I always shoved my own live system into the school computers and booted off of it.

X201 is pretty small, I've never had a problem of it not fitting somewhere. Otherwise completely accurate.

Hehe, actually, my main jacket does have pockets big enough to barely fit my X201s. Practical clothes are a thing!

Hyperthreading is insecure?

[–] recursivethinking@lemmy.world 29 points 3 days ago

So remember that it's one core (physical) acting as if it was 2 (virtual). Each of these vCores could be assigned to separate workloads on a server. But because it's ultimately one core, threadA could possibly access data in threadB. If A was a different entity than B, then entity A could access entity B's data.

It's more that CPU architecture is insecure in general.

But so is literally everything when you go down the deep dark rabbit hole of all the tech we use. Meltdown, Spectre, rowhammer, VMScape. The one where they can figure out your password from the sound of your keyboard while you're on a zoom call.

I'd love to live on a boat

nine (and fish) are characters in the lore of the webcomic. https://analognowhere.com/wiki/nine/ https://analognowhere.com/wiki/fish/

To me this is the most interesting thing about this since we only ever see nine as a child or as a deciple of rabbit, i didntu read it all but i never saw nine in relation to fish, as far as i know they are on seperate ways and nine is not a character that would be a legend to anyone to put on a poster, fish maybe as they are a very senior techno mancer and the teacher of girl
