I haven't really heard it being used like that, always heard e-paper being used as the specific e-ink displays and never anything else. The only time I've seen the (in my mind) confused messaging is on Pebble's own website, I

It's a very minor distinction, but they aren't a epaper display (low refresh rate, zero power to maintain an image), rather the technology is a sharp memory LCD (ludicrously low power, but high refresh rate). They're extremel

Probably because ssh ciphers change, telnet doesn’t, and you’re not really supposed to be internet exposing those interfaces anyway.

If it’s constant current the “refresh rate” is infinite, or zero depending how you look at it.

My example is “living off the land”, safari already has access to everything, open it and use it to communicate. Needs no permissions, bypasses little snitch entirely.

Do you go by the smell of the executable or just general vibes? Nobody has never reviewed even a tiny fraction of the software they run, closed source or open source.

It’s a false sense of security, more or less. If an application wants to talk to a C2 they don’t have to make a connection at all, just proxy a connection through something already allowed, or tunnel through DNS. Those juicy cryptocurrency

Just be aware that you’ll be stuck with wifi, or spending far more on ethernet adapters for them. If you want cheap with ethernet there’s other devices supported by Arabian in the same price range which have ethernet. It’s fun for sure to h

Sure, the cost of that goes way up though, especially if it has to emulate real world inputs like a mouse, type in a way that’s plausible, and browse a website in a way that’s not always the direct happy path.

You can get intel NUCs way cheaper if you look around, or the Lenovo mini PCs. Small clusters will never beat a decent CPU but you can probably make a cluster of old mini PCs for less than the price of one.

eBay is hyper aggressive about fingerprinting, they will catch things like it trivially. Browsers leak all sorts of information like what sockets are open on localhost, making yourself look like an actual person is very challenging to someo

It’s more or less an entire apple watch acting as a secure element, or used to be in the older models.

At the chip level there’s no difference as far as I’m aware, you just have 9 bits per byte rather than 8 bits per byte physically on the module. More chips but not different chips.

The "cost" of executing the JavaScript proof of work is fairly irrelevant, the whole concept just doesn't make sense with a pessimistic inspection. Anubis requires the users to do an irrelevant amount of sha256 hashes in slow

That's surprising, it's at least casually known that they're bio accumulative to some extent. I've joked to the techs before about gadolinium eventually accumulating enough to not be necessary if you do it with enough fr

That’s nothing to do with static electricity, it’s capacitive coupling through the safety capacitors in the power supply. The chassis sits at 90vac or so as a result, it’s not a safety issue it’s FCC compliance for emitted noise.

I have a RPP and it’s an almost device, it’s so close to good in many ways and falls flat in others. My biggest gripe with it originally was that the next and previous page gestures worked perhaps one in three attempts, which has been fixed

In some systems sort of. The esp32 encryption has a bizarre implementation where adjacent blocks in counter mode reuse the same nonce, so knowing the structure of the plaintext can directly reveal the content of some blocks.
