Then it'll probably shock you even more when you realise that this thing is hosted on Github, a site owned by Microsoft... :)

... for now. They've already replaced the old Notepad with a bloated UWP version, so it probably won't be long before it starts sending telemetry as well.

IT guy here, the NFC thing isn't really a concern (NFC doesn't work that way) or for that matter, any other wireless technology, as it'll need to authenticate with your phone somehow. If you can somehow simply scan data from a phone without any form of authentication, that would be a massive security hole - something that would be patched by the vendors real quick. Also, if something like that were possible then the TSA/FBI wouldn't have any issues pulling data from locked phones. Think of all the times you've had to put your phone thru the xray machines at the airports. Also see the case of FBI vs Apple for instance.

The other issues you've mentioned are valid though. Heck my Galaxy Fold won't even fit in that slot.

it is a stupidly simple working demo of DRM circumvention

A much more simpler method is to just use Streamfab. No need for nVidia, a second PC etc.

Nice! Loved the manga, can't wait to see it animated.

In my experience (W11 + Fedora on UEFI Thinkpad), I've seen it actually get rid of the Fedora entry from the UEFI boot list. Reinstalling GRUB from chroot didn't fix it, so I used EasyUEFI and manually added the Fedora EFI file to the boot list and that worked.

So it wasn't simply changing the boot order, it actually nuked Fedora from the UEFI boot list.

Well, if you're using Mullvad's malware/ad filters etc there's really no need for a PiHole in the first place (unless you're doing some funky custom filtering).

Sure, I mean it's not a big deal. But it felt a bit odd considering macOS and Apple Silicon usually flies in pretty much every other task, so the lengthy update just felt a bit out of place.

Just upgraded my M1 Air, loving the new animated wallpapers and lock screen.

My only pet peeve is that the offline phase of the upgrade took a whole 20 minutes - something which no other OS requires - yes, even for Windows, the offline phase of an upgrade is usually in single digits.

So this is something Apple definitely needs to improve upon.

Mullvad's DNS. It's available for non-subscribers as well, and their privacy policy explicitly claims they do not log DNS requests in any way. https://mullvad.net/en/help/no-logging-data-policy/

They support both DoT and DoH, and also have various servers for blocking ads, trackers etc (if you wish to use them): https://github.com/mullvad/dns-blocklists

I that case, check out Fedora CoreOS.

I asked Google Bard whether it thought Web Environment Integrity was a good or bad idea. Surprisingly, not only did it respond that it was a bad idea, it even went on to urge Google to drop the proposal.

I'm on a Galaxy Fold 4 and I was expecting Sync to show posts in two columns (like how Sync for Reddit did), but it seems like the second column is for comments only? Anyone know if it's possible to show posts in the second column instead of comments? I tried playing with the tablet options in the settings, but couldn't get it to display two columns of content.

Heilos pads designed for an easy to use alternative to thermal paste. Thermalright rates the thermal conductivity of its Heilos pads at 8.5W/mK, which is equivalent to the thermal conductivity of Arctic's MX-4/MX-5 - also spec'd at 8.5W/mK, which is considered to be a quite decent level of performance for inexpensive pastes.

A cautionary tale for a world racing into renewables: The large majority of mini-grids in India no longer work, an environmental group found.

About 4,000 solar mini-grids have been installed in India, of which 3,300 are government financed and owned. Only 5% of the government grids are operational.

Last spring, Amazon launched its live audio-streaming platform, Amp, which aims to reinvent radio with “an infinite dial of shows.” Amp offers users access to a vast, built-in music library to create their own DJ sets with. No need to buy songs or flirt with the DMCA, just make a playlist, go live, talk in between tracks, follow the chat and even invite callers. A little over a year later, Amp is finally available on Android.

AMD claims that the new Ryzen 9 7945X3D with a whopping 144MB cache is the fastest mobile gaming processor on the planet, and that it's more than 15 percent faster than the Ryzen 9 7945HX on average. It has 16 cores, 32 threads, up to 5.4 Ghz boost speeds and 55W+ TDP. The CPU is built on the Zen 4 architecture.

If you were holding out on buying the WH-1000XM5 because it lacked multipoint LDAC support, well now may be a good time to get one.

"Good" as in something that looks just as good as an RH cert on my CV. I was considering LFCS, but I haven't come across any job listings mention LFCS (at least, not where I live).
