As I understand geo-locking is done for Mainland China accounts as well, so nothing new.

Worth noting that modern AMD CPUs incorporate the TPM functionality in the CPU itself, not sure about Intel.

What actually happens is the VC firms have a relationship with Forbes and push their most favored start-ups on them. A big chunk of people don’t do anything to get on the list, except write their own bios and of course getting funded by said VCs.
That being said, yes, there’s quite a lot of vain people in there.
Re:Ask HN: How are you hosting email for your startup employees?
on Friday July 08, 2022 @10:50PM (#32031021)
I run O365 for the obvious tools and AD but use GSuite for email. SSO for GSuite using AzureAD makes me laugh, plus your employees can use both ‘sign-in with’ Microsoft or Google account for other services and have a single log-in page that ends up just being Microsoft. There’s some tedium with creating accounts on both GSuite and AzureAD, and I’m sure that can be fixed and combined, but who can be bothered when it’s at most 1 employee a week to on-board for early days. Pick your poison, both is an option and works surprisingly well.

Apparently it's as simple as using a different offset in pointers when enabled!

It is supported in hardware for multiple protocols: CAN1.0, CAN2.0, and CANFD. I'm pretty sure there are 3 ports that can be used simultaneously and independently. I only use 2 with CAN1.0.
Edit: By hardware support I mean that a CAN transciever connects to two GPIO pins with access to CAN chip hardware. No SPI interface needed.

Please bear with me, I'm not OS-savvy, are many of these features designed to protect against untrusted processes? If both phones have no additional apps installed, what would be the most likely way for the data within to be compromised? Is it fair of me to believe it's fair to distinguish telemetry and security as separate concerns?

Is there any security reason someone would purchase a security-focused Android phone (Blackphone, Blackberry) over an iPhone?

The back button is not locked to the current app but is based on interaction history. In fact if you use your phone and end up with a dozen open apps, pressing the back button a couple dozen times would be quite similar to navigating in exact reverse of how you got there.

I wonder if OEMs will find it easier to design a single 100W cooling system instead of 2 45W cooling systems to fit inside an ultrabook. Hoping for a new XPS15!

Rape is traumatizing and the criminal prosecution process is not helpful in letting the victim recover. Imagine being told to recount the events in front of strangers countless times, while one party's job is to make anything you say doubtful and convince others you're wrong to be traumatized. At least with social media you only have to write it out once.

Low quality energy. Also, not sure how precious it really is. A car has a better entropy differential at the exhaust pipe.
