How long until US bans code from developers with ties to CN/RU?
That won’t happen because it would effectively mean banning all FOS which isn’t remotely practical.

It’s relatively quick and easy to fix if you have a live boot Linux usb stick …and probably a second machine so you can Google what to do. It’s just also rather worrying at the time.

I really wish Excel would work on wine. It’s the only reason I do occasionally fire up windows on my duel boot. (And no the open source / browser based spreadsheet options don’t always suffice, brilliant as they are).
My main issue is I’m not shutting down my Pi-Hole, home assistant, NAS etc etc just to plug in something like this in, and then 24h or so later shut them all down again to retrieve it again. That said I basically have a collection of Pis (passively cooled and this silent) and a Synology disk station so the power use is pretty low.
They seem to have resolved their supply chain issues for now. I could buy a Pi 5 and have it dispatched tomorrow, and I did buy a Pi 4b recently, no issues with delays or lead times.
No Mint pretty much just works.
Great thing about Mint (or most Linux distros) is that you can try it by booting from a usb stick - see if you like it that way.
And here I am amused to be reading all the Lemmy centric replies to a Lemmy specific meme … but doing it from elsewhere on the Fediverse. Here on kbin we interact with Mastodon just like we do with Lemmy. It all looks like one wonderful integrated fediverse from here!
Pi zero W has WiFi, alternatively there are hats available. And yes they can run a full Rasbian OS.
While I largely agree with you, technically it is still E2EE even if the encryption is very poor (e.g. hey look I shifted every character by one along the ASCII table).
Poor encryption could then be broken by a party in the middle.
All of that said this is a bit irrelevant, if the encryption is so poor the provider can break it at will, so can bad actors. We don’t use broken (bad) encryption for a reason.
Well they’ve conceded aspects are not technically possible - but why let a trivial little details like that get in the way? (/s)

What kind of a pro is taking photos using an iPhone?
Logical next step, hacker sues the developer for copyright infringement?
Not sure, it just taught me to write really efficient code!
“It really kicks the llama’s ass” (on Linux)
…or it once did, pity it isn’t really available anymore.
They are on kbin which doesn’t support saving comments (yet).
Indeed, and for me giving me a rough framework to modify is hugely useful and time saving. As the commenter above said it’s a tool, it’s not a team member.
In time it may become a trade-off between new (with associated features and speed) Vs tried and tested/secure.
To us now this sounds perverse, but remember that NASA generally use very old hardware because they can be more certain the various bugs & features have been found and documented. In NASA’s case this is for reliability. I’ll concede ‘brute force’ does add another dimension when applying this logic to security.
This may also become an AI arms race. Finding exploits is likely something AI could become very good at - but a better AI seeking to obfuscate?
