I guess it's the usual Russian propaganda tactic throughout Telegram. Mixing conspiracy theories with half-truths.

The NSA indeed distributed a defected encryption library in the past. These days I'm pretty sure big techs use open source encryption to avoid this trap.

And Telegram says blah, blah, iPhone is exploited. But IF Telegram is correct on this one, Andriod versions would be defect as well.

Honestly, though, I wonder why memes don't flood out to news magazines.

I think they can just ban tabs. And do some automatic rejection via... what? Are kernel devs still using email attachment for this?

Yup, this is why I didn't buy. I didn't smell a good intention. (Although, I refrained from judging whether the price would go up or down.)

LLMs don't generate that sort of templated response for conversation (although they do for software code).

It's more likely a traditional ad, using some classical algorithms perhaps.

Me a programmer has a bigger issue with !

users annoyingly do not read the NEWS files they should be reading

Devs having too much time.

Not cool

You know what it's called? Corruption.

I bet he listened to zionist patrons for campaign funds, and that was the last straw.

No way I'm gonna scroll this 15min article to spot where that's mentioned

Version control the dot files.

NixOS is a reproducible OS. I wouldn't call it immutable.

While many of the issues with Debian can be resolved by compiling from source, this has been one of the main causes of system failure for me in the past. It also requires equal or greater effort than playing with Nixfiles.

I guess you are doing something wrong here. I can't imagine that compiling stuff on Debian would be trickier than tinkering with NixOS.

Maybe you have been following advices on the web instead of taking the time to understand problems and keep your Debian tidy?

Besides, between an expert niche like NixOS and the popular Ubuntu, there are more than a dozen OSes you can consider when it comes to preferences on maintenance. You don't have to consider so many, but a blog article on your particular three / four (NixOS, Debian Ubuntu + Mint) looks a bit off.

It's difficult to feel the cut of emission. I just hope it's actually happening. All I can do for now is trust that report.

I am a manager at a big tech and I hate capitalism. CXOs really only care about profits, and thus everybody high-level proposes new enshittification strategies.

Depends on how much Google pays for this, but, yeah, I don't think the ex-employees net-benefit.

This is a weird pattern because Apple can't listen to its own power users (of macs). Tim Cook is criticized by them for caring only about money. Yet he still is on the purity train. Yeah, it's probably all about their stock holders.

But what do YOU think?

Let's gooo
