Using the Yuzu case for guidance, dumping encryption keys, regardless of the source of those keys, is illegal
This is false, as the case is non existant, because it has been settled out of court. It has to be proven in court that is illegal, as there's no law that says that dumping the keys from my own hardware that i paid with my own money is illegal.
thanks, i added you to my blocked list
At $12/terabyte/month it seems pretty expensive for media collection (I mean: family photos are irreplaceable but generic video?)
Other options are to use "glacier" tier S3 which is cheap to rent but ultra expensive to recover (but hopefully you won't need that)
Or just put a pi+HDD hidden somewhere at work/parents and copy to that
The problem is that otherwise the ai companies would just pirate the stuff and use it anyway
Take the pocket change is better than nothing
How to make money with shitcoins 101:
-
Pay some $100k to some dev to create something the slightly differs from the existing ones
-
Pay some millions of dollars to some marketing agency to find a way to get this shitcoin popular. A funny name, a funny icon, or some solution in search of a problem. Something like "this shitcoin can lower the transfer fees of other shitcoins and also if you hold the bag you get 69% APR"
-
When it launches you immediately buy it for pennies, or even directly access some premined quota (like 30% of whole distribution) that the dev left for you
-
When idiots buy it, raising the price, you slowly dump it
-
Clueless people did the staking (lock them for a year) of millions of "cat coin", worth $1 each at the time thinking that they are going to get 69% APR. They actually get the 69% APR, but the problem is that each "cat coin" after a year is worth $0.000001 each
It's already the moment of selling high. Buy low is when they're introduced. Shitcoins are generally going down with value. If you buy now you will end losing money 100%
None of them have a real practical application, it's 100% speculation
I have a revolut account and for some reason they give $1 in shitcoins if you answer some questions like "bonk differs from the other shitcoins because it's made for the lolz" or "floki does exactly the same of other shitcoins but slightly different"
The upside is that in this way they use less plastic. Cardboard can't be transparent and people doesn't separate the plastic from the cardboard when recycling.
We all know what razor blades look like so a photo can suffice, no?
It needs to be updated with that other asshole
He is insane
All that info is publicly available, but a nice CSV ready to be fed to spambots isn't a really good idea...
If I was involved with wordpress for business, i would start to find a plan b, because now they target wp engine, then who's next?
Hall said the trial was unfair and continued to insist the bombing didn’t happen as he left the court.
Nice try, openai bot (/s)
LOL genuinely thought it was a case of "engineer hates the user", instead it was a case "management said we need to save 5 cents for the voltage regulator"
Google enforces rules only against small devs. Big companies are allowed to do what the fuck they want.
Example with one of those "ad viewing apps disguised as games", every single screenshot is misleading, showing a different game to what actually will be downloaded. It's clearly a violation of Google Play terms that read:
Screenshots must demonstrate the actual in-app or in-game experience, focusing on the core features and content so users can anticipate what the app or game experience will be like. Use captured footage of the app or game itself.
In the example not a single screenshot demonstrate the actual game experience.
Google sees the big cash influx from ad impressions and IAP from whales and is closing all the eyes
Tencent and Alibaba instead are still allowed to illegally fingerprint and track the user by placing tracking data in /Pictures/.gs_fs0 which for some reason they can access even without storage/photo permission
I saw a bank in my country requiring to have the permission for apps usage, the one that you have to go in settings and toggle it. Refuse and it closes the app
I don't know a single bank that hasn't reinvented the wheel and is using their app as a glorified authentication app for generating totp codes
And then i complained that my bank blocked access if adb was enabled...
If there's no loan attached to that account, for me this message reads "sorry, we don't want you as a customer. Please contact a bank teller to have a full refund, uninstall this app and don't forget to leave a 1 star review"
I'm not willing to compromise on this shit. My phone is my phone.
No it shouldn't validate the license, at the time I purchased it using a Google workspace legacy account and when they raised the prices I deleted the account and it didn't complain
Put the apk on an old android 8 phone and doesn't crash. One day I'll try to inspect logcat to see if it's something that can be fixed
main issue is that i purchased the pro, and there's only the free over there... wait! I can take the apk from the old phone before I wipe it! OMG why i didn't thought of that, i'm dumb. (no sarcasm, I actually forgot to take the apk from the old phone and i was about to wipe it! Thank you for mentioning that!)
edit: fuck.... on android 15 the app crashes when going in background... so it's the dev that intentionally delisted for everyone as low sales = patch not worth the time 😢
It's a cr2032 from Duracell with that coating, later I'm going to try that
I hate this scale, it says low battery and shuts off after just 3 months of sitting in the drawer. It infuriates me that there's still a lot of energy in the battery, I can use that in remote controls with no issues
If there's enough battery to say "low battery", then there's enough battery to show the measurements!
