  • It would be six days at max, assuming they managed to steal the certificate immediately after it was issued, otherwise it’s gonna be even less.

    Having the certificate doesn’t automatically mean you can change the site, if you have control of the site hosting you likely wouldn’t need to steal the cert anyway.

    Stealing the certificate would allow you to run a man in the middle type attack but that’s inevitably going to be very limited in scope. The shorter time limit on the cert reduces that scope even further, which is great.

    Since most Let’s Encrypt certs will have an automated renewal process this doesn’t even really change the overhead of setup so I think this move makes a lot of sense.

    There are other things certificates can be used for as well of course but I’m just going off your example.

    Yeah same, I remember initially feeling the Outlook integration was extremely clunky, for example, but there’s a big simplicity to being able to grab a recurring meeting link and then just attach it to any meeting regardless of whether it’s rescheduled or has an unusual pattern.

    Teams is much more annoying in this regard since it pretty much requires calendar integration for the meeting to work. Trying to set up any new meeting regenerates the meeting link, and it’s maddening. Like just let these two things not be connected if I want.

    100% this, I’ve been a few times to pubs etc. where they tell you the kitchen closing time separately from the pub closing time but then when you try to order food before that they say they already took last orders because the kitchen staff finish at that time.

    Like bro, politely I do not care what time your staff finish their shift, it doesn’t affect me. As a customer, I care what time service ends - that’s the time that should be included on the opening hours to the public.









  • I recently tried this for the first time for my grandad on an old dying laptop of his which was struggling to run at any speed.

    During the install it had already messed with the hard drive partitions in order to run the live environment, which is a big no-no for me.

    The whole point of the live environment is it shouldn’t change the system until you try to install!

    It also meant I no longer had a free partition to install to anymore so I couldn’t even get through the installer since I also couldn’t resize etc. because the partition was in use.

    Been using Debian/Ubuntu based Linux for about 20 years and never seen this issue until Pop! OS
