Looks like Debian and some other distros are still on the vulnerable 3.5.4. Why did Openssl publish before the distros rolled to the fixed version?

Reminds me of “Chargie”, a gadget that goes inline with your USB charging cable and controlled by an app on the device to limit the charge level to whatever you choose. I think it was born via kickstarter.

The lowest I found is two clip-on CAT5e cable termination jacks for $0.80 + 0.08 tax. Available in a rainbow of colors and shipped free to Seattle by Sunday if you order in the next 10 hours. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08T63ST97

Or 3.5oz filet mignon flavor dog food for $0.84+tax with FREE two day delivery. https://www.amazon.com//dp/B07VBFLCKT

Beat that!

That was a smart move but those days are over. Your existing 15 year certs will continue to be accepted until they expire but then you'll have to get a new cert and be in the same 45-day-churn boat the rest of us are.

The other CAs with a free tier that I'm aware of (zerossl, ssl.com, actalis, google trust, cloudflare) require you to have an account (which means you're at their mercy), and most of them limit the number of free certs you can get to a very small number and don't offer free wildcard certs at all.

There really is no alternative to LE.

Cloudflare refuses to accept most locality based domains as delegated because they aren’t listed in the Public Suffix List[1]. So for example you can’t use Cloudflare DNS or get a TLS cert for it from them.

Fortunately they seem to be one of the few (only?) providers who does that. So use another DNS provider and Letsencrypt and you’re good to go.

(2009) And this is about CRT monitors. Is there something like this for the LCD monitors we all use today?

I gave the iOS app a spin. 1. It requires at least 2 characters to search for a symbol. What about Verizon (V) or AT&T (T)? 2. I entered a holding for a fund that doesn’t have public quotes by choosing not to look up the symbol and entering the price and purchase date, but then I couldn’t find a way to manually add price quotes for later dates to reflect the change in value.

For NAT (Network Address Translation) or any other packet header modifications, you need to recalculate checksums manually

Why doesn’t checksum offload in the NIC take care of that?

No. The US kicked NATO member Türkiye out of the F-35 program and denied them F-16 upgrades for a long time[1]. And the EU has denied Türkiye membership supposedly because they're not fully part of Europe (among other issues) while courting Georgia which is farther east. Türkiye is treated as a frenemy by the west. Good on them for making their own way.

Refusing connections from VPNs is a baby step in the wrong direction.

Is there an effective anti-IR coating for eyeglasses like there is for UV? Seems like a good thing to have but a web search doesn't turn up much. It might interfere with facial recognition, but maybe that's a feature.
