  • Really depends on the phone and how the controlling organization (whether it’s a private company or the IDF) uses MDM/MAM. It’s totally possible to poorly manage iPhones, and if you do they’ll be insecure as hell. If you were to restrict everyone to a specific Android phone model with hardened software, then you could theoretically do better than deploying all iPhones. Hell, you could even put GrapheneOS on them, but that would be quite an undertaking, and I’m not aware of any company doing it at scale.

    Because of the homogeneity of iPhones and how strictly Apple controls them, it’s generally simpler for organizations to manage them and ensure all of their employees are using updated software on a relatively secure phone. So that (in my opinion) is why we’re seeing a lot of organizations just say “screw it, only iPhones allowed”.



  • This might be fine. How does Woolies store them? Are they refrigerated there before you buy them? That’s an easy way to decide for most foods: if the grocery store refrigerates them, or if they say “refrigerate after opening” on the package, then you should refrigerate.

    And many foods, even if you don’t HAVE to refrigerate them, will last longer in the fridge. I personally keep a loaf of sourdough in the fridge because it’s slower to mold.


  • Focaccia is just bread and oil. Pizza has mozzarella cheese and tomato sauce on it, definitely refrigerate. Some aged cheeses might be fine out of the fridge, but not fresh cheeses like mozzarella. I think that after baking (if you get it hot enough and the mozzarella is very crispy), pizza MIGHT be able to survive on the counter for a day or so. But I’d say it’s kinda risky, and your pizza gets stale! That’s not pleasant.

    What are the bacon cheese rolls that you’re talking about? Sounds to me like something that should be refrigerated.


  • Why do you want a VPN? Is it just for some light piracy? Staying safe on public wifi? Or do you actually NEED to maintain your privacy, with real consequences if you can’t?

    If you need true privacy, the answer is Mullvad. But there’s also more required than just switching on a VPN if you want privacy. If you want a convenient and easy VPN that’s part of a bigger privacy-focused suite of tools, then I’d recommend Proton. They make some pretty good products.












  • I think there’s some confusion here. You’re talking about Multi-Account Containers, that person was talking about the Facebook Container. Both Firefox features with confusingly similar names, and honestly that’s on Firefox for naming them.

    Facebook Container is similar to this TCP feature, but focused on Facebook. And of course it was a separate extension, so very opt-in. Now, Firefox has rolled it out for ALL sites by default, which is awesome and SHOULD HAVE BEEN HOW COOKIES WORKED IN THE FIRST PLACE!





  • I’m not expert, but I can tell you that Apple Silicon gave the new Macbooks insane battery life, and they run a lot cooler with less overheating. Intel really fucked up the processors in the 2015-2019 Macbooks, especially the higher-spec i7 and i9 variants. Those things overheat constantly. All Intel did was take existing architectures and raise the clock speeds. Apple really exposed Intel’s laziness by releasing processors that were just as performant in quick tasks, they REALLY kicked Intel’s ass in sustained workloads, not because they were faster on paper, but simply because they didn’t have to thermal throttle after 2 minutes of work. Hell, the Macbook Air doesn’t even have any active cooling!

    I’m not saying these Snapdragon chips will do exactly the same thing for Windows PC’s, obviously we can’t say that for sure yet. But if they do, it will be fucking awesome for end users.
