Re:Passkeys are a trap. Do not use them on Monday October 12, 2026 @04:28AM (#50053186)
I'm just waiting for my TKey to support FIDO2/WebAuthn.

I don't trust using anything else that I can't backup myself, remote attestation is trash.

Ah do you have to use an API key? I assumed it would pretend to be the real Spotify client?
Re:Hijacking the PS5's RTMP Stream on Tuesday September 29, 2026 @03:19AM (#49889407)
It is pretty wild that RTMP without any TLS is a thing, anyone in the chain, ISPs etc could just sit there and log all RTMP traffic and tap the stream at any time.

Smells like KVM/VM escape to host.

I'd guess Apple are already hard at work making something similar and better than this.
Re:Shutting down our public encrypted DNS on Tuesday September 08, 2026 @04:44AM (#49607457)
I was considering setting something similar with Tailscale, I have a TS exitnode that sits on a VM alongside my VyOS/home router.

I'd tempted to setup a DNS Forwarder up on that with Ad-Blocking then use Quad9 as upstream, then just have Tailscale be always on.

There used to be a rule in some of the AsahiLinux channels that no RE discussion was allowed, not sure why.

I also know the AsahiLinux team is very aware if there are any unintended things that cross the Linux-macOS boundary Apple would very likely just shut it down.

Apparently even the macbook neo has the ability to run AsahiLinux, so they can definitely allow access to running alt OSs pretty easily

I have an M2 Macbook Air that I love, it's the best machine to read news from and access other machines over SSH, I only use macOS to use rekordbox, 99% of the time I'm booting into AsahiLinux
I just don't trust macOS enough to run the hw, AsahiLinux/Linux Kernel I do, I love Apple hardware but want to run Linux.
Without 3D accl basic web browsing can sort of suck, QubesOS has software only rendering and you can really feel it.

I used to use Mullvad's DoH Service because of ad blocking, it worked quite well with SoundCloud etc.

Are there any alternatives?
