10’000 is super low, I remember hearing about one or two hundred thousand in recent years. I guess that was regular and not winter, but still. No wonder they ran out.

It uses a more generic shell linking method, that doesn’t just load web URLs but also file paths, including to executables.

I’m interested in this brand and their Gen 6. I kind of wish I was in the market for a phone. Unfortunately I bought a used Pixel 6 three years ago and everything is just fine with it 😄

I didn’t realise it came out already. Whoops.

The Outer Wilds

That’s the wrong game

In the old post from when the update was released a Heise article is linked, that contains indicators of compromise, and in turn links to Kevin Beaumont for the details of his analysis:

I just know they said from the start that you could buy three years at escalating prices. Then later, closer to the original end of support they made the first year of ESU free for users in the EEA, and then they made it buy-able for reward points or something like that for everyone.

tells me that free ESU support for private users will end in Oct 26

You’re probably right on that

The entire article is based on a false premise:

With ESU, you can still get security updates and minor fixes or improvements, but the catch is that extended support ends on October 13, 2026.

Not true, there are three years of ESU updates available.

Not sure what you are saying. With the order of the meme reversed it doesn’t make it obvious which point is supposed the clearer point of view…

Nowhere in the given scenario do secret keys leak.

I understand perfectly well, it’s you who doesn’t.

If the illegitimate access happens on the client which is the endpoint of the e2e-encryption then it doesn’t say anything about the e2e-encryption working or not working. On the endpoint the content is always available decrypted, for user consumption

Even if that’s all true, it’s not evidence that the end to end encryption is broken.

That sort of debug access could simply be included in the clients.

A movie is not software. It can’t control the device you own.

Ha you have no idea. They use new BluRay releases to distribute key revocation databases that block your BluRay drive from decrypting disks with older host keys.

Grid scale storage doesn’t strike me as an area of application where high energy density is important, so wouldn’t batteries with less conversion loss do an overall better job? I think grid scale Lithium-ion battery stores have become somewhat common.

I’d see gasoline from CO2 capture of interest more for airplanes, drones, ships, maybe even certain modes of long haul terrestrial transport where weight and volume is important.

The article speaks of a “Windows 365 suite of productivity apps” but that doesn’t exist.

There is the “Microsoft 365” suite of office apps, and there is the “Windows 365” offer of a Virtual Machine as SaaS.

It seems the thing that went down was the former and the ill timed announcement concerned the latter.

Still a good idea for specific cases though. An example from current news close to me: We have line ships on lake Zürich that can’t be electrified because either they are too old to sustain a major internal rework or, for some, they can’t carry the battery weight.

For a case like that I’d prefer if they put some CO2 capture stations up to keep running the ships rather than scrapping them prematurely.

… if the capture stations work, that is. Can’t trust the word of a startup too much.

You gotta get on Alan Wake 2.

Bit cruel after they just said they can’t run it 😄

I’m just wondering how many devices still use dedicated TPMs, instead of the ones integrated in the SoC by AMD and Intel. Sniffing a bus inside the SoC must be significantly harder or impossible.

If it was me I would have put Yokohama in the title. It’s a city of 3.7 million people. That way it would be clear story is about a mayor of national importance.

(To be clear this is towards the BBC, not OP, you just copied as you should, thanks.)

Wow 10 of them are almost half (or more). That surprises me. I knew it happens in arranged marriages, but I didn’t think it was this frequent.
