Those are outside Signal’s scope and depend entirely on your OS and your (or your sysadmin’s) security practices (eg. I’m almost sure in linux you need extra privileges for those things on top of just read access to the user’s home directory).
The point is, why didn’t the Signal devs code it the proper way and obtain the credentials every time (interactively from the user or automatically via the OS password manager) instead of just storing them in plain text?
Then your password (your other, “first” factor) is the only thing preventing an intruder impersonates you.
You’ll still have to go through the hassle the now useless second factor puts you through, so you might as well update your second factor even if you trust your first to be very secure.

It may not be a scam per se, but it certainly is a misnomer at this point… it’s one of those words (like “enterprise” or “pro”) that have been appropriated by marketing and devoided of any meaning. AI as a word will gradually die while people gradually realize it doesn’t mean anything. Marketing consumes words (and people too).
The problem is that rm -rf shouldn’t scare you?
What are the chances something like
~/projects/some-project $ cd ..
~/projects $ rm -fr some-project
may delete unexpected stuff? (especially if you get into the habit of tab-completing the directory argument)
Nice, but the name should be AS Roma :)
It’s also on FDroid
Actually, it doesn’t seem to be there https://search.f-droid.org/?q=futo&lang=en
and available via Obtainium/Github
IDK about obtanium, but IIUC the sources are on their gitlab instance https://gitlab.futo.org/alex/latinime
Didn’t know about the flower!
Qualcomm didn’t actually choose the name because of it (they choose it because it “sounded fast and fierce”), but now that I know about the flower I’ll think of it instead of snappy dragons whenever I hear the SOC name.
Tangentially OT:
“Snapdragon X Elite”? Wasn’t the name “Snapdragon” already enough cringe? :)
How does it compare to crypto?
It’s not like a judge said it’s illegal… what happened is that a huge multinational company sent a menacing letter to a developer regarding their hobby project, and the developer —understandably— decided to comply.
Well… google mainly optimizing for its own profits and gray SEO being profitable are both consequences of the prolonged monopoly google held on search.
US only (typical)
To me, saying “wayland breaks things” is putting it backwards: at this point, it should be “[thing] still doesn’t work on wayland”.
You’ll need some kind of database if you want recommendations… Listenbrainz’s data is open, so you might find some self-hosted service that uses that database and local history for recomendations, but… why not just contributing your scrobbles to that awesome project?
They do require an email for signup, but IMO they are trustworthy and you can just use some anonymous email if it’s important to you to really stay anonymous.
Wow: they also go to great lengths to piss off their paying customers.
Anyway, I have no idea if it’s 1080p or not: I can say it looks ok on my phone’s screen, but IDK how to check what the video resolution is
You should be able to run Lineage on the shield (double check the specific model)… maybe you can try that and re-flash the stock OS if it doesn’t work for you.
That’s a great tip! I didn’t know lineage supported Android TV on SBCs
As for Netflix on Lineage: it does work (at least w/ microg - I just tried on my phone), but you won’t find the app in aurora store so you’ll have to source it on apkmirror or the like.
As much as I dislike Google spying on my relatives, I’d rather them be spied by Google than by some Chinese entity (BTW: their spying would probably not be on top of Google’s)
I don’t see the reasoning in your answer (I do see its passive-aggressiveness, but chose to ignore it).
I asked “why?”; does your reply mean “because lack of manpower”, “because lack of skill” or something else entirely?
In case you are new to the FOSS world, that being “open source” doesn’t mean that something cannot be criticized or that people without the skill (or time!) to submit PRs must shut the fu*k up.
