Jean rejected huge amounts of funding to make vlc closed source and commercialized. Like literally life changing money.
Instead he chose to continue to support the FOSS community, with vlc being the only easy way for a lot of people to use certain codecs and formats.
Yeah not every implementation of vlc is perfect. For example I struggle with vlc in opensuse constantly (more of a repo issue tbh). But nonetheless its better than using some shit-party media player on a lot of devices and formats.
A perspective from someone who red teams for a living:
If I encounter a password like that, I'm probably going to pay special attention to your account among the millions.
Commas dont stop most people from being weak to password permutations either.
Second this.
Unless you're sawing the barrel to a third, it doesn't actually work how youd think if you never used a real shotgun.
In reality the best things about shotguns in self defence are that if you miss, you probably dont kill your neighbor. The bad part is there is very little penetration on pellets for any armored target.
You could also just use slugs which do work great for self defense, but can easily kill your neighbor.
As a cyber professional, minor in something you actually care about.
Cyber is ruthless right now and its only going to get worse. Wouldn't hurt to have a backup interest with some credibility.
Learn something that you can implement in tech. Biology isnt a bad pick.
Tell that to the 'super S' guy.
