Huawei alone is probably big enough to sustain several fabs.

I'm just glad it got released. Even if it's not great (and I hope it is), people put a lot of effort into it, only to see it cancelled as a tax write-off. That must be pretty soul crushing.

It's even worse than that. Tariffs are levied on you through higher prices. When they get thrown out by a court, the refund goes to the retailer, with interest on top which is paid for from your taxes. You are being robbed blind by these tariffs.

Given what Apple did with Airtags, it seems doubtful that they will make any meaningful effort to enforce the privacy rights of others. When Airtags came out they were a stalker's dream, and even now, after Apple make some token effort to address the issues, they are one of the most effective way to track someone without consent.

I can tell you have never been to Germany or spoken to a German person, because what you apparently believe about that country is complete nonsense.

Tell us, how do you think the UK is doing? The Telegraph, the source of this story, makes up the same crap about here too.

I hate to sound like Infowars, but you are being lied to. Nobody has been arrested for calling a politician a "dummy".

The Telegraph is a British newspaper that often lies about this stuff, including when people in the UK are arrested. They claim it was because of a tweet or because a journalist reported something, but in reality it's because they made a credible threat or tried to interfere with an on-going criminal trial.

In this case it's true that technically if someone makes a complaint a person can be prosecuted for insults in Germany. However, the reality is that any prosecution has to be balanced against proportionality and freedom of expression, and will rarely proceed unless there is some other aspect of the crime that warrants it. In this case, the person in question has been posting anti-Semitic stuff on Twitter, and Germany does actually have strong laws when it comes to things like holocaust denial and promotion of Nazi material.

Come on, just think about it for a moment. If people were being prosecuted for insults in Germany, every school kid would have a criminal record and there would be North Korean levels of paranoia.

Just wait until you try to download the bootleg video and end up with a copy of Musk's AI-generated "historically accurate" version instead. D'oh! :)

The key point here is that data's security isn't enforced by the OS, but rather by the encryption algorithm itself. A non-OS forensics terminal would see the raw contents of the hard drive, which is to say, blocks of random-looking bytes that might be encrypted data or might just be truly random; without the corresponding password, there is no way to to tell.

Without any password (and assuming a robust encryption implementation), that's as far as they'd get. With a password, they'd be able to decrypt the blocks associated with that password and view the files for that account, but not any of the other blocks/accounts.

At that point, the FBI's nerds might well suspect that there are other accounts on the phone that they don't know about, but short of coercing the phone's owner into providing additional passwords, that's as far as they could get.

It shouldn't be, but it's so hard for graduates to get through the door because every job ad demands experience now. Employers don't want to train or develop talent. The whole thing needs fixing, but it's the tragedy of the commons where most employers just see that they can demand experience and put no resource into training.

They probably think that an ad blocker isn't original enough, because many other browsers have them. Not a unique selling point, and to be fair they are probably right.

Unfortunately there aren't any other good options for running uBO. Brave is shady, nothing else both supports full uBO and a reasonable set of other features. Firefox is the only choice.

Google down-ranks websites that show something different to its crawler and to the user. It's a classic SEO technique that they have been demoting for many years.

Try one of these brushes: https://www.aliexpress.com/ite...

My car isn't all that interested in most toys, but he loves that brush.

It feels like they will try absolutely anything to reverse the falling user numbers, except improving the core browser.

New UI skin, crap on the new tab page, AI... Meanwhile tab management on Android still sucks and there is no passkey/TOTP handling in the password manager. Great job, Mozilla.

The bigger picture here is that students don't view university as an opportunity to learn skills that employers want, but rather as a necessary expense they have to take on to get a job. It's become apparent that working hard is not rewarded anymore, but blagging is.

Interesting but how would it work? Some kind of crypto token?
