Even if all support is dropped, everything is running on open source software, so nothing is going to stop working as a result of dropped support.
Finding replacements might become tricky at some point though.

It doesn’t really matter whether Zigbee was merged into something else, because it simply doesn’t have any technical means of phoning home. It simply can’t access the Internet.
There’s no intermediate corporate owned servers, there’s no proprietary software.
So it doesn’t really matter what the corporation does because it can’t affect my “smart” devices.


That depends on the kind of “smart”.
I have a bunch of IKEA “smart” light bulbs, but they are connected through a Sonoff USB Zigbee dongle. And all of it is controlled through the open-source zigbee2mqtt and home-assistant.
No one, but myself and my family, have any control or ownership of any of those devices.
Apparently I am too…


Arch is fine… It has good documentation.
NixOS or Gentoo is probably my pick.


Do whatever you want, as long as it doesn’t harm others.
Hard agree…
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ been daily driving Linux for at least a decade now…
But I haven’t found a way to run my HTC Vive on my nvidia gpu and the updater software for my car on Linux… So I still have a dual boot for those
I’m sorry to say, but this has been going on for much much longer than 30 days, but it’s true that most people didn’t notice


According to the whois data, the site is registered to someone in Reykjavik, Iceland… Not that that necessarily is correct.


You are correct. And yes that is kinda the whole point of the distilled models.


32b is still distilled. The full one is 671b.


If you’re on Android, then Firefox can indeed have uBlock Origin there too
The DuckDuckGo search engine gets it’s results from the Bing search engine


Encryption is really really hard, and avoiding some form of sidechannel attack is much much harder.
Sure key exchange also isn’t trivial, but I would say that key exchange is significantly easier. Care to elaborate?


RSA doesn’t scale, so if the message is large then RSA becomes unwieldy. So most encryption methods that make use of RSA actually encrypt the data with a symmetric algorithm, and then just encrypt the key for the symmetric data using the RSA key.
But there is still way way way too many ways to implement crypto wrong, which can completely compromise the security of it.


Yes, but Google would not have done that if nobody used Firefox


Am Danish. This is fairly accurate, a solid 60% of Danish is just random guttural sounds. This documentary however misses that the remainder is 30% raw deadpan sarcasm, and 10% English words pronounced in an awful accent.
To contrast and compare, this is an average modern Swedish television quiz show: https://youtu.be/lzv6ljgwgzs
It’s pretty clear that you didn’t actually watch the video… The video has nothing against TADC…
