How do I read this site with uBlock? Graylisting all requests/scripts only gave me a header and a footer.

Modern browsers... except Google Chrome, which has at least 40% market share.

Google Chrome does not support applets in any way since the deprecation of NPAPI.

I accidentally had appletviewer.exe it from the JDK, however the applet is served over http. I do appreciate this because I'd accidentally turned off HTTPS Everywhere and hadn't noticed (in weeks I suppose).

I think I'm not the target audience, I hope OP finds some good physicists to show this to :)

Sorry, but I'm not running your Java applet.

Perhaps you could port your game to something like Processing.js? It allows for very Java-like syntax, compiles to html5/js and is good with graphics.

I don't see it?

I'm probably using the most aggressive blocking setup possible, though: I have a bunch of filter lists, I don't ever make exceptions to them, and instead deny all scripts and 3rd party resources, then graylist by hand (using the matrix).

No?

The link you posted is indeed a MITM proxy for SSL, but it will generate certificate errors, as my grandparent said. Users will know the MITM attack is going on (unless the website doesn't use HSTS and the attacker has stolen/bought a signing key from a CA registered in your device's trust store).

Oh, thanks, it worked now!

I'm proposing we write a simple canary spec, for canaries that are both human and machine readable. A format could be, for instance:

* canary.txt in the root of the site.

* Optional text introduction, describing the canary's purpose, the way rsync.com does.

* PGP signed message with expiration date; content optional.

* Replaced by either a 404 or a 451, the 451 for those who want to be more explicit and like to live dangerously.

You probably shouldn't state you're compliant with the spec if you implement it.

.

I'm personally very willing to run a replacement canary watch, I'll see what I can set up over the weekend. I'm thinking of writing it in PHP, so it's easy to copy for others.

I'm thinking it'd be nice to couple it with a spider that automatically indexes these canaries, and to also have captcha'd "add your own" option.

Could anyone point me to a guide to setting up a HN-proof PHP server?

It didn't work for me at all; the red dot never appeared on my screen, though the face-outline in the preview image did fit my face quite well (when it wasn't detecting my chin as my mouth).

I haven't yet, but mine is underway.

The model I got has 8gb ram, 240gb SSD, 1tb HDD, Core2Duo processor, and is upgradeable to a Core2Quad.

However, I'm strongly considering just keeping it as a backup. To me it represents the best possible backup computer, durable and auditable.

It's backup for when my current computer breaks down, but also for when new sinister surveillance and encryption laws are passed. Or for when the web turns into even more of a wild-west with hackers and nation-states doing whatever they feel like.

I kinda feel like it was a bad idea to even discuss my ordering of this on a non-throwaway, from an IP vaguely linked to me.

That went kinda dark. Guess I haven't been taking enough Soma.

What if you make your core competence as a programmer "gaining steady footing in new tech", along with basic like code structuring, version control and some automation (CI/testing etc.)?

That way you might not become "the greatest X86 assembly programmer" or whatever niche you like, but you might become a very proficient system integrator, which is useful in its own right.

An atheist doesn't believe in the existence of god(s); a theist is the opposite and believes in the existence of god(s). The difference lies in lack of faith v. faith.

An agnostic believes it's not possible to be sure whether one or more gods exist.

Combinations are possibly; an agnostic theist believes in the existence of gods, but also thinks it's impossible to be sure.

There are also apathetic agnostics; they don't know nor care whether one or more gods exist. This usually seems to go with atheism.

I suppose there should also be a word like nontheists; those who have faith in the non-existence of gods.
