    xdg already provides "portals" and "XDG Intents" that implement most of what android does. Flatpak implements most of the sandboxing you have on android. It doesn't have feature pa…

    Code names for phones, all android builds (including official ones) have them. https://storage.googleapis.com/play_public/supported_devices...

    It's not Broadcom so it is supportable by OpenWrt. It runs Qualcomm IPQ5332 SoC which recently got supported in upstream linux ath12k drivers... There are a few patches to make it …

    N95 was not "meager" for it's time - it was faster than the first iPhone.

    Mainly because Microsoft wants to have "connected standby": the CPU is running in a low power mode (not powered off like "old" S3 sleep), can be turned on periodically and can turn…

    This post is everything wrong with the world today. Installing software should not be gate-kept. Who's to say that some current or future government in the US wouldn't use the data…

    And it can fail in great ways. Last example: I asked claude for a non-trivial backup and recovery script using restic. I gave it the whole restic repo and it still made up paramete…

    I think this is a snap issue.

    And they are the only real solution. Demand fitting production is never going to work unless we give up all the autonomy.

    SNI routing is such a bad way to do what should be L3 problem that people implemented PROXY protocol to send information about user's endpoint address without doing MITM.

    All desktop/mobile OSes today use "Stable privacy addresses" for inbound traffic (only if you are hosting something long-term) and "Temporary addresses" for outbound traffic and P2…

    You can do fc00::/7 in addition to public addresses so your lights don't have public address while your phone does.

    And the worst part about CGNAT is that you have two bad solutions: Either EIM/EIF (preferably with hairpinning) where you can practically do direct connections but you have to limi…

    Trivially easy do direct connections between devices (if desired), no issues when creating VPNs between networks using private ranges. What would be the disadvantage?

    Temporary addresses are used by any Linux distro using NetworkManager (all desktop ones). For server distros, it can differ.

    Even gcc's -O0 will do the bitshift, but even dividing with 5 on x86_64 will not do idiv: imul rdx, rdx, 1717986919 shr rdx, 32 sar edx sar eax, 31 sub edx, eax mov eax, edx

    Minor nitpick: dynamic memory allocation is not used when processing packets, but is when adding/removing clients via netlink.

    Yes, VLAN isolation prevents this - devices in different VLANs use different GMK keys even when connected to the same network.

    This only works for one SSID. Even then, one thing that can mitigate this is using Private-PSK/Dynamic-PSK on WPA2, or using EAP/Radius VLAN property. On WPA3/SAE this is more comp…

    You can't think all the way about refining your prompt for LLMs as they are probabilistic. Your re-prompts are just retrying until you hit a jackpot - refining only works to increa…

    They have different goals: GrapheneOS wants to make a FOSS Android with the security model that makes it hard for any bad party to break into the phone. LineageOS wants to make a F…

    Interesting... I rarely form words in my inner thinking, instead I make a plan with abstract concepts (some of them have words associated, some don't). Maybe because I am multiling…
