Idk, honestly. On one hand, they’re on the clear path to enshitify android into a wannabe walled garden. On the other hand, the bootloader is still unlockable and relockable, and I personally liked what they did with pixel 10 in terms of repair ability

These fuckers don’t let you unlock the bootloader, so they can burn for all I care. So far, google have the best record, then oneplus, fairphone and alike (easy to unlock the bootloader, no point or ability to relock with custom keys), then mb xiaomi (beg corporate overlords for the ability to unlock the bootloader on YOUR FUCKING PHONE) and slmsung (loose the option to unlock the bootloader on newer firmware versions, loose security features on older ones), and then huawei/crapple who don’t let you unlock the bootloader at all

Reminds me of a thought experiment, which, with some assumptions, calculated that the final solution while preparing a homeopathic “medicine” contains more Hitler’s piss than whatever the active ingredient was originally. Y’know, in case the fact that, in quite a few of those, a molecule of said active ingredient corresponds to more molecules that are estimated to exist within the observable universe isn’t enough

Why would people use it on macos, tho? I mean, they have a somewhat proper terminal by default, so vim/emacs/helix/etc are a more or less natural choice…

Probably looks more 1337 this way 🤣

There’s a readable version in the issues, tho: https://github.com/theori-io/copy-fail-CVE-2026-31431/issues/54#issuecomment-4351460190

Noice. Hope it doesn’t mean.they want to drop manifest v2 or something.

It is, tho. Child porn, in particular.

*reticulum

I mean, given possessive pronouns (?) do a full 180 in terms of meaning once it comes to power structures (our dictator president = dictator president over us), they kinda do

Should we remind them their own department of war once published tm 31-210, that happens to have mindnumbingly simplr gun making instructions with pictures? If sb wants to make a gun and doesn’t give a fuck about laws, they’ll make it not only regardless of unenforceable restrictions, but even regardless whether or not they have a 3d printer.

Not really, compared to traditional stuff like kmsauto and whatnot: batch files = easy audit => the claims are easily verifiable

Their data centers are flammable. Just sayin’

I mean, if they ban twatter, poor pedos loose the ability to conveniently generate csam, and pedos are pretty much a (the?) protected minority nowadays. Arguably, also applies to nazis, but assuming they can read is a stretch, so they can simply use any note taking app instead

4get / araa / degoog

<C-v>4j:s/element/container/g 🤷

I’m more of a funk guy, but I agree with the sentiment

Yeah, 8.1 took like 800 megs ootb, while 10 wanted about 3 gigs to itself (not sure about earlier versions, tho; mb enshitification happened gradually)

this is false

So far

Applies anything too “smart” for its own good. Too many cases of those having obvious backdoors like trying to reverse ssh home, not to mention stupidest vulnerabilities imaginable nobody fixes
