Fun fact: every videogame on Windows is potentially a userspace keylogger if you let it run in the background while, e.g. browsing the web etc.

Basically, any application that uses the Raw Input API can request to receive raw device events even when the application is not running in the foreground, by using the RIDEV_INPUTSINK flag.

The app will then receive every raw device input packet that the hardware sends to the system, replete with timestamps[0] and your mouse position when the event happened[1].

In the case of keyboards it would provide the virtuak-key codes and scancodes[10].

Rawinput is used by modern FPS game like Valorant[11], so if you leave it running in the background it may potentially be able to observe your every single keystroke while you use your browser, enter passwords, etc.

TPMouse, my opensource trackball-emulation script that lets you use the homerow as a trackball for your cursor[100], uses Raw Input with the RIDEV_INPUTSINK option so that it runs entirely in userspace without needing to hook to low level drivers.

It is certainly a double-edged sword -- for open source it's a convenience blessing since what you're running can be inspected directly, but in the case of close-sourced games like Valorant you're relying on your trust of Riot Games's intentions and competence.

> It doesn't necessarily mean [...] that the foundational law is fundamentally flawed.

I say it does.

Copyright was created in the age of printing presses. In order to violate copyright at significant scales, you had to be an industry player. You needed access to the expensive machines. It simply wasn't possible otherwise. Obviously, copyright makes sense in such a world. It's even enforceable since corporations are big targets.

But we are living in the 21st century. Everyone has globally networked general purpose computers in their pockets capable of copying and transmitting information at speeds and scales unimaginable to anyone in the last century. Everyone infringes copyright on a daily basis without even thinking twice about it. Copying is a fundamental computer operation, computers make it easy and natural to copy virtually anything. There's nothing they can do to stop it without literally destroying this wonderful invention.

Copyright is clearly hanging on for dear life. I say let it die.
Sure, you do. Most folks care about how they feel. Life doesn't. It won't. It can't.

As someone who has recently went through an EV shopping and purchase exercise, the dealership model has SO MUCH room for improvement.

Every dealer was immediately talking to me about financing options and specials before I even sat in any single car, let alone test drove one.

Of the 5 makes I test drove:

only 1 was willing to have the car configured with an actual single-pedal-driving experience (Volvo). Most were worried that my unfamiliarity with single-pedal-driving would lead to a bad test drive experience.

only 1 was willing to talk to me in clear terms about how route planning and mapping would work with the charging network. 2 different dealers told me I would have to download "an app off the appstore" for route planning & charging.

every dealer had some sort of dealership mark-up on the EV. Usually in the range of $1K - $3K. The Audi dealer was kind enough not to lie to us about the purpose, it was a dealership markup that he thought would be negotiable if it meant losing the sale.

Our Tesla test-drive experience - we showed up for our appointment, got some brief instructions / Q&A, and were handed a set of keys to tool around with for an hour. Another Q&A after, and no pressure to do anything else. We left without any purchase commitment, and made that separately online on our own time after more deliberation about the decision.

My partner and I went into this process sure we would pick a non-Tesla, it was the last car type we test drove after weeks of trying others. Every dealership turned us off in some way. That combined with the raw numbers (price of car, range, cargo space, towing capacity) it's no contest that Tesla has both the best EV and the best buying experience for an EV.

Everybody website is trying to pivot to doing what tiktok is good at, instead of what they were good at. Most websites are probably not going to eat tiktok's userbase.

I guess we can't have nice things because what those websites are traditionally good at isn't profitable. I can't really be surprised that monetizing tumblr proves challenging, when it seems to consist of like half starving artists, half anti-capitalist shitposters, and half young adults talking about fanfic. I remember monetizing blogging being a running joke on the site over a decade ago, and I can't imagine it's gotten easier with, you know, the economic situation impacting those demographics.
They'll probably try. Either him or someone else migrates most of it every time that site changes, but it's already suffering from quite a bit of link rot.

When you hold on to someone's money for an extremely long time, do you earn any interest on that money?
The biggest one was that Photoprism doesn't have a mobile app. It seems a lot of people use PhotoSync (a third party app) to back up to a PhotoPrism instance, but I didn't even want to give it a shot considering they don't offer the premium features on Android. Immich on the other hand has apps that are developed together with the server and web UI, so everything is well-integrated.
Singularities aren't believed to be real by physicists to my understanding. Which if true, would mean the existence of them in GR is an error of the formulation or an error of comprehension.

