IMO it depends on who ends up being responsible for fraud and insufficient funds. It sounds like FedNow will provide liquidity for instant settlement but the page doesn't make it clear what happens if the sender somehow has a insuffici

The real issue is Sony has many exclusives which gives Microsoft a better case (despite the judge saying it's NOT about Sony). It certainly harms consumers, so I don't see how the court still approved this especially with the judg

QubesOS is very cool but I've always thought it'd cool/better if it was a patchset or repo on top of an existing distro like Archlinux or NixOS. I think that would be useful so you could adopt features from QubesOS individual

Supposedly newer Snapdragon chips should get 4 years of security and Android OS compatibility from Qualcomm. I wonder when that 4 years starts because if it takes a year for phones to use a new chip, then it's still more like 3 years.

I think all the Pixel devices had at least 3 years of security updates at least from the US release date. There may have been a few variants that released later in the year so they technically had less. At least now now with Google's o

I'd say almost all, maybe 80-90%. WINE is a pretty great compatibility layer for anything Windows and there's large emulation community for the majority of consoles going pretty far back. luckily the older and more obscure the gam

For home labs, NixOS is the easy recommendation if you are up for it. It really does just work once you understand it and get over the initial bootstrap of a single machine. I'd say it's easier than k8s and can also manage physica

The real concern is not the loss of the AOSP apps but the lack of new but mandatory features in AOSP and even more undocumented APIs. For example, RCS only works with Google messenger and there's no sign of that expanding (unless your

What's really strange is Reddit could have a good app because they just bought the most popular iOS client, Alien Blue, back in 2014. I still can't understand why they would buy a perfectly good app just to replace it.
