be the only financial beneficiaries of rezoning.

I suspect private maximisation of rezoning profits is the reason behind why urban developments here are almost universally that awful single-story no-greenspace roof-to-roof packed suburban hellscape.

"Current AI models cannot forget data they were trained on, even if the data was later removed from the training data set," Han's report said.

Bullshit. You delete the entire model and start again.

Huh. Even Boeing doesn't want to be associated with Boeing:

Boeing executives have repeatedly sought to make clear that the Starliner program operates independently from the company’s other units — including the commercial aircraft division that has been at the center of scandals for years.

[...] The 92-page document compiled by the legal team lays out a number of specific ways Albanese and other Australian officials have acted as an accessory to genocide, including:

  • Freezing $6 million in funding to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East amid a humanitarian crisis based on unsubstantiated claims by Israel;
  • Providing military aid and approving defenee exports to Israel, which could be used by the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) in the course of the prima facie commission of genocide and crimes against humanity;
  • Ambiguously deploying an Australian military contingent to the region, where its location and exact role have not been disclosed; and
  • Permitting Australians, either explicitly or implicitly, to travel to Israel to join the IDF and take part in its attacks on Gaza.

"The Rome Statute provides four modes of individual criminal responsibility, two of which are accessorial," [attorney] Omeri explained in a statement. [...]

The Australien Government has made an ad about its Whistleblower Protection Laws, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

There used to be a sign "helping" cyclists already on the freeway by telling them "cross here with care":

Even though the company didn’t really do anything truly wrong in this case, as it’s simply users reusing passwords, they still should have been better/more proactive especially with such sensitive information

There's nothing special or new or unique or unforseen about the security requirements of 23andMe.

They absolutely failed to implement an appropriate level of security measures for their service.

Mandatory 2FA could've prevented this.

Panquake have released some source code. Not for Panquake itself, but for a link shortening service. I suppose it's a brand-exposure exercise.

Transcript:

[showerthoughtsofficial]: When medication says "do not operate heavy machinery" they're probably mainly referring to cars, but my mind always goes to forklift.

[sauntervaguelydownward]: It has honestly never occured to me that this warning was about cars and not construction equipment

"Mr Rolles was arrested in late June, when he was pulled off the street in Sydney for allegedly blocking roads and obstructing traffic."

Since late June, Greg Rolles must produce on demand his computer and mobile phone for police inspection, and tell them his passwords.

He is not allowed to use any encrypted messaging apps, like Signal or WhatsApp. He can only have one mobile phone. [...]

These are the strict technology-related bail conditions imposed on some Blockade Australia climate protesters — a development legal experts have criticised as "unusual" and "extreme". [...]

Defence lawyer Mark Davis, who is representing some of the Blockade Australia activists, said the vagueness of the prohibition was concerning.

"It used to name the things you couldn't have, and then they made it all encrypted communication," he said.

"It could be you're on your PlayStation."

He also takes issue with the non-association rules, and the lack of specificity about what an "association" might be. Mr Davis said one of his clients had been pulled in by police after they reacted with a "thumbs up" emoji to Facebook comments [...]