If you look at the tangent lines facing toward the middle of the torus they would point to a single middle point, a singularity. But if you follow those lines around the surface they would never get to that extrapolated point of singularity. Probably nonsense, but the 2d creatures can't see in 3d and all that philosophy stuff.
To me, it sounds you are going to need money to measure your preliminary design. Investors appreciate taking a methodological approach to raising rounds of money for de-risking, rather than "I need $50mm upfront to do everything."

I manage products on the board level, never been down to chip design. Are there design agencies/firms who are familiar with the processes (but are not fabs) that can be engaged to help de-risk your design / assess the manufacture-ability of your chip?
That's fair. Personally I'd like to see (and am working on) more solutions that make it realistic for everyone to run their own single user instances. Selfhosting shouldn't be any more difficult less secure than running an app on your phone.
This is an interesting find, but it's not surprising to find a woman of prominence in that era. Before agriculture really took off, hunter gatherers were pretty egalitarian and a lot of kinship systems were matrilineal.

Also, I think that it's more likely that this person was a shaman, than a chief, but that's just a speculation on my part.

In a working payment system, the scenario where someone initiates a valid dispute nine months after the fact would be extremely rare: it would be limited to a few types of physical card theft where the card owner is unable to report the card missing for some relatively unusual reason. We just don’t have a working payment system, so unfortunately this stuff is incredibly common and everyone has to suffer because of it.
Generalized oversubscription like that is very challenging if not impossible to do securely, since you want to keep workloads isolated to single tenant numa nodes.

Culture is changing constantly; the idea that there's a fixed point there is absurd, because again, there is nothing inherent to a nation other than lines drawn on an arbitrary map.

White people already do include all sorts of people -- whiteness is, obviously, not a single unified ethnicity, national, cultural, linguistic, or historical background but an aesthetic conception of someone's skin color. Because ethnostatism is stupid and intellectually inconsistent.
You don't. I currently run this setup and it's more for people who want to "definitely degoogle" more than they want feature parity with photos. This app is awesome, I intend on contributing if they need it, but it looks solid.
Or, it's super easy to roll your own using letsencrypt.

1. Buy your own public domain (such as companyname.dev)

2. Setup a LetsEncrypt wildcard certificate with DNS validation

3. Update your /etc/hosts to something like `127.0.0.1 companyname.dev`

We have this working with multiple developers, each renewing their certificates themselves. Works great, it's simple, and don't need to trust an extra third party.
> My understanding of the android ecosystem is that pixel phones are much more likely to be updated than iPhones

I don't remember the specifics, but I migrated to iOS after being appalled at how quickly my Pixel phone was losing OS updates, including security updates. IIRC, it was due to lose updates after it was less than three years old.
Because 4096 bit RSA is a lot slower and bigger and those things matter. And there isn't any upside? If you're actually worried about 2048-bit RSA (and you should not be), you should switch to one of the elliptic curve schemes.

Neat.

In some industrial GPS receivers, there was a FPGA, a very capable ADC, and a PLL. Logic was split between the analog incoming section and the digital processing section. Maxim components were used frequently as it they had excellent engineering support (sampling esp.) from the vendor. IIRC, there were Flash EEPROMs rated for 10k block writes (only!) but were reliable up to low 100k's.

IIUC, quantized doesn't mean finite, it just means discrete. Energy being quantized in bound states in quantum mechanics means that the eigenvalues are discrete, but a state can still be any linear combination whatsoever of the eigenstates.

And since spacetime is continuous, it's determines by its values on a dense subset, in particular a countable sense subset, which would make both sets of possibilities, gravity and quantum, have cardinality something like R^N.
Why haven’t internet creators become superstars?
Yeah, I could even buy the first part, I don't know archaeology and can't say which inferences about the society you can make based on the existence or absence of grave goods in that era.

But it's one thing to characterize the society of the time based on the totality of evidence, it's another to ascribe "merit and personal achievement" to one specific person.

Doesn’t this have more to do with the hardware bands available in the device rather than the carrier software installed on the phone? Perhaps as part of the race to the bottom on price Xiaomi forgoes hardware components that allow a given phone to operate on bands that are common outside the region it was sold in or the carrier it partners with. It would make sense if that was the case, because the people spending $20 USD on a phone typically aren’t going to be traveling a lot anyway

Why won't your personal devices be subject to discovery anyways?
I think it’s true that once an event horizon forms no physical force (known or hypothetical) can stop a singularity forming.

There may be some form of very dense matter that stops large stars from collapsing to the point where an event horizon forms in the first place, but that doesn’t seem to apply to super massive black holes.

For super massive black holes the event horizon grows too fast.

