@sheogorath There's no Norwegian, which is a Schengen country, but there's Russian and Persian. What?

Did you know that, before being able to swap out the optical apparatus of the Hubble telescope, a temporary fix was applied using the Fourier Transform by means of modelling the image transformation on Earth, and just reversing it?
Computer Science is fascinating indeed.

@disroot Force e-mail to use TLS 1.2 for all clients using IMAP and authenticated SMTP, but allow weak ciphers and even plaintext on submission (port 25). Weak encryption is better than none and there are old, unmaintained mail servers.

@amolith@masto.nixnet.xyz I have been, for the last 6 years, consistently saying that Computer Scientists / Engineers do NOT know how to code. And I have usually been met with extremely angry responses from undergrads who would then proceed to write the most hedious code as a counter-example to my claim. Funny :P
@null0x0 of course, any time!
@null0x0 it's pretty good. Slightly obsolete OVH hardware with no technical support beyond the bare minimum and excellent pricing.

I blog about CTFs and system administration. Sometimes a bit of reverse engineering as well.
