Well Discovery S1-2 will then be a prequel for you then for SNW since its the same actors for Pike and Spock. If you enjoyed those you should enjoy Discovery. I also watched Discovery after SNW since I wasn’t tracking all the recent series at the time.
I enjoyed both but Discovery isn’t as much of a throwback as Picard was.
If you do watch it, Strange New Worlds (SNW) is worth checking out also. If I recall correctly, SNW resumes Pike’s and Spock’s story after Discovery season 2 (same cast) and Discovery seasons 3-5 forks off with the rest of the Discovery crew.
Lower Decks (animated) also extends the Discovery story. Have not seen it myself, but there have been headlines Discovery may or may not be cannon based on Lower Deck’s trying to fix continuity issues or something as the last episode goes all multiverse. Even if true, it doesn’t sway my enjoyment of the story and characters.
That and old ass infected computers. I’ve used Linux almost exclusively for more than a decade. Fuck if I know how to fix your 10 year old windows desktop.
Can confirm, it is information they already have. Below is likely the API the telco exposes to the bureau. Each data point queried returns true, false, or a confidence score.
It is intended as an anti-fraud tool. Not saying I agree with it. Something like PGP is sufficient for building out a web-of-trust without needing to share my personal information.
No programming knowledge required.
Graphene only supports Pixels due to the titan chip. The versions with “a” are cheaper. Check when they go end of life to find the cheapest if you care about updates. So probably the 6a or 7a if you want at least 2 years of updates.
Not sure on this one.
The auditor is to make sure you are installing an authentic version of graphene. That it is not a modified version that has been tampered with (e.g., backdoors).
Automatically enables MAC randomization. This can help with being tracked on public networks. Fingerprinting techniques have gotten better though with deep packet inspection and even measuring radio characteristics. I’ve seen demos of two brand new and identical models of iPhones being distinctly picked out due to variances in the radios during manufacturing.
Doesn’t help with advertisers tracking behavior based on IP. VPNs help with “blending-in” by putting multiple users behind the same IP. Provider matters here. Needs to be a VPN provider that won’t just sell your data or cave to law enforcement. Mullvad is my preference. Paid with crypto. RAM only logs. That said, use Tor or I2P for anything you don’t want subpoenaed.
For additional tips:
Same. Just don’t become too good at it. Now I have to write whitepapers and participate in speaker panels at conferences. Ugh.
