Having a language dependent on indentation is absurd on the face of it. It’s a ridiculous idea that should have been ridiculed from the outset.

The malicious code was written and debugged at their convenience and saved as an object module linker file that had been stripped of debugger symbols (this is one of its features that made Fruend suspicious enough to keep digging when he profiled his backdoored ssh looking for that 500ms delay: there were no symbols to attribute the cpu cycles to).
It was then further obfuscated by being chopped up and placed into a pure binary file that was ostensibly included in the tarballs for the xz library build process to use as a test case file during its build process. The file was supposedly an example of a bad compressed file.
This “test” file was placed in the .gitignore seen in the repo so the file’s abscense on github was explained. Being included as a binary test file only in the tarballs means that the malicious code isn’t on github in any form. Its nowhere to be seen until you get the tarball.
The build process then creates some highly obfuscated bash scripts on the fly during compilation that check for the existence of the files (since they won’t be there if you’re building from github). If they’re there, the scripts reassemble the object module, basically replacing the code that you would see in the repo.
Thats a simplified version of why there’s no code to see, and that’s just one aspect of this thing. It’s sneaky.
The Scots wouldn’t agree with this. I’ve spent a lot of time there.
The Shetlands, Orkneys, Harris and the rest of the Hebrides aren’t even mentioned. Haha
I do about half and half. Especially in the morning or in the middle of the night I sit. Don’t have to try to aim in the dark or when I’m half asleep.
I suspect also the men who are married with families tend to sit more than single guys.
I bought mine here but there are other places that restore them.
I actually use caps lock fairly regularly as a embedded systems programmer. With my large hands CTRL-ESC is pretty easy for me.
I’m happy as a clam with my 1984 loud as removed IBM Model M keyboard in Windows.
Think you need a Windows key? CTRL-ESC. I use CTRL-ESC even on modern keyboards.
Let’s see what the earth thinks.
I run a small business, but I’m also I’m an embedded systems developer on ARM processors for my products. Our toolchain is Windows-specific. That and the Adobe suite which I also need for my business keep my primary work machine Windows.
My laptop is Linux but even that creates occasional hassles with my work flow and presentations.
Hey, just so you know, “no one” is two words.
Ads for hominy? Weird.
Which is one reason I am confused by the response to Sync. We left because of third party apps getting screwed over but a segment of Lemmy is saying “Yeah, but only foss apps should migrate to Lemmy because, ‘mah foss sensibilities’.”
Boy, I doubt that.
My Windows 11 machine doesn’t require any of that.
