At least this policy is making it easy to spot bot accounts and autogenerated product listings.
These sellers should be shadowbanned and penalized, there is absolutely no justification to have an LLM auto-generate product listings unless the intent is to create spam
This is honestly really great news. I watched Teaching Tech's coverage of the X1Plus jailbreak firmware and it looked really comprehensive, the team even took his feature suggestion and had it implemented and ready within a day.
While I do have some reservations about Bambu Labs' proprietary printers in the typically open source 3D printing landscape, I do appreciate that they're not dancing around that issue and instead found a path which allows customers to officially run custom firmware should they so choose.
It's a little unfortunate that the custom firmware waives your warranty though IMO, although it's really nice that they've made the unlock process easy. Fairphone as an example offer a similar way of allowing their bootloaders to be unlocked, where you go to their website and type in some numbers printed under the phone's back cover, and they take you to a page where you are explained the risks of doing so - however unlike Bambu, Fairphone are willing to respect the warranty as long as the phone has been reverted back to the OEM firmware.
All in all though this is great to see and I'm looking forward to seeing what people do with their CFW Bambu machines
Haven't watched the video, going by your title I'm assuming it's similar to a feature on macbooks where they can be plugged straight into another Mac, thunderbolt, or FireWire device, while powered off, and have their hard drive accessed directly from another computer.
There is code for this in the Linux kernel (sadly not quite the plug and play experience that Macs have, you need to boot after plugging in AFAIK?), and a news article about the commit that added it to the kernel for Thunderbolt was posted to this community a while back. Sadly I have no idea what devices support it, but it is at least is open source.
I really want to love WINE, but it's so difficult to find .net framework installers that actually work on it. Luckily the few Windows apps I use under Linux work with Wine (using Mono as an alternative to .net), or were compiled for XP so run OOTB without any framework install necessary
Ubuntu installation not being able to detect my Nvidia GPU
NVidia and Linux... don't get along very well. They've also been caught violating the GPL in their drivers, resulting in the kernel being hardcoded to block them in some instances. There is good reason why Valve picked an AMD APU in their handheld
Ubuntu partition at work today and finding out my Bluetooth mouse stopped working with it
Modern bluetooth controllers store the paired devices on their onboard memory, rather than only in the OS (allowing your bluetooth peripherals to work in the BIOS etc). If the two paired device lists fall out of sync, this could lead to erroneous behavior, especially since you're dual booting two completely different operating systems using completely different driver implementations to talk to your hardware
Just wanted to share why things are broken - not trying to persuade you to change your workflow. Use whatever works best for you!
I used to pass all the data through to Home Assistant and show it on some dashboards, but I decided to move over to Zabbix.
Works well but is quite full-featured, maybe moreso than necessary for a self hoster. Made a mediatype integration for my announciator system so I hear issues happening with the servers, as well as updates on things, so I don't really need to check manually. Also a custom SMART template that populates the disk's physical location/bay (as the built in one only reports SMART data).
It's notified me of a few hardware issues that would have gone unnoticed on my previous system, and helped with diagnosing others. A lot of the sensors may seem useless, but trust me, once they flag up you should 100% check on your hardware. Hard drives losing power during high activity because of loose connections, and a CPU fan failure to name two.
It has a really high learning curve though so not sure how much I can recommend it over something like Grafana+Prometheus - something I haven't used but the combo looks equally as comprehensive as long as you check your dashboard regularly.
What device specs? Android OS could be warning mull about its memory usage when it's moved to the background, causing the browser to quickly offload whatever it can to be kept partially in memory. Alternatively Android could just be killing mull's tab processes due to too many background apps running, only keeping mull's main executable cached for faster re-launch.
A restart might temporarily alleviate it if you've not restarted your device in a while, particularly if you still have this issue despite closing other apps
Inbound calls? Outbound calls? I would not want to sit through an ad instead of being put straight through to a bank rep to report a missing card or some other important issue
This kind of stuff should be 100% opt in as you say!
Even a really low end ebike can do better than that, and compared to the 300k price tag of this flying car, the cost of said ebike would literally be a rounding error.
Speaking of price tag, you could buy a REAL plane, a cessna 310, with a 1000 mile range (870 nautical) for less than the cost of this!
Wow, this sounds a lot more serious than session hijacking. Are they straight up using Chrome's special token to generate brand new Google Account session tokens?
If so, i'm not sure how Google is going to fix that without wrecking the Chrome user experience for non tech savvy individuals
Klar by Firefox is the German-language version and only available in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. It includes the same features as the English-language app Focus by Firefox.
Why did we change the name/replace the app?
The publishing and media company Burda, which the news magazine FOCUS belongs to in Germany, is one of our partners. We therefore decided to replace our app "Focus by Firefox" in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland by "Klar by Firefox".
They should do something about "consent platforms" using various DNS tricks and thousands of domain names to bypass/evade user blocks.
I wasn't so bothered about some non-invasive ads a few years ago, but I absolutely despise any kind of ad now TBH, and it's mainly down to how persistent some of these platforms are with their evasion tactics
Also pretty ironic for their popups to talk about "respecting" my privacy when these platforms literally do the opposite of that to show their popup in the first place. I will not support any of them, in any way, on my network.
As soon as I see a new one appear when browsing, I chuck it into dnsdumpster so it can get recorded with the rest of them, and then block the new list from dnsdumpster (grid icon) on my network.
The bot quotes in this article completely messed up the AutoTLDR here, wow
