I couldn’t agree more.

I figured it was because the government was dropping Windows that they were mock grieving.

Hey, that’s the interns job!

Yeah just went to check and the price in my area is 22-28p/kWh, can confirm.

It’s very fucked over here.

I don’t own a house yet, like most people in the UK under 40, but when I do I will definitely consider it.

So jealous. My energy bill is like £130/m and £80 of that is electricity.

I also self host and I wouldn’t say the cost is zero. In the UK, energy costs alone mean that a 40W computer cost £8 per month to run (assuming a 28p/kWh price).

Of course, that’s assuming you run it 24/7 at full energy use, but I know my PCs run on more than that.

+1. Just last week they added the ability to import Nova backups.

That’s why I take so many pictures, keep them forever and make them searchable.

The full translation of the clip of Gaël Duval provided by GrapheneOS:

There’s the attack surface, on that front we’re not security specialists here, so I couldn’t answer you precisely, but from the discussions I’ve had, it seems that everything we do reduces attack surface.

However, we don’t have a “hardened security” approach, we aren’t developing a phone for pedo(censored) so they can evade justice. So there aren’t difficult things to check if the memory is corrupted, really hardened security stuff that could clearly be useful for executives, in the secret service, or whatever.

That’s not our goal, our goal is to start from an observation: today our personal data is constantly being plundered and that wouldn’t be legal in real life with the mail or the telephone, we want to change that. So we are making you a product that changes that by default for anyone.

As a french speaker, I can attest that the translation is fairly accurate.

While I don’t agree with the characterisation Gaël Duval makes here, I believe the statement from GrapheneOS here:

Duval and his organizations have consistently taken a stance against protecting users from exploits. In this video, he once again claims protecting against exploits is for only useful pedophiles and spies.

Is a bit disingenuous. It sounds like they do make some efforts to secure their device, but it’s not their main focus. Theirs is to improve privacy first and foremost.

I would take anything GrapheneOS devs says with a grain of salt, as we all know that they have quite an adversarial relationship with… well… everyone. But especially other OS makers.

Gotcha! This comment has not been removed… Probably.

Of course they do. They are extremely impartial on the matter and I trust their judgment.

Whoever promised that?

Updated the description to clarify.

The economic incentive from Signals point of view is that it allows them to steal users. Its a lot easier to switch if you don’t have to drag 100% of people you know off a platform to remove their app.

Look up adversarial interoperability if you’re interested. It’s how Facebook got big in the first place.

As for Meta, the only thing they would gain is less scrutiny from regulators as Gatekeepers.

Let me guess:

It’s because all the money goes to billionaires.

Edit: Pretty much what it says. It’s more detailed than that but yeah. Labourers get less, more value is attributed to capital (buildings, land) and collected by the rich.

I mean, they’re right. It’s a very well explained problem and reasonable question.

I guess here the “funny” is that the researcher did not consider this when writing questions, but it’s not particularly surprising.

I don’t trust anything this government does. They always find a way to pick the worst choice for everyone but themselves and their rich backers.

Even if they never abuse these powers (unlikely, given their track record), what’s to stop the next government from abusing them?

The source for this article is another article, which tbh is a better article:

https://cybernews.com/security/global-data-leak-exposes-billion-records/

That article does not itself have a source link, but it does show some redacted sample data and a breakdown of what countries are affected.

I said something similar here about an election fraud detection system with 99.999% accuracy.
