With this handset, does repairable == right to repair the operating system == supported jailbreaking?

I recently went though some frustration to root a Samsung handset - it required sorting through endless blog posts linking random executables from megaupload or google drive. Fragmented instructions on various forums; many incomplete or incorrect.

Which Android handsets best support rooting/jailbreaking by the vendor which provides a supported way to both unlock the bootloader and provide root access?

“The first one’s free” as they say

If we’re not going to nationalize drug manufacturers, they should at least be regulated (competently, as to avoid regulatory capture), but I have little faith in the government to be able to do so effectively.
> Configurable.

Remember when you responded to a post about blocking ads by default?

> Internet services are run by ads. Unless we can transfer to a model which is publicly funded or subscription based (even free software needs to pay for servers and employees -- the money has to come from somewhere) then the best we can hope for is an ad-funded service which allows you enough control to turn everything off if you want to.

Now we get to the point: you support ads, so you aren't actually committed to getting rid of them.

The internet existed before internet advertising, and the kinds of websites people built for intrinsic reasons rather than for money were far superior. If Facebook et al disappeared completely the world would be a better place.

There is not a shortage of content, there is a shortage of filterability created by low-effort garbage funded by ads. If people aren't willing to pay for something, it's because it's not that great.

Patreon shows that some people are willing to just make donations for free content. And incidentally, Patreon-supported content tends to be higher-quality because they're serving donors, not advertisers.

We don't need ads. Ads are a blight on humanity which provides negative value.

> Do you have a better solution and are you willing to start working on it?

You mean the < 10 lines of code necessary to have an ad blocker installed by default?

> Otherwise, you are making 'perfect' the enemy of 'good'.

Brave is not "good". It's literally no different in any way from a browser which supports adblocking extensions.
> There exist general purposes OSes that don't just fall apart randomly, you know. For instance if I have a problem with my Kodi box, I just reboot and choose the previous generation in the NixOS boot menu.

As someone who started using desktop Linux and supported it professionally before the turn of the century, yes, I’m aware and you’ll note that I never claimed otherwise. The reason I mentioned general purpose operating systems is that they’re not optimized for non-keyboard/mouse UI and you’re more likely to get in a situation which requires more work to sort out via the CLI.

The other concern I raised was drivers. Support for hardware video decoding, colorspaces & depth, high-quality sound, etc. is certainly technically possible but also something which not-uncommonly ends with angry rants. If you are passionate about open source and eager to take on that responsibility, great, but it’s not a popular choice.

Incidentally I found that chat GPT is excellent for asking for complex csv/json transformation queries and having it spit out the correct script.
I think you’re vastly overestimating how many people would see that phrase as a meme and wouldn’t just be responding in good faith.

If you make a claim like this can you provide details?

My anecdote: I'm using an iPhone XS that has seen 4+ years of use across iOS 12-16 (5 major versions) and I haven't noticed any real consistent slowdowns. I've seen the occasional clear bug shipped where performance dips from time to time doing certain specific things, but these seem to be resolved upon the next update or two usually.

When you do have such a conversation, what would you typically give as reason?
You can watch in the YouTube app with no volume and captions turned on, it's just like reading.

Or you could read the article which quotes a couple of things.
“Sign in or purchase” seems like some archaic embargo on knowledge. Its 2023, really?
> Another big difference is that fundamental AI insights are what drives these AI innovations.

Bigger models, more compute, more data, better compute have driven a lot of the performance of ML post-2013.

For ChatGPT specifically, the secret sauce is the addition of human-vetted conversations [1].

In general fundamental AI insights come when
- (1) somebody does something that works incredibly well and others try to explain it. Transformers are arguably an example of this although there’s a ton of attention literature before that.

- (2) a ton of people make incremental steps towards a goal and at some point it becomes actually useful. ChatGPT is an example of this one.

The point I’m trying to make is fundamental AI is boring, slow, rarely drives AI innovations and that’s not a bad thing. What drives AI innovations is really good UI and good data both of which are hard to nail down.

