I’m really curious to learn how you get calls in so many different languages. I could definitely see Spanish, English, and maybe Vietnamese all being spoken in a general geographic area, but you listed a lot of diverse languages. Pretty cool if that’s really all within one area!

They just sent out a mass email to users yesterday informing us of this, I got it too. I wonder if it wasn’t getting enough attention, or if they wrote this back in June but only just made the article visible.

People need to understand what this will mean from a developer perspective before getting all up in arms. This initiative is more kneejerk emotional than it is realistic.

If you’re going to watch only one of these videos, watch the second one:

I use Backblaze B2, but stored in an encrypted Restic container, set up using this guide:

https://helgeklein.com/blog/restic-encrypted-offsite-backup-with-ransomware-protection-for-your-homeserver/

Restic has been great for automating backups, and even letting me mount the encrypted storage to grab individual files. I like doing it this way since I don’t have to trust Backblaze isn’t reading my data - I know for sure that they can’t.

Performance of storage that is both remote and encrypted is about what you would expect, but I don’t need access to the data unless something bad happens.

Hi :)

If you’re already running an instance, you’re not going to have a good time of this on the same server unfortunately. The webserver config I ship assumes a single instance, and all of the handling assumes only one domain. You would have to basically modify my entire script to support something like this.

You can take a look at my advanced configuration page to figure out what files you can edit, but this would be a very manual process for what you want to do.

Apologies, but you would be better off deploying a new server.

Try CrossCode! It’s action based so it won’t feel too RPG-y.

The story is really good and the characters are extremely well written. At the risk of sounding cliche, they’re so well written they feel like real people.

The dungeons have puzzles which you may enjoy since you like Zelda games.

The combat is really fast and skill based, and you respawn immediately at the last door you walked through, so you might find this gameplay loop rewarding since you like Souls games.

You don’t have to grind, but if you do try this game, try beating a bunch of enemies until the S rank bar appears. Something fun will happen :)

CalyxOS (and the supported devices) expose you to a classic “evil maid attack” applied to phones.

As usual if you’re looking to have any security (Verified boot) GrapheneOS + Pixel phone is the only options. I really don’t get it how come people(…) are okay with having a phone with all their personal data and logins without verified boot. Stolen / lost phone and game over.

But CalyxOS focuses on verified boot too?

Not sure what you mean. I’m not trying to use an external monitor, I just want to use AR glasses I already own. There’s no adapter for that, it’s just a USB C cable.

I really hope this will let my AR glasses work. I was bummed they didn’t work with my Pixel 6 Pro, and half the reason I went for an 8 Pro were the initial display out support news from July.

When this workaround was reported to not work, I was pretty bummed, but this seems like a good sign. I’ll be building my own ROM anyway, so I can easily set this property enabled by default with no need for root.

0.12kg over four years??

How is that not within the margin of error?

More like guesswork/assumptions than reality

Sorry to be blunt, but you’re not a developer and it shows. Android’s build system was purpose made to be reproducible. Electron was not.

There is so much going on in an Electron build, most of which is out of Signal’s control unless they maintain an entire fork of the Electron build stack. That is an enormous engineering effort for basically zero benefit.

It probably is functionally reproducible, apart from checksums differing due to build dates baked into the artifacts somewhere. It’s not as easy as you think.

If you think it’s as easy as “building it in a Docker container,” then by all means, try.

Thanks, I didn’t know about this!

But it doesn’t look like it supports text message triggers :(

The person you replied to is being downvoted, and yes, expecting support from Google is a meme, and Google deserves 100% of the negativity they’re receiving in this regard.

But, in their defense, they have always kept their word on keeping Pixels updated, and in some cases, have added on an additional year of support when not originally planned, including an extra full Android update for older devices.

So while they eventually kill every new software product they make, they’ve always kept their word on Pixel updates. I think the Pixel team has a lot more resources than the rest of Google, so I’m inclined to believe them for now, but I’ll be one of the first people grabbing a pitchfork if they don’t keep their word.

There have been a few RCE’s for Android 11 and up impacting both Bluetooth and the Baseband.

Bluetooth:

Baseband:

https://www.malwarebytes.com/blog/news/2023/03/update-android-now-two-critical-vulnerabilities-patched

Of course, Android 11 is still supported as of right now, so if you have been getting security updates when available, then you are good. I just know there are phones running 11 and below that don’t even get security updates, so those are the people that need to watch out. You can check your Security Patch Level in settings to be sure.

If you haven’t been getting security updates, I would definitely consider getting a new phone. Especially if you are not one that stays home a lot. The people who will try to exploit things like Bluetooth will be out and about, not walking up to your home.

Be careful, there have been some pretty nasty 0-click exploits in the time Android 11 has been around, so I hope you have still been getting security updates.

In about 5 months, Android 11 will be end of life and won’t get security updates anymore, so definitely keep an eye out for anything you may be vulnerable to.

And just like that I learned about a Steam Deck piracy community.

Something something Streisand Effect.

ChickenThoughts is one of the things I miss from Reddit :(

You can make “brand accounts” on YouTube that are a completely different profile from the default account. She probably won’t notice if you make one and switch her to it.

You’ll probably want to spend some time using it for yourself secretly to curate the kind of non-radical content she’ll want to see, and also set an identical profile picture on it so she doesn’t notice. I would spend at least a week “breaking it in.”

But once you’ve done that, you can probably switch to the brand account without logging her out of her Google account.
