Prepend your command with a space and now your command is not saved in the history.

That depends on the shell configuration.

On bash, you can achieve this by setting HISTCONTROL=ignorespace but that's not the default.

Yes but the number of 4chan passes would skyrocket to be able to post with a VPN.

I can give you a piece of paper with a one time pad encoded secret, where the one time is physically destroyed. You can take all the time you want but you will not crack anything…

You don't need to attack the math, if you can attack the sender or thr receiver ['s hardware].

Good luck If I burnt the one time pad.

No, there's a misunderstanding.

You can extract the message the user entered/received BEFORE/AFTER the en-/decryption. eg. a keylogger, a screencapture, extracting memory from the processes, just recording the screen from behind the user, ...

Give me enough time to reverse entropy

Yes and also keep in mind that low-income in US is high income in most of the world!

I hate this point, so what? It's not like the lower class in "pick you region of interest" can take advantage of this localized price disparity. The poor person is poor based on their spending power with respect to the local economy and its pricing.

Using this example: a computer was an unlikely purchase for a lower-middle class person in the US, but it wasn't totally unattainable. Many people in the US probably did it, and some of them probably found some positive return on that investment.

That's not true of many "objectively" poor people in the world, who even if they could buy the computer, they might not have had access to electricity to run it.

I’m not sure what your point is? Today, many (most?) of those “poor” people have smartphones which are more powerful than those computers were.

The new naming of iPhones makes sense for a yearly update, not so much for the Neo.

Apple has products in their lineup where they refresh and keep the name. Example: Mac Studio is the same every refresh.

I personally don’t use VPN’s except for work but I have multiple clients installed on my devices “just in case”.

Tons of programming tasks requires at least 32gb to be somewhat comfortable, think of having running databases, running tests in background, running simultaneously multiple docker images, virtual machines, have one or more code projects open in an IDE with LSP (whole code database needs to be in cache), one browser with 20 tabs, and maybe one or more heavy electron apps (Teams/Spotify). You really quickly reach 32gb when doing real development.

Meh. I do plenty of development on my 32GB work macbook pro and 8GB M2 air and never notice a difference.

My work 64GB M1 Max Macbook Pro is consistently out of memory. (To be fair my $LARGE_ENTERPRISE_EMPLOYER reserves about half of it to very bad Big Brother daemons and applications I have no control over)

I have a 128GB M3 Max from my employer. Due to some IT oversight, I was able to use it for a few months without the corporate "security" crapware. Didn't even ever noticed this machine had a fan before the "security theatre" corporate rootkits were installed.

What are you doing that needs that much memory?

Personally I would just love Apple to be forced by governments to open up their hardware by releasing complete documentation of their hardware and allowing to install another os or dual boot. iPhones hardware is really good and would love booting Linux on theses. And then force every services company to provide an API to their services so we have an alternative to their app. I guess Motorola partnering with GrapheneOS will not change anything in this space because contactless payments and some apps will not work and fundamentally because the sales will be way below mainstream brands like Apple/Samsung. Governments need to step up here.

Contactless payments work in Graphene OS. Not with Google Pay, but with other apps like Curve and Paypal.

There is only one government that might be inclined to do that and thats the EU. But good luck lobbying this.

Not necessarily this, but a legislation mandating long-term (10 years) support for software and security updates could result in Apple offering Linux after they decide they don't want to continue releasing macOS for older hardware.

The features are all already here.

Yes, buried in the settings of each account on each service.

Parents want the equivalent of being able to let their kid go to the mall and trust that the movie theater will not let them in to an R-rated movie. They don't want to have to call the theater, identify the child, and say "don't let them in to this list of movies".

> Movie theater attendant is a highschooler not a member of the stasi.

And a flag on the account would be like the highschooler, right? As opposed to having nothing in way too many situations.

> Age verification doesn’t even work in the meatspace.

It works a lot better than nothing, you won't have 10 years olds getting into all the R rated movies they want. It doesn't have to be perfect, and a bit of wiggle room can even be a good thing for learning how to navigate the world.

For apps it's inconsistent, for Internet access the options are awful.

Works almost like stereograms (with duplicated object)!

You mean those magic eye type things where you cross your eyes and see 3D? I love those. In fact that would be a cool Cache Monet variant to create. Get AI to produce two appropriate stereographic views of the same animated GIF, then it's like Cache Monet in 3D. Simple concept but not trivial I imagine.
