Well, yeah, they always do. Republican admins always leave the economy in the shitter and saddle the nation up with debt so that the incoming Democratic admin has to spend all of their time bringing the economy back up to speed rather than implementing effective reform.

Uhhh, so much for the free market Republicans spent decades championing

Obviously the duel wielding rouge

No, they’re absolutely not. Check out tricky store and play integrity fork to see how we’re faking a trusted environment on custom and rooted roms. You can pass new basic+device integrity (equivalent to old strong) with a valid unrevoked keybox on A13+ and strong on <=A12.

It’s a new stage in the arms race for sure but it’s still possible to bypass until all of the keys used to sign keyboxes are revoked.

Edit: the device fingerprint is just as important as the keybox too, either can cause you to fail integrity checks. It’s way more annoying to manage than the legacy “just flash PIF” bypass ever was.

Stares at rooted A13+ phone passing 2/3 new integrity checks

It’s possible, but it’s annoying.

on devices running Android 13 or later.

Sounds easy then: stay on the latest Lineage that does not incorporate A13.

This isn’t viable. You can’t run an older android version than a device ships with and eventually older hardware will become obsolete enough that it won’t be able to connect to current gen mobile networks.

For now, sure, you can run android 12 on an older device and bypass integrity easily, but sooner or later that won’t be viable.

I use dd regularly to back up and restore disk images. It’s not particularly hard to use but like sudo rm -rf it absolutely will eat whatever you point it at so you need to understand what the command does and pay attention.

Gee it sure is good we have well funded competent national cybersecurity folks and didn’t lay a bunch of them off

Always remember to say please and thank you

Not enough plaid skirt IMO

I just had my morning coffee and I need to head to the bathroom to create some content

Looks like the AI has trained on enough “this looks like your homework assignment, good luck!” comments

This is what happens when you train your magical AI on a decade+ of internet shitposting

The same technology the billionaire class wants I use to eliminate payroll entirely

Old thin clients and mini PCs are great for this. Many either have a half sized PCIe slot or can take a second network interface using the WiFi m.2 slot and a 3d printed bracket to mount the nic port.

You’re best off splitting the routing and WiFi tasks into separate hardware. Buy yourself a used ruckus unleashed r550/650 or r510/610 depending on how much you want to spend for wifi then run routing on whatever hardware is fit for purpose. I usually slap OPNsense on something like a dell/wyse 5070 j5005 mini PC, any mini PC with a PCIe slot will allow you to build a 1/2.5/10GbE router with open software. Chinese N100 router boxes are cheap now too, or you could reuse an old mini PC of some kind.

I don’t like rolling my own router using arm boards anymore, router distro support for them is unreliable and j5005 pulls <10W anyway.

+1, I absolutely loathe the twitter model of discussion because it’s a huge mess of out of order replies and random spam. Individual discussion posts with tree threaded comments are way, way, way more effective at keeping discussion relevant and directed. Also +1 re: moderation, social media functions best with effective, vigorous, moderation and the twitter model just sucks there.

Not as badly as you’d expect, modern compression is pretty quick using the lz*'s and you’re only expending cycles when you’re hitting swap

We joke but zram swap works wonders on low resource systems sometimes
