  • If you read the article, it’s more of an “it depends” answer.

    Most phones have safety mechanisms built in to them to protect from things like overcharging or overheating during fast charging. They will also default to a low power charging state if it doesn’t detect the correct signal from the charger.

    There is a very rare possibility that a charger may not be grounded correctly and that’s why it’s recommended to stick with big brands if you’re going with a 3rd party charger.




  • Isn’t the whole point of something like End-to-End Encryption so that not even the company themselves can read your messages?

    In that case it wouldn’t matter even if they did turn the info over.

    Edit: I read more into the page you linked. Looks like those NSLs can’t even be used to request the contents either way:

    Can the FBI obtain content—like e-mails or the content of phone calls—with an NSL?

    Not legally. While each type of NSL allows the FBI to obtain a different type of information, that information is limited to records—such as “subscriber information and toll billing records information” from telephone companies.







  • SD? SD 3? The weights? All the above?

    Stable Diffusion is an open source image generating machine learning model (similar to Midjourney).

    Stable Diffusion 3 is the next major version of the model and, in a lot of ways, it looks better to work with than what we currently have. However, up until recently we were wondering if we would even get the model since Stability AI ran out of funding and they’re in the midst of being sold off.

    The “weights” refer to the values that make up the neural network. Basically by releasing the weights they are essentially saying that they are making the model open-source so that the community can retrain/fine-tune the model as much as we want.

    They made a wait list for those who are interested in getting notified once the model is released, and they turned it into a pun by calling it a “weights list”.
