My biggest question is if they use Halium/libhybrys at all, something that is hard to figure out from the marketing but their GitHub repos does have hybris-related stuff. That makes it a non-Linux device to me. Hybris breaks a lot of l

Have you seen the prices for Google Drive et al? The NAS setup you describe (which I wouldn't consider worth the money for that little space) is what, 12GB with 1 parity drive? Google One for 10TB is 274,99€/mo (at least in my cou

As someone learning Japanese I'm really appreciating tools built for JP specifically: Renshuu and Wanikani. Both use SRS (same as duolingo) but spend a considerable amount of time actually teaching the grammar and nuances, they both av

Correction: they chose AGPL with a poison pill (CLA) so they can benefit from it and take it away whenever they want more.

Yup, and you can already mix and match both local and cloud AIs with stuff like SillyTavern/RealmPlay if you wanna try what the experience is like, people have been using it to roleplay for a while.

Maybe not yet? Google already made having non-store extensions as annoying as possible (e.g. a nag every time you open Chrome that tells you to disable them) and maybe they think that's working well enough to dissuade people.

It probably scared the downstream, see Microsoft pushing out a press release as soon as possible since they have been investing tons of money and PR into their OpenAPI partnership and needed to calm their investors and partners.

Just look around forums and socials like Reddit. I see people bitching how OBS Studio doesn't work for them the exact way they want it while contributing nothing to the project almost daily. This happens less where the FOSS choice is a

At least from face value it seems the value of those patents is exactly to fight back patent pools organizations, at part of the AOM stipulation is that if someone tries to sue over AV1 patents they would lose access to every patent holder

My biggest problem with the whole mentality is that most high profile shootings are still being carried out with unsecured methods, e.g. the Paris shooting from 2015 was organized via bare SMS. If law enforcement can't catch criminals

I never said it was the majority, but if you look at the numbers there's a chunkable size of population that don't change (and it's been higher than the Mozilla market share for many years now), that number is getting bigger

In Italy we have already digital IDs through SPID[1] which is most likely going to be phased into eIDAS and it works a similar way (though way less standardized), government websites can integrate it willy-nilly while private companies have

I would assume coercing the OS providers (MS/Apple/Google) who do sell a system with a browser for money into shipping the backdoored browser would be enough of a win for them. Not a lot of people change their browser, even when

I've also started doing this, with USB-C to C cables you might want to get something like the C2C caberQU cable tester as a lot of cheap type c cables don't actually wire all the conductors. Also I like to note the cable length on

Yeah the headline is so exaggerated you can literally come up with a retort faster than they could come up with it. Heck I bet if a new Windows XP exploit showed up tomorrow it would still wreck chaos.

I'm skeptical not of the claims but of the usability long-term, tablets like the BOOX Tab Ultra C look great but they commit to violating the GPL rather than giving users a chance to mess with the internals. I've been loosely foll
