Oh for sure! Running any of the jailbreaks for iPhones has mostly meant installing a huge heap of packages from Gwd Only Knows Where

Useful for having a run-time environment to study an application from you do plan to use on an uncompromised device, perhaps for reusing older hardware for some other non security critical use case, but no frigging way would I consider using a jailbroken phone as my actual phone, with real contacts and access to real data and accounts I care about on it.

This is a case where regulation KILLED.

Basically this a was thing that was essentially marketed to wealthy tourists. It WAS done under a regulatory environment, and so those people had far more trust in it than they should have. I bet had they been forced to drag the thing out to international waters and do some sketchy bitcoin transaction to pay or whatever they would not have found takers!

Regulation of this kind of stuff simply does not work. What regulator has any experience inspecting a deep sea sub? - None.. What engineer could draft what appropriate safety standards are for something like this? - None at least not without completely stifling innovation.

Yes we know from the post incident analysis corners were cut compromised materials were used and engineers and officers on the project should have know better, but that is negligence and it is why we have torts.

Modern rail roading is a good example, we have a lot of regulation. Mostly it works, but there are still the occasional accidents. Pretty much every rule in the book has one or more corpses behind it, it isn't like someone say down and just wrote out the FRA's inspection schedule, we learned the hard way the inspection frequencies required to catch certain problems before they turn into dead bodies -> then -> we said ok everybody is going to do that.

Honestly the DOT (US or CANs) should have exactly one regulation covering something like this, something akin a product safety label that says, "the safety of traveling aboard a device of this class is not well understood, proceed at your peril"

I am fan of owning your own device so I generally consider a positive thing when this stuff happens, provide the exploit path requires physical device access that inst possible to do superstitiously, IE tether then thing and put it in DFU mode, with the full restart that implies, vs pairing some bluetooth thing or something and exploiting the running OS.

Yeah I get it it means it isnt secure to travel with it - fair argument.

This though is almost cruel to release. Most of the affected devices are old enough Apple will probably just move up their end of support plans for them. Probably harms more people trying to save a buck and hang on to old kit, than helps people who might like to play with it without the lock down..

Removing section 230 protections isn't the fix. Once you start opening that door there's no closing it. It absolutely will be done unfairly. Algorithmically displaying content has legitimate uses. The question is, how do you regulate only the harmful ones? I like seeing what I'm looking for, so I want algorithmic content, I just don't want the algorithms to be designed to make me feel bad.

They aren't. There's a reservoir, a pump, and an injector, besides the SCR. But the SCR is already present, it's just a little different in systems with DEF.

That's for freezing conditions. There's a resistor in the reservoir, big whoop.

Cooled EGR is not an either-or to DEF. You can have both.

Indeed, it's extremely laughable to think that Muslims are all Democrats, when they are part of a conservative faith. It's exactly like believing that evangelical Christians are all Democrats.

Unfortunately, most people aren't going to take the step to figure out that their conservatism is just like the conservatism of the people rejecting them.

Whether you like it or not, social media is the new public square.

We can and should regulate how the creators of social media networks take advantage of their positions of authority and control. There is absolutely, positively, and in every other way no reason why we can not or should not do that. There is no principle under which a hands-off approach makes sense.

The gears of justice grind slowly. This is by design. When you go fast, you break things. And also, no. The state didn't make them do it.

Yes, you could. But that's not the case. They know and have known. We've talked about that here a bunch. They willfully conduct psychological experiments on users and monitor the impact.

That's why there's a case... no, wait, thousands of cases.

Facebook willfully psychologically manipulates people into vulnerable emotional states in order to increase engagement, they take advantage of that by knowingly spreading false information and have actually reduced the number of people they have working on reducing the false information and replaced them with automated systems which produce false positives which punish users who are conforming to their rules and standards, but seemingly do nothing to prevent actual violations.

NOx is solved with DEF. The problem is, DEF systems which don't suck aren't solved...

To get the full power out of InDesign takes a lot of learning, but it's still recognizable and comprehensible to someone who worked on Pagemaker on a classic mac. You do have to understand typesetting to understand how to use it, but if you don't, you also probably don't need it.

A thing that often gets missed is that a lot of Adobe's users are extremely non-technical. They did not learn how to use graphics software, or DTP software; they learned how to use Photoshop, or InDesign. My mother was not a stupid person, but she was basically allergic to technology, and yet she managed to transition from doing physical pasteup with hand-done separations to working on a Macintosh and using Illustrator and Pagemaker. (This was long ago enough that Aldus was still a thing, and the Macintosh was a IIci with 5MB and a 8*30 non-GC card to run the Mac Two-Page Mono display.) And while InDesign is not quite as easy to use as Aldus Pagemaker was, because it does more stuff now, it's still quite comprehensible. I've used it for some projects, and it was still easy enough.

I'm not interested in that guy's comment, but the common connection is that most of these SMR designs require more highly enriched fuel, which means everything bad about them is magnified.

Rockets are awesome, they are probably our best means of getting rid of billionaires. Just send their ass[es] to Mars.

I just hope someone good gets InDesign if Adobe explodes. It's my favorite DTP software by a wide margin. I also hope Acrobat just ceases to exist. It's trash.

Monaco isn't on the table any more since this whole pedofuhrer thing has stained this country. Russia might be, though I would prefer to avoid that as well. Too bad. Good thing I don't have kids!
