For passbook tickets there is https://f-droid.org/de/packages/org.ligi.passandroid/

Displays Passbook (*.pkpass) files & shows the Barcode (QR, PDF417 and AZTEC format). It can be used also when offline.

So, they are talking about a bootkit embedding itself into the uefi firmware, then the graphics show a malicious bootloader that resides in the EFI partition that can be removed by formatting.

Meanwhile Australia is going to fore carriers to disconnect customers with devices that are not guaranteed to support emergency calling over volte. As there are still unsolved problems with detecting that, the providers fall back to only allowing devices they provided themselves.

And that is why I pay for my own domain. The service can change, but my domain is eternal (or near enough for my purposes)

I wonder how fast a turnaround would really be. Can all the checks be run on the launchpad and how likely are repairs that cannot be done there?

Curtail is a wrapper around tools like pngquant, jpgoptim and oxipng. In lossless mode it optimizes and reorders e.g the compression tables. I know of no tool that does that for video data and I am not even sure that is feasable. Video is not stored as a simple sequence of images.

Sorry, I have no idea.

The relevant polkit policies should be defined here: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/src/login/org.freedesktop.login1.policy

Disabling is done with some rules like this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=152565

polkit.addRule(function(action, subject) {
  if (action.id.indexOf("org.freedesktop.login1.power-off") == 0) {
    return polkit.Result.AUTH_ADMIN;
  }
});

Hmm, never had cups-browsed enabled as I do not need network printing with LDAP or legacy cups. Discovery using DNS-SD/mDNS and driverless printing work perfectly fine without it.

I am not sure if the driverless discovery ever can generate a PPD with arbitrary commands.

For Linux maybe timekpr-next and some custom scripts to sync the time with the time limit server?

The VPN is really not much more than white labelled mullvad + the browser extension with separate VPN servers per container.

The AI will be called GLaDOS

Archiving might be allowed even now, but not with a public download library.

Some datahoarder probably has an offline copy.

ReactOS is probably a good indicator how far you can get with some limited generic drivers.

I’d argue that is still an issue of trust, but maybe more concerning society / the local neighborhood.

Or some network settings are not in the new “sinple” ui.

As a CLI there is gifsicle or imagemagick.

As a gui maybe gifcurry, tupitube or some other 2d animation tool https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_2D_animation_software

Passkeys do one thing right. They are based on assymetric keys as a proof of knowledge instead of transmitting the password.

… Spin … Spin … Spin …

… Remember that you turned off your VPN

… Turn it on

… CF: OK, only humans use VPN, no need to show the challenge
