It stems from companies being too cheap to get people work phones, but still wanting them to be available

I assume that’s how SCP-3008 was created

https://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-3008

We were taught about OpenMP in like 2012 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenMP

Intel’s TBB was also used some, but not as frequently https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threading_Building_Blocks

For what it’s worth, it seems like it’s this “journalist” trying to make a sensational headline

The researchers themselves very clearly just tried to see if it could happen in our reality

“We decided to look at the probability of a given string of letters being typed by a finite number of monkeys within a finite time period consistent with estimates for the lifespan of our universe,”

I’ve used Matrix since the app was called Riot.im and there was no encryption

I didn’t realize once encryption was added, that there were still metadata leaks as compared to Signal

Could you give me some information on what metadata is unencrypted, or point me towards documentation about that?

Yeah. The crowd rooting for Qualcomm has never worked with them

ARM has it’s problems, but they aren’t in the wrong here

Every carrier lets you use an unlocked phone on their network

T-Mobile no longer lets you buy unlocked phones from them

Microsoft has agreed to purchase all of the power from the reactor over the next 20 year

The original reporting sounded decent - Microsoft was spinning up a decommissioned reactor, everyone wins

This new reporting of they can’t afford it makes it seem like a bad idea in its entirety

I mean, it’s internally consistent with the inbetween too, for the first three:

They went Xbox, did a 360 to face the same direction, and re-released the Xbox 1

It’s not just betas - it’s in the main release, too

We’re still using them on machines where performance doesn’t matter

On build machines, they’re on a special VLAN and don’t have endpoint protection, but they only download from a protected mirror

Their ftrace hooks caused all disk usage to be serialized, making your multi-core processor single-core when doing anything I/O bound

We saw between 500% - 800% increases in build times with their software installed

Oh god. Sentinel one is horrible. If they’re taking issue with your testing, you’ve really screwed the pooch

Somewhere around 0,0 or 1,1

There are amazing possibilities in the theoretical space, but there hasn’t been enough of a breakthrough on how to practically make stable qubits on a scale to create widespread hype

If an attacker gets access to your system, they will be able to ensure you can’t get rid of their access

It will persist across operating system installs

However, this requires them to get access first

How does one flash a ROM without unlocking the bootloader these days?

Shouldn’t that break Android Verified Boot?

A pure GSI image could use a Google key, I suppose, but others shouldn’t, right?

Isn’t #2 the only option?

Websites specifying color for foreground (or background) and assuming browsers will use whatever color they’re expecting for the other has always existed, and still exists

If you’re getting fancy and specifying colors, you can’t cheap out and not specify all colors

If the browser ignores all your colors at that point, then it’s displaying as the user intended

If you only specified some of the colors, it’s a bug of the website

The even crazier part to me is some chip makers we were working with pulled out of guaranteed projects with reasonably decent revenue to chase AI instead

We had to redesign our boards and they paid us the penalties in our contract for not delivering so they could put more of their fab time towards AI

Separated over the PCIe bus with an IOMMU between it and system memory, as well as hardware switches to disable it if I’m not reachable

I haven’t found a way to remove it entirely. It’s the only option I’ve found so far, but if you know of a better designed option, I’m certainly interested

You have to enable developer mode and install with --bypass-low-target-sdk-block now.

Dunno if they’ll remove that eventually
