It left a sour taste for many people when they gutted features from the YouTube app to put them behind the paywall. You used to be able to play videos with the screen off. But it is now required to be on to play videos, unless you have prem

I agree. I want to support YouTube. But it feels like we're having to pay a premium to not get shown ads, not an equivalent price. I don't agree with you about "most of the web". There are MANY places that will not allow

I picked one up a few weeks ago from Digikey. They had over 2000 in stock at the time.

I believe that there is a lawsuit involving the third party devices as well. Pretty interesting saga.

If you have lost physical control of your device long enough for hardware to be replaced, you should consider it compromised and untrustworthy if you are working at that level of attack risk. And they absolutely could be done at scale. If m

I watched an interesting YouTube short last night from a guy who replaced an iPhone 14 back glass, but after doing so was no longer about to take photos with flash. He was able to determine that the problem was because he didn't take o

From all the computers that I've seen with intrusion detection on by default, they only give you a warning from what I've seen.

This makes absolutely 0 sense. Bitlocker cannot be setup on Windows 10 Home edition.

The current Supreme Court and their fixation on originalism would strongly disagree with you.

One could argue that the pittance that musicians get paid for streams is really them getting paid for their content getting marketed for them. This leads to concerts, where they get paid more for performing their content. Yes, I agree with

I would agree with you, if every Show HN was from a single massive company that is a central point of failure.

> No idea. Should I care? If you actually want more sales you probably want to know a bit about where they came from. To know which efforts are bringing in customers. Basic marketing.

From my understanding, this is what TOR did for some time. They tried to make it look as close as possible to HTTPS.

I remember having an issue with a Nexus that I had a while back. I had a hard time getting the screen to turn on and stay on. Turns out, I had misapplied the screen protector and the proximity sensor was thinking that it was in a situation

They do, kinda. You have to go looking for it. In my testing only provides the latest few videos, not the entire back catalog. But I have a naive understanding of the RSS protocol I didn't see how to get more because they didn't e

From my understanding, this would put you at a significant legal risk. Part of the DMCA is a counter suit, and the courts would seriously frown on this kind of tactic. It would seriously negatively impact your case, and could get you labele

I don't necessarily think it's "I trust you bro", I think it's more "Section 230 requires us to delist any content immediately until a counter claim is filed to maintain safe harbor protections". But I&#x2

I've seen them. The ones I have seen are more like pins on the map for locations that clearly say Ad on them.

It's also illegal in the US as well. Just less protections, and thus harder to prove.

I don't think tracking by the OS itself has anything to do with side-loading.

by ixwt 3y ago
I think your proposed attack vector would look more like this: Scammer: Madam, go into your settings and enable side loading. It will then connect to your bank account and I will… Madam: Okay uuuuh... A big popup came up... It says... That

You make a valid devil's advocate position! Personally, its about pushing back on the ever increasing tide of not owning your own device, and using it as you see fit. I just can't understand why so many are against a feature that

What harm is there to you if sideloading is enabled?

To be clear: nobody else should have the option to not have to use the walled garden on devices they purchased because... you prefer the walled garden? If there is side loading forced to be allowed on Apple devices, there is nobody making y

Discord and Slack are just IRC with a bunch more features. The IRC protocol just stagnated and never improved (because it's a function of it's time). I believe there was talk of a new version with more features, but that honestly
