You shouldn’t be doing anything interacting from a server anyways.
Ideally no but in the real world it happens, especially with with Windows Servers.

I don’t want to install “word webview” on a server in order to look at a large log file or peruse some XML.
<facepalm>
Dammit! Why did I mistype that?
Obviously it should be RHPS. Sigh.
If you ever decide you want to see it please for the love of Tim Curry don’t watch it on TV.
The only way to experience the RHPS is at a theater, movie or stage, with a floor show. Without the floor show you will not get what makes RHPS an adored Cult Classic. Seriously, the floor show is what makes (or breaks) the experience.
If you walk into the show and you’re not surrounded by people in costumes spouting weird lines, or if you don’t see them in the aisles within the first 90 seconds of the show starting then you may as well get up and leave.
Edit: Fixed my typo’s as pointed out by @[email protected]
I dunno, with Healthcare the larger the organization the more serious they take it. A small practice may basically ignore it but by the time you get to be the size of UMC, the Hospital named in the article, they’re typically spending many millions of dollars annually on CyberSecurity.
The problem is that they’re stuck playing defense. They have to get it right every time but the attackers only have to get lucky once. They could successfully repel 10,000 attempts Monday through Saturday but then on Sunday they only repel 9,999 'cuz Bored Bob the maintenance guy clicked a new zero-day in their email and now they’re in the news.
WTH? The House can’t pass a budget or deal with any of the other pressing issues but they have time for THIS?
Law Enforcement, remember this article is about a Cop, isn’t “just anyone”. There’s two reasons for people being riled up about this, one of which is criminal and the other is user error / training.
Ignoring the criminal aspect of what he’s doing the Cop literally cannot fire that weapon without endangering himself and his fellow officers. He also can’t fire that weapon a second time without manually manipulating it because he’s using it in a manner that WILL cause it to mechanically malfunction.
It’s fucking stupid (and criminal) all the way around but it has nothing to do with the points you are making.
How the fuck is this legal?
Glock, an Austrian company, uses a variety of common sense safeties that are automatic in nature.
With a manual safety the user has to remember to engage / dis-engage it as appropriate. This means a weapon can be left in an unsecured state simply because the user forgot (or elected not too) engage the manual safety. Conversely if the user forgets to disengage the manual safety the weapon will not fire when they need it too, which makes an awful lot of sense when you know that Glock designed these weapons for Law Enforcement.
To work around the weaknesses of a Manual Safety Glock designed what it calls its “Safe Action System” which you can read about here.. In a nutshell a Glock will not fire unless the trigger is intentionally pulled in the correct way.
Other pistol manufacturers will have some, or all, of those feature and may have other things such as “Grip Safeties” where you have to be holding the pistol both correctly and tightly enough before it can discharge.
There’s quite a variety of automatic safeties in use in the pistol world. If you are interested you can read about them here.
On balance these kinds of automatic safeties are at least as effective as a manual safety and there are valid arguments with empirical evidence showing that they can be safer.
Any of the folks who place more value in their ability to end another person’s life on a split second than the safety of their own children want to chime in and explain this one to me?
Could you explain why you are using such inflammatory language? NO safety can or is meant to make a loaded firearm safe from a child. It’s arguably easier for a child to flip the selector lever on a manual safety than it is for one to grip a firearm a specific way or pull its trigger in a specific way (or both).
Loaded weapons, regardless of their type(s) of safety mechanism, should not be left where they can be handled by children.
“You don’t rise to the occasion, you fall to your level of training.”
The point of the article is clearly the unacceptable behavior of the officer but damn does it make my teeth itch when Journalists fail basic fact checks like Pistol / Revolver. I always wonder what else they got wrong.
Depends on their wealth.
The kid was driving an Audi S4. I suspect they have some spare $$$ available. (assuming they haven’t spent it all on repairs)
Hard to say. The kid was driving an Audi S4 so they likely have money.
This has absolutely nothing to do with “Stand Your Ground”. SYG only applies when you or someone else are in real and imminent danger of serious bodily harm or death, neither of which were true in this case. That’s why the guy was arrested and has been charged with a number of serious offenses. He’s going to end up in prison.
Since you aren’t from the United States I should also tell you that SYG isn’t a National thing, its only legal in the States in that have passed laws allowing it.
I keep wondering if a legal framework like the US where you weren’t legally punished by attacking a thief in your house wouldn’t be fairer but then there’s news like this.
That’s called “Castle Doctrine” and like SYG it isn’t National. It only exists in the States that have passed a law to allow it.
It CAN work but there’s at least a few States that have Castle Doctrine and a Duty to Retreat so you end up having to flee a home invader until or unless you have no other choice.
One was supposedly delayed from CA to OR because of “weather” which is odd as it has been sun and mostly mild temps over the last week.
Not to defend UPS too much but enormous wildfires probably go in as “weather”.
Only 2nd, not 3rd?
2nd best is a turn of phrase, an old one. It’s an insult. You must not be very well read.
Firewire was good for high bandwidth devices like external hard drives and video cameras because it didn’t require the CPU to do any heavy lifting. These days USB is mature enough and CPUs are so fast that we (mostly) don’t notice any performance impact but in the Core 2 Duo days you could easily max out one of your two cores with a large file transfer over USB.
100,000 rides a week. Impressive.
Nah, Starlink doesn’t reset the Wi-Fi SSID for a firmware update.
I’m typing this reply from a machine running KDE Plasma on top of Linux Mint 22.
I’m not sure what precisely what you mean by “inherently” but I’d like to point that “Linux” has security problems all over the place; the kernel has issues, the DEs have issues, the applications have issues. It’s more secure than Windows but that’s not a very high bar.
