If you’re wanting to teach programming concepts, I would start with scratch instead. This can be taught to little kids or older students. It’s what the free comp science class from Harvard starts with

Thanks for sharing, I hadn’t heard of movim but will check it out

If you have info about someone getting a graphene phone to turn the USB back on, please share as I’d like to read about it.

I don’t think saying the state can torture us for info is a phone security issue per se. Especially since the only way to avoid imperial state violence is to shut up and do nothing and hope they don’t come for you anyway

Yeah tails does have graphene beat, but a lot of folks see a phone as a necessity. Graphene is best if you’re gonna have a phone. It can turn off the USB port where it can’t even be charged without being off. It can reboot itself if not unlocked frequently enough, putting the phone back into a BFU state.

Now it’s possible that there’s some exploit a state knows that is not public, but the software they generally use does not work on graphene as long as you are not running a pre-2022 version of graphene. Someone else mentioned rubber-hose cryptanalysis, but like if I’m getting beat for my unlock, then what do I care about getting charged with destruction of evidence?

In custody, your phone will be hacked when it is taken away if it’s important.

Unless I turned off the USB port…

On PC they’ll have the user install TeamViewer. I’m assuming there’s some scammers that might do this for phone

I’ve seen this at work as well. The initial internal bot we had would give pretty decent info, would have sources, would say “I don’t have access to that” etc. Now it always gives plausible sounding answers. It uses sources that do not back up its conclusions. Then if I tell it the source does not say that, it will say it doesn’t know why it said that, that the answer “felt” correct. It was useful as a search engine but now not even that

Honestly the only way to fight all the corporate and govt data collection is to end the dictatorship of the Epstein class by overthrowing then. Until we can unite against them, they will continue to limit our speech in an effort to quell efforts to organize a resistance

Last time I had an upgrade break my system was Windows ME

My employer sent out a division wide email about undefined impacts in Eurasia and the availability of employee assistance resources available worldwide… without mentioning the war or what impacts were meant other than the very broad region of Eurasia

Unrelated news: Uber is now training bears to drive cars

Fuck that, what happens when that AI hallucinates?

Pretty sure the people starting wars don’t actually believe in tux, they just talk about tux so much to convince their followers of whatever BS is needed at the moment

Hopefully more left than liberal

I’m thinking that the rhetoric on this is just a scam they’re running on the stock market like they did with the tariffs. Every other day they say some new shit and the market reacts and the pedos make bank

I paid $3.50 today

CIA false flag is way more likely than Iranian sleeper cells

If someone is supporting democrats, they are not a leftist

I was more meaning a possible nuclear hazard

It’s better to get them to run away. Sinking one if these things might have environmental impacts on the region
