Does it actually tell you the results? I'm curious how they score your driving, and how effective it is. The scariest things I see on the road are things like:

  • distracted driving
  • tailgating
  • lack of awareness

I don't see how they'd measure how safe a driver you are.

Perhaps it's just that people are more careful when they know they're being monitored, and safe drivers are more likely to opt in?

I think most orgs would want to own the server and for messages to not be end-to-end encrypted. All connections to the server would still be encrypted.

That would be more in-line with slack or something.

If you're referring to federation specifically then that's going to get pretty complicated with security policies.

Standard notes: what about don’t put all your eggs in one basket rule?

If the owner of the standard notes will now be a proton, doesn't that contradict this principle? I have a proton email account but I don't want it linked to my standard notes account. I don't strongly trust companies that offer packaged services like google or Microsoft....

I've been using orgzly for years and this is the first I've heard of revived. Looks promising.

Corngood ,

Emacs I assume.

Corngood ,

cmake compiles to makefiles as well (it just also supports some other backends). I'm not sure why that matters though. In both cases the makefile is generated.

Corngood ,

There's actually not that much autotools jank, really. There's configure.ac and a few Makefile.am. The CMakeLists.txt in the root is bigger than any of those files.

There's also some stuff from autotools archive in m4/. IMO that's a bad practice and we should instead be referencing them as a build dependencies.

I'm not convinced this backdoor would have been significantly more difficult to hide in the cmake code.

Corngood ,

Oh yeah, that was pretty much the point I was trying to make too.

GrapheneOS + Pixel phone is the only true option if you want any kind of ensure that even of the device is lost your data won't be accessed.

I think that's an exaggeration. You don't need secure boot for your data to be encrypted. What secure boot prevents is someone modifying the device without your knowledge (e.g. to capture your keys).

I feel like AGI might be the furthest away of all those things.

Lawyers who sunk Elon Musk's big pay package are now asking for nearly $6 billion worth of Tesla stock. Musk doesn't seem happy. (www.businessinsider.com)

Lawyers who sunk Elon Musk's big pay package are now asking for nearly $6 billion worth of Tesla stock. Musk doesn't seem happy.::After sinking Elon Musk's $55 billion pay package, lawyers are now asking a Delaware court for about 11% of those Tesla shares for their fee.

According to the Journal, plaintiff attorneys usually get one-third of a verdict or settlement amount.

This isn't a an amount awarded in a verdict though, is it?

Plaintiff's Counsel have not been paid for their work, nor have any of their costs or expenses been reimbursed, and litigating this Action required the allocation of a substantial amount of Plaintiff's Counsel's time and resources over six years, including considerable out-of-pocket expenses,

So that's roughly 100 lawyers working full time for 6 years at $5k per hour. Seems legit.

In any case this is hilarious and exactly the kind of thing Elon would try.

    Just regular Gilead shit.

    This is some late 90s web forum admin tyrant drama. Wait until he finds out he can use phpmyadmin to edit other peoples posts.

    That would be awesome, but who's going to push for it?

    It's easy for the opponents to use safety as a case for why users shouldn't have control of the software in their car.

    The manufacturers already want to get rid of ODB because they'd rather control that data themselves.

    At least android auto has been reverse engineered, and doesn't currently require any sort of difficult-to-bypass hardware attestation.

    Why put in extra hours? That's not high-performance, it's just doing more than one job, assuming you're paid for a target number of hours.

    I'm more experienced with graphics than ML, but wouldn't that cause a significant increase in computation time, since those aren't native types for arithmetic? Maybe that's not a big problem?

    If you have a link for the paper I'd like to check it out.

    You could probably do it with bubblewrap or something equivalent. Here's someone asking about this exact thing:

    I use Emacs+org-mode on pc and orgzly on mobile. Syncthing to sync them.

    And when they figure out how to serve ads on IMAP, you can take thunderbird to another provider.

    I don't think it'll actually come to that, due to popularity, but I can see them blocking IMAP access on new accounts due to 'security'.

    Corngood ,

    Huh, I've seen .local used for this quite a bit and only just now realised that it's meant for something else.

    I've also seen .corp 🤮

    Corngood ,

    That was my office chair for most of my adolescence, until it got sick of me leaning my fat ass on the back legs, and betrayed me.

    I use orgzly for android, with syncthing to synchronise the files.

    It's very flexible, but I'm not sure it's quite what you're looking for.

    They're talking about Spirit AeroSystems, which I believe is an unrelated company that just coincidentally also happens to be terrible at what they do.

    My non-expert take on this:

    Haier claims these plugins cause the firm significant financial damage

    Don't care. Competition is not damage.

    violate copyright laws

    Prove it.

    plug-ins developed by you [...] that are in violation of our terms of service

    The plug-ins never agreed to your ToS. Better sue your customers instead.

    What's the android IDE? To me solving the file permissions thing sounds simpler.

    Android should allow you to do something like that with storage scopes.
