How about the ~100 Grammer? Or even just “100 G” if you’re trying to be “hip.”

But when did you set Authy up? I don’t recall when Authy made the change, but it wouldn’t kick you out. It would, however, prevent you from signing in a new device. So if you lose your phone, you might lose access to those tokens…

Same website (granted, different author, but), same inflammatory language, same vendor, referencing previous erroneous article…I’m not even gonna read this one. Just going to copy/paste my previous response from the previous post:

At a certain point it’s the consumer’s (and blog writer’s) fault, and that’s after EoL. Not patching a supported one and just getting rid of support, saying buy a newer one? Yeah, that’s bad.

Continuing to not support an EoL model that you already don’t support due to EoL (or even dropping support for an EoL model that no one expected you to support in the first place due to EoL)? Non-issue.

Doesn’t he have a rather large role in the party of small government?

And hopefully does something about. Disciplinary for the poor OPSEC and/or better resources to avoid it and/or better laws to stop this unfettered data collection and/or better training to avoid it in the future. Here’s hoping. Holds breath

Depends. In my experience, it usually does exist. Now there are hallucinations where GPT makes up stuff or just misinterprets what it read. But it’s super easy to read the GPT output, look at the cited work, skim works for relevance, then tweak the wording and citing to match.

If you just copy/paste and take GPT’s word for it without the minimal amount of checking, you’re digging your own grave.

I uploaded one of my earlier papers that I wrote myself, before AI was really a thing, to a GPT detector site. The entire intro paragraph came back as 100% AI written.

I’m sometimes super slow at the start of self checkout. If the bags are stuck together, not open, and if I didn’t bring my own, sometimes it takes me 2 minutes just to open a plastic bag. I’m trying my hardest!

old system of writing them down on paper

That’s harder to steal/hack by someone across the globe.

The Human Cannonball? He got launched out of the cannon and did one flip before getting caught by the net.

That’s what it looks like to the untrained eye. But they’re not really going to fire a person out of a cannon. That’s not safe. So he just huddles in the cannon, they light a decoy fuse, it makes a bang (with no projectile), and he spring out and jumps that distance by himself. Requires a lot of core and leg strength.

NPR quits Twitter after being falsely labeled as ‘state-affiliated media’

Your data has monetary value to google. Giving them access, without getting any money from them (or even knowing what ways it will be used) is not something you must do.

To be fair, while you may not be getting money in its direct form (cash, bank deposit, etc) from Google, they are providing you a service which costs them money for free. So they are providing something of monetary value.

Only the individual can determine if their data is worth that free (to the individual, not free to Google) service. I’m assuming that most people in a privacy community would be against that, though.

CalyxOS relocks the bootloader and they supported the FP5 right after launch.

CalyxOS is not a hardened OS, and GrapheneOS requires more than than just relocking the bootloader.

Fairphone’s devices do not meet basic security requirements for hardware, firmware and the software device support including drivers. Please look at the hardware requirements at https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices and check for yourself how many of those are provided by the Fairphone. Even the Fairphone 5 has a CPU core from 2021 without even PAC and BTI.

You can still be part of a project without being lead, to be part of the “we.” Did he contribute and/or is he part of GrapheneOS, yes? So he’s part of the “we.”

Or does only the lead developer get the “we?” Wouldn’t that make it more of an “I” instead?

Thai article reminded me to buy (and hopefully beat) KCD before KCDII comes out in Feb 2025.

On the Xbox store, the DLC bundle (no game) was normally $20, but 75% off so it was only $5. The game+DLC bundle was normally $40, but it was 90% off so it was only $4. Easy choice, even if I already had the game and no DLC

I have no idea how to make beer…

How to Make Your Own Beer

Why do people phish, dumpster dive, or social engineer? So they can snoop and grab anything of value.

and a hefty tip to the waiter.

And I detest tipping culture, though I of course don’t fault the wait staff. I’d rather go to a local joint that pays its people appropriately…which are hard to find, admittedly.

I’d love to have working NFC pay

NFC works. NFC payment is dependent on the app as some block those that fail Play Integrity / Google certification. Google Wallet / Pay does not work for payment because Google blocks it.

Anker Prime Charger (250W, 6 Ports, GaNPrime): $169.99 but there’s a $30 code that shows up for me, which brings it to one penny below your $140 too steep threshold.
