  • Yep! Lower Corona loss too, which means thinner conductors for the same current carrying capacity.

    My hardware is too old to support MTE. I'm running a pixel 3 because I'm more worried about damaging our earthly environment with this constant hardware churn.

    I'm sorry you're unhappy that I'm happy. I'm still able to run Android 14 in a reasonably secure manner, I'm able to exchange information with other people easily, without Google getting much information from me, and that's satisfactory. My actual security relevant machinations happen on my much better protected laptop.

    Thanks for your input, have a nice day.

  • Ah well. Not that I doubt you, just wondering if they still do that and what it looked like.

    Keep on keeping on

  • Dude I'm looking at the source code, there's only a binary downloaded for enabling Safety net. Why are you making false statements?

  • Very nice. Can I use the much smaller codebase of microG instead of Google's? Even you do not know how Play Services actually works, and that's a problem.

    Further, a memory exploit that leads to compromise would need a chain of privilege escalation. There's a lot in the way of making that trivial even on stock Android. And you know what helps reduce risk of exploit? Smaller codebases.

    It kinda works, until you need to start telling your manager wtf you're working on and how much progress you've made 🤦

  • Just about all of your identifying data is stripped out by the framework before interacting with Google at all: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Google-Network-Connections

    That alone makes it an important tool. I'm not too worried about memory exploits as I don't really install apps, but it's an important feature in graphene's toolkit.

    For most people who want an Android alternative that's open source but don't have time to fiddle with it, calyxOS seems like a good solution. It just works out of the box.

    Stuck between an XSR900 or a z900rs

    Anyone have input here?

    I'm trying to decide which I like, yammie noob had a cool vid comparing the two with the xsr seemingly on top, but spec-wise, the z900 should be wild. I'm aware there are tune and exhaust kits to wake the undertuned z900 up.

    I like spirited riding, but mostly on straights as I roar off to a campsite in the mountains. What do you folks think?

    Google Pay alternative?

    Hey there, I'm looking for an alternative to Google pay that'll allow me to use NFC payments etc. Thoughts?

    I don't have a Google account, nor am I interested in opening one.

    E: Just to clarify, the payment part would be convenient, more annoying is how I don't get to use a single place for my subway/gym/ticketmaster passes.

    Who kicks a sparkplug??

    What a way to start the day. Had a spare, so it added a few minutes to my morning. Carefully cleaned the dust from around the plug, swapped, started and rode.

    NBD, but what the fuck?

    Prusa MK3s+, PETG and a 0.6 nozzle

    Hey everyone.

    I built an mk3s+ from its kit form successfully, tested a few PLA prints with the stock 0.4 nozzle.

    I've set prusaslicer to use a 0.6 nozzle now that I've upgraded, and am using PETG. Prints look pretty bad, in spite of calibrating z-offset etc.

    If you were doing something like this for the first time, what would your setup steps be like?

    To be specific, using a diamondback 0.6 nozzle, matterhackers PETG at 235c.

    Issues I'm seeing are a really bad loss of detail, lots of stringing, etc.

    eta: added a photo of a moderately post-processed part. Notice how rough the top surface looks, there's a disconnect between perimeter loops, etc.
