I wondered the same thing, then I did a quick Google search and it turns out they're relatively known in Mexico
They also have a web page: www.biyubi.com
I'm using Fennec F-Droid and can confirm this bug also affected me, and I really don't know if it can be solved without an update (which is not yet available, as it seems)
I once toyed with the idea of a machine-oriented spoken conlang similar to Lisp in "syntax" by reserving certain syllables for punctuation (brackets, etc.)
One of the main problems of existing solutions is that they lack flexibility due to the poor state of natural language understanding, which is solved by pretty much removing natural language from the equation. However, it would be unusable for most people, or at least would have a learning curve too steep for it to be practical.
I don't really care about Fitbit collecting all that data. If you don't want yours to be used, just buy another tracker from the tons out there. Privacy is all about choice, so it's not as bad as i.e. Google using your search data because the room for choice is smaller (at least for me, having tried out DuckDuckGo and others and switching back). Also I'd rather have my data harvested for science and medicine than for selling advertisements or whatnot
That's the way to go I guess. But secure boot has obvious advantages in comparison. As a rule of thumb I do not trust any client-side "authentication" or passphrase input as long as there's no crypto involved. In legacy BIOS this passphrase can be bypassed easily, for instance
And so can anyone with physical access to the device. I know there's no way to fully prevent evil maid attacks, but Secure Boot helps in that no one can simply plug e.g. a Linux Live USB and wipe my disks in less than 3 minutes
In most Secure Boot-enabled PCs you can manage keys and certificates on the firmware KEK/DB variables by using utilities such as KeyTool, so that you can safely boot any EFI-compliant OS with a custom certificate.
I'm not sure how this would work on Apple devices. It seems to me they have reinvented the whole security infrastructure of their services, which it's not a bad thing, but also requires some serious hacking if you don't want your device locked down with Apple-only software. Is there any way you could possibly manage the trust chain of secure boot on devices with the T2?
Wouldn't that be great? If you think about it, it's surprising how GitHub's potential as a platform has been solely used for code up until now, taking into account that pretty much anything that can be represented as text may benefit from its "social coding" features.
Is anyone working on this? I don't even use Slack but could be interesting to reverse engineer the protocol and all and implement at least an API library or something for Windows
But I think this is only a problem from a UX standpoint. IRC has DCC, for instance, but it's a matter of building a client which e.g. inlines DCC "attachments" or displays images beneath messages with links. If IRC is truly "revived" there's a chance IRC clients grow or new ones emerge to keep up with "modern" IM systems, and IRC will still have more benefits than these (openness, ubiquity...)
