Wireguard vpn into my home router. Works on android so fire sticks etc can run the client.

It's in the app list for me. I set it to disabled.

Phone is Samsung s24 ultra.

Gemini is an app, I disabled that. I also shut off the key press and there's some other places you can turn off some of the automatic AI features, and also there's a setting to disable the "online" AI in general.

But that's why in another comment I said, I am still not sure I turned it all off (or even if it is possible to).

Doesn't the motorola phone have a settings screen for defining what the button does? For Samsung they like to re-purpose the power button.

First of all, it brought up bixby. I turned it back to powering off the phone and disabled bixby.

Then, with the new update they re-assigned the power button to gemini. So, I turned it back to powering off the phone and disabled gemini too.

However, the problem these days is that I'm never completely sure I've turned off all of the AI nonsense on my phone.

Pretty sure I disabled Gemini as one of the first things I did when I got my phone. But, yes when I read that, to me it did seem like a serious overreach for something that was going to be "on by default" for most users.

Yeah. The suggestion I saw was that instead of retracting the gear they mistakenly retracted the flaps.

Now in the video the wings do look quite flat. But yes, it would be hard to say for sure in a video of that quality at that distance.

The descent looks (to my untrained flight sim eyes) to be controlled albeit without power.

At 400ft agl they had very little options most likely. Not even much choice in what they hit.

Very sad all round.

Linux secure boot was a little weird last I checked. The kernel and modules don't need to be secure boot signed. Most distros can use shim to pass secure boot and then take over the secure boot process.

There are dkms kernel modules that are user compiled. These are signed using a machine owner key. So the machine owner could for sure compile their own malicious version and still be in a secure boot context.

They're deporting themselves now too? That's efficient.

Yep. Also, I did clarify that I would usually do an overall upgrade at the same time.

[–] r00ty@kbin.life 0 points 2 months ago (3 children)

I get the message there's an upgrade. Say I'll do it myself, go to console.

yay -S discord (or more likely just do an overall upgrade and reboot, what they hell)

Restart discord.

Should it, or should it be "1"? (just removing one, one)

It is if you leave the keys in the ignition.
