> semi-proprietary thing like support for chromebooks

Many Chromebooks have better linux support today than any of Qualcomms laptops from the last few years.

It's horrifying that anyone takes Qualcomm seriously after their long history of broken promises.

Remember the Snapdragon Insider phone that was almost instantly abandoned? I think it never even got a single major release update.

They took everything that was open about Atheros WiFi and closed-sourced it by putting everything into binary blobs.

Most of the laptops from the last year or two are still not usable. Audio and webcams will almost certainly never be fully supported, or even supported well enough to be usable.

Passivity inducing toxic positivity abuse.

Premise perverted, FUD averted, false-victimhood denied.

A datacenter did not murder your family.

There is an old Android app named "Feedr". Many people still use it, even though it's not listed on the Play Store anymore. Not to mention "Feeder".

Nobody is going to be able to find this by name when you have such a generic one.

WHERE DO I BUY ONE?

This is not a joke. The prime thing that keeps me driving my old vehicle is my avoidance of modern corporate totalitarianism in tracked vehicles, spying, and other crap. I'm not buying something just to rent it too.

I would pay above-market.

I'm researching this right now. Maybe I've finally found my new car.

I like this reply. It's nuanced. This guy didn't post that picture to be helpful. He did it to troll, and trolling is cruelty, and defending cruelty is immoral.

The world can't be that advanced when you have people shoving their religious imaginary friends in every sentence and then feigning victimhood for having it called out.

That's some really gross toxic-positivity begging.

THEN: "You can't violate our copyright because it's ours and belongs to us."

NOW: "We can violate your copyright because we want to."

YOU: "Where's mine, and how do I make more people click on these ads?"

The posts are AI slop but not incorrect. I didn't have to look anything up to know there was some kind of bribery or insider corruption going on here.

Thank you for considering violence against corporate totalitarianism. Please choose one of the following:

A: Violence now!

B: Maybe later.

Was it really too hard to say "I am the" or add "here" at the end? Instead we get this lazy "words hard less wrds good" manner of speaking.

lol

Remember when Jobs of Apple died?

Now think about what is going to happen when Musk dies. Compare and contrast.

I got scammed on Swappa about six months ago. I was buying a used Google Pixel tablet in "mint" condition. It was really used and terribly scratched up.

Swappa staff were unhelpful and only after I opened a dispute with Paypal did I get my money back.

I don't blame Swappa for a random dodgy seller, but this was an "Enterprise" seller, whom is still selling on Swappa today!

See this reddit review, which isn't mine, but is almost exactly what I dealt with.

Reading OP's post, I can't help but wonder if they bought a Verizon Pixel. This is a very very well-known gotcha. Verizon locks their bootloaders and you can't bootloader-unlock Verizon Pixels, even after they are carrier-unlocked.

You didn't read it or understand it.

Your license to website has been revoked.

It's regrettable that you would spread misinformation, and easily explained/debunked information at that. This is a reasonably well-known issue and even with the extremely bad and limited information you provided (no model numbers or other info), I already know exactly what your problem is.

COVID saved Trump. His policies, such as the section 174 tax change, were tanking the economy in 2019, and we would have likely seen a recession in 2020-2021 instead of 2022.

His solution to COVID was to tell the public to inject themselves with bleach. Or just go get infected and let natural selection figure it out.

It was no more a joke than the racist cartoon he posted the other day.

You need consequences.

Binisoft WFC for Windows is a free outbound firewall. It was acquired by MalwareBytes awhile back, but they have not interfered with development so far.

https://www.binisoft.org/wfc.php

It has some areas where improvement is needed, but the fundamentals work and the user interface design is decent.

I am surprised it's not more popular for Windows users. All of the alternatives I've tried have critical issues which made me dismiss them as unserious.

> IPSec is terrible, huge, and messy standard that company that made it took 20 years to stop getting CVE every year

This is fact, not FUD.

Microsoft has had multiple RCE vulns in their ipsec stack in the last two years.

The big vendors like Cisco had ipsec vulns for decades.

These days the issues are pretty well known and documented, but it really is a bad standard.

Teens gets Thinkpads as hand-me-downs from parents and as used devices in the aftermarket. Lenovo has also spent some considerable efforts in this advertising space. That's why I just call them Teenpads now.

This is abusive toxic positivity, no different than "it's just a joke bro."

Webdevs still security ignorant. Actually just ignorant. Not sorry to say that because it's beyond true.

The word "advert" is nowhere on that page, so I know it's worthless.

At least half of all HN content on any day is self-serving blogs and plausibly deniable adverts.

Some good advice but terrible form. Some of you software people have a loud, pretentious, and arrogant ego problem.

With self-serving advertblogs like this, I always imagine that Simpsons episode where Bart has a pot on his head and is banging two pans together, yelling "I AM SO GREAT, I AM SO GREAT, EVERYBODY LOVES ME, I AM SO GREAT!" lol

Why don't you know anything about the history of btrfs? You would know if you knew anything, so why don't you know?

Anyone who was an adult in this industry back in 2021 remembers the wacky funding shit going on.

This is not surprising in any way.

They have a desperate need for false-victimhood.

Without their claim to victimization, they can't justify their hatred.