Would a ban on the "sale of data" ban profiting off location data all together? For example, would location based ad targeting be affected?
Agreed, and also I think most people interested in reading about sports have not been going to the NYT for that particularly because they only use it as a backdrop for their stories, which are primarily about some other topic.
Tumblr 3.0 launched way back in Nov 2007, when David shut down his software services consultancy to focus entirely on Tumblr: https://davidville.wordpress.com/2007/11/01/tumblr-3/

Internally, the mysql database schema was called "tumblr3" as an artifact from that. Or at least that's the explanation I heard when joining the company in 2010.

I don't think anything was ever versioned after v3. So that means if you're saying this is now 4.0, I guess we should expect the biggest change in 16 years :)

I did not suggest "execution of arbitrary WASM code" is something that we should be scared of - I stated the facts, and you inferred something I did not write.

> The proposed WASM shaping implementation would be a replacement for traditional OpenType layout

It's not a proposal AFAIK, it's already implemented today in the harfbuzz codebase.

I also do not think it is a 'replacement' for the traditional system, I doubt anyone will disable the ability to render the entire ecosystem of fonts out there which have not been updated to use WASM - so it seems likely it's just another point of complexity added to font rendering in general.

yes, I was doing a lot of research in this are 18 or so months ago and I stumbled on it and downloaded it.

I don’t have windows so I haven’t done anything with it yet. My memory is that it is very early lofting software and has a reputation for being a close analog to the actual process.

I have strange CAD ideas that are closer to lofting than using a mouse. My intention was to look through the source to find the “engine” and work around that.
wiki.gg is currently an excellent host, but it's still ultimately a farm owned by Freedom Games. The day will come where it'll need to give a return on investment (i.e. more ads). And it's also possible that one day, Fandom (or another large, corporate entity) will acquire it just as they did Gamepedia. Self-hosting, or using one of the smaller hosts described as "semi-independent", is the way to go to maintain self-control and not be tied to larger for-profit companies.

The "free with ads" service will "outcompete" by immediately being in basically-infinite debt, right? Is that really still "competing"?

It doesn't seem so much like "unique culture" as "the company was in-office, then there was a pandemic, now they're going back to how it was".

I love remote work, and I love that more companies are embracing both full-remote and hybrid options, but I don't get the snarking about US companies sucking because they reacted to a global emergent risk and are reseting afterwards.
There are genuine cases (travel and lodging are the obvious ones) where people tend to pay for things months in advance. I don't see it going away. If you can come up with a cheap, effective, convenient payment method to cover these things, you are on a winner. I don't think it's possible because the time horizon creates risk, there is no avoiding it.
People have mentioned SyncThing and Seafile as straight backup options.

Another option one could consider is FolderSync[1]. It has a number of cloud back-ends it can interface with, but I use it to periodically SFTP to my home server to backup several areas in my phone, including photos, camera and app backups.

Two niceties for me it has:

* Two-way sync. I'll often clean up my camera roll on my PC, and that syncs back to the phone.

* Only attempts to connect to me home server if it is on my home wi-fi.

Caddy will do this for you as long as you don't give it an ACME config. It handles the root CA creation as well as all of the certificates for any domains that you define in the Caddyfile, so all you have to do is find the root CA it generates and install it on your devices.

It seems common sense to prefer providers who are reasonably agnostic to who they provide services to. I would not use a water company that refuses to provide water to political enemies, because what if one day you become distasteful to them and they turn your water off without warning? Nor would I use a service where if someone accuses me without evidence of something distasteful, the company’s response is to immediately suspend services to you before they fully understand the story (e.g. the recent Amazon smart home “racist” incident where nothing racist actually took place but a man lost access to all his devices and locks).

I want services provided by full-time service providers, not service providers who moonlight as moral arbiters.

Picasa was ok, you needed to train it a bunch if you wanted good results for facial recognition, that being said, I did use it for our high school yearbook to make sure I had enough pics of everyone and once I'd trained it with enough photos it rarely made mistakes.
No force can be shielded fully, but that's fine, because we can make the other forces smaller using distance of time averaging or averaging over many repetition etc like we do in other physics experiments.

A scattering experiment in which we send entangled masses to fly by each other and measure their interactions sounds very possible, even if it is very hard technically.
> I do think they could and should be more aggressive with security updates. Both by releasing/messaging those separately from other kinds of point releases (improving but not great), and by notifying sooner/more frequently.

Normies usually have their updates set to automatic, so they get the updates a soon as they're out.

I count over 9 security updates for iOS 16 [1] as of July 10th, with the rest of the year to go. I feel like as soon as any type of update is released by Apple, I'm inundated with the news from many websites, RSS feeds and the PGP-signed email from Apple with the news [2] [3].
