here's poettering's explanation of why they didn't just use getrandom: poettering posted:BTW, the reason we use RDRAND in some cases instead of getrandom() [which we use in many others] is that we need to generate uuids early on (since every service we starts gets one passed, the "invocation ID", and for other stuff too), but getrandom complains in dmesg or blocks if we call it before the pool is initialized. Since systemd is one of the earliest programs that runs and thus very likely comes into contact with an uninitialized pool we attempt to avoid that by using RDRAND when generating uuids, since it should be good enough for that, as the usecase needs a "mid-quality" rng source: not crypt quality and not totally guessable either. so is this a case of them being lazy and not doing something to get the pool initialized before calling getrandom?

pseudorandom name posted:ah, yes, the laziness where when the CPU says that it's high-quality random number generator works, you use the CPU's high-quality random number generator for non-cryptographic purposes i was more replying to the tweet that lain embedded that implicitly criticized systemd for not just calling getrandom

Squinky v2.0 posted:there’s one private religious school we deal with (very on the religious side) where it’s an absolute scourge and they are completely powerless to stop the kids from getting into the faculty accounts lol that absolutely owns, and i say that as someone who used to be a school district computer janitor the biggest lol i remember seeing happening back when i was a high school student was when kids figured out using "net send *" to send pop-up messages to every computer on the network, completely freaking out the staff. oh wait did i say "figured out", what i meant was "learned how to do that from the "MCSE" class with its segmented-off LAN, and then went and did it from a school library computer" man those computer courses were wild. they got some CJ to come in and teach the classes, so he had a way more laissez-faire attitude about what kids did in his class than the average teacher. kids would prank each other with netbus constantly, we had frequent LAN games happening. i somehow got on his good side such that he offered to hire me on one summer doing grunt work for the district IT department, and that's how i got my start into being a professional computer janitor

Schadenboner posted:This is a behavioral problem not a technical one. Technical solutions will only ever inspire false confidence and, because they do not address (much less resolve) the underlying behavioral issue, will never improve the situations. i'm responding to your asterisk and scare-quotes emoji, which implied that children potentially overdosing on drugs and/or getting raped is not a problem. that said, if you want to really get into your post, while i wouldn't consider digital surveillance to be a complete solution to a behavior problem, i also wouldn't discount its use as an immediate tool for trying to protect a child from bad actors while also working to address the behavioral issue.

Cocoa Crispies posted:why do those need a not secure random number? i think it's less about needing a specifically non-secure random number and more about being assured that a random number will be delivered regardless of whether it is secure or not, because if i'm understanding correctly there are scenarios in which the current secure random number generator may fail, timeout, or otherwise be unable to deliver a secure random number.

lol you all reminded me of the time when i used to CJ at a school district we got a complaint that some teacher was able to print to the big copier in the library when it was supposed to be restricted only to certain people i looked into it and saw that they weren't on it, and tested, and sure enough the teacher was able to print. why? idk, i'm just a junior-grade cj at the time, i reported my findings to one of the network guys and went on with reviving "dead" printers by turning the power switch on later i asked one of the two network guys "oh hey were you able to figure out why they were able to print?" "oh yeah. you're gonna love this. turns out everyone's been domain admin for some time now." "lol what" if i remember right it wasn't that everyone got added to domain admins, but that everyone got added to some printer-related AD group, and then that group somehow got added to domain admin. or something like that. god it's been so long now.

i don't use my ~*smart tv*~ as my main system's monitor so i don't really think it's a security issue if someone manages to find out that a TV attached to a neighbor's open wi-fi (which, again, that data's going to be associated to the neighbor) has a few generic desktop icons on it and occasionally watches old episodes of the simpsons like, sure, i'd rather that TVs not do that, but i don't see where it's worth worrying about.

and again that's assuming there's an open wi-fi in range, which, last time i checked, there wasn't now i'm wondering how you could gently caress with the TV vendor. what happens if you replay a shitload of those phone-home packets again and again.
