- Comment on Motorola GrapheneOS devices will be bootloader unlockable/relockable 6 days ago:
Google already refuse signing releases for GrapheneOS on the pixel.
Do you mean how you get a special boot screen implying you’re doing something sketchy?
Google signing things is not something we want. We want phones that don’t care if your OS is signed by Google, and banking apps that trust you to pick an OS.

- Comment on Spotify says its best developers haven't written a line of code since December, thanks to AI 3 weeks ago:
My favourite example of Spotify being shit is:
I want to play an album, so I go to it and press play. Then a bit later I want to queue a second album after the first one is done. How do I do that? As far as I can tell the answer is to go fuck myself. I have start a new queue or playlist with both albums in it.
That’s apart from all the basic software quality stuff like randomly restarting the queue.

That’s insane. Even if they did this intentionally to be as difficult as possible, they locked themselves out of being able to detect long presses?

- Comment on Valve & AMD Developers Delivered The Most Code Contributions To Mesa In 2025 2 months ago:
For something pretty low level and gigantic, Mesa (or at least RADV) is a pleasure to hack on. It has a great config system (meson), compiles super fast, has lots of debug functionality, and can easily be loaded into e.g. a game, without any system level configuration.

- Comment on Battlefield 6 cheats day 1 of early access. Depite kernel level anti cheat, forced secure boot TPM 2.0 6 months ago:
It won’t boot though, because the keys to decrypt the system are stored in the TPM.
Sure you could replace the whole OS, but that’s going to be very obvious and won’t allow you access to the data.
