Show 'em, that’ll teach these nasty fanboys! Reads like writing that got you a big dopamine rush.

I agree, commenting “Use Firefox!!!1!11” on every post remotely related to (other) browsers doesn’t help anybody, just like commenting “Use Linux!!!1!11” on every post about a vulnerability in Windows doesn’t contribute anything meaningful at all.

Look, I also disagree with what Mozilla is doing here and yes, they 100% deserve the flak they are getting for it. But - like most things in life - it’s not black and white. Firefox could still be less intrusive to your privacy than Chrome (I’m not saying it necessarily is, but it could be that way). A different example: your mail provider could track every time you login to your account, or it could analyze and track the content of every email you receive. One is clearly worse than the other, right?

Which browser(s) do you recommend/use?

iOS/iPadOS: Safari + AdGuard (+ Vinegar (optional))

macOS: Safari + AdGuard or Firefox + uBO or FreeTube

There is no definitive roadmap.

Let’s see if this really affects all Linux systems or if the stars need to align for this to actually be exploitable.

Didn’t happen again so far, so I didn’t investigate further. The qcode display on my mainboard displayed an error code I think.

Had that happen yesterday for the first time with a similar (AMD CPU and GPU) setup.

I had an “Unknown” app using my microphone on the Apple Watch from time to time. Turns out it was the handwashing detection. Nowadays it’s labelled correctly.

This can also be an app that you (very) recently deleted, but as the dot is still showing it’s indicating that the microphone is in use right at this moment. I would assume it’s a system service that isn’t properly labelled (maybe something to do with iOS 18 being so new and it was an oversight), but I don’t know which system service would need to use the microphone.

Is this persistent across reboots?

The part where it says “Unknown” is usually where the name of the app is:

youtube.com/tv is/was the YouTube website optimized for big screens. It’s basically just a different layout for regular YouTube.

OP is talking about YouTube and I can watch 8KUHD just fine on Linux.

x86/x64 code is pretty much 100% compatible between AMD and Intel. On the GPU side it’s not that simple but Sony would’ve “just” had to port over their GNM(X) graphics APIs to Intel (Arc, presumably). Just like most PC games work completely fine and in the same way between Nvidia, AMD and Intel GPUs. But they have to do that anyway to some extent even with newer GPU architectures from AMD, because PS4’s GCN isn’t 1:1 compatible to PS5’s RDNA2 on an architectural level, and the PS4’s Jaguar CPU isn’t even close to PS5’s Zen 2.

Other than that, you’re right. Sony wouldn’t switch to Intel unless they got a way better chip and/or way better deal, and I don’t think Intel was ready with a competitive GPU architecture back when the PS5’s specifications were set in stone.

The “Apple TV” is Apple hardware.

I’m not sure how that would help in letting lost people go.

How do you not do that? It’s all in your local network, how would it not work offline…?

Replace the 3060 with an equally-priced AMD card and you’ll actually get something decent for your money. Nvidia is horrible at these “lower” price points.

To me it’s something I just don’t want to have to think about. I already pay a lot for the device either way, so I want it to just work and not juggle around apps/media/etc.

My current iPhone is a 512 GB model and current usage is around 210 GB with photos already in iCloud. Record a couple of 4K videos and a 256 GB model would be full in no time (before uploading to the cloud, which can take a while when you’re on the go with flaky network conditions).

My next phone will have at least 512 GB again, and I’m thinking about 1 TB as well, although the upgrade pricing is quite steep.

It is, but then again many (most) are hosted on GitHub.

Will reflash my Deck once this hits stable as it’s acting up in various different ways.
