The Play Integrity API is less about security and more about Google asserting their monopoly.

They do not want truly open source Android platforms to gain popularity, because there would be a high chance people would want ad blocking, which is a direct threat to their profit margins.

I hope EU takes regulative action to force Google to allow GrapheneOS, LineageOS etc. to be able to run the same apps without issues.

Is No Man's Sky still "a mile wide and an inch deep"? What are the basic gameplay loops?

I'm optimistic, since technical arguments can be pretty heated yet they end like this:

If you hate XCOM's PRNG hit percentages, you may want to try or watch Hard West. It has somewhat deterministic luck mechanic, that prevents idiocy that happens in XCOM. The game itself is a bot buggy, though.

Oh, it has Denuvo. I hope they remove it later.

I miss even earlier days. Good times.

But can't argue that I've been saving a lot since I can just pass every bundle now.

Komponenttivastaava. Lukijat saavat raapia päätään ja pohtia, että mitähän englannin kielen sanaa tämä vastaa.

Can you find any links where one can read about this?

If Finland is wasting tax payer money to something shady, it should be brought to the local media.

And GrapheneOS has call recording btw

Thank you for the information. Unfortunately it does not seem to have automatic call recording yet:

Which apps do you mean?

You answered this already: apps that use the Play Integrity API. Includes some local banking apps, some random ones and Google Wallet. I wish app developers didn't use those APIs, but they are probably not aware of the implications or don't care.

Jutussa ei tainnut selvitä yhtään konkreettista tapausta, jossa lennättäjällä olisi ollut kytköksiä vieraisiin valtioihin.

Onkohan poliisilla taas alkamassa alustustava rummutus uusien valtuuksien vaatimiselle?

I also have LineageOS 21 and Magisk 27, and WhatsApp works without issues. I don't remember having to do anything. But I have a different phone.

Maybe the Pixel 8 LineageOS images have some issues?

Did you flash the Google apps image?

Hyvä! Mietin itsekin, että eikö tässä tilanteessa kuuluisi tehdä rikosilmoitus asian taustojen selvittämiseksi.

Olisi hyvä, jos kertoisivat läpinäkyvästi minkä lain perusteella on toimittu ja miksi. On paljon muitakin avoimen lähdekoodin projekteja, joilla voi olla sama tilanne.

As a finn, I understand that there are probably legal reasons for doing this.

I just wish they would be transparent and share those reasons with us. The Linux kernel is certainly not the only free software project that is impacted, if this comes straight from EU/US sanctions. Maintainers of other projects have a lot of interest in what is happening.

Transparency is also important because if EU/US policy/sanctions are causing issues for free software projects, then that discussion needs to be public, so that there is a chance to amend the policies if necessary.

finland has pretty bad, climate-change-exploitation-fucking-over-the-third-world dealings in my country

Which country is that, and what dealings?

There may be worse countries, but rest of the word is not in a proxy war with them.

Yes, not only is it realistic, it has actually happened. It's easier to write code than understand it. Even when reviewing code, you miss more or less obvious issues. Not to mention intentional vulnerabilities that can be sneaked in over multiple commits and time span long enough to make reviewers forget the larger context.

Itsellä jäi Reddit taakse, ja olen kyllä tykännyt selailla Lemmyä, mutta tosiaan varmaan lähinnä avoimeen lähdekoodiin liittyvät communityt ovat suosituimpia.

Ehkä täällä voisi tehdä jotain viikottaisia keskustelulankoja, niin saisi vähän enemmän aktivoitua keskustelua? Kriittisen massan ylittäminen alussa lienee haastavinta.

So Prism Launcher is a Minecraft launcher.

Some context in the post would have been nice.

Look buddy, you don't need to use it if you don't want to. Just remove the package. I'm sure telnet will continue working!
