  • New Pixel update means your RCS messages might be visible to your boss

    Jump

  • Not sure if you are intentionally being obtuse. But, this is not a hard problem. It has already been solved.

    We have Signal, OMEMO in XMPP which already do that. You don't need to do any encryption in your head..

  • An E2E Encrypted message should not be readable by anyone but the recipient and the sender.

    If it can be read and shared without your explicit consent and approval with anyone even your employer. It's no better than regular TLS encryption.

  • The default assumption everyone had was E2EE message data like RCS would be private.

    Even apple does not share imessage data unless the Apple ID belongs to the employer.

    Why would google do such stupidity is beyond me. But, yes on android assume everything is tracked 24/7. Trust your personal phone only.

  • E2E encryption is useless if you don't control the encryption method and storage.

    Doing this when even apple does not handover such data is stupid on Google.

  • OnePlus 15 review: The end of range anxiety

    Jump

  • If would be vastly improved if your phone had similar components without power hungry soc.

    This year you are getting an even powerful chip, a 165hz even brighter display and some things.

    The 8 Elite gen 5 can use 20W at peak power. Last year's 8 Elite peak was 16-17W. 8 gen 3 was limited to 11W.

    Tell me, how do you expect to get more battery life while using more power and doing more tasks at once? If you limited performance you can easily get away with more battery. But, manufacturers don't and want to push further and further. Multi day battery is possible. But, you need to limit certain things to get that. Can't game or do processor intensive tasks all day and expect multi day battery. Fortunately, the large battery cell and fast charging should make it a non-issue for most people.

    Peak power usage data was shared from here: https://www.socpk.com/cpucurve/gb6/

  • Maybe, its time to switch service providers. Or perhaps the software if its not working for you.

  • Glass costs more. So reviewers often list plastic as a con. Plus, it can be get scratched. You get ceramic coating on the black and violet variants back panel with glass.

    The sandstorm white variant uses fiberglass on its back. But, the frame and camera deco use Micro-arc Oxidation (MAO) which should be durable.

  • While It says 6 years of updates. Its just 4OS updates and 6 Years of security updates. After motorola it seems everyone is skirting around the EU regulations one way or other.

    The OnePlus 15 is said to receive six years of security updates and four major Android updates. According to the EPREL database, we can expect at least 5 years of updates. This is still too short to conform to EU regulations, so it will be interesting to see how strictly this is handled by the EU.

  • Huawei Mate 80 Pro Max has the world’s brightest phone screen

    Jump

  • Max manual will never reach the full brightness capability of your display to reduce display burn. You need Auto brightness, and bright sunlight or similar conditions to trigger the maximum brightness your phone is capable of outputting.

  • No, that would be giving a useful feature to you which would be for your benefit.

  • Pornhub is urging tech giants to enact device-based age verification

    Jump

  • Verified Operating System is the one where the manufacturer or OEM has built, installed, with a guarantee that it has not been tampered or rooted in any manner which can hinder DRM or any security guarantee it offers by default.

    Think SafetyNet and verified boot on android, Or UEFI secure boot on windows.

  • An entire PS5 now costs less than 64GB of DDR5 memory, even after a discount — simple memory kit jumps to $600 due to DRAM shortage, and it's expected to get worse into 2026

  • Yeah, AI video! Useless, we have humans we don't need to burn resources on stupid.

  • Fuck AI. There is a use case for simple apps like chatgpt.

    But, for most things you don't need AI. Things like chat support for product/services, vibe coded app/website. Its all crap.
