I exited with a “lol no” when I saw the state of lightfall. So glad I did.
It’s still a shame for the devs. Quite talented people, it’s once again a case of major management fuck up and devs paying the bill…

WP ?
Based on what Microsoft themselves said we know: everything will be stored (except edge private session…). They specifically say they don’t do content moderation: they log everything.
Did you read the article?
Q. Cool, so hackers and malware can’t access it, right?
A. No, they can.
Q. But it’s encrypted.
A. When you’re logged into a PC and run software, things are decrypted for you. Encryption at rest only helps if somebody comes to your house and physically steals your laptop — that isn’t what criminal hackers do.
As a windows user I’m not delighted by this.
Edit: at this point you must be trolling…

This system basically do a character recognition on EVERYTHING the user is displaying and save the results in a very small file not that well protected.
The data is very small (I guess because it’s basically text?), seems easy to find. That means the history of all you did on your computer (apparently only for the last three feays by default,but well…) can be stolen at once, in a minuscule file.
I’m not an IT specialist, but I don’t see in which world this can remotely be a good idea…
Well I’d simply want to avoid giving biometric data to Google…
Ahaha I have the same problem. https://sh.itjust.works/post/13148131
Another thing is that the pixel8a has been leaked and that it solves the biggest Pixel 8 issue: The camera bar is thinner.
Yeah I agree, I’m more concerned by security patches than major overall.
Ah then, as I feared, my bank app isn’t on the list :/
I don’t know much about GrapheneOS, but if there is a S23 compatible version, I think I’ll tend toward this phone.
From what I’ve noted down, the main problem I had with the zenfone was a short update coverage (up to 2025 for the Zenfone 10 I think?)
Ah I might have confused the two phones. I had read it in a comment on this community a while back.
Aaaaah?
I’ll check the pixel “a” line then, thanks! :D
Edit: from what I could find, there is persistent rumors that Google will stop the a series with the 7a as the last model.
Ah, good to know I’ll check for my specific banking app. Thanks!
Same here. However the lack of security update + battery life ans slowness is pushing me toward a new phone.
A shame, it’s still in good condition. And that small form factor is becoming more and more rare…
The problem is that, apparently the software support is lacking.
It seems security updates are (very) slow to come.
It’s a shame because the concept is very interesting and was thinking of taking the fairphone 5 as my next phone. However the bad feedback regarding updates made me look into another model
Damn I was also thinking of taking the FP5, but your report of it being sluggish really make me reconsider.
It’s really a shames they do a home run on everything else and then fails just on the UX at the end…
Edit: ans reading below, slow and irregular security update is even worse…
Yeah that what I tought: if I pay, what is my guarantee you won’t collect and sell my info on top of that?
Long story short: bacteriophage are extremely difficult to fit in the current legal/regulatory framework of the medical/pharma world/system.
Bacteriophage are not stable compounds such as chemical molecules (antibiotics, etc…). They evolve and change, adapting to bacterial evolution (or just spontaneously because we’re talking about organisms, who sometimes just changes). It may be an advantage from a efficacity point of view, buts it’s a big no-no from a regulation point of view.
This makes is harder to have real trials (even if things progress slowly).
Then you have all the biological questions about injecting live virus in an patient and the risk of immune response.
Then you have the complexity of both producing phages in a stable manner (remember: these fuckers have a tendcy to “evolve” on their own) as well as shipping them (require refrigeration all the way, contrary to antibiotic pills).
Source: bacteriophage were the subject of my master thesis, even if it was a while ago.
Exactly what I was thinking xD
Ouah… 138 pages of rings ? I’ve only checked a few and didn’t find anything I found nice.
Won’t waste more of my life to see if there actually is though.
