i should clarify to the like 2 people that know me that are active here
the domain TLD of my handle being .uk does not mean i endorse or am a resident of the associated goverment
its just half the price of what a .mk domain wouldve cost and doesnt require me send handwriten letters in 2026

hello internet
how do i stop secure boot on a rk3566
the chip loads ibloader from emmc that then loads a signed uboot (inside a FIT i think) that then loads a signed kernel (inside a FIT too)
it might be some dev cert i cant find
the uboot and kernel also load from sd card if one is plugged in

out here imaging my sd card

god can this shit just boot of the sd card so i dont have to transplant the rootfs from the emmc with the bootloader from the other sd card

who needs a rewind when you can export the SQLite db of newpipe in a zip and then parse SELECT * FROM stream_history and then SELECT * FROM streams where uid = stream_id and then have your plagiarism machine generate code that tells you how many days youve spent watching LTT

remember how people praised discord for promising to implement DAVE (their e2ee for calls, not messages cuz yk messages should be handed over to law enforcement)
it's been a year, and unless i am mistaken, the calls are still not end to end encrypted
why's that?
surely it's not the native kotlin app

you ever wireguard in to your home network to send a WOL packet to your pc thats off to ssh into that pc to login with ydotool and then disable the main 4k monitor with kdescreendoctor to start sunshine to launch steam to finally be able to tell steam to download a game with the steam android app

i wish wps office a sweet ceasing to exist
forcing me to download an app to download a pptx hosted on your cloud storage thing is just unacceptable

has anyone told microsoft that there's practically nothing preventing them from making something like an xbox vm on windows for the xbox allys?
if not that, then put some money into xenia or whatever and prove that you actually care about backwards compatibility

is it me or is it sketchy that the ministry of digital transformation is not verified on instagram and is sharing test builds on main through a qr code

oh and you trust your phone to be your ID card and driving license???????????

cant wait for fake ids to be easier than ever

why does signal turn my whole phone into a slideshow when it's playing the animation that someone else is typing?
has been that way on my old phone for more than a year
like do those 3 dots take 100% of the gpu or is the display matching its refresh rate to those dots and not my keyboard inputs

are there consumer wifi routers with more than 512MB of RAM that run openwrt?
im thinking:
-install wine with box86 or qemu a winxp system
-install & run vocaloid 2
-miku is now actually in your wifi

the people defending the current state of bluesky's ""federated nature"" i guess haven't googled pds to migrate to and gotten only one result while on mastodon, lemmy and matrix it's the first thing you do when signing up, picking which server you trust with your data with more than one where

why cant i deny android.permission.DETECT_SCREEN_CAPTURE or android.permission.INTERNET the way i could say android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION?
why do apps inherently get to know if they've been screenshotted or get internet access without me giving them either on install?
September 27, 2025 at 1:28 PM
could a normal household router emulate windows xp and run vocaloid 2 so that miku is actually in your wifi?
