There is a clear reason - to make them uncomfortable. Nobody forced them to work there, and it is obvious to everyone what kind of future they are building there. If you exchange your soul for a good paycheck, this is just what you get.
The alternative is "Oh, you work at Schutzstaffel? That's cool!". That he has done is morally correct.
It's trivial (if you know what you are doing) to load kernel drivers from userspace by abusing windows bugs.
If you trust a program to run in userspace, then it already has all the keys to the kingdom.
Good that you've managed to read the first sentence. But it would have been better if you've also read the second one where he explicitly said "I created the account just for my Oculus Quest 2 and don't post anything on it".
It's a very compelling story, but that wasn't actually the case. The real reason was the flawed design. People just had to kill everything for the materials because of the way equipment was implemented.
To put it bluntly, because the road constant progress and improvement can potentially unveil the meaning of existence of the universe. Nihilism is naive by definition, just because you don't know the meaning, doesn't mean that there is no meaning at all.
Humans are actually special. We are smarter than any other animal on earth and have culture. Human brain is the most complex structure in the known universe, so even on that scale we are pretty special.
And it simply makes no sense to just throw away millions of years of evolution. Your nihilistic worldview is very naive.
kd-11 was fine, the criticisms is mostly directed at "the main dev" nekotekina. Go through the git history of the last 4~ years. It's not amazing or impressive by any stretch of the imagination.
To be honest, i think $3k per month is already pretty generous, considering the amount of work the lead dev does. I followed the project closely couple of years ago and even back then it obvious for anyone who studied the codebase, that nekotekina lost all enthusiasm about the project a long time ago.
They should consider switching to per-task payment model, so maybe some other talented people can participate, because nowadays devs supported by that patreon page do just enough work to put at least something in the monthly changelog.
>the filter doesn't operate on single frames, but considers several previous frames in order to maintain temporal cohesion and to improve quality.
Do you happen to know how bad are the artifacts? I remember temporal antialiasing produced very good results with static scenes, but fell apart on dynamic ones.
I didn't change my argument. "Just bruteforce the login page" is not a go-to method of the competent attacker. Why? Because it's trivial to stop it.
You want simple concrete example of how to stop all that "unlimited amount of ip addresses with captcha solver service" stuff? No more than 20 attempts per day with ip different from the ip of the last successful login. Here it is, you just solved the "bruteforce problem". That's all you have to do. Other things are just quality of life improvements.
What do you mean by "which dimension"? Login attempts per second. How you do it? Depends, but basic answer is captcha. How do you make sure normal user are not affected? You monitor the login attempts and use the metadata, like ip address of last successful login and valid/expired cookies, to assign the "level of trust" on that particular attempt. The lower the "level of trust" the longer it should take. If you have evidence to suspect that account is under attack (like you see multiple low level of trust attempts with random ips) you limit the rate even more, with something like "no more than 10 low trust attempts per hour". If you allow to bruteforce thousand-entries password dictionaries in the reasonable time frame, it doesn't mean the "bruteforce problem" is not solved, it just means that your system is defective.
There is no lock that cannot be lockpicked. The only difference between a good lock and a bad lock is amount of time it takes to lockpick it.
But if care about security, you might as well solve the problem properly instead of wasting your time implementing "your password must have a capital letter and a number" snake-oil features which only annoy your users.
You're right. I don't know why it's still not a common knowledge that nobody bruteforces the login pages in this day and age. But I guess too many people, who have products to sell, benefit from the status quo, so things are not going to change.
