The key point: > Ubuntu 24.04’s kernel, which is based on (on 6.8.12), uses the old GC algorithm. Thus, the change to unix_gc does not apply (the upstream patch is for the new GC algorithm). > B…

The specific part that I consider a threat is "which would allow RPs to block you, and something that I have previously rallied against but rethinking as of late because of these situations"…

Then the malware will just wait until you want to do something legitimate that needs that, and then swap it out for its own thing.

Is it really "any" vendor, or is it just the big ones? Can you transfer your Apple passkeys to KeePassXC?

But open-source programs can always be modified to do that, so that's a terrible reason to ban open-source passkey managers. And besides, you shouldn't be forbidden from doing things with yo…

The point of passkeys is to protect against phishing and password reuse. You can't protect against local compromise, even if your passkeys are stored in something like a YubiKey, because once you…

> I read about Passkey comittee being against open source passkey managers during start of this year (can't reference it, sorry) but with open source password/key managers already support…

No, but when remote attestation reveals that you're running an OS that's not blessed by Google, the megacorps will make their apps all refuse to run on your phone. A few already do so today,…

Other automakers have recalls all the time too. Why is it that every single Tesla recall becomes national news, but virtually no recalls by other automakers ever do? (I can only think of two exception…

This question is misleading for the same reason "have you stopped beating your wife?" is. Even if a Tesla loses all power, you can still open the doors with a mechanical handle and escape.…

It's only hidden for the back doors so that it doesn't render the child safety lock useless. It's in the most obvious spot possible for the front doors.

The front doors have a way easier and more obvious way than the rear doors. In fact, for the front doors it's so obvious that most passengers think it's the normal way to open the door. The …

Distinguish "really believe in the power of prayer" from believing that prayer is the only thing you should do. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parable_of_the_drowni…

This isn't just the usual "won't get updates anymore" end of support. They're going to permanently lock you out of all your data: > Microsoft 365 subscribers will no longer…

It's sad that Big Tech is guilty of censorship so often that it's now considered newsworthy when they don't censor things.

TPM and Secure Boot would be good things if there were no way to prove to third parties that you're using them, or have them configured a certain way (i.e., remote attestation). It's the fac…

Are there any sources on this other than Dan O'Dowd, who has been proven to be a liar about his previous claims of FSD failures?
