If you wanted to test it, you could try sandboxing it to run as an unprivileged user with access to nothing else on the operating system. They claim it will run without needing sudo or root.
I’m not gonna test it though. I’m not willing to use a distro that doesn’t let me compile and install my own kernel modules.
[edit] I read a bit more, looks like they are allowing unprivileged code into the kernel. That’s apparently what eBPF does.
Stay far away from this project.
Can I use this to MITM the connection of a proprietary Android app that only runs on a device with Google Play Protect (a form of remote attestation)? And then reverse engineer the API?
You do own the game, for most games sold on GoG. (Not the copyright assignment. The “game”, or “copy of the game”, however you want to refer to it.) If you buy a game as a disc, in a store, you own it until you take it home and find an EULA contract that takes away that ownership. I don’t believe a clickwrap contract has any legitimate effect, but I don’t think the courts would be on my side.
For image generation it does. They give negative prompts like “wonky”, “creepy”, and “ugly”, and the image generator evaluates how well the generated image matches those prompts, and produces images opposite those parameters.
Some poor artist in the training data not only had their work stolen to train the AI, but also had it labeled ugly and wonky.
You can’t. Most apps resist being backed up. Seedvault is the most often recommended backup tool for Android, but it only backs up apps that allow themself to be backed up. You’ll get your SMS messages, call history, contacts, and files visible in file manager. But most apps, and almost all proprietary apps will not have their app data backed up.
You’d be surprised what kinds of things have firmware (although maybe not, if you work in IoT). A normal dumb fridge, a normal dumb dishwasher, most ovens, and definitely microwaves will have firmware. Even if they have no interface to update it. In some cases, the firmware was written using a chip programmer before the chip was soldered in. But there’s still firmware. Any appliance with a clock will have it, because otherwise, you have to implement a clock in a CPLD or discrete logic gates or something. A microcontroller is just cheaper.
I hope he is imprisoned for his crimes and lives in jail for years to come. He’ll be forbidden visitors, same as other gangsters are not allowed to meet with other gang members. Eventually, all of the Republican politicians who supported this administration will hopefully be imprisoned for life.
A gang of armed thugs trespassing on private property don’t have a right to self defense.
I usually leave comments enabled on my reviews. But any negative review usually attracts a torrent of verbal abuse from fans of the game, and then I have to disable comments.
I can’t access this site because of a Datadome block.
I think this is a better representation of Debian (the beard is important). https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Ken_Thompson,_2019.jpg
GOG is a platform for selling closed source software. If the client was open source, would you be willing to use it to buy and run closed source games? If so, why are the requirements for the client different from the games?
Shadows of Doubt. These achievements are not rare because they are difficult, but because they are tedious. Most of the ones listed here are just repeatedly eating a food item, which costs almost nothing (1200 credits for solving a typical case, 700 for an easy case; 12 credits to buy a Croque Monsieur, the most expensive food in the game.)
Rat Catcher: Solve a murder while your PoV is at the ground, but you can crawl up walls, and also nobody will talk to you. This achievement is rare mostly because this game mode was added a few years after this game peaked in popularity.
Spare No One: KO everyone in town, in a game where you are discouraged from using violence. Finding a katana and knocking out everyone you see on the street is easy enough. The real challenge here is keeping track of everyone. Some NPCs glitch out and get stuck in their houses, never go outside, and never come to work. You’ll have to identify them, find out where they live, and hunt them down. Some NPCs have accented characters in their names, making them difficult to search for on the computers in game, which do not allow you to type such characters.
If you make a case board to keep track of everyone, the case board takes exponentially increasing time to open for each person you pin onto it. By the end, it was taking me about 5 seconds each time I opened it. That was in a custom procedurally generated town of the smallest possible size – it would be worse on any of the stock towns.
Out of the Red: pay off 10,000 to a loan shark in 1,000 credit increments, one payment per day. Raising 10,000 can be done in half a day easily. Paying it off takes for ever. You can’t make payments early. Each one-day wait takes a few minutes, since the game has to simulate every NPC in town. And remember to turn off the procedurally generated murders, because otherwise your loan shark might get killed, and you can’t make payments any more (it happened to me, and I had to load a save.)
Seedvault doesn’t backup apps whose developer chooses not to let you back them up. It doesn’t backup the encrypted keystore or the tee. It misses a lot, because Android fundamentally puts developers above users.
Isn’t the solution obvious? You need more money, so increase the tax revenue. The easiest way is to end the limit on social security taxable income. Right now it’s like $200,000. Any money above that isn’t taxed by social security. So it’s a totally regressive tax. Make it a flat tax, with all income taxed equally, or make it a progressive tax, with larger income taxed more.
Second most obvious solution: make dividends, capital gains, and unrealized capital gains taxable by social security.

You were never tutored in analogue calculations. Analog doesn’t mean “everything that’s not digital”.
If they’re going to keep doing ALPR cameras, license plates should be abolished, as they are compelled speech.
