diff -u original_story edited_story?

The editors' addition of links to the 'original story' is really great, but difficult to ascertain subtle differences. Is there a way to post a 'diff -u' instead?

Just wonderin' out loud.

Guide to Deploying Diffie-Hellman for TLS.

Posted by AnonTechie on Wednesday May 27 2015, @12:55PM (#1249)

Our study finds that the current real-world deployment of Diffie-Hellman is less secure than previously believed. This page explains how to properly deploy Diffie-Hellman on your server.

When I tested https://soylentnews.org/ on their website, I got the following message:

Warning! This site uses a commonly-shared 1024-bit Diffie-Hellman group, and might be in range of being broken by a nation-state. It might be a good idea to generate a unique, 2048-bit group for the site.

I do not know enough about this to make a comment. Maybe, someone more experienced would find this interesting.

Snatching Victory from the Jaws of Defeat

It's been a month and a day since I ordered the parts I needed to build a new computer. Being on something of a budget right now, and with my motherboard selections curtailed by my choice of the mini-ITX form factor, I plumped for a Pentium G3258, 4GB of RAM, a Z87 motherboard, a recycled AMD 7850 graphics card and a 500GB/8GB SSHD storage unit. Nothing special. I totally agree with most folks in the know around the net that an AMD quad core (either an Athlon 780K or an FX 4300) would have been an overall better choice, but there simply wasn't an AMD mITX motherboard that would fit in my budget. Factor in that my games of choice right now are Kerbal Space Program and Minecraft, both heavily single-thread bottlenecked games, the G3258 is no hardship and I should hit 4GHz with the stock HSF if I'm careful and don't push the voltage too ambitiously during overclocking.

Why on earth, after a month and a day, am I only expecting delivery tomorrow? It starts with my bank, Lloyds. While they have fantastic Internet banking services, their security systems are... somewhat lacking. Not that they get compromised or hacked or anything like that, nonono. The automated fraud prevention system they've put in place has a habit of spitting out false positives. My first attempt to place the parts order was brought to a screeching halt when my Visa card stopped working. On calling the bank, I was told it was an "automatic randomly selected security check" (I smell bollocks!) and that I was being put through to the fraud prevention department. After being asked all kinds of questions that don't provide any measure of security ("Can you name another street within a mile of the address your card is registered at?", "When were you born?", "What's your card number?" - steal my wallet, look on Google Maps, you're good) I was told I'd failed the test and I'd need to take photo ID into the bank and do another test. Took a few days to squeeze that around my working hours, but end of the week and the order was in. Yay!

It continues with compatibility issues between the CPU and motherboard. The difference between Z87 and Z97 chipsets is purely one of out-of-the-box support for all Haswell and Haswell-refresh CPUs, plus one or two other irrelevant features. While cruising for suppliers, I found a Z87 motherboard that perfectly suited my plans and was deeply discounted - enough to make up for the small fee leveed by the supplier to update the BIOS before shipping, effectively guaranteeing CPU compatibility for two-thirds the cost of even the cheapest Z97 board. And with 802.11ac wireless too! How long did it take to get around to performing this fairly trivial update task? Two weeks. Yeah, thanks.

The final delay makes all of this completely worth it. I like to make YouTube videos of gameplay highlights and generally funny moments, plus I have plans to do some streaming some time soon. I added an Avermedia LGP C875 - a USB-powered HDMI-passthrough capture box with it's own encoding processor, good for 1080p. As an extra trick, this unit includes an SDXC slot and can cap 720p60 in standalone mode - handy for just recording without a hit on game performance, capturing everything just in case something cool happens that I can't reproduce. Like yesterday when my re-entry vehicle came down and landed quite happily on top of a discarded booster stage that (somehow) survived faling to the ground from first stage separation. I wasn't recording. It'll never happen again. Never mind. So why has this added another week delay to my order? Because of supplier problems. I have no idea what's going on with this thing, but it's now back in stock with no price - just a "Call" note on my regular supplier product page. A quick browse through Amazon shows it's now selling for just over twice what I've already paid for it. Score!

So yeah, I've just had confirmation that it'll all be arriving at work tomorrow. About damn time!

Einstein on happiness of understanding and thinking

Posted by kaszz on Saturday May 23 2015, @11:41AM (#1238)

Albert Einstein wrote a letter in June 1951 that has now been discovered in a safe at a Brazilian school. It was addressed to students at Colégio Anchieta in Porto Alegre in the south of the country. The original is in German, and the translation is: “He who knows the happiness of understanding has gained an infallible friend for life. Thinking is to man what flying is to birds. Don’t follow the example of a chicken when you could be a lark.”

Take home? Find happiness in understanding and thinking, it will reward you. Do what you are good at regardless of detractors and don't follow the slimy flow of complacency.

Any thoughts?

Relationship Hacking: Part 8 - A false start.

In my last entry, I talked about this girl that I had been on a few dates with and how things were going really good. Well, apparently I have some sort of disability when it comes to judging relationships...

I had thought we had a great few dates. We had a few meals together, kissed, and a few cuddles on the couch. However, shortly after our third date, she canceled the 4th date saying she had to work (no big deal). I tried to reschedule but she said that "She had some demons from her past" that she had to deal with. No worries, everyone has shit from their past to work on, so I said I'd give her a couple weeks and then check in and see how things are going.

Ya, so I checked in a couple weeks later. She responds, I reply, then nothing... Silence. I don't get it. I thought we had a connection, but apparently it wasn't mutual.

It honestly really pisses me off that she didn't have the decency to just tell me that she wasn't interested. Instead she had to waste a couple weeks and leave me hanging like a fool.

Ya, so anyways, back to searching again. Honestly, this one hurt. I really liked her, but... Them's the breaks...

My wife and I are dong well. Just had our one year anniversary! (we dated for 12 years prior to getting married). She is still 180% focused on having a baby. She is tracking her fertility cycle and all that. This morning she barges into the bedroom and tells me that 'it's time'. I'm really scared though... We have our shit together. We are solid and a good couple. I guess I'm just scared because of my own selfish reasons. Ideally I'd like to get the whole poly experiment somewhat under control before having a baby. There just isn't enough time in life to do everything in the order you want though...

So tonight, it's baby making time.

Anyways, that's the latest update... Feel free to judge away in the comments below.
