Looks very cool! How hard would it be to add a feature to keep track of your holdings per coin?

Maran | 9 years ago | on: Ask HN: Disappointed by the new Macbook, what alternatives do we have?
Few problems:
CPU is slowing down lately, even switching tabs in Chrome sometimes takes a 1sec to actually render the page.
Disk is getting too small. I use a lot of VMs for work and I never have enough space to run them all.
Laptop is dead, if I replace it I will be without a laptop for weeks according to Apple.
I let it drop once making the fan very noisy, not really a problem just annoying.

I'm running Ubuntu 14.04 which should be affected. I just hoped it would be harder without having the correct kallsyms version. It seems I will have no options except to reboot my cluster :)

As I understand it the whole idea of this exploit is getting sudo access from a normal user.
Exploiting from root to root doesn't make a lot of sense. If the values are not retrievable as normal user this exploit can't be used.. Right?

It is indeed compiled with CONFIG_KEYS=y. Does this protect me against this issue? I'm not sure what this means.

Question for you.
As a normal user, grepping these values I actually get 0000000000000000. I can't imagine these being the actual values. Is it possible that because I remount my /proc with the hidepid=2 option the values are not visible for normal non-root accounts?

Not sure if the poster is also the author but why is the application connecting to a server? Is it using a centralised point to connect to the Bitmessage network?
Edit: It also appears to connect to Tor. Perhaps a quick overview of what's happening under the hood could be useful.

Me and a friend created Snapshare. The design part took up way to much time for us since we are both hardcore coders, we will be bringing a dedicated designer on the team next year. It was loads of fun though and we created a good codebase to build upon.