Two mobile operating systems currently comprise nearly 100% of the global smartphone market. Building one is hard, and for most phone makers, there are
I went to install gsam battery monitor on a new phone and it looks like it has been delisted recently.
Does anyone has more info on that? It was a staple on my phones since almost a decade...
Any alternative that shows a graph with rate of charge/discharge?
I bought a refurbished pixel 7 in europe. I assumed it was the european version (GVU6C).
I tested it and it appeared functional in all functions, so i released the escrow to the seller.
Now because I don't trust the software hasn't been tampered, I wanted to clean it with flash.android.com but... can't because it can't unlock the bootloader (even if i connect to internet and call the code ##2432546## to get the "checkin requested" from google play services)
It looks like i have the model GQML3 for Verizon which can't be bootloader unlocked. FUCK! I especially bought this because it can unlock the bootloader...
Anyway.... about restoring the original software....
Phone says "phone is with latest update installed" with android 14 and security update from 5 june 2024.
Can I flash the full image for android 15 with october security update or i risk a brick? Do I need to wait for the lazy fucks at verizon to "certify" the android 15 update? Those fuckers take ages to "certify" the updates...
They can't sell the $699 AI party trick that requires a $24 subscription so they slashed the price to $499. Unfortunately it's still $500 too expensive for what's worth.
Maybe at $10 someone could buy it as a Halloween costume prop and even pay a whole month of subscription just to show off the novelty
A decade ago I used BitTorrent Sync. Then it became Resilio Sync. Then with Resilio Sync 2 they nerfed the free app to a point that I just removed that from all my computers and switched to syncthing.
Yesterday I was watching my server struggling when syncthing was doing the periodic scan of a directory with hundreds of thousands of files and then i thought, "maybe Resilio Sync uses less resources or doesn't waste time reindexing a static directory for the nth time"
I went to see their website and now with the new version 3, all the features are back. The business plan now is to sell the app to enterprises at unaffordable prices rather to persuade consumers to pay a subscription to self host their syncing server
I wanted to try it but now they say docker version is discontinued, need to install the package to bare metal. Ugh... So I desisted and decided to stay with syncthing
Now with the news of the impending discontinuation of syncthing android app, everything changes. Without Android support, syncthing is no more irreplaceable for me.
So, has anyone tried Resilio Sync 3? Is it good?
I saw a 3d printer using plastic pellets instead of filament.
Is this a good idea? Because I never saw anyone doing this.
Seller says "in this way it won't run out of filament" but I have the impression of imprecise extrusions (machine was fitted with a big 0.8mm nozzle)
I got a really weird problem.
Two years ago bought a set of 4x DDR4 3200 16gb each, single sided and placed them in a ryzen 5600 desktop computer, which i almost never turned it off. It worked without issue.
This weekend I wanted to dust off the PC, so I took all the components out, replaced the thermal paste and so on.
Turned on the PC again, worked apparently without issues until after a while Linux was pissed about going out of memory. Out of memory? With 64gb of RAM? I checked with dmidecode -t memory
and I saw that a channel was reporting completely empty.
Shut down the PC, reinserted the second channel, rebooted, saw 64gb. One hour later, kernel panic. Rebooted in memtest86+, error in memory. What? Removed one module, error. Removed two modules, no error. Switched the modules, no error. What??
Placed the two modules that are passing the test in another computer, error. Put back in the original computer, pass test. AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Now I downclocked from 3200 to 2400 and everything seems working fine.
What could be? Have I been cursed?
After a few reinsertions do the slots degrade to a point that can't sustain 3200 anymore?
Segnalato abuso a aruba, dice che magari non è effettivamente phishing e che magari è effettivamente legittima... (il link scarica un file js contenente sicuramente malware da indirizzi ip residenziali, mentre dice 404 not found da ip datacenter/vpn/esteri, l'operatore ha provato ad aprire il link e non ha funzionato)
Inoltre, con mio sgomento, ho scoperto che su pec non è possibile impostare filtri o spam e secondo il supporto aruba questo è da design perché su pec bisogna ricevere tutto sempre, per legge, anche se è phishing, malware o spam. Quindi, è sufficiente pagare 5 euro l'anno ad aruba e si ha una licenza a mandare spam/phishing illimitata.

