It's likely to affect a very large number of apps, some of the preloaded Google apps are included such as Google Translate and Google Voice Typing. BleepingComputer has a much more technical article describing the dubbed Man-in-the-Disk attack. A malicious app can manipulate other app's data by injecting malformed data, which can potentially crash the app. The crash then allows the malicious app to gain the permissions of the crashed app, so if the crashed app had a lot more permissions, the malicious one now gained all of those permissions. Additionally it's able to intercept app updates just as they are about to be installed replacing other apps with malicious versions. Following the Android security guidelines for development properly stops this attack but not all developers do, hence the news. EDIT: Just realized this is different news, got em confused since I read both today. Too lazy to write a thread for the other one tho Google Translate and Google Voice Typing are affected. EDIT: Hmmm, just realized this is probably the other news I saw, woops.

Sounds like there is a sudden voltage drop due to the light. It's very likely to cause an increased amount of wear on the PSU components of the monitor though I cannot comment on how much wear that actually is.

My birthday is always the weekend right before final exams so not really.

It didn't seem that unreasonable of a statement to me. Quotes for materials are going to include the tariffs in the price since orders are placed ahead of time.

If you have a very slow hard drive, then yeah it will slow it down. It's not an issue with the software so much as it is being poor hardware.

Manufacturers can't void a warranty just because he disassembled it, assuming he's in the US. Say hello to the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act.

Have you actually taken it apart to confirm it's a liquid? My initial thought is that the plastic sheath came a little loose and now there is an air pocket. I just don't see how that could be liquid under there with your PC still running.

It's not illegal but you'd be breaking Netflix's ToS if you're doing it from another country in order to access the larger US library.

There are a list of servers that you can connect to manually or automatically. I have about 5 US servers favorited so that it always autoconnects to one of those 5 specifically.

100% a scam. Domain is 23 days old and identity of owner is hidden. https://www.scamadviser.com/check-website/collectplusnow.com EDIT: It's also not in Google search results and I cannot find any evidence of a Canadian branch of collectplus.co.uk

Performance PCs

G3258 so Haswell. The compression is very noticeable in action scenes with lots of movement.

In my personal experience, making use of QuickSync ruins the visual quality.

Is it even a LTT video if there aren't half meaningless graphs?

I'm guessing since it's installed through a snap and that's it's closed source, the Linux Mint update tools can't determine authenticity on their own.
