    Thanks for the invite but I think it will be gone before I could get there.

    I have not tried it recently but I think the days of running it on a shared server are gone. I pulled it because it would not upgrade for major several versions and the only one I could run was becoming un-supported. It also seemed to be becoming very bloated and the "one answer for everything in the cloud" when all I really wanted was a calendar or three and a safe place to put shared files.

    >shingles

    I have never been able to buy a single shingle, only a group of shingles.

    Cause, Effect or Causality? Are the two things related?

    Microsoft announces new 'Super Duper Secure Mode' for Edge The Record by Recorded Future
    https://therecord.media/microsoft-announces-new-super-duper-secure-mode-for-edge/

    >Microsoft said today it plans to run an experiment in its Edge web browser where it will intentionally disable an important performance and optimization feature in order to enable more advanced security upgrades in what the company is calling Edge Super Duper Secure Mode.
    >
    >Announced today by Johnathan Norman, Microsoft Edge Vulnerability Research Lead, the idea behind the new Super Duper Secure Mode is to disable support for JIT (Just-In-Time) inside V8, the Edge browser’s JavaScript engine.
    >
    >JIT, while unknown to most end-users, plays a crucial role in all of today’s web browsers. JIT works by taking JavaScript and compiling it to machine code ahead of time. If the browser needs the code, it gains a significant speed boost. If it doesn’t, the code is discarded.
    >
    >However, JIT support in V8 is complex. Norman said JIT-related security issues amounted to 45% of all V8 vulnerabilities in 2019. Furthermore, more than half of the “in the wild” Chrome exploits rely on JIT-related bugs.

    Looks like it has been fixed but still a big PII oops.

    >Hi there, sorry, this issue was fixed in 5.17 (which hit 100% production on 7/21). There was another issue tracking this and it looks like I forgot to close this one.
    >
    >For some background, this bug came about as a rare intersection of some database properties and a separate bug. The TL;DR is that if someone had conversation trimming on, it could create a rare situation where a database ID was re-used in a way that could result in this behavior. It was very difficult to track down, with earlier phases involving getting additional logging into builds. Once we had some more information, it did in fact become our top priority, a fix was made, and we got it out as quickly and as safely as possible. The fix itself should make it so that database issues like the one that caused this bug can't happen again.
