Sadly there would still be wars, as some see “the other side losing” as a win. Even if both sides are completely destroyed.

“But it looks bad and could be bad for the battery!”

Every other wireless mouse has it in the front, Apple has no valid reason to leave it at the bottom.

Was yes. They have introduced an “internal sdk” into all their clients with no available source code. That’s what everyone’s complaining about. They call it a “packaging bug”, but in reality Bitwarden clients are just no longer open source.

VR “works”, but as someone who uses it, I can’t reccomend it for now.

Compatibility is wildly different between headsets. And no matter which route you take, you will need to tinker and troubleshoot. There is no plug and play solution right now.

If you want to plug in your VR headset, and just play some games, stick to Windows for now. If you’re fine tinkering around, there’s always SteamVR, but also check out Envision and Monado.

As for desktop games, you can find what works on ProtonDB. Most games work fine, with the exception of games with kernel level anti-cheat.

https://manjarno.pages.dev is a good read

SteamOS is not the same as its base Arch Linux. If you want something slightly easier but still Arch-based, try EndeavourOS (but please not Manjaro).

If you have the time, try switching on your own terms within the next year. It’s almost guaranteed you’ll run into issues, but trying to dual-boot now rather than later gives you all the time you need to figure it out before MS forces you on Windows 11.

DuckDuckGo’s webbrowser is somewhat unique, in the sense that it isn’t its own browser at all. It’s a “WebView”, using the OS built-in webbrowser with a coat of paint.

This means it’s Blink/Chromium on Android and Windows, and WebKit on iOS and macOS.

Yes. There’s only 3 major browsers. Chromium (Chrome), Firefox, WebKit (Safari). Nearly every other webbrowser is a fork of one of these, most are forks of Chromium, including Opera. As such, most webbrowsers will be affected by the change.

Still doesn’t make a VPN the “magic all in one solution” it claims to be. And SNI is encrypted on newer servers using encrypted client hello (ECH).

In terms of privacy, you’re switching around which entity gets to see a ton of details. Do you trust random public wifi enough, given modern security standards? Or do you trust a VPN company more, despite false advertising?

Use HTTPS and DoH (Becoming a default on some Android versions), and the average person will be just fine without a VPN.

The actual cheaters completely bypassed the new anti-cheat in about 6 hours. They had to update their cheats a bit, but are otherwise essentially unaffected. Linux users, Steam Deck users, and people who don’t want to give a single game full hardware access, are all affected. None of those can play GTA:Online anymore, unless they mod the game to bypass the anti-cheat, which can be seen as cheating in itself, and could result in a ban.

The ddos attacks are likely being orchestrated by a small group of people or even an individual, it probably does not represent the vast majority of affected users.

I took a shortcut when typing that, quoting the OP instead of further explaining. It is definitely possible to visualize 4 datapoints, but not 4 spatial dimensions. The only way to do so is to project to lower dimensions or take a lower dimension slice and display that. That works for 2D slices/projections of 3D objects because we already have a full understanding of 3D. It does not work for 2D projections of 4D objects, similar to how “flatlanders” couldn’t make sense of a 2D or 1D projection of a 3D object.

Wasted my time watching this. 23 minute video that repeats itself so often there’s only ~30 seconds of information. It feels very AI-generated. And it is not possible to “visualize 4D”, the video does not prove otherwise.

They do make other Android-based devices like the Meta Quest line of VR headsets, and Facebook was just an example, any other OEM fits in that statement as well, like Samsung, Google, OnePlus, etc.

That indicator and the permission system are provided by the OS on your phone. If you trust your OEM not to abuse it, then it works. If the company that made your device is facebook, neither of those features prevent facebook from listening in 24/7.

Louis Rossman’s video describes his behavior in public spaces accurately: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0

His activity on GrapheneOS repositories, issues, etc. indicates he’s still very active in development and in the community.

is clearly on the spectrum in some way

This is not an excuse to behave the way he does.

Very good decision from him to withdraw from social media

He hasn’t, still on github, still on HN.

“Limited patience” is understandable, but the behavior of the GrapheneOS dev is completely different. I’ve personally interacted with them not too long ago, and nothing has changed since the public accusations from a year ago.

His github says otherwise
