Uh, if they want to use ROCm (kinda like CUDA, but for AMD), they do have to install it manually. It is available for some distros, so that hopefully shouldn't be a problem.

737-300, so not a new plane. Don't think this has much to do with the current Boeing problems. Probably maintenance issues at the charter firm, or pilot error.

It has been many years since I've used an OS without full disk encryption, so I can't really compare, but I have a Windows Partition for some proprietary software that doesn't like Wine on my PC, and it is really smooth. Might be because it's on a NVME SSD, though.

Well, it kinda does. If you choose to print your keys, you can use print to file and safe them to the encrypted drive, if you really want to for some reason.

Meh, Reuters, which is pretty much the mainstream western source, has been relatively good on calling out Israel, and even funded an independent investigation that found that the IDF probably purposefully shelled one of their journalists.

Doesn't mean that having a wider variety of sources isn't still good, of course.

Was that in question? I thought it was clear from the beginning that it does pretty much everything in the cloud.

Guess that makes sense, but I think the ones you cited are mostly like that because they where planned before international airplane travel started to really pick up. Might be wrong though.

Uh, I understand the sentiment, but the model doesn't know anything. And it's legit really hard to differentiate between factual things and random bullshit it made up.

I mean, they have the space, and I don't think a few more runways are going to make much of a dent in Dubai's climate balance sheet.

They seem to point at the qualcomm privacy policy to show what's being collected. It does seem strange that they're not analysing the packets themselves, especially since they're claiming the data is unencrypted. The article is quite sensationalist, probably to help sell their very expensive (one might dare saying overpriced) Pixels with preinstalled Graphene.

It's still good to keep in mind that qualcomm seems to be collecting personalised data, which they'd likely hand over to US intelligence or law enforcement if requested to, and that at least some custom roms come with the proprietary packages that facilitate this.

I'm not talking about the CPU itself. If I remember correctly, phones with Snapdragon CPUs usually have packages from qualcomm installed, and there have been reports about them sending data to qualcomm.

And if it's one with a Snapdragon CPU, the NSA probably knows too. And while China is rather authoritarian, and I'd be worried if I lived there, currently I'm more worried about surveillance by a government that has more influence on the country I live in, and likely shares data with my countiries intelligence services.

Which of course doesn't mean I like the thought they might be doing mass surveillance of people.
