Like I feel your point, but also the ads definitely have a lot more identifiable information (target audience, keywords, sectors, etc.) they can use for detection & removal vs random posts using algospeak and other evasion tactics

Other commenters have pointed out the terms actual origins, but on modern devices it got started as a term that was used way back on the original iPhones/devices

I guess the other difference is that YouTube isn’t traditional media, the content you consume on there has no exclusivity or anything. And the creators producing it are incentivized to go where the biggest audience is (which will always be something free) to maintain relevance and gain bigger sponsorships

Something like Netflix, Hulu, Prime, etc. pays for the content in advance with MAYBE some royalties (and never a lot) and they own the media produced. YouTube doesn’t pay for production (they tried this and it failed horrifically) they pay a portion of the revenue that gets generated from viewership

This only makes sense if watching for free with ads wasnt an option, if they wanted more money they would just raise the cost of premium

Is this/the replies sarcasm? Its just a picture of an Apple store on an article about Apple, who cares where it’s located? And how does that make this worse quality journalism?

Yeah true, i do think it’s more grey than that though.

For example, i don’t really love AI but i have to use it at work for my metrics because management wants to see utilization of it. So, there’s no possible way for me to avoid it entirely, i might as well use it on occasion for stuff outside of work at this point because im already a user whether I like it or not

Lemmy has, what, like 70k MAUs? If everyone here stopped using these platforms (many of which im sure already use them very minimally) it wouldn’t be a drop in the bucket of big techs user base.

I think anyone running a home server qualifies as an enthusiast, there are more uses for home servers than just plex lol

There are definitely valid reasons to use SSDs in a server/array. One of my proxmox servers runs 4x m.2s in raidz1 so all my vms are super snappy. Depending on what you’re running you can really see benefits, for example:

• Elastic Stack
• Network storage for photo editing
• Lemmy
• Immich

Pretty much anything with a lot of metadata or tons of files will see benefits from running on SSDs, this comes with the caveat that cheap ssds wear quickly and are a pain in the ass but if you need it, you need it

Things that have worked for me:

• your bed is probably not level, i installed self leveling on mine ($30 but well worth it)

• if its adhesion, try a glue stick. It looks like a PEI sheet but that alone was not enough for me. My routine is: wash with soap and water, spray 90+% IPA (before bed is heated) and wipe with microfiber (paper towel leaves flakes behind), then apply gluestick before printing

• maybe check your bed is warm enough/preheat for longer to allow the whole bed to get to temp, though i doubt this is the case but it doesn’t hurt to try

• for your first layer: slower speed, higher nozzle temp, higher bed temp

Okay so I’ll try my best to convey what I know (I studied DFIR in college, but I work as a security engineer now):

There are two types of mobile device forensic acquisitions/collections/extractions: BFU and AFU.

BFU (Before first unlock) extractions simply refer to what Cellebrite is able to pull from the phone when it has been turned on but not unlocked for the first time, similarly AFU (after first unlock) is what it can collect after its been unlocked.

You can think about this as your phone being in two states: when you first boot it up (and I’m talking from the Android perspective, because I have never owned an iPhone) you’re required to use your pin/password to unlock the device and then it will complete its boot. Any time after that first unlock though, you can unlock with stuff like biometrics and its much faster (i know my phone when i unlock for the first time after a boot will display an “Android is Starting” or something like that while it loads up).

Bringing this back to your main question: depending on the OS version and device, what is pulled from AFU/BFU will vary. So looking at the image you linked:

If you were an incident responder, you’d probably read this chart left to right. Lets say i have a Samsung S23 running presumably android 13 or 14, I’d first look at the samsung rows, choose the second one for the version, and then id have to determine if the device is in BFU or AFU mode, and see which options are available to me. In this instance, it doesn’t make a difference because I can get user data from either (because i can brute force the password on the lockscreen for this specific device). Otherwise, a BFU extraction might only pull out surface level information from the device because everything may not have been decrypted yet.

I feel like I’m rambling but I hope it’s shedding some light, your point about the password is important but not everything. Companies like Cellebrite and Magnet pay a lot of money for zero day vulns that they can build exploits for into their software, meaning that if theres something critical (like a pin code bypass) then they could just use that and get all your data. But, there’s a lot of various data on cellphones, take Signal for example (and this is just an example, I don’t actually know): it’s possible that if signal is encrypting messages stored on the device, that even if an examiner pulled that database out, they might still not be able to do anything about it.

My final point, there’s also a high degree of secrecy around these tools. Obviously Cellebrite and Magnet are incentivised to keep their exploits quiet so they continue working, otherwise Google or Apple could just issue a security patch and render them useless. Often, they’ll have different tools that are available to different organizations: a company may have a few cellebrite dongles for internal investigations and litigation support, the details of which are kept under NDA, but they’re still likely to be separate from what an organization like the FBI would have access to. This is why it’s often hard to find information on these tools, especially updated or recent information

I have no issue with this, I personally wouldn’t use it but I get that they need to make money (which is why i have a recurrent donation every month).

If this helps them to do that, then so be it

Elections are coming up, Adams is extremely unpopular in the city and I expect him to get voted out. Unfortunately, We have Andrew Cuomo trying to regain some of the power he once had, but I don’t think his chances are great outside of name recognition.

Personally, I’m not registered in NYC but everyone I know there is putting their support behind Zohran Mamdani.

Exactly this, but to be clear he used his personal email account on one forum where he made a post promoting it in the early days. Everything else was solid and, if they hadn’t found the post, I don’t think they would have been able to link him.

A chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link and if the admin logs are descriptive enough, then it would only take one mistake to take down the metaphorical tower of cards.
