RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•You're not alone: This email from Google's Gemini team is concerningEnglish3·16 days agoI can also recommend CalyxOS. Locked bootloaders, open source emulation of all Google’s play services (meaning an open source binary running on your phone, filtering requests to Google’s servers with absolutely minimal/random info).
Basically I have anonymized access to the play store, and any apps I install other than Google pay work, no issue. ~~I believe even Google’s secure features work. There’s a reddit post about MitID: https://www.reddit.com/r/CalyxOS/comments/w2ordg/a_proven_way_to_use_calyxos_and_banking_apps_etc/~~
E: having read through the technical comments on graphene’s forums, looks like play integrity prevents MitID from running. The service offers free code generators which hang on your keys though.

I was like, “oh that’s so eerie” as a youngster. The truth behind this path has, unfortunately, been both more embarrassing and savage.

RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Samsung teams up with Glance to use your face in AI-generated lock screen adsEnglish2·1 month agoSure, you get that by default. Firewall only steps in for apps you explicitly block. There’s a toggle for if you want apps blocked by default for you to allow, if you prefer.
Point is, it’s a system that just works, stays out of your way and doesn’t phone home to anyone, just as you’d expect.
Whatever you wind up doing, good luck out there and have fun.

RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Samsung teams up with Glance to use your face in AI-generated lock screen adsEnglish6·1 month agoI’d recommend CalyxOS as a replacement os.
No google code at all to get full functionality of your hardware (excluding Google pay, but graphene doesn’t have that either.)
Anything you need, e.g. swipe typing or advanced camera features, you can install Google’s versions and block their ability to talk to the internet via the built-in firewall.

RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN BusinessEnglish1·2 months agoThanks dude, well aware they’re looking for an AC signal. The added magnet isn’t going to influence that, is my point.
Besides limited magnetic permeability of the magnet itself (the thing the loop is looking for), it’s physically not big enough. What you really need is an amplified field distortion, e.g. a field coil which reads the sinusoidal signal being emanated by the sense coil, and loudly plays the inverse back so the sense coil thinks a giant block of steel slid over it.
RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•The first driverless semis have started running regular longhaul routes | CNN BusinessEnglish12·2 months agoNo, it won’t. I invite you to get some large magnets and place them directly on the loop cuts in the street.

Didn’t they try this in Florida and it basically became officers harassing the fuck out of a teenage kid and his mom at all hours of the night?
E: yeah, fuck this shit.
RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Risks of self-hosting a public-facing forum?English1·3 months agoSomehow 4chan admins have largely escaped legal consequences for this stuff, and I don’t think it’s just because of sec230.
Not a fan of 4chan, but I do note both their and the pirate bay’s operation scheme.
RubberElectrons@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Risks of self-hosting a public-facing forum?English2·3 months agoSounds like hosting outside the US is a possible solution. Many things to be careful of, regardless.

Welp.
