No one does, it's a side effect of another feature.

Sure screw Microsoft, but inpout is dead and blocked by the vulnerable driver blacklist, so it's crazy that official RGB software is still using it.

If you're looking for alternatives but stuck on Windows: OpenRGB doesn't use inpout since 0.9 or even winring0 since 1.0rc2, and works on Linux if you ever plan on switching.

Not to wreck your joke, but certificates have a starting date on them too, so the epoch also won't work.

i have an issue where google tracks me

How did you confirm that?

My immediate thought is they're just tracking your IP address, though Tor should've mitigated that I believe.

I don't see how a Framework laptop would be any different to any other.

You can try some fingerprinting tests, and see what they find: https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/

Yep, here's my spicy one next to my new one:

If you got your laptop before a certain BIOS version, you've got an extra year of warranty on the battery: BIOS update required to prevent premature aging of 61Wh battery

Also kernel 6.12 has support until 2035, so it's not like anyone running these CPUs would be missing out on security updates for a while.

What type of SSD? NVMe usually has a special instruction which will reset each whole NAND chip, and usually takes a few seconds. I think SATA does as well, but it's not commonly supported.

I found a post on the forum:

This is only their old build system which they weren't using themselves, the rest of the OS will remain open source. However they also said some worrying stuff about including "proprietary pieces of the OS".

That guy is a tech reviewer on YouTube, it probably makes for good content, and he may not have even bought it.

Possibly mTLS, which you'd configure in your reverse proxy. You could email them the certificate and instructions on installing it. I believe for Chromium browsers on Windows you basically just double click the cert and click through the wizard. Firefox I know has a thing in the settings for importing the cert. Android you just tap on the cert and make sure it opens with 'Certificate Installer' if it gives you the option.

This isn't about Firefox, and there are zero mentions of Firefox in the article. This is about Mozilla screwing over their volunteers by replacing their human written translations, with inaccurate machine translations written by a closed source LLM.

Someone would say something like 'you can unlock a secret page on Facebook, just press F12 and paste this in', and the snippet would upload the victim's session token to the scammer's server. So that they can use the account to promote a crypto scam or whatever.

But that means that someone else's server is used whenever you leave your home network.

I'm pretty sure syncthing does NAT hole punching, so someone else's server is only used for initial connection, after that, your data goes directly to your devices.

It's infrared, it's designed to work without a distracting white flash going off for every car, just an infrared flash. As it's outside our normal colour spectrum, it's also why seat belts appear white instead of the normal grey.

I've seen white flashes on these types of cameras in China, and it's quite creepy, infrared flashes are only creepy once you know it's there.

If you aren't already aware, Dave Plummer isn't who he seems:

He's also abused YouTube's DMCA system to remove that video a few times.

That's the OPs reply, not the AI.

You can snapshot them independently. E.g. I snapshot / on every update and boot, /home every boot, and temporary file directories such as /tmp & /var/tmp don't get snapshot at all and are also mounted with nodev,nosuid,noexec flags.

Forky is from Toy Story 4, but I'm sure there's still more original Toy Story characters to use, let alone more movies to come.

Fun fact: there actually is an IP version 5, and the reason we went from v4 to v6.

Funny thing, time.is uses Cloudflare, and I only found out because of the outage.
