2024-12-202024-12-20 Danie

The image shows a dark, cracked earth in the foreground, suggesting a sense of vulnerability or fragility. In the background, there's a dark blue gradient that fills the space, punctuated by a grid of small plus symbols at the top and bottom, adding a technological or digital feel. A central element is a rectangular box with the word "AuthQuake" in a salmon-pink color, indicating a possible security breach. The box is connected by a dotted line to an arrow, implying movement or an ongoing process. The gradient background subtly transitions from dark to slightly lighter, creating depth.

Oasis Security’s research team uncovered a critical vulnerability in Microsoft’s Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) implementation, allowing attackers to bypass it and gain unauthorized access to the user’s account, including Outlook emails, OneDrive files, Teams chats, Azure […]

2024-12-192024-12-19 Danie

The image shows a dimly lit bar scene, with shelves of liquor bottles blurred in the background. In the foreground, a bottle of whisky, a glass of amber liquid, and a laptop displaying a pixelated video game are arranged on a wooden surface. The laptop's screen showcases a scene seemingly from a retro-style role-playing game, vibrant colours adding a touch of fantasy to the otherwise mature environment. The bar's soft lighting creates a warm, inviting ambiance, contrasting with the focus on the digital world displayed on the screen.

GRC’s DNS Benchmark software is getting a new version after 15 years

2024-12-182024-12-18 Danie

The image shows a computer screen displaying the DNS Benchmark software. The foreground is dominated by a detailed graphical representation of DNS server response times, with various IP addresses and their corresponding performance metrics clearly visible. In the background, the software's interface is evident, with tabs for 'Introduction', 'Nameservers', 'Tabular Data', and 'Conclusions' clearly displayed. The software's version number (1.3.6668.0) and copyright date (2010) suggest it may be an older version of the software. The specific selection of DNS servers being tested is indicative of a purposeful activity rather than random testing.

Seems that v1, which is now 15 years old and nearly 10 million downloads, still gets downloaded over 1,000 times daily. But it has needed a fresh for a while now. IPv6 is here as […]

The image shows a global HamClock map, primarily focusing on the Southern Hemisphere. In the foreground, there is a detailed display of propagation data, including colours for different frequency bands. There are also smaller panes showing information for a local location as well as a DX location. Top left is a amateur radio call sign ZS1OSS visible.

This is a highly customisable application that draws in all sorts of technical information that can help radio amateurs. Each pane can be changed to show relevant information. What I really like is the frequency […]

Here’s how you can replace Google Photos with a self-hosted Immich server

2024-12-172024-12-17 Danie

The image shows a computer screen displaying a photo management interface called Immich. In the foreground, the interface shows thumbnails of photos of computer hardware components, including a motherboard and a hard drive. The background reveals a glimpse of a bedroom corner with gaming-related items like figures and books about Blender, a 3D creation suite. The photos' metadata reveals the dates of upload: October 28th, and November 2nd and 5th. This suggests a systematic approach to organization, storing these items in an online library. The background reveals a playful, personalized space with a mix of mature and youthful interests such as gaming and 3D modelling.

Immich is really very good — I did a video about myself a few months ago, which shows what you can expect from it and what it looks like to use. As the article mentions, […]

How to Install Arch Linux: A Beginner’s Practical Guide

2024-12-172024-12-17 Danie

The image is a stylized graphic design, likely promoting Arch Linux. The foreground features a bold, black and white silhouette of a woman with short hair, giving a modern and edgy feel. Her age seems to be in her late twenties or early thirties. She is wearing a t-shirt with 'Arch' subtly visible near the bottom. The background showcases a vibrant blue and grey colour scheme with the text 'Arch Linux Install Made Easy' overlaid, set in a bold and dynamic typeface. The overall aesthetic is reminiscent of street art or graphic novel style.

Installing Arch Linux has always been a little more daunting for newer users. This is partly because it offers a little less wizard guidance, and also partly because you want to be super careful, especially […]

You Can Now Search the Internet With ChatGPT

2024-12-172024-12-17 Danie

The image shows a computer screen displaying a weather forecast for Boston, MA on October 31, 2024, using the ChatGPT 40 interface. The dark mode interface shows the current temperature is 78°F and mostly sunny. In the foreground is a detailed weather report for the next week, including highs and lows, along with weather descriptions. The background shows a standard web browser interface with the URL bar displaying "chatgpt.com". A small, almost unnoticeable, "Share" button is present in the top right corner. There is an alert for a severe weather statement in effect until 8:00 PM EDT. This detail is important as it highlights a safety concern that's not immediately obvious from just looking at the overall sunny forecast. The subtle text and information regarding the 1946 and 1974 temperature records further demonstrate the attention to detail for creating a rich weather history.

ChatGPT search has been out now for about a month and a half, following a Halloween announcement from OpenAI. With this new feature, the company finally rolled out an official competitor to AI search engines […]

Well, maybe they should not have given away how to easily fake a screenshot yourself, but still some useful tips to keep in mind. It helps to know what to zoom in on to look […]

Star Flash is a universal remote control standard because we have too many proprietary remote controls

2024-12-162024-12-16 Danie

The image shows seven different TV remotes scattered on a light beige wooden table. In the foreground, there's a variety of remotes, each with unique designs and button layouts. The background is blurred but shows a consistent wooden surface. Several of the remotes display signs of use, with some buttons appearing more worn than others.

Too often you have a TV or device where the remote has been lost or broken and there is no easy replacement, or you end up having 5 or 6 different remote controls on the […]
