Because this is the world we live in now, did anyone check if there’s a poly market or some gambling platform bet of when its getting released? That would 100% explain this behavior if someone could become a millionaire by getting inside info and placing a guarenteed bet.
I feel like travel and food dhows fit this nicely. Very entertaining, bit also very educational about other areas, cultures, histories, foods, traditions, etc.
I haven’t watched too much content like this, but “Anthony Borodin’s Parts Unknown” really got me hooked for a while, he did a great job with that show. And I feel like we need more knowledge and understanding about other cultures, now more than ever.
I usually check ebay when i need electronics batteries, but you have a chance of a seller selling knock off batteries that as you said, could be sketchy. I’ve personally never had an issue, but YMMV.
I do wonder if they’re trolling, because their attitude could apply equally to the person behind them on a flight.
“My comfort shouldn’t be impeded because it might inconvenience the person in front of me.”
PSA for anyone using a laptop during flights, the tray tables do not change angle or height when the person in front of you puts their seat all the way back. I almost had someone break my laptop screen a few years ago because the top of my screen got caught under the exposed edges where my tray table would fold up into, as rhe seat back came angling down towards my tray table. I was quick enough to be able to pull my laptop towards me and remove the screen before the full force was applied to the screen housing.
That was my experience. Also the 2 hour prime stuff when offered was never stuff you needed, its gonna be paper towels or a hat or something competely stupid, not like a car part that if I could get it here in 2 hours would be really fucking helpful so I could finish the project today!
Right wing propaganda is why they think they’re banned. I replaced some bulbs with LEDs a few years ago and someone I knew, their right wing father wanted to keep all my old bulbs, because they were convinced it would be impossible to buy them again so he was just hoarding as many as he could, because the LED ones are designed to fail, and the incandescent style are banned.
I noticed it’s an AI assistant you’re supposed to be problem solving with, that probably will not end well. Hopefully you can actually get a human from their customer support number on their site:

Who knows if this is true because I don’t have the expertise to understand if it is or not, but supposedly the explanation given by the GrapheneOS team is that the pixel phones were the only phones that had the hardware security strong enough to provide the security model GrapheneOS wanted.
What an amazing coincidental birth year, compared to what product he ended up “creating”…
Yeah, the trouble maker part. Or people that are violent, etc. Going to punk music shows with mosh pits, etc…
After not having a great time towards the end of highschool, I ended up spending most of my free time.between classes, in classes, and lunch, etc with the punk kids and the potheads. And they were some of the nicest and coolest fucking kids I’ve ever met. Super glad I had that experience because it definitely broke that propaganda fueled view I had of those two groups, for when i entered adulthood.
What is VB in this context, virtualbox?
I’m confused by this comment, (and the up votes) OpenSnitch is the fully open source application. It even says so in the article.
“If I ever needed to track down which specific application is making suspicious outbound connections, I would turn to OpenSnitch, the fully open-source, community-driven application firewall for Linux. It is not as polished as the new Little Snitch port, but every line of its code is open for inspection and it does not ask for blind trust.”
I just can’t comprehend how much you’ve seen change in 112 years of life, that’s just insane. 1914-2026… Horse and buggies to automobiles, indoor plumbing, commercial flights, invention of television, the space race, personal computers, the internet, cellphones. Entire changes in farming and agriculture, sanitation improvements, just an unbelievable amount of change in society.
It depends on what kind of devices you’re using.
It’s my understanding that SIM cards in phones are just to tie an account and identity to your phone, for purposes of enforcing people to be paying customers for the phone/data services, and tracking your usage based on what level service you’re paying for and what you should receive (5GB of data monthly, unlimited texts, etc)
But if your phone doesn’t have a SIM card in it, its still connecting to cell towers for purposes of emergency dialing, and the phone itself can continue to be tracked by cell carriers based on what physical cell towers its connecting to, as you travel around. The cell phone modem itself can control and connect to networks independently of what the OS running on the phone tell it to do, its a self contained black box.
If you have something like a desktop or laptop, both Intel and AMD have “management engines” embedded in the CPU’s themselves that can take control of the device for purposes of shutting down, wiping, etc a company machine that has sensitive information or access on it, and has been reported stolen, not returned by an ex employee, etc. These management engines have direct access to the network stack and can phone home whenever a network connections is present, either from a WiFi network, physical Ethernet cable, or 4G/5G WWAN card.

If you have a device that is basically air gapped, no WiFi, no cellphone chip, no bluetooth, etc, than it’s still possible to exfiltrate information off the device, but the software running on the device would have to be programming to be searching for methods to do that. Your average device, unless it’s running malicious software, probably won’t be doing that.
Is calling voLTE audio working yet? I have the OP6T and have postmarketos edge installed but last time I updated it a few weeks ago voLTE still wasn’t working with audio in the calls. My last hold out to start using it as a daily driver.
I hadn’t heard of waypipe so I decided to give this a try, been meaning to reply to this after I got it working, but I didn’t have as much time to test as I thought. I installed waypipe on 2 of my existing ubuntu machines and tested running Mozilla PPA version of firefox (so, not the snap version), watching stuff from YouTube and my jellyfin server, and it wasn’t fully smooth, it was a little slow and choppy. I also didn’t have audio, just video. Maybe you can get it working if you tune it for either hardware acceleration or compression, but I haven’t had much time to test that.
My thoughts would be, if thats a path you wanna go down and you don’t have the machines set up yet, run a ubuntu Live install on both machines from usb sticks,
sudo apt-get install waypipe
On each machine, make sure sshd is running on the “server” ubuntu machine, and test it out and see if it works for your use cases.
From the client machine, I had just run
waypipe ssh user@server program-name
…I know how its supposed to work, I’m just saying instead of giving us healthcare and social nets we get to save money under our own responsibility, and then watch it get spent away in elder years. If you haven’t watched family members spend hundred of thousands on cancer care, or emergency room visits, etc, even though they ‘did the right thing’ and saved, you eventually will.
Also, thanks for calling me dumb. You’re quite a great person to converse with… Don’t bother replying, I won’t be reading any more of your comments because it will not be pleasant exchange of opinions, it seems…
Agreeing with you here, they probably had the last line there to save themselves money, as historically tech items lose value over time, so if you bought an ssd for $200, and 6 months later needed to be replaced or refunded, historically they can realistically offer you $150, as that would traditionally be the new market value after 6 months, but in today’s timeline, now its apparently worth $900 and they probably don’t want to pay that.
