Game pass is awesome. Played a fuck ton of games at that price. Hope it stays forever, especially with that stacking model lol.

Bro's crying but secretly wants their job

Not going to happen, quite a few phones have 65W+ chargers nowadays which wireless can't replicate

Have the primary contributers moved to CoMaps as well?

Comaps is a fork I think. Organic maps will live on

I really want to see an LLM vs LLM chess match. It'll be messy as hell.

Who?

This is right-hand propaganda

Unironically the "Men will do X besides going to therapy" meme

Just going to preface this by saying I'm not a security expert.

Phones have 2 encryptions states BFU (Before First Unlock) and AFU (After First Unlock). Self-explantory I think; when you login to your phone after putting in your password the first time, your phone will go into AFU state.

In BFU, almost everything is encrypted. In AFU if you dump the same data you will basically get a lot more information because some of the data is now decrypted. That's basically why you can access notifications, change settings around from your lock screen when your phone has been unlocked once but not the first time after reboot.

As for why PIN -- I'm not American but apparently in US you can be compelled by law to unlock your phone via fingerprint but law enforcement cannot force you to enter a PIN. More contributing factors: theoretically you can spoof biometrics more easily (I mean, people leave fingerprints everywhere), and one last thing is as a convenience factor it will help you to not forget your PIN (also why your phone will ask to re-enter your PIN every now and then)

Good god about time

The pin part is for security, your device is encrypted on first boot until you put in your pin. If someone attempts to get in your phone even via connecting your phone to a PC they can't because your phone is encrypted.
