Android 4 was the reunification of Android 2 for phones and Android 3 for tablets. I think it coincided with the launch of the original Nexus 7 and Google Assistant, and I think I was installing third-party Android 4 builds on one of the first US phones with 4G LTE.
The author misses the irony of leaving Twitter, a for-profit, centralized, social network for Bluesky, a different, for-profit, centralized social network. Hopefully it’s different this time.
You need to factor in other economic factors. How much is this in terms of median salary? How much is this in terms of child care costs? Currency conversion is based on how much the currency is worth in the other country.
We can all hate Elon and Twitter, but we’re really arguing in favor of internet censorship and extraditions for foreign citizens living in their home country that, knowingly or unknowngly, assisted or has employees that assisted people in circumventing that censorship.
Elon is not in Brazil, and making the service available via CloudFlare was not an action taken in Brazil. Brazil should be able to seize assets in Brazil and change how they block access to prevent Twitter from doing business in Brazil, but arresting people in other countries for something like this is extreme.
large companies who can afford the security infra to do those checks and store that data
There is no such company. This is just another way to ban “harmful” content. Verifying your identity and age to access restricted content is practically guaranteed to result in your identity being compromised within your lifetime.
This is a bad idea. If breaking the law of any country can result in extradition to that country then people are going to be getting extradited for things like disrespecting the communist party.
Children also learn to reading and writing using copyrighted works, often from borrowed books that they aren’t paying for. Some corporations would love if everyone had to pay individually, maybe per use, to access copyrighted material, and New York Times and American pro sport leagues would love if they could actually own recollections of copyrighted material, but neither of these is good for normal people.

OpenAI is right. Almost everything of value on the internet is under copyright, and very little on the internet has clearly and unambiguously specified licensing information. If the software can only be trained on content that clearly allows training, the model isn’t going to “know” anything about anything since Steamboat Willie and it isn’t going to use broken dialects of older English from being limited to only public domain works that have been digitized and made available as public domain (reprints may not be public domain).
For me it’s a combination of alerts being sent to the wrong areas and a disagreement about importance. I don’t need an alert if it’s hot outside, nor do I need an alert for every update about an earlier alert. People aren’t turning off alerts because they don’t know how to turn them on.
This is the guide for making the gif look good: https://blog.pkh.me/p/21-high-quality-gif-with-ffmpeg.html
The article isn’t that clear, but the attacker cannot get Slack AI to leak private data via prompt injection directly. Instead, they tell it that the answer to a question is a fake error containing a link which contains the private data, and then when a user that can access the private data asks that question they get the fake error and clicking the link (or automatic unfurling?) causes the private data to be sent to the attacker.
There’s a browser extension for that. It also works on Pintrest and other useless sites. https://iorate.github.io/ublacklist/docs
It is possible to remove the referer header:
They can most likely prevent further breakdown through software. If the meters and controls are functioning correctly, they can undervolt the CPU. But it’s not really a fix if that comes with a performance penalty. If it’s a bug where the CPU maxes out the voltage when idle so it can do nothing faster, that could be fixed with no performance penalty, but that seems unlikely.
I’ve heard speculation that this is exasperated by a feature where the CPU increases the voltage to boost clocks when running single core workloads at low temperatures. If that’s true, having less load or better cooling may be detrimental to the life of the processor.
In theory, running a serverless function can provide adequate response times at costs that are unreachable with private servers. It’s basically those services that would run your application for few minutes every time it received a request, but with theoretically lower overhead since it’s supposed to be a function instead of a full application.
Apple doesn’t want it to be VR. They want people to buy this expensive VR headset and wear it all day, but you can’t wear it in public because of how silly it looks, and you can’t carry it around everywhere because it doesn’t fit in your pocket and you can’t just toss it in a bag without damaging it, and you can’t even just wear it around your house unless you’re moving from outlet to outlet. The Vision Pro is an impossible cross between Facebook’s Quest Pro and Smart Glasses products. The technology to make a successful product out of it doesn’t exist yet.
There are ways to use the Vision Pro as a regular VR headset, but then you’re paying for things you’re not using.
The link is broken, but this is apparently an issue with Signal Desktop, not regular Signal. The proposed solution does not work on Windows: https://www.electronjs.org/docs/latest/api/safe-storage
[…] content is protected from other users on the same machine, but not from other apps running in the same userspace.
It’s unfortunately about the best you can do on Windows.
How is the drone going to determine that it is being used to commit a crime?
The other problem is that the mouse does not click properly. Apple is still stubbornly refusing to put a second physical button in their mice. For almost 20 years they’ve been selling mice that can emulate right clicking by using a touch surface, but it seems like you still need to hold the mouse funny to avoid accidentally doing the wrong click because your other finger is resting on the other side of the mouse when clicking. At least they got rid of the little ball that likes to scroll horizontally while you’re scrolling vertically and gets clogged easily.
