  1. THing is it's not just phones. TBH the bigger concern is not phones but on their telcom side which Bell at least has a massive investment in as part of GPON / fiber. On the CPE side only newer Homehubs have a built in ONT otherwise you have another white box from Huawei. I'd imagine they aren't the only ones either.
  2. Isn't Globalization awsome? /s China is not the only country we advise executives and high risk users to be cautious when interacting with them (requiring burner local phones/devices, never travel with corporate data etc). Many countries have expllicit lists of entities you are not permitted to do business with period or carry quite strong trade requirements. Internally India was added to our list due to their attack on encryption. I wish more NA companies cared more about industrial epsionage and less PC bullshit. It's unfortunate but cheating and stealing is burned into their culture. They certainly care less about us as we do them. There are many companies that should fall under the same scrutiny as Huawei. Problem now becomes how to distance their farse of one arm being state run while the other is not. You don't really need to look much futher in Canada then where the money flows from in BC and Ontario.
  3. Those are just bizzare because not only is Linus lower, but their ads are quite compressed to the point it distorts (skillshare at the end .. sounds like he says "skilzzz". As for whose responsible, Google is off the hook on this. It's bad enough they reencode videos. , you don't want them killing any HFT / positional audio too. Put a cap or warning on anything above 0.9db. The issue in these is more the audio is already normalized and only some of it is compressed. If you listen enough you can hear the background music popping. tl;dr Someone dun goofed.
  4. toor2 on FP is linked to toor on the fourms. FP had no authorization to toor on LTT, period. You're full of it dude. What freaking account are you referring to?? I never said toor was usuable on FP, I said toor2 - which was just created - is and linked automatically. You provided a marked up screenshot, what does that prove exactly? Did FP send an email to validate the authorization? Did it require entering the 2fa which IS setup on LTT? No. You relied on implicit consent ye tyou're acting like you received otherwise. It fundamentally broke the entire point of 2FA. That is interesting because one of the original errors I had setting up toor was that the account already existed. TO WHAT ACCOUNT??? I did NOT DO THAT for toor2 dude. That was my point when toor was originally created (NOT toor2). What on earth is that based on. You're going to vouch for every email provider? What on earth guy. You have no idea how the account email account is created nor access. 2FA is explicity setup on LTT to prevent such access. An external threat is no different from internal with regard to this. I -sincerely- hope the 2FA authentication path is ENTIRELY different else you compromise the whole system through one breach. There is indeed an imense difference in security but again what are you basing the risk of a compromised anonymous email being higher then Yahoo, Gmail or any other provider? The disposable email address is protection against YOU getting hacked and has served me well for over a decade. I of course have no idea how the two systems are tied now, my observations were based on when I created toor (NOT TOOR2)
  5. You value yet summarily dismiss it? Simply saying "sorry, was a bug that was fixed now", would have been sufficient. Instead you refuse to even acknowlege it. Doesn't really matter at this point.. Kind of funny I guess given you didn't understand what VTP was the video 4 days ago about your 10G office network update. I don't have much faith in LMG nor Floatplane security
  6. Do they now.. lets see... Which is what I said. Since the account was never active on FP it should not have been possible to link. But lets continue shall we? Prove it, because you're contradicting yourself. The account was created on FP, it was -not- linked with the fourms. That directly contradicts above. I didn't request the link, it happened automatically. Fact that I was logged in is quite likely what happened yes but it was NOT AUTHORIIZED. This is like Facebook granting access to a partners site simply by visiting such site. If that happened, this would be all over the internet. Which did not happen. No, actually, I spent time trying to ask Luke on twitch what he'd suggest to which I was told you'lll get to it, you're busy. Except it was NOT AUTHORIZED. I did NOT link toor2 to toor, you/FP automatically did that rather then kick the session. Which I believe I pointed out elsewhere can be abused by registering accounts on one before the other. Which is what you DID. I don't think you grasp the issue here at all. This furthers my belief you have no idea what you're talking about guy. Email is not a form of security period. As has been pointed on this very site, providers get hacked (yahoo for example). If you didn't want to support temporary email addresses why do you not simply STATE THAT? Ironically that is the reason toor was originally created on the fourms and linked to FP. To be clear, at no point did I authorize FP to link toor2 with the fourm login toor. YOU / the site did this by hijacking an existing session withi them. cheers.
  7. I didn't click on anything to login with LTT forums. Further the fact that it linked a completely different account toor and not toor2 is what bothers me.
  8. Not sure where to ask this, tried a few places including email but never heard anything back. I've been trying on and off to recover a loging to floatplane. The account (this one) was created on the forms and I tried to link it with floatplane but that part ultimately failed since I never received an activation email (likely due to the address?). I tried again last week but created a new account entirely on floatplane (toor2). The weird thing .. ok outright disturbing - is the toor2 account got _linked_ to toor (this account), on the forums. That should not have happened, at least I never authorized toor2 nor was I prompted to. I'd imagine it was due to a cookie or some cross session leak. Again I tried to reach floatplane support and I know you guys are busy but .... surely security issues are viewed with a bit more importance? Cheers
  9. Depends how much you trust your "friends" and what technical level you are. Any VPN in bridge mode will work. Programs like Hammachi also have the advantage of being somewhat decentralized and anon. It's not meant to protect against a ddos or anything though. There's also no firewall by default. I personally have no problem configuring a comercial firewall (Cisco and Juniper for the curious), nor iptables.. might be a bit biased.
  10. Didn't the poach the guy from AMD? (Jim Keller). Can't imagine he'd be able to forget everything about them.
  11. Assuming it isn't a physical defect on the board somewhere (RFI leaking in for example), some hardware is straight up buggy. Best thing you can do is try a newer kernel or a live cd because more often then not it's a software problem or there are workarounds. Try testing without the 970 SSD there were problems with power management everything I think under 4.18-ish. You can disable the error too but I don't like that, the hardware is telling me there's a problem. I'd rather address that then put tape over it.
  12. Then you will see a performance drop. Wireless can be fast but no where near wired. Still not quiet following if all your devices are wired, why would you need wireless at all? Or you mean some of them are.
  13. Don't quite follow, are you using Wireless now? Really depends on the NIC and driver support, not all of them do 80211/ac in AP mode.
  14. Short answer is yes. Any weird weather ? Not all UPS's are equal (assuming you have one), could have been something from your house power.
  15. I don't hear anything but a fan / background noise.. usually Coil whine though. Bit of a touchy subject tbh, some people are OK with it, I'm not one of them. Give it a week especially if either are new. Should be fairly simple to eliminate the video card. Fun fact, I've had 4 EVGA 1080ti's with whine that all went away after upgrading the powersupply to 1000W+. There's no way I'm pulling that much power though.
