Amazon also could try connecting to their sidewalk network that many of their ring/Alexa devices use to connect to a neighbors 'internet' via LORA. so asking specifically about wifi is not broad enough of a question.
At least we know what their (most anyway) answers are and security researcher can start verifying where they are lying. You also have to look very hard at the language used to answer many of these questions as words can often be misleading...
It is not, nor of open source software in general.
In general, the saying is specifically in reference to services provided over the internet -gmail, youtube, whatever. Note that you don't have the right to modify them and share your own copies -they're closed source.
So no, it's not true of Linux, GNU, etc; it's an apples and oranges comparison.
I also think Sherline machines have good value. Were they the cheapest, no, but they actually worked really well in my experience for their size. I only have their manual lathe, but it was a MUCH higher quality machine than my larger 7x14 from china. It just feels like everything is either a race to the bottom, enshittification and/or both right now.
legacy media is not proactively manipulating us via algorithmically amplifying division to increase 'engagement', all to sell us some ads... I do think Zuck is one of the more harmful figures in modern history. That being said, good open models? great!
yup, ALMOST correct documentation, but using 10-20x the amount of words needed to actually document. Is it better than nothing? probably? Much of it is really hard for a human to read though. So if the purposed us to document what the AI did for a future instance of an AI, sure, but I don't see the current tech replacing technical writers in the short term.
sadly it seems like most of the banks I use still enforce antiquated password rules, no MFA and rely on stupid questions most of which can easily be guessed from public records.
That might change on the country. At least here in Brazil, all logins require some sorth of MFA.
This changes by banks, some send code to our phone number (thought WhatsApp or SMS), others send SMS+email + face ID. All of them require at least the face ID. Some biggest banks requires you to go to ATM to authorize app access. You insert your card, password and authorize there.
There's Mercado Pago, which supports passkeys and standard MFA too. So you can store on bitwarden even.
Just the other day I was creating an ID on a government web site, which offered a list of security questions such as "Title of your favorite movie" or "Someone that you admired as a child" and the answer was not allowed to have any spaces.
Security questions have always been ridiculous, but I'll especially never understand how "favorite [thing]" ever made it to production anywhere. "Favorite movie" can change multiple times in the same conversation.
Yet they still work and people generally don't have their accounts stolen. Why? Because security is more than technology. Stealing a bank account is illegal and you will be prosecuted for it.
No doubt preaching to the Choir here but I just generate a new pass phrase and store it in Bitwarden. If course for the non HN audience, much more confusing and dangerous.
