I used it for years, owning multiple phones, up to 1-2 years ago, then switched to Graphene OS and never looked back. It is an interesting project, with a very innovative UI and very close to a true GNU/Linux on your phone. But ultimat

Yes, the free version can be used indefinitely. The latest device you can use with full support is Sony Xperia 10 III, released in 2021. There have been no further releases; the project never really took off and unfortunately it seems that

It isn't. You can just use a VPN.

And security, don't forget that. Proper app isolation on Linux is still very tricky, with many competing approaches in Apparmor/Selinux/Snap/Flatpak/Docker, all complicated to set up and use. The consequence is that

The helicopter and satellite tricks though are legal, right? They do not involve any leaks from insiders.

If you set the limit to 40 years it's a bit arbitrary, but you can still catch some of the late production of Asterix and Obelix and the Smurfs. For movies, Jean-Claude Van Damme is in, but he made most of his career in the US. I am no

I disagree here. You don't want to allow people to review their own code. That defeats the purpose of a review. No matter if he's a superstar, have someone else look at his code so that he doesn't get sloppy with security pra

I think it's because OP does not want to hardcode the dimension `n=3`, but write only code that works for all possible matrix sizes just by changing `a` and `b`.

IPv4, technically, is another 32-bit bomb, but that's not Linux-specific.

My state-of-art bubblesort implementation is also superhuman at sorting numbers.

Is there a website where one can see some open source contribution metrics? I found https://opensourceindex.io/ , but the absolute numbers do not tell much by themselves; of course the biggest companies contribute more[1].

You can self-host Languagetool and use it as a Chrome/Firefox extension. The extension talks to a Languagetool server via HTTP, and takes its address as a configurable option. So you just run the local server, and pass localhost:8080 a

It's sad that we have come to a point where people frown upon a company that makes a product and sells it, without luring their customers in with monthly subscriptions.

Good luck. In math, it's extremely difficult to teach the mental concepts and critical thinking. Unless you have a gifted teacher, most schools just teach you rote memorization and solving countless duplicate problems that use the same

I think the point is "We'd rather you left them where they were after you found them and notified a museum, so that they could be dug out with all due care by professional archeologists".

Pretty simple. If you don't make it illegal, they will do it.

I hate the anti-responsive design of this page: I zoom in (ctrl-plus in Firefox), and the text gets smaller.

Yes. Microsoft is already siphoning data everywhere they can, why should I give them more? Most people have their real name and e-mail there because they use it to sign code in trusted repositories, so it's easy to combine these data w

Steve Ballmer's net worth is 120 billion dollars, so, assuming each game takes 30 seconds, it would take you 1.6 million years to win it all.

Wouldn't it make more sense to compute a single number of operations that is sufficient to obtain any possible order, for any number of cards in your library smaller than 60? In this way one would have to memorize just a single number

The point is that the app displays data on the transaction. If the phishing site tries to trigger a hidden transaction (or modify one that you are entering), you can review amount, recipient, and description _on the app_.

How do e-ink devices work for teaching? My use case is teaching mathematics: streaming my notes to a class using a projector, and recording them. I am reasonably satisfied with a Surface tablet, apart from the lack of Linux; do you think th

In the EU these hardware keyfobs are now forbidden for banking because they are considered less secure than app-based 2FA. The reason is that an app-based confirmation gives you the opportunity to review the transaction you are confirming;

If you replace a cookie for eviladcompany.com with one for eviladcompany.domain1.com, there is still an advantage: that this is not shared with eviladcompany.domain2.com, so eviladcompany cannot know that it's the same person visiting
