Doesn’t stop a homemade drone and a fragmentation payload. Or for that matter, a rigged car or location.
- Comment on Quick post about AI-free FireFox Based Browsers (Keep your Adds and avoid the Bloat) 1 week ago:
My netizen on the internet, GrapheneOS (what I am currently using), PostmarketOS, and LineageOS are all right over on Android devices - alongside alternate app stores like F-Droid, Accrescent, and anonymous play store front ends like Aurora.
Let’s not spread lies here, m’kay?
- Comment on I need to vent about plastic milk jugs 1 week ago:
That could be a “curb-cut effect” result for the initial purpose - used to ensure volume, but doubles as a good way to align a label.
- Comment on Sometimes it do be like that 1 week ago:
It’s an imgur problem due to them not wanting to comply with certain laws (California privacy laws for my situation I suppose).

…leave iOS?
- Comment on Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto? 1 week ago:
Couldn’t a savvy user just find an exploitable firmware revision, never connect the vehicle to the internet, and install aftermarket software or hardware to bypass the authentication checks? It would be more of a pain in the ass than the previous drop in system, but I’d imagine it’s possible.
- Comment on Why Are Cars Getting Rid Of Android Auto? 1 week ago:
I doubt it will be completely impossible - we’d just be returning to a situation similar to game consoles and modchips - any aftermarket parts need to lie to the “authentication” checks in place first.
I would expect that certain aftermarket groups would specialize based on popular models, maybe even prioritizing models designed to be interoperable with others design and parts wise (Subaru and perhaps Toyota comes to mind).
- Comment on What free to play games can run smoothly on my old laptop? 1 week ago:
Running the server at the same time as your client (separate steam library entry) isn’t very taxing, fortunately.
- Comment on Activist group says it has scraped 86m music files from Spotify 1 week ago:
Probably not, but doesn’t stop them from issuing the takedown request, I suppose.
- Comment on Activist group says it has scraped 86m music files from Spotify 1 week ago:
Theoretically a node could be (since Anna’s is decentralized and not consolidated), but in practice I think it’s reasonable to believe no. Just accessible by US internet users and hosted somewhere outside the DMCA’s grip.
- Comment on Activist group says it has scraped 86m music files from Spotify 1 week ago:
They’re decentralized, though. Hammer them down and a mirror will pop right up. Clearly they are also willing to work with places that are out of reach of Western Copyright law as well, given their prior interactions with Deepseek’s development.
- Comment on Devastated PC builder orders DDR5 RAM from Amazon, receives DDR2 and some weights — counterfeit 32GB kit a worrying sign of rising return and sales fraud 2 weeks ago:
You can order direct from the manufacturer’s website, I’ve done that with most of my workshop equipment and audio stuff.

Notice how the the NSO platform is not available on the PC platform? No sale.

- Comment on Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox 2 weeks ago:
60hz is a measure of screen refresh rate, so a cap of 60fps max, no matter the screen’s actual capabilities.
As an electrical engineering student myself, I worry about your dad lol
- Comment on Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox 2 weeks ago:
Ironfox is pretty much just for android, it’s essentially the Librewolf model but has less aggressive default settings.
- Comment on Mozilla’s new CEO is doubling down on an AI future for Firefox 2 weeks ago:
Librewolf’s automatic cap at 60hz (anti-fingerprinting measure, I know, but annoying AF), and elements that break websites usually are the parts that turn people away. I’d rather use something like IronFox or Waterfox instead and just customize them.
- Comment on Price of a 'bot army' revealed across hundreds of online platforms worldwide 2 weeks ago:
Known bot harbors could be defederated. Perhaps even instance size limits may be imposed (requiring new instances to “prove themselves”.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
That was the case with The Finals (Embark’s previous game) according to testimony by the team, and they are using the same development practices here.

Lol, lmao even.
Only thing I see changing is the production budget decreasing for higher margins on their films.

- Comment on Sam Altman’s Dirty DRAM Deal 4 weeks ago:
Thing is, at the scale that a home server is likely to be providing, you don’t really need an upgrade at all for any of the components except storage and maybe a 2.5gig ethernet card depending on services available.
Also, like the other commenter said: SSDs. SATA ones (unless you have free PCIE lanes then use an m.sata adapter board).
- Comment on Sam Altman’s Dirty DRAM Deal 4 weeks ago:
For a personal server, just buy a liquidated office/business workstation and add storage as needed. Probably will still be cheap since the win10 EOL has lead a bunch of those machines onto auction sites.
