  • Which is due to missing context at the end of a sentence, probably. Therefore it just chooses the most likely, but often not best, word.
    Workaround: Disable autocorrect, and check for underlined words afterwards.

  • It depends on the toppings used and how it was prepared.
    Frozen pizza reheated will apparently be much more greasy than what I'm used to, either freshly made or self made, the latter containing basically no oil/fat that could be greasy.
    Also, you're probably used to tons of cheese and pepperoni, while I often prefer just a little bit of pepperoni, and much more ham, bacon, jalapenos and just enough cheese to not see everything fully.
    And yes, pizza from many restaurants are much more greasy than self made ones, but not greasy enough to actually get through carton designed to isolate and contain anything inside.

  • Note, they are actually much larger than the average silicon version of it. The largest I could find was 43 cm long, which is OK to take. But normally, they're ~1 m when e... oh wait, you mean "take" as in "win against", nvm.

  • In germany, though it's a private school so public school times are probably a bit more relaxed.
    For lower grades it's from 8:30 am to 4pm fixed, but higher grades have individual timetables per person, with lessons starting from 7:45 am and some ending at 5 pm. Usually there's time in between, but at some days not, like wednesday. Often, for 10-12/13th grade, there are also PE courses after school for 1 1/2 h or longer to mitigate a missing hour of PE per week. Also, it's a school with a focus on sports (Basketball) and music, so many students have courses and activities there after 5 am.
    Getting to school is easier for us 18 year olds, with cars and/or motorcycles, but lower grades need to use public transport, so for me it has been a way of over an hour to school, and even longer back if no one was able to pick me up from the train station to the village where I live.

    In contrast, a 3 week internship in a bank located in a city over 100 km from where I lived required waking up at 8:50 am for the daily meeting and logging off from the citrix session at 4 pm.

  • The custom software running on manufacturers roms is almost always installed with higher privileges than even the user has. That's simple because the apps 'have' to be system apps, so a user can happily use the Samsung Gallery instead of the perfectly working Google Photos and not uninstall it, while often being a single App/Bundle with at least one feature requiring highest privileges, eg. a remote control, security or app store feature. That goes against all security conventions and philosophies, but who cares. Also, why bother about carefully granting permissions if just allowing everything works too?

    So, you could attack Android itself, Google Apps or specific manufacturers system apps:
    Android:
    Would grant high permissions
    Present on all Android devices (the majority of phones)
    High bug bounty
    Open source (easy to research)
    Open source (already researched very well, so it's hard to find new bugs in a short time)
    Generally structured very securely
    High bug bounty (already researched a lot)
    GApps:
    Present on nearly all Android phones and therefore also the majority of phones
    High bug bounty
    Closed source (not researched as much)
    Closed source (hard to research, but possible with fuzzing or decompiling)
    Also made considering security and integrated correctly into the permissions construct of Android (so for most apps there are only user level permissions to gain)
    High bug bounty (already researched a lot)
    Third party manufacturers apps:
    Would grant high permissions
    Low/inconsistent bug bounty (not researched that much) Closed source (not researched as much)
    Only on a few devices (not researched as much)
    Often bad code and security standards
    Only on a few devices (not as much impact globally)
    Low/inconsistent bug bounty
    Closed source (hard to research, but possible with fuzzing or decompiling)

    For a normal researcher with a lot of time and skill, Android or the GApps would probably be the better target. Especially because after finding bugs, they'll be potentially more impactful, means you could get more bug bounty, and this is much less complicated than as if you'd need to contact a company not offering such programs.
    In this case they needed quick bugs, without any consideration for bug bounty and usefulness, it's about finding some bugs leading to high permissions no one has seen before. This essentially eliminates Android and the GApps, so custom ROMs remain. As Samsung is one of the biggest with many custom Apps, it's a good target.

  • try it

    Jump
  • Or just hold the brake, put in gear, then release the brake, rev up the engine to 3k rpm and release the clutch. Not as good for the motor and gearbox but faster lol

    Edit: Ya'll, if one knows what they do, and knows the car, speeding the motor up to a specific amount, often 2-2.5k rpm, and releasing the clutch a specific amount, takes less time than gravity needs to overcome the inertia. I'm almost always literally starting while practically still standing, because it takes ~0.1 second to do said things, if you know the car and its sweet spots.

  • There are a few possibilities:

    • It's faster, especially if the handbrake isn't applied already.
    • Some cars, like the one I drove most of the time in driving school, have an automation to keep braking for a second, so one just needs to: Brake, Clutch, Put in gear, Release Brake, Rev up engine a bit, Release Clutch.
    • My current car's Handbrake is basically non-functional, so I have to do the fast foot shuffle.
  • It's much better than going to school every day from 7:45 am to 7 pm and maybe even paying for it. Also school consists of more than half a dozen different subjects, of which you probably don't even like half (PE, Art, German (native language), Social studies), and others are annoying to be relevant for your grades and therefore your life, such as Biology and Chemistry. Just Maths, Physics, English and History are somewhat good, because they're easy and enjoyable (controversial take with Maths in there, ik).
