ImHex: A Hex Editor for Reverse Engineers, Programmers and people who value their retinas when working at 3 AM

Is it just me being old-fashioned? Or is this a common opinion these days?

So I was listening to an episode of Open Source Security Podcast. This is not a bad podcast, but sometimes I'm wondering what they are thinking.

So despite the name of the show, they went on and on about how terrible Linux is, and how Windows has caught up, etc, etc.

In another episode they were talking about how security issues are solved by rewriting things in Rust (I'm pretty sure the hosts are not programmers).

I'm confused. These people are supposed to be professionals but I hear far too much regurgitated nonsense.

I haven't been to east coast in a while. I passed by because I had to go to a bike shop here.

Just look at the number of cargo ships.

The Democratic Republic of Congo is widely considered to be the richest country in the world regarding natural resources; its untapped deposits of raw minerals are estimated to be worth in excess of U.S. $24 trillion.

If there is peaceful Congo, Kagame will not be able to smuggle minerals to Hongkong, other multinational companies will not be able to mine minerals illegally which is cheap way because of children labours. Rwanda, Uganda, Kenya, China are directly contributing to insecurities in Eastern Congo.
