  • I think BLE is only required for the initial compromise (extracting the pairing key). After that the attack can be performed over classic BT, and can impersonate either part (headphones or phone) to the other.
    It's still very targeted and sophisticated, so no reason to panic unless you have reasons to think someone with the resources could target you.
    Regarding the attacks, they go way beyond eavesdropping calls, since BT headphones usually have access to contacts and smart assistants, that you can use to extract a lot more information

  • +1 for Volumio! I didn't know it can use Jellyfin as a media source. To be fair, I just started using Jellyfin and didn't want to migrate everything to it until being sure it will stay. So far it's looking very good though.

  • I don't think git is the right tool for this. It's designed for text files, not binary. Also, there's no need for version control here. Git won't store diffs of binary files, so if a file changes (even the slightest change like an mp3 tag) it will keep a full copy of the old file.
    OP wants to sync, so I would use rsync here. It will be way faster and efficient. If you want to know what rsync did, you can keep a log file of it's output.

  • Good point about the indie studios. I mostly play indie games, there's rarely any AAA game that is worth the price.

    Seems like the way to go, support services that stream independent media and stop supporting the enshittified ones.

  • Totally agree.
    Broadcast TV shows where designed with advertising in mind because it was the only way to monetize it at the time (except for tax-funded of course).
    When cable TV started, one of their selling points was that it didn't have ads, at least on the "cable-native" channels.
    But after a while, they started putting ads everywhere, and that of course lead to the shitty experience that made a lot of people "cut the wire" when streaming services started.

    I'm wondering what's the next thing that will replace streaming, and eventually repeat the cycle.

  • Not talking about any reviewer in particular, but in general, even if they don't get payed, they get the game for free and usually have affiliate links to buy the game, so there's at least a couple of incentives to do a better review.
    Again, not accusing anyone, but the potential for bias/conflict of interest is something to keep in mind when watching those types of reviews.

    Ever-larger cars and trucks are causing a safety crisis on US streets – here’s how communities can fight back

    Bigger vehicles can be safer in crashes, but far more dangerous for pedestrians.

    And the average size of cars and trucks in the U.S. continues to grow. Some current models – like that of the Toyota Rav4 – are a third larger than they were only 15 years ago.

    That’s led to a 77% increase in pedestrian fatalities since 2010.
