A game can both be complete and have expansions later. While it is true that many games strip what seems like core content off the main purchase to sell it separately as DLC, there are many examples of DLCs expanding upon an already finished game.

They will run Linux, but you might fry them if your fans don’t work properly.

The EFI will control the fans just fine.

At 8 months old it should be well within warranty. Just get it fixed.

I expected something more shocking when I read “working with Russia”.

Kagi uses multiple search backends, and of course it needs to forward search terms to these backends. These backends probably can’t trace the searches back to the individual Kagi user though, but Yandex could still analyze search trends for example.

What’s worse is that - unless they use Yandex’ API for free - customers indirectly (and likely unknowingly) support a Russian company with their paid Kagi subscription.

Kagi should at the very least release a statement about this claim.

Even if all of that worked, why would I want it?

And what would that help with?

What, sending bitcoin? That’s not really a feature of Proton Mail, rather it’s a feature of the wallet that happens to be able to send bitcoin via email (I suppose so that the recipient can then transfer the funds to a bitcoin address of their choice unless their email address is already linked to Proton Wallet).

Even if you’d consider this a feature of Proton Mail, how does this have higher priority than a proper iPad/tablet app, or the ability to add a .ics attachment directly to my (default, non-Proton) calendar without having to manually download the .ics file, open it with a file manager and then add it to the calendar? Filtered views (for example: view unread and starred messages but nothing else in one list)? A somewhat usable offline mode? The list goes on, and that’s just Proton Mail. Proton Drive still lacks a native Linux app (I know there’s “support” for Proton Drive in rclone, but that’s hacked together because Proton doesn’t even provide official API documentation and stability commitments).

I’d rather pay for the individual services that I can actually (somewhat) use, like Mail (even though it’s not great), but their Mail only tier severely lacks in features (only 1 custom email domain is my main problem). If they’d then commit the financial resources towards improving the service being paid for, that’d be great.

They should stop adding more and more services and instead focus on making existing services better or - in some cases - feature complete first.

For a while Apple artificially blocked signing in to your Apple ID with physical passkeys (like a Yubikey) on Firefox even though the browser supported it just fine.

Their “iCloud for Windows” browser extensions didn’t support Firefox either last time I checked (needed for syncing bookmarks and the password manager).

I was gonna suggest the same.

Are the Core Ultra mobile chips affected as well?

Ok this is crazy awesome! Loved the game at LANs, played the derby mode so much. I hope people create a lot of maps and vehicles for the workshop :)

Oh okay, $21 for one controller isn’t too bad I guess. I just read this:

these controllers are now accessible to everyone at a price point of approximately $42 USD each

…and thought it was $42 per controller.

Still not for me, but at that price I can understand why people would buy it.

Well if you don’t have an actual use case for it, don’t try to artificially find one.

The only thing I use USB sticks for nowadays is for OS installs.

For everything else their write speeds are slow (even the more expensive USB sticks slow down to a crawl after what feels like not even one complete overwrite) and they are unreliable.

Sure, if you want to carry around random OS installers and live environments, go for it. I personally don’t have a use case for it.

A controller with a d-pad, 2 plastic buttons and 2 tiny rubber buttons for $42?! They sure know how to milk their fans.

Which they probably won’t…

I was talking about the “Brute-Force Password to get the user data (CE) decrypted” column, which is probably the more interesting part.

Not really. A 6-digit PIN gives you ~20 bits of entropy so it’ll be cracked in no time. The only protection you’re relying on is the hardware and the OS, and according to the Cellebrite compatibility table it’s mostly a question of when a vulnerability is found, not if.

So it’s a trade-off between security and usability.

So in short newer Pixel and iPhone models seem to be the most resilient to these attacks, with every iPhone able to run iOS 17.4 (XS/XR or newer) currently not attackable.

But obviously an attacker in possession of the device can wait for an exploit to be found on whatever OS version the device is running.

The by far best protection then is to set a strong passphrase so even if/when your device/OS have known vulnerabilities to allow brute force attacks, the passphrase is too complex to be brute forced in a realistic amount of time.

No, Fedora Workstation 40 does not have minimize and maximize buttons by default/ootb.

Or course my view is somewhat biased, but so is yours. I just know people who are absolutely clueless when it comes to computers and yet they have to for example use Zoom for the odd meeting or Teams.

Most apps using a tray icon don’t necessarily require interacting with it for the app to function (and I never stated that was the case), but beginners coming from Windows (which will be where most users are coming from, if at all - at least that’s my “biased view”) will absolutely be used to tray icons being there and might have used them to access app functionality or at least just to see that the app is still running if it has no windows open.
