    Compared to any normal hosting provider, you'd be paying 50 €/year for what Oracle is handing over for free. Plus you don't need to use the absolute trainwreck that is the OCI web …

    Well yes, but those won't get Google's new updates either. Open ADB on 5555 was a problem we solved almost a decade ago and these devices are still vulnerable. Even further restric…

    You haven't been able to connect to an android device on port 5555 for yeeears. Every time you enable adb/IP it generates a new random port, or you need to use the QR/PIN pairing t…

    A large part is also how much you read back what the model writes. The good models generally write quite secure code, but they also often implement temporary solutions that they te…

    Realistically, if you have a browser sandbox, the system LPE exploit gives you very little more. Everything interesting on a desktop system is accessible by the user account direct…

    It's a completely different license. A normal software license gives you the right to use version X of the software on Y computers/seats/users/... You have the original installer o…

    That's just it - if remote attestation becomes commonplace, you can't make your own devices. No apps you need to live your life will work, no mainstream websites will let you visit…

    What you also get is mobile devices that can't run unblessed code, make it impossible to remove legally-mandated spyware or backdoors, as well as websites that you can't use anonym…

    TL;DR: people complaining why there aren't bluesky instances are misunderstanding atproto. There are no "instances" like in Mastodon, atproto is different, it uses many "hostings".…

    The user is not free to use whatever codec they want. Many niche codecs can't be put into the usual containers, so if you only accept QuickTime/MP4 and AVI, sometimes even just by …
