GrapheneOS doesn't solve the attestation problem though. If you compile it from source, the attestation still breaks (namely, you have to convince vendors that use attestation to trust your key). In practice, it does not allow you to

Strange page, it keeps repeating that there are 11 features and then lists four or five, thrice over, and all can be summarised as "device access for competitors' AI voice assistants and dependencies thereof". Then there&#x27

The API is tied to a Google account though. You can't simply install an app on Android and have Android tell it what the user's age is, it has to first have google maps, youtube, play services, etc. installed and you need to make

I have the inverse, not wanting a v2 but a v0.5 that's 80% of the result for 20% of the price! Okay, it's Apple so it'll never be a good price, but conceptually right? From what I hear, I'd probably be happy with the v1,

How would that help? It never says water, always steam, and it needs to get in all crevices evenly which afaik is easier with a gas than a liquid. If the steam condenses to water (for example due to raising its boiling point above the autoc

Can't imagine; then the figure should be much higher. If the source had agreed with the claim, I wouldn't have trouble believing 7 in 10 people in the USA get told to take at least one set of antibiotics a year (ageing population,

There seems to be some original research in the post as well though. I'm not assuming they faked their test results or anything at all. I think the article is worth the read, just yeah this (if the replies and I are not reading it wron

Non-native speaker here. I hadn't noticed there are two words for what seems like the same thing. Is there a difference between a water boiler and a water cooker?

I didn't know pressure is used in sterilisation. Trying to look up why that helps, the Wikipedia article on autoclaves does not explain why but says it uses 1 bar, which would be equivalent to ambient pressure (atmosphere at sea level

But your bank needs to be in Germany, Belgium, France, or "all of Europe". When you select the latter, my Dutch bank isn't shown I also have a shared account in Germany, but paying with that doesn't work either. It shows

I struggle with that argument. I feel the same way but remind myself that I find art stupid (the blue line on a blank canvas worth x millions because of who made it and what their story is or something) and this seems like the same thing.
