    On top of that a sizable percentage of theft victims don't even bother to report it stolen.

    They send them to countries where they aren't locked or break it down for parts.

    Add a finger print sensor at some point. Lovely design.

    That's just your opinion. Has nothing to do with Linux. And yes I would like a device like a soldered in tpm device that can generate private keys and verify signatures signed with…

    I don't agree that your example makes sense. Don't feel like writing a wall of text. Zero justification for a locked down system.

    It needs to come stock on every Linux laptop from now going forward period. Like you expect a screen to come with your machine. Every Mac has one now and I'm not going back to typi…

    My professional opinion is that APKs can be de-compiled regardless and that has nothing to do with tokenized payments themselves which are like you said handled through server-serv…

    The payment doesn't happen on the device. It happens at the VISA/Mastercard/AMEX level. So "the app" should be doing the validation upstream on the server side and simply reporting…

    The crypographic flow that allows payments to work is straight up pub/priv key encryption with one time use tokens. It's not something you can hack. As soon you see the token it's …

    Device attestation is how you can use private keys you don't actually have access to. It has a lot of value to literally anyone who wants to store tokens or use one time authentica…

    All of those problems had nothing to do with technology and everything to do with economic mismanagement. And the commies were the worst at it. The US never had famines even at the…

    Watching ffmpeg go from a niche tool for web back ends to what it is now has been incredible.

    There have always been people with no tech experience building startups generating spaghetti code. It's just that now it looks a lot more polished.

    In what universe would I jump from a proprietary OS to another proprietary OS without a damn good reason?

    NEM 2.0 doesn't pay as much anymore but that could just be increased grid electricity costs.

    You know I can just not use that grid electricity, pay the absolute minimum, and then do everything off grid right?

    That doesn't really matter when you're buying a house in CA. It's a relatively small percentage of a difference in my overall mortgage. I'd rather have Prop 13 even if that means s…

    4.6 kg is easily dwarfed by just one of the trees on my lot. I do like the math though. Gonna be very useful for space colonization
