It's always possible to just go to dts directory in latest Linux kernel, and just look for what's enabled on SoC or board level, for a quick apprisal of level of mainline support. You will not catch all the details this way, drive

My first impulse is to say that some languages have better SNR on the internet. (less garbage autogenerated or SEO content compared to useful information)

It would be ridiculous for cloudflare to discuss privacy issues. ;-)

Ah cloudflare. But who will protect us against cloudflare??? It's a privacy violating proxy after all.

Not rummors. It's certain that Israel is using AI in war. IDF has massive contracts with american companies to provide AI services for variety of purposes, and confirms its use itself: https://apnews.com/article/is

It does not. It just invents a bunch of straw men, and then mocks them.

Not sure what audience he is talking to. Experts deal with a lot more issues that sit between choosing a good password + not falling for phishing and "giving up because mossad". The terminology that he sprinkles about suggests the

When I realized that, after buying my first Rpi (2B), that was the last Rpi I ever bought. :) Thankfully, pretty much everyone else just uses U-Boot.

It's not a dependency for Linux boot at all. You can do well with serial port alone, as anyone who brought up eg. an ARM SoC in Linux will attest to. Also it's not very interesting either. At simplest, Linux just needs to take a p

I didn't even notice anything was wrong today. :) Looks like we're well disconnected from the US internet infra quasi-hegemony.

He did not fold the battery in this case. It's different. I'd be surprised if he did one test where the battery folded 90° or more does not vent.

That's why you don't fake it. You steal it.

Pinephone still is, and is set to be produced for next 3 years, as promissed in 2018.

Yes, you can first validate the buffer, to know it contains valid JSON, and then you can work with pointers to beginings of individual syntactic parts of JSON, and have functions that decide what type of the current element is, or move to t

Linux based distributions solve this by not being a monoculture, no? Pandering to the masses would be in the form of specific desktop environment, and maybe specific distribution integrating it well with all kinds of desktop software. Nothi

Yeah, very cool! Interestingly, Pinephone is in the almost good intersection of hackable and portable: :) https://www.crowdsupply.com/sutajio-kosagi/precursor

And? Hm, btw, what idiot flags link to sources that show that another idiot is arguing there's no genocide based on data linearly extrapolated from pre-genocide population growth?

No it does not. Website knows the secret key, it just is not supposed to store it (user has to trust that the website stores just salt and not the derived secret key): https://fidoalliance.org/specs/fido-v2.0-rd-2018070

Nice. My wishlist also includes something similar looking with Luckfox Pico Mini + small OLED for displaying info about requests (via USB), to authorize various crypto operations with secret material stored on the device. :)

Cheaper, with integrated display, battery, touchscreen, working software, and nice form factor for the use case, sane fully open bootloader and firmware, full documentation for everything, much more power efficient.

None of this is a problem. FIDO2 works only with websites that support it.

I think my dream password manager currently is a Pinephone with a special custom UI that allows for managing and securing a list of accounts/passwords that can type them out via USB HID keyboard gadget when prompted. No way to prompt i

Nothing that the user can trust, though. Only way to upload sensitive data is to encrypt it yourself, while handling all the secret key material yourself, and then upload the result. You can't trust the website, when it has access to t
