   I find it ironic that this does not render in Firefox Focus.

   Swordfish is right at the bottom of my realistic-hacker-movies list.

   I think sneakers was the successor to either wargames or hackers. Either way, great movie with a realistic story and minimal hacker stereotypes.

   So after this event Nvidia did a press release or something similar when they promised to do better. Not sure if much came out of that thought.

   Don't remove posts. Mark them as lies and don't let the writer modify or delete them. Once people see they have been upvoting lies, some might reconsider next time.

   Someone please make a front end to Reddit that removes all garbage.

   You are trying to pick up a fight where there is none. Phones today have to do much more than phoned 15 years ago, hence worse battery life. Just compare the battery life of the 808 and the N9.

    Do not ignore that the smartphone has a big power hungry display and is always connected and syncing tons of stuff in the background. Also, 4G drains battery much faster than 3G.

    Where does the 5 years figure come from? I've always thought Chromebooks are supported 7-8 years.

    :) Just an anecdote, and probably more on topic: Some western reporter changed her WeChat (Chinese chat app & more) password to f kCCP. 10 minutes later her account was deleted.

    That would explain a thing or two about iCloud.

    Lenovo almost always uses crappy displays. That said, not everyone need color accuracy. It probably works just fine for my usage.

    China and GitHub have a kind of history. GitHub has been blocked multiple times by CCP for repos related to Tibet, Taiwan and Hong Kong. And there have been a few large-scale ddos attacks very openly coordinated from China. So I guess it wa

    You are being paranoid ;) There have been apps actually doing this on both Android and iOS (e.g. the Spanish football app). But everyone have been quick to plug this hole. Android now warns you if this happens, and Google has thrown out app

    Maybe not an Android killer, but something to help Android improve in the long run? I'm getting tired of Google making all decisions. With each release they are adding more useless functions that by some odd chance helps them access mo

    All things equal, I think I would go with them just because of this: https://aisler.net/help/getting-started/what-are-your-enviro... Chinese PCB fabs are extremely dirty.

    I think Aisler is also sponsoring LibrePCB and accepts their CAD files (i.e. no messing around with gerbers). I'm definitely testing them for my next boards.

    I think Qualcomm XPUs can be used as barriers (pretty much the same way SMMUs are used). XPUs + hypervisor should be enough, assuming Qualcomm enables them and configures them correctly.

    I am fine with this schedule. Unless someone is actively exploiting devices I would prefer a well tested patch to a rushed patch. Note that this whole issue is due a previously rushed patch.

    There is definitely memory protection in the modem. If nothing else because the code is so horrible it crashes all the time. Three is even a hypervisor for hexagon but I don't think it is used.

    At least the GPU stuff is getting some scrutiny. Their modem code is a security nightmare and outside Qualcomms modem teams nobody is allowed to see it.

    Maybe you have not used Android lately? I have two phones and a tablet, all mid-range devices from 3 different vendors and all are on Android 10 with at least August patches. Edit: both phones are also more than 2 years old.

    The point is that if we could move the pieces of key schedule around freely it would increase the complexity of the tool significantly since it will have to match each potential block against a number of other potential blocks.
