When I was in DevSecOps all the infosec guys were Android and had a choice to and everyone else was forced into iOS.
Also had the ability to run Linux natively on my work machine, which was nice.
One problem too is theres usually no way to update software on a dumbphone, especially in areas like the baseband.
So what happens when there's a baseband exploit?
90+% of users don't even know features like "Find My" exist on their devices.
The average user has zero reason to go into some deep settings menu, or even plug in over USB and execute against it to unlock the bootloader.
>I can install whatever I want
Unless of course what you install is nefarious?
This is the same Apple that openly claimed in marketing material their computers "can't get a virus". My dude, a virus is code, code written with a specified malicious intent. They can...
Also every iOS usually ends up with a "jailbreak", which is also known as an exploit. But somehow in Apple world that's different.
One was a word doc they added "Confidential" to the footer, then released as PDF
They're "portable" in that they can be "universally" read. Not that you can create and manage them.
Editing PDF's is worse than editing documents in Microsoft Word!
Even generating them on the fly can be a real pain. I had a workflow when I was out of work to auto-generate a CV based upon re-writing sections to match the spec. So I'd have pre-written blocks and slot them in. And yet, somehow, even then it would break formatting all over the place.
>We also had to make our own ethernet cables, which is where I learned I can't wire ethernet cables if my life depended on it.
Are you me? would always take me about 10 attempts to even get one where all the pins would light up on a tester. But not good enough for high-speed data.
Kids these days, don't know when they were born. They have push-through RJ45 now, piece of piss and you never have one shorter than the other.
I don't miss on-site/DC infrastructure anymore. No more having to squeeze into tiny spaces, balance a lot of expensive kit on your head, and blood donations to the server gods.
Compute is so ubiquitous now I only have like 2 nodes in my lab anyway
It's been a claim for a long time. They used to claim that in the UK with people selling DVD's in pubs.
The company is a Lego buying company
The fragmentation that has occurred in Android Google does hate, they've been working to try and piece it back together, getting manufacturers to stop bastardising the OS.
Even better, stop using cron
And they, as proven by "blocking" can add a warning into the OS that the hardware has been modified. They could even make it block, but over-ride with a config setting.
Don't know what it is with Proxmox, but I always somehow managed to break it in such a way that I can't remove the container/VM or start it...
The "Snowden Docs" were just a wget --mirror of the internal wiki. So there was a lot of cruft in there.
Greenwald just wanted to make a bigger name out of himself (and he's made bank on that) by claiming there was "millions" of documents. When only a tiny selection were of any usability to publish.
I think I'm too European to understand any of this
>something a human will never find
Eh, yes it is. And something that humans find all the time.
They even call out a non-AI tool that helped.
If hosting a zone and handling the odd customer transaction is "too much work", giving a refund to avoid all the aggravation of getting sued seems a lot like the easiest and best option
>I would not have guessed that .name 3LDs worked the way that it did if I hadn’t read about it.
The situation in the OP is exactly what you just put as A)
Problem is, all these systems we still use were never designed to be like this.
Hell DNS used to be one woman in an office who updated the zone if you e-mailed her.

Ironically as a Brit on the continuant, that was one that annoyed me.
Trying to pay for what I used, in order to leave and do some things was a pain...
People are used to that concept enough that changing a small item on the menu doesn't require a whole re-print, or sitting for an hour with a bottle of Tip-Ex
Define "the norm", because it's absolutely a thing, just not required and or demanded like it is in the USA.
I assume it's because the side bar on the right tracks with your view
As someone, who was wrongly accused of a crime, and had to go to court over it. I can relate, I was massively suicidal, made a whole plan and stockpiled what was required to do it. I was having vivid dreams of even more extreme ways I could go about it.
As you can tell that never happened, but at the same time I always argue in comment sections over his case, as people so wildly misrepresent what happened to their own gains. Especially the fact he willingly and continuingly went around blockers put in place to stop the activity from happening, even after being caught.
Believe what?
It's the truth of the situation, it's reality.
