  • UK opens antitrust probe into Microsoft's business software

    Jump

  • They are so incredibly bad. I despise googlebut they areten times better in any field in wich they both operate.

    Microslop is forever trying to get me to do more with them. Download this,upgrade that. Dividing services across platforms

  • Microsoft BitLocker-protected drives can now be opened with just some files on a USB stick — YellowKey zero-day exploit demonstrates an apparent backdoor

  • You have just reminded me I could use this on the laptop my mother set up like five years ago and immediately forgot the password for.

  • I contacted my IT support after some suspicious activity - my screen being on middle of the night etc. and they said it was an update that they pushed and the type of update bypassed bitlocker to return to where I was which sounded like BS but they are IT so...

  • The Walls Don’t Have Ears, But Fiber Optic Does

    Jump

  • There was a demonstration of this where they had loops set up around a building simulating a network distance. They put music on a phone and walked to a distance they said was some kilometers away and were able to pick up the music without issue.

  • Sony, Nintendo grapple with memory price surge as AI boom constrains supply

    Jump

  • No they dont, they grapple with not knowing what to do now toget people buying and spending ontheir platforms

  • In all seriousness he absolutely is worse than most. He operates on more impactful sale, a third of the world is his monthly userbase. His whims hurt people.

  • Iran mulls taking full control of all 7 undersea internet cables passing through Strait of Hormuz

    Jump

  • It would be a huge interruption of service for one and then the huge cost of replacement.

    Submarine cables exist because it is superior to land when done on scale.

  • AI data centers face increasing complaints about inaudible but 'felt' infrasound — citizens complain high- and low-frequency sounds do not register on decibel meters but cause adverse health effects

    Jump

  • Jfc sounds like opportuniatic capitalists cutting corners and not caring about the populace

  • GrapheneOS says Google is making life harder for rival operating systems and devices

    Jump

  • Nah man you are not arguing in good faith. Linux has come on leaps and bounds since I first tried it in school and it is now my desktop OS. It is cumbersome but worth it. If it was only available as a terminal or CLI or whatever I would not be using it.

    At a certain point what you areadvocating isnt an alternative so much as advocacy for advocacy sake. Just telling people to leave a product is the same as saying the alternative isnt an alternative.

  • European Money Pours into Palantir

    Jump

  • Hacker News is tied to Palantir. Fuck this.

  • GrapheneOS says Google is making life harder for rival operating systems and devices

    Jump

  • But sure I could go back to te stoneage so, are you offering an alternative or not?

    Its easy to tell people to value privacy, which I do, but the reality is that to encourage privacy being adopted you need to offer or incentivise its adoption.

    It affects you if you dont, your number in my phone is scraped all the same. Your secure emails land in my insecure inbox.

  • Buy linux phone

    Try to figure out how to make it work

    Where are my apps

    Why is the camera shit?

    Profit, I can purchase stamps to communicate with those on the other side of techtopia.

    Jokes aside the curve is too steep, feature parity lacking and network effects too strong. I would like to but where is the on ramp? Do I have to go back to blurry slow cameras and no face unlock or fingerprint? NFC? Car projection? Can I get a sandboxed whatsapp?

  • GrapheneOS says Google is making life harder for rival operating systems and devices

    Jump

  • Cannot wait. Hope it has a decent camera.

    Also I'd flash that shit myself when it arrives too.

  • The reality is that they are powerful but if they were to become actice participants in some hypothetical war the governments could freeze and withold funds with the swipe of a pen.

    There are a lot of regs around the freedom of funds and stopping that if there is a legitimate national security risk. The US is doing it right now with funds provided from the EU to purchase weapons for Ukraine. The US is not fulfilling orders because they blew their load murdering innocent children in Iran.

  • Whatever it is they are selling will suck, which sucks because AI could be great. I like some of its usecases, granted that is because the alternatives are enshittified.

  • Meta Is Dying. It’s About Time.

  • Cant wait for businesses to have websites again.

  • A web page that shows you everything the browser told it without asking

    Jump

  • Ridiculously accurate forme, tried across multiple browsers.

    Gyro, screensize, battery are all causes for concern. I have firefox with ublock and ss and it was able to see all except the gpu and battery.

  • Apple’s AirPods with cameras for AI are apparently close to production

    Jump

  • Take a picture of your fridge with a better angle than your ears have.

    Use GPS.

  • Apple Faces £3 Billion UK Trial Over iCloud Lock-In Claims

  • Definitely a cause for concern, seems it wasn't a pardon though and it is being addressed.
