    Could this be used to root Android devices? Does Android ship with algif_aead?

    The page looks promising but how can I try it out?

    Not if it's their own car industry. They'll only throw the book at foreign companies.

    There are lots of different scenarios you can conjure up. Another could be that Israel assassinated him after he refused to support their nuclear program OR to silence him.

    First thing that came to mind is that he might have been secretly working for Israel's nuclear program but this is all very speculative. It does feel plausible though given that Is…

    He is a nuclear scientist so he might have been working for some country's nuclear program?

    I can't spot anything conspiratorial in that article, though?

    I've seen lots of weird tricks malware authors use, people are creative. My favorite is that they'd load up a text file with a modified base64 table from Dropbox which points to th…

    This is a great idea but I'm a bit concerned about your bandwidth costs and illegal/malicious content being hosted used under your domain. For the second point, you might want to i…

    Huh, my image viewer claimed it's HEIC specifically. My camera also seems to conflate HEIC and HEIF in the settings. It provides HEIF as a format option, when I guess it should be …

    The image is actually HEIF not AVIF :)

    Of course they would. Regulatory capture. In my opinion, regulating AI companies/models is the WRONG way to go. Instead, we should regulate HOW companies/major stakeholders use AI.…

    I tried out NextDNS and this feature doesn't seem to work anyway. Enabling "Bypass Age Verification" has no effect. I tested it out on PornHub and XVideos. I also can't find anythi…

    I had no idea. It's too late to delete my comment now. It's a really ridiculous decision though. There's not a lot that goes into a link redirection service.

    TIL that keyboard and mouse data is used to identify "bad" humans not just bots. It's a bit freaky but not at all surprising.

    I really doubt it was about security/maintenance burdens. Under the hood, goo.gl just uses Firebase Dynamic Links which is still supported by Google. Edit: nevermind, I had no idea…

    This is really interesting. How can you detect when it's the same person passing a captcha? I don't think IP addresses are of any use here as Anti-Captcha proxies everything to the…
