  • It’s my go to messenger, idc about the crypto stuff, it’s just a way to reward volunteers who use their servers for all the mathematical conversions, and I have been thinking of running a node myself, to make the network more decentralized

    It has some downsides though, you can’t send larger files than 8mb, and if you lose your recovery phrase, you’re compromised, and you can’t edit messages

    I used to tell people to use Signal or Element, but I noticed many can’t even sign up, Session just generates a random ID for you, and voila…




  • I have used Sketchup for more than 4 years, and after looking around for Alternatives to use on Linux, the only thing that can do the job is Blender, it’s not just for animations and 3D printing, in fact blender can do anything you can imagine, if not by itself, then by the addition of addons

    Out of the box, Blender doesn’t behave like Sketchup, but it can do so by enabling some preinstalled addons ( like Archimech, Measure it, Precision Drawing Tools, Stored Views, Auto Mirror… Etc ), also there are free and paid addons on the Blender Market

    For modeling Blender is waaay more powerful than Sketchup ( but SU is much more simpler and I find myself using Addons - in SU - for the stuff I can do in Vanilla Blender directly )

    For Printing: they both suck ( in a paper printing use case ), if you wanna print in Blender you’ll need to export to a 3rd party program like Inkscape or LibreCAD, or use an addon

    Sketchup printing is just painful, save a view, save the file, fire up Layout, import view, then print…like why ?!!



  • That’s not a hard proof, people keep saying Intel ME and AMD PSP are potential backdoors ( key word: potential ) and this argument is good if we’re arguing about: which is the best ISA, an Open ISA ( RiscV ) or closed ISA ( x86 )

    I was asking for a general example, I know that Mediatek chips included a backdoor but I only found one article that talked about it … In french…

    Mobos : I think it’s MSI ( I could be wrong ) that installed a piece of software through a Bios update, which showed they have privileged remote access capabilities ( I couldn’t find that source, sorry )

    Another example would be ASUS and Gigabyte Mobos, now the initial source says it came from the second hand resellers, but no one confirmed that… which is scary… because that would mean it came straight from ASUS and/or Gigabyte

    I was asking for incidents that you came across that could demonstrate the presence of firmware backdoors, saying having too many bugs is not a good argument, because all software has bugs.
