In response my in-house policy has changed to allow purchase of 0 Xiaomi devices per year.

I have all the expensive and/or critical (e.g. boiler) devices behind double conversion UPSes - those are the safest ones and also help with brownouts. They are cheap if you get them second hand and buy new batteries. 2000-3000VA units can be found for as little as 150 euro + batteries.

I'm more tired of dozens of reposts of the same porn that I can't filter out because NSFW is a catch-all for anything 18+. I also have an issue with the quality of the said porn :-P

They (FCC) forced firmwares being signed so nobody can install their own on the off chance it unlocks TX power or frequencies not allowed by FCC.

I've had to deal with a family member like that and managed to shock them into shutting up about it in my company. "If you are going to shove your politics into everyone's faces you'll have to listen to my opinions too. You know what I think about ? I'd love to spend my weekend slowly drowning them in a barrel of cat piss, but I'm worried it's too good for them." 3 years later not a pip.

I had to skip a morning run today. That's 15 years in a row. Exercise induced asthma is a bitch.

Wait, it's physically possible to like Vance? I was sure the dislike is on a genetic level like uncanny valley.

Nothing gets republicans talking about gun control faster than minorities arming.

Not the dumbest thing they'd be wearing. Wouldn't even make top 5

Presidential pardons can only be for federal crimes and he has NY state convictions. That judge has the power to put him in jail for most of his term (subject to appeal)

  • HDCP had flaws and keys up to version 2.1 were extracted/reversed. In addition to that there is hdfury device that legally and following HDCP licencing terms downgraded 2.2 to lower 2.x versions to provide compatibility. They got smarter and blocked downgrading in later versions. Blocking HDCP older than that would also break compatibility with devices that don't support versions of the standard newer than late 2012. Add a capture card and you are set.
  • Widevine L1 keys were extracted from a Qualcomm CPU in 2021. They are also stored in Intel CPUs in SGX which had so many flaws over the years I'd be surprised nobody grabbed keys at some point
  • Both audio and video has to be decrypted and analog at some point - you can capture it if you have the hardware and willingness to e.g. grab it at a LCD display ribbon. Not as good/convenient as decrypting it, but it is an option.
