Yeep there are quite a few of these that get them into the hands of disadvanteged people or underfunded schools and such.

No :)

Idk maybe, but it might be interesting for non game applications like AR apps and such

These loading time projections were based on industry data

Good reminder that lots of industry “knowledge” is just as scientific as the story your great grandpa always used to tell about the war. So much stuff just gets established once and then never questioned again.

I will once they actually support more than googles shitty devices. I dont care about the supposed hardware features that nobody else supports. I know they are already making plans for other devices, but until that is actually a reality, Graphene is useless to me.

How did you solve it?

All their big multiplayer games have lootboxes and stuff like that.

Yeah thats about what i expected.

That is very interesting 🤔
Thanks!

I was considering buying Risk of Rain 2 on sale yesterday for 9€ but buying all the DLCs costs 45€.

Even at 1000$ it will most likely outperform any 1000$ prebuilt you can buy. If they market it like this it can absolutely work at that price point.

You can embed encrypted data inside media files like video, image and audio files. Thats your best bet i think. You cant really hide an entire filesystem afaik unless you build a custom storage device with a controller that only physically connects certain sections under specific conditions.

Thats the dumbest shit ive ever heard. Every server that isnt yours is compromised. The general assumption in computer security is always that anything outside of your physical possession is compromised, especially when your opponent is the best equipped government on the planet.

signal only knows a phone number in association with an account creation date and the last sent message date. everything else is encrypted.

Thats not really possible. If thats all they give out, then that just means that is all that they decide to save. They have access to the servers that everyones messages pass through. They could log the IP and date for every single message sent if they wanted to, but just decide not to do it. This model fails however as soon as they are forced to save more than that.

Or you could just use an encrypted file system…

If they are willing to torture you for the decryption key, then they are also willing to kill you if you destroy the drive.

Do you have a source for that? How would the server know who to deliver data to without being aware of the group member list?

But signal knows it so they will hand it over to the police if requested…

only add people to your group chats that you have good reason to trust

Yeah people need to really set trust hierarchies for this kinda political organizing. Sort of a “Principle of least privilege” but for people.

Only post personal or identifying information in chats where everyone already knows every other person directly. Public or effectively public(with more than like 10 people) chats should never ever have any identifying information in them.

Dont use a SIM card. Which also means dont use Signal unless you have a number than cant be linked to you.

They will absolutely plant long term rats for this shit so if you havent known someone for years, then think twice about telling them things they dont need to know.

If people are actually serious about organizing then tell them to use Briar. There is nothing else that comes close to it. You shouldnt use your primary phone for shit like this anyways so it doesnt matter if they are apple users, they should get a 100$ android just for this.

The manufacturer of the phone obviously needs to actually implement it. So if your phone is old and not using an up to date OS or if they just disable the feature, then it wont work.

Idk man and i dont care. He probably couldve chosen to be a greedy asshole and sell to some big tech company for 100M but instead he took enough to buy a house and live in peace.

For this guy to be paid for all his previous work for which he was supposedly very much underpaid just like almost every open source dev out there. For relinquishing control of the project to a new non-profit he can have 10 million for all i care. From the original announcement:

For our team, a vital aspect of getting this restructuring right was making sure that Eugen was compensated fairly for Mastodon’s brand trademark, assets, and the 10 years he spent building Mastodon into what it is today (while taking less than a fair market salary). Based on replacement costs, Eugen’s time and effort, and the fair market value of the Mastodon brand, its associated properties, and the social network, we settled on a one-time compensation of EUR 1M. We are deeply grateful for his past contributions, and look forward to his contributions still to come.
