So they’re making their tag network even more useless to track stolen items. Their network is already so crippled as to be useless.


My interpretation is they wanted to use it, got denied, so used a more generic setting instead.


They’re suing him for using vaguely cyberpunk ai generated images?

As much as it seems like Musk is trying to make a real life cyberpunk dystopia, this seems a little silly.



I’ll probably get downvoted for saying this, but as a transhumanist the potential for this kind of technology is huge.

It’s expensive now, but 20 years ago it cost $2.7 billion to sequence a full human genome, now it’s around $600. Imagine a world where this process is inexpensive and easily available.


So they can save money by firing their army of nafo meat puppets?



Huawei contribute quite a bit to the linux kernel, it’s a pretty international effort.

Just the first statistics I could find showed they contributed more changesets than any other organisation https://lwn.net/Articles/915435/


Effectively just a ban on Chinese EV’s to protect American car companies that can’t keep up with them.



Do you think it’s deliberate how similar that name is to “enteral”?


The year of the ReactOS desktop?

On a serious note, I suspect the IOT version doesn’t have this requirement.


Interesting company, I considered getting their “tank” when I needed a new phone a few months ago, although I decided to go with doogee instead. As the name implies it’s rather the opposite of this.



Is it possible the scanner is just intercepting the install request, then running the apk installer from the scanner afterwards? (so Fdroid wasn’t the program installing it, but it’s still the same APK)


"Once the rockets are up, who cares where they come down?

That’s not my department, " says Wernher von Braun.



We really need to move away from the idea that a user having control over his/her device is insecure.

I can use online banking and paypal with windows logged in as administrator or GNU/Linux logged in as root[0], why shouldn’t I be able to use google wallet pay wallet with root?

[0] yes I know you shouldn’t log in as root, but that doesn’t change that you can do it.



> Away from branding announcements, HMD had a couple of more product-focused initiatives to announce. The most interesting of these is HMD Fusion, a new smartphone-style device that HMD is pitching as a DIY platform for tinkerers. Like Moto Mods, but you have to make and program your own accessories. >Essentially, HMD’s aim with the Fusion is to offer the kinds of tinkering possibilities of a Raspberry Pi, but in the form factor of a smartphone complete with a built-in screen and battery. It achieves this with an array of six pogo pins on the back of the device, which are designed to allow the attachment of hardware accessories. For software it’s running Android with an unlocked bootloader, and HMD is calling the kinds of hardware you might build around the device “outfits.” Between them, HMD’s ambition is to provide a device that end users or even businesses can customize to suit their needs.

Also the android app seems to only be available in the USA at this time.


Can’t comment on how good it is, but bard seems like a much better wake word than “gemini”.


Thanks for that, although the lack of an ETA is disappointing.

Google has elected to wait for Apple to roll out that feature on iPhones before enabling the tracking device support on Android.

Letting your main competitor decide when you can launch a product sounds absolutely moronic.

I get the idea, but Apple had no such qualms about android users being stalked when they launched airtags.


Considering the almost weekly top secret document leaks on the war thunder forum, that wouldn’t be surprising if it was real.


When is Google’s airtag alternative being released?
I saw a while ago Google was planning an airtag alternative, but it seems to have been delayed. Anyone know when it's finally coming out?

Xiaomi Mi max series, big screens with a good ratio. its sad there won’t be a max 4.

A lot of modern phones have big screens, but they’re made long and thin for handlets.


Not ideal but there’s apps which use a RTL-SDR stick


Good timing, my Mum wants a new tablet for Christmas.

I was thinking of going with the Xiaomi Pad 6, but mostly because I’ve always had pretty good luck with the brand.




Haven’t people been saying that since before he even bought it?



It’s called the Californian ideology and dark triad

Honestly I agree with the article but it’s a bit of a ramble of vampire castle buzzwords.



I’ve been a huge fan of Xiaomi for years, but it feels like they’re going down the pan.


On the other end there doesn’t seem to be any phablets either. they are all weirdly long screens.



I guess in the technical sense of the term any targeting of advertising is discrimination.