Intro: Webtoon is an app/website where (mostly Korean) comics are released in short episodes. Those episodes aren't released all at once but usually once a week, you have a free unlock a day and if you want you can have more by either watching an ad or by paying with coins, that are paid with real money. With the smallest purchase ($6), an episode can be unlocked with 3 coins (¢35) up to 7 (¢80). You can also skip the wait by paying with coins. I used it for years and I was ok by watching the ads at the end of each episode. It limited myself to one a day, otherwise I would scroll for hours. But, at the end of June 2024, they did the IPO, so that means ✨enshittification✨
So the guide on how to push away users to piracy:
-
Have a scary reminder at the beginning of every episode that says that piracy is illegal. (I can't screenshot that without a rooted phone, it's blocked). This helps the user to have a daily notification that yes, this content is also available somewhere else and you're not bound to artificial limits.
-
Put the last three episodes of a series started 3-4 years ago in perpetual paywall. No more "just wait one week to get the new episode". You want to see how that 200 episodes story that you're reading almost every day for 3 years ends? LOL pay $6 to buy a coins package!
-
Now that the user is pissed that they can't know how the story ends, they'll just search it on the illegal sites, since over the past years they had to skip through 200 reminders that yes, this story is also available over there.
And it failed spectacularly.
We only needed a simple form, but we wanted to be fancy, so we used "nextcloud forms".
The docker image automatically updated the install to nextcloud 30, but the forms app requires nextcloud 29 or lower. No warning whatsoever. It's an official app, couldn't they wait that it was ready for NC 30 before launching it? The newsletter boasts "NC hub 9 is the best thing after sliced bread" yet i don't see any difference both in visual or performance compared to NC hub 2
Conclusion: we made our business to rely on nextcloud forms as a signup form, but the only reason we were using it was disabled who knows how many weeks ago.
I was accidentally locked out of home again, and I had to call a professional to open the lock.
But if someone was home, they could have just turned the knob of the door from inside. There's a device that can do that? It needs to do 3 full turns and it requires a bit of force to do that (armored door with iron bars that slide in every direction, so it has a big inertia to start)
I saw a ready solution on a store, the iseo x1r, but that costs 1000 euro + another 200 for the gateway (not mandatory but otherwise it uses proprietary Bluetooth protocol and so it can't talk with HA
Several mobile ports of Resident Evil games now require an internet connection when starting the app.
Many users bought Resident evil for iOS because it was working offline. Perfect for long trips. But a new update adds a mandatory DRM online check at start-up.
I wrote bought, but actually the word is rented. One day Capcom stops updating the games (and this is 100% guaranteed) and a few years later the "owner" gets "This app needs to be updated to run on this iPhone"
Meanwhile, people who pirated a cracked ipa, don't get any issue in playing the game offline. DRM exclusively hurts the paying customers.
A lawsuit alleges that Jason Keats, the founder of OSOM, has misused company funds to buy sports cars and fund his lavish lifestyle.
They made millions thanks to crypto bros buying the Solana phone (rebranded osom with custom ROM), claiming the free shit coins, then sending it to e-waste.
Unfortunately those millions weren't invested in new products but to fund the CEO lifestyle.
I love how the endgame was to trying getting acquired by HP for billions but that failed.
Everyone's (also humane ai pin) trying to get acquired by HP, the ultimate bagholder, expert in overvaluing failed startups
"This forces us to build a new economy in severe conditions."
The share is higher than you would expect because they include all apple devices in them because the apple soc is capable of running ai. Of course who's buying a MacBook it's not doing it because "it's an AI PC". Should have included all gaming PCs then...
The report says Lenovo ai PC shipments went up 228% last quarter. Uh... They put on sale their copilot+ devices on the last week of Q2, then of course at the end of Q3 you have such high percentage. They could have said "10000000000000000000000% yoy increase"
No, it's not phishing, it's legit, the header match with google and the link goes to https://accounts.google.com/AccountChooser/signinchooser?continue=https%3A%2F%2Fadmin.google.com%2Fac%2Fac%2Falert%2Fdetails%3FalertId%3D3...
Why not just write the message there instead of letting me login to watch the important notification?????????????????
Apparently xitter saw an access from Russia (even if it's blocked by the government) and had no problem in giving full access to change immediately the password, disable 2fa and start scamming followers.
It seems an easy attack to fix IMHO: if access from Russia (or a country from the other part of the world) on a business account that always tweet from the same place, then deny access even with valid stolen session cookies
Can you notice that it's a bit leaning to the right?
