It’s the logo of “0din”, which is a Mozilla-backed bug bounty (say that five times fast) with a focus on GenAI

I thought it was going to be the Chinese lady who recorded, “the Bluetooth device is ready to pair” 😂

Anyone who found this interesting should check out Nick Harkawway’s novel Gnomon. It’s set in a near-future society with a similar kind of omnipresent and ambivalent AI/surveillance system, combined with some fantasy elements.

“The day God intervened” is crazy. I’m not religious, and clearly neither is Trump. Straight up blasphemy…

It’s about time. I hop between iOS and Android every so often, and the lack of RCS has always been a major pain in the ass. Goodbye shitty compressed photos and hello read receipts. Unless your Android vendor doesn’t fully support RCS… Looking at you, Samsung

“Found”

Apple’s App Store has included this “feature” for several years. Gross.

This is pretty hysterical

End-to-end encryption stops being secure… at the end… Who would’ve thought

Anyone with a background in computing would respond, “duh.” The operating system maintains a file table which contains the addresses of pieces of data on the disk. Deleting a file just removed its file table entry, and in most cases leaves the data untouched. That’s why data recovery software exists, and it’s also how we have the “Trash” or “Recycle Bin”. If you want the photos completely erased, you’ll need to overwrite the data, which wastes time and write cycles…

God forbid
