Re: Any GrapheneOS users here?

> months in advance of phones like Samsungs.

Months? Plural? That would be difficult.

All my Samsung devices from A-series handsets to S-series handsets, a watch and tablets recieve security updates 1 month after Google publishes them.

So you're telling us you get security updates before the bugs are reported to Google?

Two days battery life, huh? I get three days with my S22 and it is 4 years old now.

Re: Mugged

Whose geopolitical decisions? Not the UK governments.

You may have noticed the words USA and Israel in the article but you probably didn't read it.

Re: “We are closely monitoring the situation"

Bethesda don't take hundreds of millions of pounds of people's money before releasing a game. (ignore pre-orders, you know what I mean)

They also actually do release their games.

Star Citizen is nothing more than a complicated and flashy scam.

Re: a super hybrid of Iraq² and Afganistan

NO-ONE KNOWS HOW BIG THAT IS!!!!

Re: What's with all the new cults springing up all of a sudden?

I think you spelled cunts wrong.

Apollo's CSM & LM were light weight and with the help of the Saturn V were actually capable of getitng to Lunar orbit.

Orion is an overweight pig that with SLS help can't even reach a proper lunar orbit you can land from.

Of course in the 60s Health & Safety was not what it is today and NASA were very, very, very lucky not to lose any crew after Apollo 1.

Re: I'm struggling... how does this make sense?

> The whole world is moving towards local-AI away from cloud AI.

Daily headlines about datacenter build outs, memory prices, CPU shortages, datacenters IN SPAAAACE, etc would disagree.

Re: Scary, truly scary

What does fear or the ability to replace parts have to do with understanding or intelligence?

> Very few parts of you (assuming this is not being read into an AI) can be replaced.

Actually quite a lot of human parts can be replaced, from the teeth to the heart. About the only thing that can't be replaced is the brain, sadly for Mr Overstreet who clearly needs a new one.

Re: Wrong vocabulary

> a boot on your neck, aka tariffs.

A boot on whose neck? Tarrifs are paid by businesses and consumers in the importing country, that boot is on American necks not European ones.

It fit inside the shuttle's cargo bay. It is not that big.

From Wikipedia...

Dimensions 13.2 m × 4.2 m

Or 1x London bus. (surprisingly similar at 12 - 13.75m long)

Re: Is that safe?

It's Apple, I thought the child and slave labour came as standard?

Re: AI?!?!?

In what way is AI low cost?

Enviromentally... nope

Socially.... nope

Economically.... not once you're paying the actual cost rather than the current, heavily subsidised rates

Re: It's worse than that

All that "pre-bought" RAM will be useless since HBM does not fit into a DIMM slot.

Similarly, when was the last time you saw a socket for a Tensor core or had a use for a GPU without an HDMI or DVI socket?

Re: 'effective age assurance measures'

> the site became almost unusable

I have seen no difference in Reddit before or after July 2025. I have never been asked to verify my age and I am subscribed to several subs that have NSFW pictures posted, including one I added this week.

I'll agree Reddit is often unusable but that is down to their own technical issues and nothing to with age verification.

FTFY

Re: It's not the children

This is the UK, where you are an adult at 18. Not some religous backwater where you can die for your King, sorry President, years before you're allowed a glass of beer.

Re: Why but it from Holland when you can steal it from next door?

Not once it has exploded.

It is well known that if China invades, TSMC goes boom.

Re: It's cos it's running on...

Most of GitHub runs on AWS.

Re: Dear Mr. Altman

Sarcasm. Apparently you haven't heard of it.

Also insecure because an attacker can try each character in turn untill they find the correct one.

Who is the security guy in the article and what are his credentials?

Re: Why it's unfair...

> Just fund it from the exchequor

Screw that. Why should I pay for you to watch the BBC when I have no need or want for it myself?

The BBC do not make a single programme I am interested in. They do not cover the sport I am interested in. They are laughably incompetant when it comes to covering anything IT related.

The people who want to watch shit like Eastenders can pay for it. I do and will not.

Re: Flying junk

5 years? The computing hardware will be out of date in 2 years, maybe less.

Re: yes ... 1000000000000000000000%

> How can you 'sell' something that you don't understand ???

The vast majority of sales people do exactly that. Or did you think the car salesman understands how the ECU (or anything else) on your new car works?

Re: With a straight face

The second part is better: "those ads are relevant and interesting and helpful to the consumer, then it's a positive thing."

No, no, no it is not a positive thing because to make those ads supposedly relevant to the consumer the modern ad industry is raping our privacy.

Printed magazines and newspapers never placed a cookie in my pocket so they could follow me around town and see what I'm buying, reading, watching and listening to. I have no problem with adverts, they paid for my childhood and schooling, it's the pervasive surveillance economy created by online adverts that is the problem.

If Ms Anderson can't understand the difference then she is either stupid or evil.

No they did not disable the feature, they MONETISED it by placing it behind a paywall instead. An easy to bypass paywall by all accounts.

Perhaps compile them into a single web page entitled Frequently Asked Questions?

I don't think suggesting hiring 14 year olds to Musk is a good idea if his "AI" is anything to go by.

Sounds like that manufacturing firm need a database trigger, not a glorified chatbot.

And perhaps some IT people who have half a clue about the subject.

Re: For someone who apparently doesn't like communism....

I have several Russian friends and several Ukranian friends also.

I have no American friends, they cause far too much drama.

> social media is a deadly corrosive weapon when wielded by young people

I had no idea Zuck, Musk and Trump were young people.

You should stop blaming youth and blame the real degenerates behind social media.

Samsung, LG and the Chinese. That's it.
