I see that you don’t like the idea of local storage in case you need to use your coins on the road, but you do know that local storage doesn’t mean your coins are stored on your device, right? It just means your private keys are stored on your device. You should just create a wallet on one device and then copy the private keys to all of your devices.
If you don’t own your private keys, you don’t own your coins. Use services only to buy/sell, not for storage
Unfortunately, opting-out isn’t the privacy win you think it is. Next time you go to the security checkpoint at an airport, I want you to look up and note the number of security cameras on the ceiling. It would be a trivial task to scan your face using one of those cameras and match it to your identity using the timecodes in the cameras along with the timestamps on the ID card scanner.
I’m gonna be looking for a new job soon and I’ve been reading stuff like this more & more. Makes me really scared. I guess reaching out to recruiters directly via LinkedIn is more important than ever. I also hope the AI software hasn’t made its way down to small/medium-sized companies yet, since those are the ones I’d rather work for anyways
I was hoping this would allow me to take over Bluetooth speakers that people use while skiing and replace their music with a PSA about how no one wants to hear their music
The ORIGINAL source code is copyrighted, but decompiling does not give you the original source code. Decomp tools give you generic variable names like unsigned_int_4 and then it’s up to you to decipher what the purpose of the variable even is and give it a relevant name. So it’s virtually impossible you’ll get a character-for-character match to the original.
Also, decomps have different levels of accuracy. You may get something that is a perfect behavioral match, even though there’s differences in the instructions being run. You may get an instruction-perfect match but not a byte-perfect match between the binaries.
IANAL but this is what I’ve learned from following decomp projects on YouTube
I imagine they poached a lot of Spacex engineers by simply telling them “we won’t make you work ungodly hours, nor will we subject you to a narcissistic manchild with no engineering education dropping in on your meetings and trying to tell you how to do your job”
Not sure if you noticed, or if sorghum noticed, but the link about dried beans they had in their reply refers to another blog post about your question. The author found that yes, homemade bread is cheaper when considering electricity costs, but obviously YMMV depending on power costs and the price of equivalent store-bought bread
I like front ends so I have a record of what I have and have not played, and so I can easily pickup where I left off with series and playlists, but to each their own
??? the Mario movie was good. I think Hollywood as a whole is doing a lot better with video game adaptations now (let's not talk about Borderlands), like everyone expected the Minecraft movie to crash & burn but it turned out to be a fun movie for anyone who played the game a decent amount
I feel like the result of this is gonna be a big ol nothingburger. There’s no way someone works as a mod/admin for the most controversial website on the internet and uses an email address that can be linked to their real identity, and doesn’t use a VPN/tor.
Pretty sensationalist article IMO. I mean, they act like the source code being leaked is newsworthy. Somebody with a month of coding experience could write that website in an afternoon.
I love DIY tech projects and yet I would never go through the effort to make a robot vacuum because vacuuming is already the easiest chore in the house. You kinda just stand there and go swoop swoop swoop a few times. Takes like 3 minutes to do an entire room. As opposed to listening to the robot vacuum rumble around for an hour and do a half ass job, if it even finishes without getting spooked by a shadow thinking it’s a 100ft cliff
You’re placing a lot of trust in corporations to respect the idea of backups, but you do you I guess
