It's a guide to hardware that lists the different hardware security programs, which Windows and macOS have. QubesOS however is purely software, so why would it be mentioned in the first place? It's listed in plenty of more appropiate places and is actually recommended as an operating system opposed to Windows and macOS.

Depends a bit on the clients.

  • KeePass: Will ask you if you want to synchronize/overwrite/discard the database when saving.
  • KeePassXC: Will autoreload the database in the background, so merge conflicts shouldn't happen in the first place. Otherwise there's 'Merge database' in the menu.
  • KeePass2Android: So I mixed up the names and this is the client I actually use. This one does all changes to an internal copy of the database that is then synchronized on request.
  • KeePassDX: As far as I can see it also has a mechanism similar too KeePass2Android.

Assuming you only have one desktop and mobile client you should never run into any issues. If you do have multiple KeePassXC clients it's all fine as well assuming Syncthing always has another client it can sync with.

Most amazingly, this setup is also unexpectedly resilient against merge conflicts and can sync even when two copies have changed. You wouldn't expect that from tools relying on 3rd party file syncing.

I still try to avoid it, but every time it accidentally happened, I could just merge the changes automatically without losing data.

Oh yeah, you're right. It's both degradation in some way, but through entirely different causes.

Same thing with Stable Diffusion if you've ever used a generated image as an input and repeated the same prompt. You basically get a deep-fried copy.

I've been trying to find some better/original sources [1] [2] [3] and from what I can gather it's even worse. It's not even an upscaler of any kind, it apparently uses an NPU just to control clocks and fan speeds to reduce power draw, dropping FPS by ~10% in the process.

So yeah, I'm not really sure why they needed an NPU to figure out that running a GPU at its limit has always been wildly inefficient. Outside of getting that investor money of course.

AI acceleration for 3d upscaling

Isn't that not only similar to, but exactly what DLSS already is? A neural network that upscales games?

And Linux will slowly turn into Windows.

Some distros maybe, but I'd say that instead we'd quickly have another golden era of malware.

All it takes is an App that you”trust” to break that trust

I get what you're trying to say, but that's something I'd classify as "compromised" as well.

Yup. I can get away with prepaid 1GB/month for 3€ because I'm almost always near Wi-Fi and don't really need to use anything bandwidth when I'm not.

I also find it wild how some people will get an expensive contract that comes with a "free" phone, but then don't switch to an equal but cheaper contract (without a "free" phone) when the contract term expires, or at the very least renew the term so they get a new phone.

these keys allow anyone to [...] brick all r1s

the rabbit team is aware of this leaking of api keys and have chosen to ignore it.

Assuming that's true, then just bricking them all sounds like it might even be the ethically correct move.

Or being unable to install third-party apps or other browser engines is supposed to be for security reasons. Or being environment friendly through their recycling program when the truth is that they only do that to keep spare parts out of reach of independent repair shops. Pure gaslighting.
