"supported", dictionaries are pretty cheap you know...

pro-tip: find a small-ish VPS provider with decent reviews. prepaid debit card with $100 on it & an alias. easy, lonely wireguard exit.

depends on the chain in question. some used iMessage as a way in, but (at least in the case i'm thinking of rn) it was only used to trigger an image parsing bug. in others, sms was used to trick someone into clicking a link, exploiting a bug in JavaScriptCore.

moi: "not talking about like NSO group RCEs 'n shit"

tu: "how do you think pegasus works"

you could have at least picked a different cyberwarfare company...

by that logic, every OS under the sun has massive backdoors. bugs exist, man. my point was that for the average person, a fully-patched ithing is going to be among the more secure options.

the codebase itself? besides XNU, nobody... but, given the immense amount of scrutiny placed on the software, if there was some magic backdoor (an intentional one, anyway, not talking about like NSO group RCEs 'n shit), don't you think we'd know?

the average person doesn't even know what grapheneos is. if they're either going to buy an iphone, or some generic android phone running a vendor kernel that hasn't been patched this administration, i'd want them to buy the iphone.

where's the shovel and double-ziplocs to bury your cash, silver, gold, platinum, and palladium? or the zippo to burn your prints off? get on my level, ho

not familiar, though i'm not much of a horror guy myself

i'm gonna assume based on context it's the kind of work my senior-year english teacher would have spent two classes having us discuss the meaning behind the punctuation (or lack thereof) and capitalization, with my attention divided between [i have redacted this for several reasons...]

no problem! i'm frequently described as "abrasive" so i guess what goes around comes around...

i do appreciate the CSS tip(s) -- that stylesheet is a few years old with many alterations over time, so there are bunch of weird hacks that i'm not even sure why they're there. off the top of my head, for some reason the header is a div-within-a-div: #header and #header_internal. no idea why. :P

a man of few words

 

hope i don't get crucified for self promotion, stigmata would be hard to explain to my folks

 

i am tempted so strongly to build a FOSS laptop, with either an ARM or RISCV processor, and a model f ssk. you can buy brand new model f's from modelfkeyboards.com, but they're like $400.

it would be so dope to build something like that, with maybe a 3d-printed case, but i can't justify that sort-of investment on a whim, lol.

please, help me justify a very, very poor financial decision.

was updating my coreboot tree, rebuild after rebuild, etc

pretty sure i nuked one of the flash chips on the motherboard by keeping the clip connected (and powered & all) while powercycling.

i got away with it before, but i guess i rolled snake eyes this time. those are the bad ones, right?

edit: now that i think about it, i was able to read both flash chips without issue, and reflash them. it might just be a firmware issue, after all!

 

had a long-running transcode script running on my t440p while closed -- sustained 90+ C for over a day. speakers are fucked now... lmao

guess who needs to go on ebay again
