The focus mode ui is another bugbear - how scattered the ui is for this.
I can alter it from the bottom middle of the notification shade once set, but I can’t enable it from there - why?
At least put a line with date and time at the bottom of the notification shade so I don’t have to roll it all the way down.
Also, I’ve set triple back tap to turn on the flash.. well, it only works (inconsistently) when the phone is unlocked. Why?
In iOS how hard it is to glance the time and date while watching a full screen video.
I think a possibility is a series of open source anvil or nixos scripts that you can run on most hardware with minimal changes, in an extendable architecture of some kind to add or remove functionality and they perhaps get maintained by the community or some structure of the kind of Linux distributions.
This could enable people with minimal skills set up and maintain a reasonably useful but secure environment just by changing a few variables.
Can find great deals for 2yo second hand high tier phones
Unlike other chat services Telegram has a “social” aspect and search capabilities for locating public discussion channels.
Furthermore E2EE is optional and most people don’t turn it on and is certainly not on in public channels.
While techies are freaking out about an attack on encryption the articles I’ve read so far don’t mention anything about encryption or otherwise it seems that French police is concerned about moderation or attempts at moderation of those public channels, that Telegram specifically refuses to moderate.
Perhaps this will be an attack on encryption by stealth but at this point that’s not what it looks like.
As a personal anecdote when I installed Telegram a few years ago and searched for my city’s name the top 20 results where channels offering to sell you heroin - which I thought was so blatant as to be certain it was police sting operations - but who knows.
I can’t imagine any system of influence running an exposed ssh without some further protection from connection abuse like fail2ban.
See how much an exploit for iPhone vs Android will run you in the open market.
Also how fast a discovered security hole will be patched and distributed to the fleet between the two systems.
Most Android phones will never get a patch, some will get it 6 - 12 months later and very few within the month.
Also one is run by an advertising company.
I hate that the headline is putting it as a foregone conclusion.
Instead of something along the lines of: Will the government allow this massive theft of intellectual property of average Australians?
I'll believe AI can replace engineers when I see NVIDIA firing them. But like the graphic says, the manager's job seems a lot easier to replace instead.
They don't know what you are talking about my fellow Aussie. Any A in an acronym means "American" to the USAns. That other countries exist that start with A is unfathomable.
Perhaps this was written much earlier than v5.
Seems unlikely given that ascetic hermits around the world are known for living to a ripe old age.
