  • AirDrop cracked by China, revealing phone number & email

  • Finding an exploit created by state-level actor is not a massive L. They have shown in the past that they are able to hack air gaped systems, weaken commonly used security standards and implant vulnerabilities into commercial software. I don't think you will find a company that is immune to this. Other than that, did they really have so many security issues recently?

  • Linux laptop recommendation thread🐧💻

  • Get some live distro first and check it out without installation. You will be able to test some basic desktop environments very easily. Most of the distros will have live image. Even better run it in a virtual machine and play around. Test KDE, Gnome, Cinnamon and XFCE. Look at some themes and plugins. I think customizing your desktop is a nice, visual way to see how flexible it all is and get the feel of how configuration files work. If you will like what you can achieve with a bit of work you will just keep going. If you will find it 'stupid and useless' it's probably not for you.

  • Greenland startup begins shipping glacier ice to cocktail bars in the UAE

  • You go girl, milk those stupid rich people for all you can. I sure hope they are just pretending to transport ice and are actually selling them frozen tap water. Getting rich people to pay lots of money for stupid shit is basically wealth redistribution.

  • Lonely in a crowded world: Loneliness is an epidemic, and like COVID, it might require a public health response

    Jump

  • I've checked the article for public health type solutions and all it says is that you should go to a park and a library if you have some nearby. Also “We all need friends. I am here for you.” .

  • Michelle Obama says she’s terrified about potential outcome of 2024 election

    Jump

  • Yes, I did and I think she absolutely can be "concerned" or "worried". I just doubt she's "terrified". If she's that empathetic to those in need what is she actually doing to help them? Her wikipage says that "In 2021, the former first lady announced that she has been "moving toward retirement".[90] Though she continues to be active in political campaigns, the former first lady has said she is reducing the amount of work to spend more time with her husband." It doesn't mention any actual work she did since 2007. I don't know them but for me she and Obama just look like another rich couple enjoying their lives and not engaging at all with common people. But now she's terrified for them? I don't buy it. Just my opinion though.

  • Michelle, if you're reading this, relax. You have enough money to easily move to any country on the planet. You'll be fine.

  • Apple Vision Pro available in the U.S. on February 2

    Jump

  • I don't really get the point of all this. Sci-Fi movies are trying go convince us for a very long time that interacting with a computer by standing and waving your hands around is the future but for me it just looks tiring. I prefer my keyboard and mouse. We'll see how many people Apple can convince. Maybe they are right and you just have to use it to believe it...

  • Elon Musk's drug use causing turmoil for Tesla, SpaceX execs: WSJ

    Jump

  • I like John Oliver's take that he really didn't like the orders to shut down factories during pandemic and got a lot of support from 'mah freedom' nutjobs over this causing not-so-slow fall into the extreme right rabbit hole. It actually makes a lot of sense. He clearly craves attention and approval. He used to get it from the left because electric cars are green and SpaceX is cool technology but eventually the left began demanding more regulation and he started getting some criticism (which he doesn't like that much...). At the same time he noticed that the right is ready to accept him as the 'free speech savior' and love him unconditionally as long as he will help them 'own the libs' so he switched sides.

  • Yep, that's the bug I'm talking about. I had it and I'm not using GrapheneOS so for me the app was 'read only' and I stopped using it. And it was exclusive to Jerboa for me, all the other apps work fine.

  • Or just think for yourself and have your own opinions about issues instead of signing up for an entire ideology.

  • You commenting here proves you're not using Jerboa. Or was the keyboard bug finally fixed?

  • How do you use your tiling window manager?

    Jump

  • I just use Super+p to run commands. Awesome and custom keybidings are to easily move between tags, windows and monitors, not to launch programs. I use nvim for coding and this combined with awesome means I can do a lot without touching my mouse. At work I use Cinnamon and IntelliJ tools and it's just less ergonomic. Not a huge difference but I definitely prefer my home setup. In general all Linux WM I used over the years were easy to configure and get good experience. The worst environment I had to ever use was OS X. I just hated all their weir solutions like the launch bar and the common menu bar on top. On Linux I never had any issues.

  • It is essential to stop using Chrome. Under the pretense of saving users from third-party spyware, Google is creating an ecosystem in which Chrome itself is the spyware.

  • IMHO unfortunately most people will always go for what's more convenient, don't care about their privacy and don't mind ads and there's not much we can do about it. Eventually all the content on the web will be locked up behind a paywall and/or accompanied by nu-blockable ads. Most users won't mind that. We'll be left with what we can host/support ourselves like lemmy or mastodon.
