My main issue with CVEs nowadays is that it seems one gets generated even when 99% of the use cases for the software in question are not vulnerable as the vulnerability requires a very specific configuration/circumstances/etc. to be exploitable. In large projects with lots of dependencies this adds a lot of noice and there's a risk that actual important CVEs go unnoticed.

That or live cd (well, most likely live usb nowadays)

Cool, thanks for the explanation.

a single application that gets bundled with all necessary dependencies including versioning

Does that mean that if I were to install Application A and Application B that both have dependency to package C version 1.2.3 I then would have package C (and all of its possible sub dependencies) twice on my disk? I don't know how much external dependencies applications on Linux usually have but doesn't that have the potential to waste huge amounts of disk space?

Sorry to ask, I'm not really familiar with Linux desktop nowadays: I've seen Flatpak and Flathub talked about a lot lately and it seems to be kinda a controversial topic. Anyone wanna fill me in what's all the noice about? It's some kind of cross-distro "app store" thingy?

I think it would be useful with updates when setting up a new phone or after a factory reset when basically every app needs an update

Telegram has a builtin support for proxies and the authorities probably won't be able to block all of them

Good luck trying to "shut down" a open source software.. Still sucks tho, why Nintendo gotta make so good games but be so shitty of a company otherwise

It's still unclear if he's allowed to use the logo and such. The national broadcaster Yle (which itself has a strict policy against advertising) allowed it in the national show and argued that (quote) "Windows 95 is no longer a protected trademark today. The product is hardly used by anyone anymore. Thus the name and the costume are allowed"

But EBU might have a different stance ofc

I remember reading an article about how we're already able to simulate basic tastes, like sweetness and sourness, digitally. So just you wait, we might have lickable HTML elements in the future

Seems to be a cut-down version from the Direct, so nothing new in this one.

Just gave F-Zero 99 a go. It's surprisingly fun and polished for a "free" game

That was fun! Kinda hit the wall at the youtube link rule. Couldn't find a way to search YT videos by exact length, so you either need to get super lucky and find one randomly or upload such a video yourself. Then you better hope the video URL does not contain any roman numerals... All while keeping Paul fed (but not overfed!)
