End to end encryption means user to user.

Not a local storage... Your example is just an encrypted storage, there is no end.

Well, the whole point of otp tokens/2fa, is to have a second login confirmation. Mostly on another device, like a phone.

Now maybe if you store your 2fa way on the same device, but locked away with a strong password, it may work, and could be safe enough.

But if it's the same password as your device or another account, it isn't that safe.

Misspelling

The mx5 only support sbc (minimum to support) aac and LDAC. They dropped aptx to only use their own high latency (and not that much better) codec. The headphone has BT 5.3, but does not support LC3 (an extremely good, low latency codec integrated in base bluetooth).

If you want to check what codec is used in windows, or change, there is a tool : https://www.bluetoothgoodies.com/a2dp/

Not sure if it's free or free trial. But they also have a software allowing to check what is currently in use which is a free trial.

I recently finished Grime (I got it for free on EGS). Not 100% tho.

A metroidvania with lots of difficulty to it.

Tho I found it to be a great game, but not amazing.

The bosses have great music and a beautiful design, they offer a great challenge, and often a respoin point is close enough to not be an annoyance.

There was some (multiple) places where area music was absent, and seemed sketchy.

Weapon balance is, well not that great, due to stamina. The game heavily pushes towards using low stamina consumption weapons, which also attack fast and do low damage per hit.

Higher damage per hit weapons are slower and use more stamina which is very punishing.

The inability to change the mouse binds is also a disappointment. Tho good thing I had ghub to create macros for the game and allow me to change those.

Reduce reuse recycle. Seems to be an interesting material for reuse.

Tho I don't know what to think about it for ecology. The material would most like still get into common trash and thrown into the wild.

Only 25% degradation in the ocean is conflicting. If the resin remains and cannot be degraded, well it's still pollution like plastic.

What happens to the material is burned in a trash incinerator? Does it release bits of resin in the air like plastic?

or when in the wild under rain or dirt?

Tho it still seems to be an interesting material which may allow for a easier repair or recicling of road material.

This post : When stupid people read company news

(great ceo choice, she has experience in communication, which is the main thing a ceo has to do for gnome. She doesn't need to do or participate deeply in development.

And shaman, well whatever, why do you even care?)

Hijacking edit : The article in this post is trash look at this one : https://spectrum.ieee.org/thermal-transistor

I'm not sure if I understand this very well, and how small these could be built.

But let's look at the computer cpus. It maybe would allow for a better heat management in these chips.

When a cpu is designed, the engineers have no idea where the hot-spot is. After plenty of testing, a general spot for a termal probe would be found. However that spot may not be the real hot spot, due to limitations in the design and other factors, like the uneven dissipation of heat in the chip. So there is a tollererance used to prevent the chip from burning itself.

Maybe these thermal transistors could transfer the heat where it really matters and even out how the head gets out of the cpu, which would possibly enhance that heat management and get better results.

I don't remember exactly where this cpu temperature probe limitation was discussed. It would be in one of these 2 videos from Der8auer :

S takes. Intel is a new player with a lot less experience creating drivers for dedicated gpus and gaming.

So it's not about beeing "crap".

It's about beeing impressive that they still support their new linup while increasing the competition pressure on amd and nvidia. They are getting better and better with time, amd maybe at one point, or with next gen we'll get competition forcing the 2 old ones to get better pricing.

Most intel driver news you'll see will most certainly be about the ARC gpus. The integrated gpus not beeing that much worked on for performance and gaming.

I don't use chromium, did not test currently.

But I just saw a video about a chromium browser : Thorium.

It's chromium but with many hardware acceleration, speed, and compatibility enhancements coming from multiple sources and from the guy developing it on github, making it very fast and nicer to use than default chromium.

It has Google sync, so it's not ungoogled, but it has way less bload and more privacy than chrome.

The link to the browser website : https://thorium.rocks/

The thing written in the first sentence in the f-droid store. Just there go look, it's soo hard... You also have all the codeberg link there...

More seriously, it's a fork from infinity for reddit but for Lemmy. https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Eternity

Don't know, not using ublock origin. I use enhancer for YouTube on Firefox, and still not seeing any pop up.

Tho I have it set to allow ads for subscribed channels. Tho the setting seems bugged as a feature where most video ads get blocked, but some of them still run sometimes at the start of the video. The square adds on the side aren't blocked either, but they are not a hindrance.

Only posts originating from your instance.

So only posts made by people from lemmy.world.

When you post something, the post is on lemmy.world.

For example, this is your post https://lemmy.world/post/7469149 . If you would post to another community, it would still be lemmy.world/post/xxx even if the community isn't on lemmy.world. But the post is attached to that community.

All is all the post from all the communities the accounts in your instance are subscribed to.

The Hot sort seems to show new and sligly older content, with an enphasis on new. So I just sort by hot, as the algorithm is pretty good for that.

And mostly on subscribed. All being mostly to discover other things.

This tech seems cool for people who may need it, or even just for fitness or other things.

But if Google is behind using the data to whatever money purpose (like selling ads), it becomes a bit bad.

Tho they would already do so with watches or other health tech connecting to their services. So 🤷. If people have already choose a Google product for health, it doesn't change much, it's just another cool tech to the collection.

Well what if I'm just not inteterested in YouTube music (just because I don't listed to a lot of music)?

It does make the deal a lot worse.

Currently, there are some alternatives, or bluetooth versions which work pretty well.

Often wireless gaming brands offer a usb dongle. That dongle often uses a proprietary protocol over 2.4ghz. And allow enough bandwidth for audio and mic. Some brand give more or less bandwidth to the mic, or have better compression, or bandwidth.

And currently, there is a fairly "new", already here since bt 5.3 : LC3. It's a very well optimised protocol which allows for about the same quality at lower bandwidth than other protocol. It also has lower latency. This protocol has started to be used by gaming brands, like Creative, in a usb dongle. Or even in standalone headphones. On the Creative headset, it would allow enough bandwidth for audio and mic without much compromise (like if it wad a proprietary dongle).

Obviously the quality may not be as good as wired. But it should be enough for most people.

Huawei also seems to have announced (not sure if yet released, it should be in an honor phone), their bluetooth competitor. They say 6x faster (more bandwidth I guess) https://newatlas.com/mobile-technology/nearlink-wireless-huawei/.

The battery optimisation and app prediction (loading apps into memory so they start faster).

Charging optimisation on some phones.

And maybe other things. Can depend on the brand, software and used apps.
