  • You really trust a company(google) who warns users about malware from apks(non-google).. and then hosts plenty of unchecked malware in their own store. Im sick of this shit. I have my own friends distrusting me because of what google is telling them.

  • Google is corrupt

  • We share a public space with LLMs now

  • "In kernel development, debugging is very hard for several reasons:

    • Documentation is often hard to find, and BIOS implementations may be flawed (more often than you would think)
    • On boot, the kernel has full access to the memory and is allowed to write where it should not (its own code, for example)
    • Troubleshooting memory leaks is not easy. Tools such as valgrind cannot be used
    • gdb can be used with QEMU and VMWare, but the kernel may have a different behaviour when running on a different emulator or virtual machine. Also, those emulators may not support gdb (example VirtualBox)
    • Some features in the support for gdb in QEMU or VMWare are missing and gdb might even crash sometimes

    All those issues are reasons for using a memory-safe language, to avoid them as much as possible.

    Overall, the use of Rust in the kernel allowed for the implementation of a lot of safeguards. And I believe that it is, to this day, the best decision I have made for this project."

  • I think this is really cool.But..What it is: low bandwidth literal physical replacement of internet infrastructure. Often seen as a very extreme manuver.

    Meanwhile: there are various overlay projects like i2p which, unfortunately, create new internets which [almost totally] reliance on the old internet. But they do cooler shit.

  • Diaspora allows for whitelisting visibility of posts to certain users(and servers.. depending on where users are hosted)

  • POS does not consume resources.This goes to show how low-effort the criticism campaigns are.However... all cryptos have their health tied to bitcoin which is a large energy consumer. So the point is actually still very true (due to some other reason).

  • immediately followed by the rollout of Google Self-Driving Car Project Business -Waymo

  • i think google just says that to scare ppl away from foss

  • I cant find any information that discusses the security risk. But it would seem that this transfering all content to the owner of the phone number is a standard feature.So, maybe its not discussed because it doesn't frequently happen.It doesnt seem like a trustworthy way to ensure users' content remains secure.Update:https://old.reddit.com/r/signal/comments/8r7tbc/someone_impersonating_me_using_my_old_number_what/https://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007062012-Change-Numberhttps://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007062452-What-do-I-do-if-my-phone-is-lost-or-stolenhttps://support.signal.org/hc/en-us/articles/360007059752-Backup-and-Restore-Messages

  • If someone trys to register with an existing number then it wont work if its already being used.Im not sure on this^Better to enable a security pin if you are concerned.The traditional phone system involvement is annoying.

  • Windows problems

  • Are you a robot?

    <fails captcha>

    I guess not

  • ”It’s important to maintain control of this phone number."

    I strongly feel that this is false.

  • This is what flatpak brings to the table
