Either you innovate or you pay that company $32M every summer forever
So privacy first first and privacy last second, interesting combo

Sir, this is the US
Will Google really manage to make it impossible to root your phone?
Google has managed this years ago, but it’s optional. There was a fairly short timeframe when most phone makers enforced it, but now most allow power users to disable the security and root their phones. But usually they will disable some security-sensitive features like Samsung Knox. And many security-sensitive apps like banking apps will not let you run them anymore (if yours does, great for you, but that also means your bank’s security is shit, just FYI).
6 GHz is around 50mm iirc
Yes, a faraday cage does work. But note that modern wifi uses high frequencies, which means fairly small waves (edit: of about 5cm). That means your faraday cage needs a meshing of maximum ~2cm 1.25cm. The tighter the less signals it will let through.
Essentially, any mesh storage box should do the trick.
Products of Chinese companies aren’t really a good alternative for different reasons
KHTML/WebKit/Blink has always been built with the intention of many browsers (or anything else that needs a rendering engine) integrating it, thus it’s very easy to do so.
Gecko hasn’t been built with the intention of being integrated into any browser at all. Gecko isn’t integrated into FF either. You integrate the browser into Gecko, not the other way around. It’s closer to building a browser in Electron than to building a browser with the Blink engine.
Must be really hard to resist the urge to sue Musk over this branding, force him to cease using it, and then directly rebrand Threads as X. Just to rub it in.
Or maybe better, create a new payment platform that is tightly coupled to their social media platforms and call that X.
I think some of us also had hopes that the new CEO would put a leash on Musk and steer Twitter into calmer waters again, but this was just proof that Musk is still doing wtf he wants and the CEO is just there for show. So people have now abandoned their last bit of hope and therefore abandoned T…I mean X as well.
While I haven’t been an active user in a longer time, I’ve still been a very active lurker until Musk took over. By now, I’ve only checked Twitter every now and then when bored, to see what happened (as I mostly used Twitter as some kind of news feeds for stuff I couldn’t easily follow in any other way). But today I started migrating off completely - going through my follow list one by one and finding ways to follow those things (like local police, local town, local zoo, etc.) in other ways.
For some that means slower news, or only the most important news - which kinda sucks, as e.g. local police info were good to have in real time during major events or when there was some protest going on. For some this even means mailing lists, ugh.
And a few I couldn’t replace at all, so I’ll miss out on those news. Sucks, but hopefully those people/entities will provide their news feed through some better means sometime now.
Xikes*
Either you’re wearing it (way) too tight or it’s cheap garbage. Going through two wristbands per year is not normal.
wtf do you do to those wristbands?
You’re paranoid, mate
Matrix is the federated alternative to XMPP and IRC first and foremost, imho
Reddit Premium gave me 700 per month while also enabling premium users to use a bunch of fancy awards for cheap. So I never used most of the monthly coins and they accumulated over time.
Yea, my 29.1k coins aren’t happy about this change
How the fuck was Uber supposed to help traffic? That’s the most American take on solving traffic issues I’ve read in a while.
