Clarkson is literally doing more to help farming in Britain than anyone else

The unencrypted data should only be in memory when needed (copied to clipboard, shown on screen etc). After use the objects handling sensitive should overwrite themselves.

A string falling out of scope in C++, or an object being left to the garbage collector is still readable and not overwritten by default. It's a very easy problem to solve in C++, either through custom allocators or destructors. But it makes a bigger difference when objects having short lifetimes

Use a better search engine.

Those of you who "can't live without google", need to get a grip.

"Leaked".

All leaks are deliberately orchestrated to fan the hype train.

Amazon music. It has high quality files and not that expensive compared to Tidal or Quobuz. The UI on android is a bit strange, but ok. I hate how everything is a remaster though. I want the original damn it!

Was waiting outside the student union one afternoon. Loads of other students about. Student guy drives past slowly in an old Vauxhall Nova or similar, thinking he's pretty cool. Then the front wheel falls off, and starts rolling down the street. The car slams into the road loudly and the guy gets out and starts chasing after the wheel. Didn't end up looking as cool as he'd hoped.

Attackers need to access the system kernel to exploit the Sinkclose vulnerability, so the system would have to already be compromised. The hack itself is a sophisticated vector that is usually only used by state-sponsored hackers, so most casual users should take that into account.

So it's a vulnerability that requires you to.already have been compromised. Hardly seems like news.

I can understand AMD only patching server chips that by definition will be under greater threat. On the other hand it's probably not worth the bad publicity not to fix more.

I moved from an FX8350 to a R5 5600G a few years ago, having run it for about 9 years. Initially I didn't think I'd notice much difference, but frankly it's an entirely different ballgame.

How is the act of romantically approaching men out by women coming along statistically?

Agreed. The difference between reading 95% and 100% of that comment is massive.

At this point if you use Chrome I think there is something wrong with you.
