Nobody does anything anymore and we'll all just die. Gotcha.

I'm fully in favour of abolishing IP law for everyone, ideally globally.

Public domain everything.

Where you bullied of Bluesky for saying something they didn't like?

Americans eating like they got free healthcare or something.

Where do you think Samsung phones are made and by whom?

It's also at around the same price point in Europe. I don't think the tarriffs had an effect on the price.

Edit: I was wrong about JP pricing and removed that part.

I guess most people who want to use a domain as their username aready have that domain.

It feels a bit like the author used AI as a buzzword to get people to click on an article about electronics recycling.

e-waste is a big issue affecting everyone and AI has lots of known issues. Mashing both of those things together doesn't fix anything.

It ain't so.

To use the "backdoor" an attacker needs to have full access to the esp32 powered device already.

It's like claiming that being able to leave your desk without locking your PC is a backdoor in your OS.

You can use an online tool to look up the Bluetooth [1] or Wifi [2] MAC of the device. If it's espressive you've got one of their chips. That doesn't guerantee that it's not one of the others they make. You can also open up the device and look for the esp32. They almost always look the same with their metal can ontop.

The risk has been estimated as 0.3 out of 10

Don't worry about it.

Someone correct me if i'm wrong, but it looks like it's not the big deal the original blog post makes it out to be.

To issue those undocumented HCI commands one either needs to hijack a computer/soc/mcu that is connected to an esp32 with HCI UART transport enabled or put malicious software on the esp itself.

The mac spoofing might be interesting for people building hacking tools, however.

Just pick one of the many registrars and server hosts that don't care about takedown requests and host a website with them.

That way it stays more accessible to everyone.

I agree in principle but using Tor won't affect DMCA takedowns.

I guess it would make it way more complicated to use other peoples code if that where the case.

inb4 they release their new "Humane by HP" line of printers. They have only one button, which summons the new HP printer AI.

Migrating to WordPress now is an interesting choice, considering all the drama they're in right now.

Care to elaborate?

What I expect: Having their logo printed next to the lens on a phone which is marketed as a great camera-phone. They had no input on the phone other than how the logo looks.

What I want: A small portable point and shoot digital camera that actually takes photos on the level of a flagship-phone.

Sorry for being harsh, but if you use the "free "forever"" offering of any company as alternative to what google offers you learnt nothing from using google.

You have to contact them about the refund, it's not automatic.
