I believe regulations require that everything you put in or on food is technically editable. Like the paper stickers on bread or produce. They are disgusting, but if you or your child accidentally eats them, they are fine.
There's software that does this already. Right?
Does this include the right to repair software (= replace stock ROM) and access to security updates?
Websites built for Chrome do work in Firefox.
Just guessing. The phone is ear-marked for a target market, e.g. Africa. If it connects to an American network without roaming and without ever having been to Africa, it's clear that the phone was not sold through 'official' distribution channels.
The "I'm that desperate" batch.
OK. Now copy all other EU laws.
Just a showerthought:
Maybe that's part of a much bigger generational divide. Maybe Wikipedia is one of the last bastions of the old pre-commercialization internet. "From the people for the people", but actually from people whose hobby it is to spend time in front of a computer screen.
BBS systems, usenet, forums, early websites, slashdot, open source, Wikipedia, early reddit, ...
in contrast to: ConpuServe, AOL, Yahoo, Facebook, Amazon, Tiktok
Editing early Wikipedia waa easy, fun, and meant something. You freed information from behind a paywall. Free as in speech.
Now, everything is free as in beer ("some restrictions apply") and editing a wiki is no longer easy when you grew up swiping an iphone, not hacking a unix terminal. This, plus admin culture.
This whole table raises multiple questions. I guess I'll never hire someone mentioning comptia on their cv
Actual answer over circle-jerk speculation: To be legal in EU, they must offer one option without required (=forced) consent to tracking. When you pay, you can actually opt-out from any measure that require consent under GDPR.
All European publishers do this. They don't want your money and probably don't care much about the tiny minority that actually pays for freedom from tracking. This option exist to create the illusion of choice.
Is this a declaration of war? Against NATO??
The plan is to give the source Code to paying customers. This is gpl-compliant.
The x permission on directories is exactly for this purpose. You can use the directory. You cannot read (requires rx), you cannot write (w), but you can 'cd' and operate on files in the directory.
This is important, you can lock someone out from a directory tree buy not giving them 'x' on the root. So, if your home is rwx------, no one but the owner can do anything in your home. This is effective even if some files and subdirectories have less restrictive permissions.
So what exactly are 3rd party cookies?
I'm on a.com, that is what's shown in the address bar.
The page includes a resource a.com/image.png. A request the server will include cookies from a.com. That's a 1st party cookie. Correct?
The page includes a resource b.com/image.png. The request will not include cookies from a.com; this was always the case. b.com can however set their own cookies. Since we are on a.com, cookies from b.com are 'third party'. Correct?
It gets interesting when we navigate to c.com and c.com includes b.com/image.png, a tracking pixel we have seen before on a.com.
Without 3rd party cookie protection, b.com sees the cookie they set previously while on a.com. This will now be blocked. Correct?
Now explain this in a Javascript world.
We ignore them, mostly. You cannot miss what you don't know.
There are plenty of options however to access software not available natively. Both VMs and Remote Desktop solution work for a wide range applications. Web-based solution can be as good as desktop programs.
So many casual applications are now either web-based or on your (not FOSS) phone, so for my personal use the thought of using Windows has never crossed my mind. Professionally, I resort to remote Windows or a Mac.
Obs?
Forget wine. Virtual Machines or Remote Desktop work very well for generic Windows software. For graphics-heavy stuff, you need to learn whether this works for you.
Again?
You are not wrong, but you we should understand what class of attacks we are protecting against. Will biometrics stop your maid from using your device? Probably less. Will it stop the FBI? Not so sure.
Now, you may say, an FBI raid is not what you worry about on a daily basis. Agree.
If you are trying to keep the photos on your device safe from snooping, your good. Attacker needs the device and your fingerprint.
When we talk online accounts, I'd count device+fingerprint as one factor. Sure, the maid from the example above can't login into your gmail without your fingerprint, but most attacks are online. Your device sends a token to gmail, a cookie, a String; that's like a password. One factor.
Technically, it's slightly better than a password, because this token can be short-lived (although often it's not), could be cryptographic signature to be used exactly once (although...), you cannot brute-force guess the token.... But IF the token leaks, the attacker has full access (or enough to cause damage).
That's why I would suggest an independent second factor, such as password. Yes, a password. Not for your daily routine (biometrics+device is much better), but maybe for high-risk operations.
But sure what you 'heard'. VNC essentially streams a video from either a real or a virtual screen. This has worked very well for all 2D applications for decades.
It's not fancy, does nothing special, and that's why it works. You need sufficient bandwith for the desired quality, but on LAN you'll be fine
What's usually problematic is fancy UI stuff that relies on a local GPU, which you don't have. I usually disable animations.
Disclaimer: Have not used VNC in 10 years.
Also, many thinks you ask for are out of scope for VNC: clipboard, drag and drop, file access. VNC does none of those; just screen and input (keyboard, mouse, ...). Not sure about audio.
You got all the good infos already, but I'll stress:
The headline under the table says compression formats
FeedMe
I did. Occasionally visit old.reddit.com put of nostalgia, but never logged in, never controbute. It's not as busy here, but i like it. Lemmy has an OG nerd feeling to it.
The alternative to multiple cores is a single core that runs faster. We tried this and hit a limit. So, it's many cores, now.
I don't get this argument. Most business don't own any property. The office buildings are rented.
Point for you, root is special.
Hope that never try to shutdown IMAP.
I heared people love worldwide-radio. What's so cool about it? And why as a browser plugin? This could be a stand-alone app or website.
That was less than 24hours ago. Let's just wait what happens.
Either Microsoft buys Kenya or Sam Altman is promoted to King of Narnia.
Now THIS is a GPL-violation or at least a serious concern and asshole move.
I don't use wired headphones with my phone anymore since it doesn't have a 3.5mm jack, but I miss that i cannot plug my headphone quickly in a laptop's 3.5mm jack quickly.
I like that binary nature of cables. When physically connected they work. No fiddling with Bluetooth menus.
Once?
Excellent work.
Those printers are definitely gold for heavy users. Cheap ink. If you don't use it a lot, would the ink dry and damage the printer? Or evaporate and vanish?
Honest question because imk cartridges dry out all the time.
Which is a sensible policy, generally speaking.
Just need another sun on the opposite side
“our systems come with 16gb as standard, which feels like 32gb on windows.”

Ignore my ignorance. Are you saying the aircrafts track where they are going by calculating their position from gyroscope data? And this is more precise than GPS?
That's like using the accelaration sensors in your phone to navigate. Or sailing with compass and nautical maps.
Possible. Tech isn't even that novel. But still impressive.
Ignoring gender, are job fairs overrun by job seekers now? Is it that bad?
