It would still take significant time, but it's still a vulnerability, especially as technology evolves. You're right that best practices are different for a reset form, but there are some things that are common (like don't do hashes in the front end).
Yep, that's what I meant. Pretty sure my company does this, because they can detect this, and I know enough of our IT to believe they're not storing passwords in plaintext.
Storing in plaintext? That's a paddlin'.
Not salting your hashes? That's a paddlin'.
Sending hashes to the front-end? That's a paddlin'.
I can imagine one legitimate case: when you create a password, they save the hash for the full password as well as the hash for the password without the last character. So if you attempt to change only the last character, they can detect it. They'd need to salt the two separately though.
In theory, they could do the same for every character, but they'd have to save 20+ combinations for that (plus all the salt), so I doubt anyone is doing that.
Agreed. We have our own drama over immigrants, but I don't see Canadians turning away asylum seekers any time soon. My wife and I have already offered "extended visitation" offers to our LGBTQ+ friends in the states.
Not even Donald.
Yeah, the defacto Arch packages are only compiled for v1, but CachyOS has compiled a lot of the core libraries for v3/v4 (including Wine), which is where I think I'm seeing some improvements. I'm sure the performance would be more optimized by compiling myself, but I don't have the time or patience for it right now.
No worries, I'm here for it!
It's a noticeable improvement to me, but probably only marginal to the layperson. I haven't gotten around to more thorough profiling yet (the included btop++ profiler actually caused my games to crash), but I get the impression my PC is utilizing a lot more of its capabilities (based on performance, fan noise, etc), though maybe I'm just confirming my own biases.
I'm guessing you might get similar gains by compiling manually, but the nice thing with CachyOS is that it's already compiled (likely with other optimizations as well, I haven't looked too far into it). I have the technical skills to compile manually, but not the time or energy, so it's a great solution for me.
Maybe this year we post the pride flag upside-down?
Yeah, they were common to Arch. Specifically, Steam would cause the entire system to stutter for a good 30 seconds when starting it up. Found a tip online about it doing something with some extra config files, followed the tip and now it's working fine.
Even using the CachyOS versions of Proton and Wine libraries (which have the same kind of optimizations applied as the rest of the OS) has worked flawlessly, and my games are smoother than they've ever been. Pretty impressed with it overall.
Don't get me wrong, Mint is great for everyone. I was using it primarily for ages, and I've been using Linux for decades as well.
I dunno about that, probably more like 99.98%.