I'm on Mounjaro and was on Ozempic before that - the supply issues for both have been a serious impact on my health. The thing about these meds is, if you miss weekly dose (by more than about 3-4 days), you are essentially going back to the beginning, and your blood sugar will be unstable for 3-4 weeks as you adapt again to the medication. You only see the real benefits from it after being on it continuously for more than a month, but so far, I've not been able to get a consistent supply for more than a month at a time since.. summer I'd guess.

Its been really frustrating for me, and has caused me negative health effects.

So while I get, yes, you should lose weight - and this drug does that (and has a whole bunch of other positive health effects), the idea of this going to someone who might only be 30-40 lbs overweight who does not have T2D, infuriates me.

Without it, even on insulin, even fasting, my liver pumps out glucose constantly, I can fast for close to 24 hours before my blood sugar falls off enough to start to be low.
I use an 6S that I bought in 2016. It is on its 4th battery replacement. So I've got almost a full 7 years out of it. It won't receive any major iOS updates anymore, but will still receive security updates. I'd continue down this path for another 2 years, but as a non-iCloud user I want iCloud Advanced Data Protection to sync Notes and Messages.
There's a specific issue with young children eating button-cell lithium batteries, which I'm guessing is what your Garmin device uses. Australia appears to have a law requiring the battery compartments of such devices to be child-resistant.

I'm not sure if any countries have similar regulations related to larger Li-ion rechargeable batteries.

Yes, but is not only the right to repair. For how long Nokia is willing to manufacture spare parts for this phone? A year, two? What if after 3 year my phone breaks and I can't repair it not because a repair issue per se but because of part availability. This already happened to me with a Nokia 7 Plus, which is a phone I like because it came with Android One. Now on the tech side, the phone is just fine, camera specs, screen is really good, battery is still good. I broke the charging board and the screen. Original parts for it no longer produced, only OEM ones with lower quality. So I would take this with a grain of salt. So will I need to buy the phone and immediately a pack of spare parts just in case because tomorrow they will be no longer available?
Last time I used LineageOS while you got the Android updates on most devices the underlying kernel and drivers were stuck at whatever the manufacturer originally shipped, and that included a bunch of security problems on most phones. Android security and updates is still a mess after all these years. For a while Android One seemed to help and I bought all my phones off that list, but even that's now gone. At this point anything that's not a Pixel within the (very short) support window is probably a big risk. Google really screwed this up.
So they did even better than that because that plan didn’t make sense. I’m glad for it, and I’m angry at the hall monitor type attitude that would want to punish them for doing the objectively better thing.
Yes, but the GC needs to be scheduled quite a lot for it to work as expected
It's useful, it's incredible, but everyone wants it to be a revolution, similarly as crypto currency was supposed to be, which it's not.
... and I think that is really important, because it gives the impression to the public that their plastic waste doesn't matter, because dow can recycle it into a running track. Now we don't even know if they can do that, this is good journalism. The important point is what if they were beyond reuse? What would they have done then? I suspect an Indonesian landfill is the answer.
I have bad news for you about the performance of flagship Android devices from 2017, man.
Since when has Apple ever made an easily repairable budget anything? This is a niche in which Apple is non existent.

It should be able to sync its clock slowly from the GPS signal. But I have no clue if the feature is actually implemented.
They do have a reputation for leaning a bit right, although it looks like Nate Silver thinks they're only slightly to the right, and reasonably reliable.
I, personally, do care. But I saw lots of computers with old Windows, like XP, 2003 and so on. On my current work we have dozens of customers with Windows Vista which causes lots of headache and significantly limiting us with development tools. Well, it works for them, so who am I to judge. All I can see is that not everyone cares about security updates, including Windows workstations which handle quite important data.
You equate VC with tracking and then equate VC with anyone that provides money whatever the intention. By that logic, you imply that anyone providing money (including a mom for his 14yo son) will track everyone and gather a lot of stats and push an app ? Remember WhatsApp did cost a few bucks a year and was self sufficient, it was bought by fb not because of cost of operation but to ensure market share.
> racism in this country right now primarily exists because it drives votes

as opposed to people just actually being racist or what?
ChromeOS uses Wayland as a bridge between Android and Chrome because it's a politically neutral technology neither of them control, and thus can both agree on implementing. It's not about integrating better with other Wayland compositors or the wider Wayland/Linux ecosystem, it's about using Wayland as a piece of technology to sling buffers back and forth between two different camps who are otherwise on bad terms.

