  • Just like the link in the iOS section, there's a link in the Android section. Both were in the first sentence, I believe. But I had to give the article another once over to find it.

  • I mean, the doc's are available through the link. But here's some screen grabs:

    AFU: After First Unlock

    BFU: Before First Unlock

    BF: Brute Force

    FBE: File Based Encryption

    FDE: Full Device Encryption

    FFS: Full File System

  • Ok, good to know. But aside from knowing you're a researcher, what other info could someone get after seeing you credited as an author? I'd think as long as you practice solid online privacy, the only thing someone could learn is your specific field of study. Do you use a tool like Optery to remove your name from data brokers? Is Lemmy your only social media account? If you said no to either of these, maybe start there to help reduce your online footprint.

  • If there's really just your name associated with research publications online, your in an exponentially better situation than most. Getting published is a process too, it's not just submit and it's online. This being the case, I'd say it isn't a very big deal for privacy. However, I'd wonder if you could use a pseudonym in a publication. Probably not, but it'd be worth checking out.

  • They were arrested for a violent protest that resulted in setting fire to a construction site which was building temporary housing for asylum seekers. Seems pretty straight forward they were protesting the state helping those seeking asylum, no?

  • Kali Uchis is signed to Virgin Music too lol

  • Well, only very specific viruses enter the nucleus, most often due to not bringing along enzymes needed for replication. Then, there's transducing viruses and non-transducing viruses, of which only one will incorporate it's genome in the host genome. Both occur near oncogenic gene locations too, which is why viral infections can lead to cancer, but this isn't very common. I've always felt bacteria are way more complex and that it makes sense CRISPR comes from them. Bacterial viruses, aka bacterial phages, were the evolutionary pressure which lead to CRISPR's development. But I'm a nerd and stay up to date with it all, so maybe that shifted my outlook.

  • Sorry for the delayed reply, but curious why you thought CRISPR would be associated with viruses over bacteria or even mold/yeast?

  • Just out of curiosity, why not just go full Linux and use a Windows VM? Using a debloater (this is my favorite: https://github.com/Raphire/Win11Debloat) makes the windows VM run very well. Plus you limit the extent Microsoft is able analyze and track you. Additionally, this also works around the VPN connection issue currently on going with Windows.

  • Only portions of the code are published while the rest is kept under wraps. Classic corporate America bs finding a loop hole to use a trendy term.

  • Just to be clear, Gemma is only partially open sourced in select area's of the code.

  • Ok, interesting, thanks for the correction. Do you think rephrasing my statement and stating Linus's kernel is more adaptive would be more accurate?

  • It was revolutionary when it was first isolated from bacteria. Always fascinating to me that it's pretty much the bacterial adaptive immune system. Now it's awesome seeing other scientists dial in the precision of an already game changing advancement.

  • Stallman's attempt to rename Linux to incorporate the GNU name not happening was frustrating on his end it seems. Everytime someone calls their system a Linux based OS and not GNU/Linux based OS downplays the work he put in. However, Linus's kernel was more elaborate than GNU Hurd, so it was incorporated. It's said Stallman is a visionary, while Linus is a programist. While there's never been any display of tension in a back and forth between them online, it's always seemed to me they appreciate and also despise various aspects of each another.

  • There's a software package you can install to root most Boox tablets. Definitely look into it as this will give you way more control over your device.

    Here's a solid video covering the topic: https://yewtu.be/watch?v=QtpC9RYK0mw

  • Of course, no problem. When I was coming up I was always told you need to have a reason to put your feet on the floor in the morning. Sounds like you've tried other options to no avail, despite wanting to fix the problem. You should give it a go!

    There's functional drug addicts out there, but when they get sober, they talk about how life's much easier compared to grinding through each day. While this isn't your story, it still shows how functional only means you're able to get by.

  • Ketamine treatment with a doctor well versed on the research is a grand idea. It's covered by some insurance these days if many other avenues were attempted with no improvements. I'd say based on your explanation here, you'd be a great candidate for ketamine treatment. Look up the options in your area and see what the requirements are for treatment as well as what insurance they accept. I know a couple of folks who've had life changing experiences from the treatment, just be sure not to go full Elon with it...Actually, never go full Elon with anything!

  • It's IV ketamine use which has shown to rewire the connections between nodes in the brain. These old connections have triggers for depression baked in more or less. So in rewiring the nodes, the baked in depression can be circumvented. The nasal spray then reenforces these new pathways which were created via IV treatment to help ensure the old ones aren't used again by the brain. It's a delicate process and abusing the drug definitely only makes assessing the process much more difficult.
