Magento is ridiculously complex, open-source, and often self-maintained. It's probably fairly easy to exploit, especially for outdated deployments. And (vs. Wordpress) has payment info to intercept.

The norforge report sounds like they were targeting magento (e-commerce) sites to steal some $. Darn, was hoping they were trying to swipe DRM keys or something.

My cynical take: these cute little things still end up in landfills, and my 5+ year old phone runs the kindle app just fine.

That's the architecture my B2B SaaS uses, except Vue instead of React. We deploy the SPA to a CDN and it feels snappy. Some clients access the API directly via OAuth. django-allauth is the other critical piece. Works great altogether.

Hmm, not sure what you mean. The consumer cards from AMD and Nvidia are still gaming-first, and games utilize new features like ray-tracing and DSS. Speaking as a lifelong PC gamer and current Twitch addict, the industry still seems very healthy.

Agree with these points, but at 1.5 I'd insert: intimate knowledge of the maps. "Holding angles" is such a profound advantage, and requires knowing the maps inside-and-out.

Oh man, what a fun era of tech. I had a REX 6000 that I adored.

Super interesting to read everyone's opinions about C&P. I too was force-fed lots of classics in school, and practically always resorted to CliffsNotes. For whatever reason, C&P struck such a chord with me, I "couldn't put it down", won a scholarship writing about it, and got to skip a bunch of Lit classes in college :)

Check out Firefox if you need a cross-platform browser that syncs passwords, etc. I use Windows, macOS, Linux, and iOS, and I've found Firefox to be my best option.

I feel ya. My RPi does indeed have a case, with a fan. The backups are offloaded to an external HDD.