ChromeOS implements a Wayland compositor to support Android apps running as Wayland clients. Chrome being a well-behaved Wayland client is something completely different.
> UK just immediately follows whatever the US does, even if it is economically suicidal.

What is a good example?
There's a form of broken window fallacy going on in green policy circles. Particularly the Cash for Clunkers program, and California's recent banning of trucks made before 2010. It is an attempt to drive demand and raw resource extraction to produce new equipment, by destroying existing supply of refined goods and driving up prices. Used cars are scarce now. Opposite of reduce/reuse.
If the state condo laws say it is, then yes. This is in Florida, not exactly known for such a great body of condo law. But even in places like New York, Illinois, Pennsylvania, etc - with a long, long history of condominiums, this is going to be allowed.

All the condo units but one were owned by the company. That’s a huge red flag, to the point that you’d never be able to get a federally-insured loan to buy in this building. Generally anything less than 50% owner-occupied can’t be financed - you’d have to pay cash, your real estate attorney will tell you to run away, etc.
Is it? I didn't know.

I'm still not sure of the wisdom of making the term verboten. The correct answer isn't "it's not ok to be white"

I suppose it's the same with black lives matter. I should be able to agree with the statement that black lives matter with out signing up to their politics.
The Librem 5 is still on backorder as of today but is likely to reach shipping parity later this year.

Not exactly top-tier hardware-wise. But the Librem is running a mainline Linux kernel, so it will have a decade or more of software support and security updates.
Again: literally everyone in this thread agrees that it's preferable, and nobody is mad.

The error here is in "they": Dow doesn't get credit for doing the preferable thing, because there's no evidence that it's what they intended to do. All available evidence suggests that Dow intended to do a worse thing, and someone saw a business opportunity within Dow's apathy.

Went through the syllabus. The content is really useful since I spent most of my post-graduate years reading man pages for various debugging tools.
Legit question: What does that have to do with anything?

More specifically: Why does being an epidemiologist qualify you to have an opinion on gut microbiomes?

Even more specifically: DO you have randomized, controlled trials to point to? Otherwise, this is just an argument from authority, and one who's experience is not clear is relevant.
The iPhone does not set any bar for budget phones. Irrelevant.
You get quite a lot of downvotes around here, just for quoting facts.
as opposed to you good faith assuming that 20% of black people don't think it's okay to be white?
Moderate consumption was previously defined as 1-2 drinks per day for men or 7 a week, which does not seem moderate at all. This guideline has recently been changed in some countries to 1-2 a week.

a 1.5 fold increase of risk is not necessarily significant if the baseline risk is low, but notwithstanding, I'm not convinced that actually moderate consumption of alcohol poses much of a risk.
+1 for also looking for a tool like this (online or otherwise) before, and being disappointed with what I found previously. Two projects immediately spring to mind: firstly, we have a theodolite to align some lab equipment, which I'd like to add a live digital camera to, and secondly we're designing a material heating system based on halogen tubes, for which we need to optimise the shapes of reflectors around the bulbs, subject to some geometry constraints.

I'd not seen the sharedigm.com platform before either, possibly itself also interesting for other things.
Don't worry, pure android versions also made my phone slow.
The goal posts have been moved again though. Now that we have equality its not enough, it's equity. It used to be same chances, but now they want same outcomes.

