Woah, turns out that even USB tethering boils down to emulating a USB network interface 😨
How did we even get here? Why bother with all that instead of just using wireless?!
I was always finding those guys annoying, the ones who complain that e.g. new phones do not support Java applications or newer operating systems not supporting older APIs… Except now I'm that guy! 😒

Damn, you're right, these Bluetooth services aren't even exposed on modern Android phones, I wonder if it's being supported by the Bluetooth subsystem? How am I supposed to send out hundreds of Spam messages over the SMS if I do not have access to the modem? 😖

True, it's kinda beyond the whole infosec scope, but no cryptographic strength can withstand the pliers and the blowtorch 🤷
Being decentralised and staying below the radar is way more important.

@romin
Exactly! But that's what I was expecting from such a hyped-up announcement TBH: "Okay, this part looks weak, Signal does it better",— so what? Give up a proof of concept exploit or go home!
It's not a question of "being an alternative to Signal" — for me and for anyone living in a non-free country Signal itself with phone number registration was never a viable choice.

I'm mostly worried about it because Rust newer than 1.75 is very unstable on the PowerPC machine I'm intending to host it on 😂
Probably has something to do with newer LLVM and those 128-bitwide data types, being a Tier 3 platform, you can never expect these things to be fixed soon 😫

@Hyolobrika
I'm fairly certain that a lot of hardware is still running without any mitigations at all to achieve higher performance, and yet… No real world consequences, nothing big enough to make the news 🤷

@Hyolobrika
Well, in that case it would most probably be hosted on a VPS blurring the concept of what CPU is and rendering such side channel attacks inefficient.
People are too much into timed cache attacks ever since Spectre made it a hot topic, despite this type of attacks existing since the Pentium Pro days.

@silverpill
Wow, Fediverse server software supporting MasoAPI and Rust 1.75!
Time to upgrade PostgreSQL to 15 and give it a try!

Those in the army often do not belong to the region they are in, some come directly from prison — and they are given firearms and freedoms they have never had before, is it surprising that some of them turn into animals barely having any humane qualities?

@Nick44@mastodon.uno @Tendar
Floods, fires — people are left to their own devices quite often!
So it's hard to say whether they even treat Russians as their own: shooting down a projectile over densely populated area of the city to prevent it from reaching military objects — no problem! I think this army and law enforcement act as occupational on Russian territories same as they do on Ukrainian ones 🤷