Racism is just a business at this point. The self proclaimed diversity experts have no desire to fix anything since this is how they sell their books and diversity trainings.
I missed that sentence. Skimmed to quick.

I readily admit my mistakes because I treat this thread as a discussion not a holy war. Next time I recommend you do the same instead of assuming something is "inflammatory" because you've been outright rude. It's a poor display of whatever you represent.

Anyway this conversation is over. My question is answered and I have no wish to discuss anything further with you specifically. Good day.
The US (and likely all countries) will need a Department of Long-Covid Treatment.

I assume we will find a way to rehabilitate them in the future in a general way.

you can look up the Ben Garrison comic about it to get a brief, obviously-biased overview. though depending on your political views, you might be inclined to think that it was just a broken Scott being right twice a day. however, as noted his brand was "triggering the libs" for a good long while there, and it seems he's returned to it now (though in reality he's triggering almost everyone), but for awhile there he did the face/heel turn and "triggered the cons", before turning again for his current schtick. we have a word for that and it's "trolling".
Huge gray market for this stuff. I detailed this in an earlier discussion of the same compounds[0]. It's awful that people like Kay would be forced to non-FDA approved versions with a "mystery-meat" theme to them, but they can be had for $10-90/month, which is a huge improvement over the $1,000/month they're staring at now.

And the trolls were proven right, apparently. The correct response to trolling is to not take the bait. But people seem to be devouring the bait. Disagreeing with the statement "it's okay to be white" is just such a bone-headed move that I'm more frustrated with the people responding negatively than the people asking the question.
Out of those 204 plenty are the exact same functionality for different types though.

Sure, there is invokedynamic/static/virtual that is a bit more complicated (they basically do runtime linking at first run), but I have implemented them and it is not harder than other pieces of a runtime.

Every method has an exception handler description, which is basically a series of instruction address ranges — if the thrown exception came from there, it jumps to the handler specified by the first match. If not, it propagates up. “Finally” clause is syntactic sugar only.

Sure, these are hard to get right, but that is inherent in the domain to a degree. You need many many “integration” tests - I wrote a test runner that runs the same program with OpenJDK and my implementation and compared their outputs.
How many people in the UK need a life saving surgery (urgently, otherwise they’ll die), but don’t get it and are left to die?
This was my first thought too. The tools talked about in the link are useful but they aren’t really computer science. This was also hit home in my CS courses. I was being taught the science behind computers, not necessarily the practical application of them.

Right, and that won’t cut it in many areas of California.
How tall are these <150lbs people? How old? Are they men or women? Do their doctors think they show signs of possibly getting diabetes in the future? Obviously if there's a 5'10" 25 year old male with negligible risk of diabetes, they should keep their current weight or even increase it slightly by changing their body composition from majority fat to majority muscle by doing exercise. If someone's short, old, can't exercise for some reason, and might get diabetes at some point, there could be a role for a drug there.

You mention parallel computation and being open for discussion.

My favourite area of computing is parallel computing and multithreading.

My toy multithreaded interpreter in Java can communicate integers between threads with message passing. I never got around to communicating complicated objects because I'm not sure how to solve the garbage collection problem with compound data structures/object graphs AND sending objects between threads. I'm currently relying on Java garbage collection at this time but I have played with a garbage collector written by Matthew Plant (http://maplant.com/gc.html), so if I were to implement my language in C I could also be inspired by Pony's reference capabilities.

Since my interpreter is a simple imaginary assembly interpreter I have instructions for "sendcode" "receivecode" which tell a thread to do a remote jump. There is also a "send" and "receive" instruction for sending data between threads in a thread safe manner. This uses actor style mailboxes behind the scenes.
The DNS data is still not encrypted over the wire, and clients could use their own local resolver which in turn uses the private resolver. This local resolver will most probably be designed with the assumption that DNS data is public.
Yes it is different, and the difference between gov edition and ltsc is that. The gov edition isn't designed for long term support without change, but to increase security of windows and remove all the telemry and forced integrated services from Microsoft.
