Power Automate Desktop require me to sign in even though its free. I don't expect much from MS but I'm still dissapointed.

I might give cracking with dnspy a go but I already have a pretty good desktop automation workflow going on with python

Even as a person with occasional death anxiety episodes I must say, living forever (or being forced to) is the only thing scarier than death. for example:

How will people deal with the fact that rebelling against oppressors will carry the possibility of becoming a Prometheus like figure, doomed to eternal suffering?

Also, I have a feeling that awareness of one's mortality is not an insignificant motivating factor in life. Like, how would anything in life have any weight when you know you will live forever anyways? A bit like how bringing back a character in a movie feels cheap and removes and weight knowing they will be fine in the end regardless of what happens.

I should've clarified... I was imagining attack scenarios like a search warrant. i.e. the attackers finding your device in a powered off state. In the case of veracrypt, its reasonable to assume that your memory is the only thing holding the keys to the castle. Whereas in the case of android phones you are 100% at the mercy of whoever designed the security coprocessor.

To this they I still can't wrap my head around how can data on an Android phone be considered secure without requiring a long password at boot. Veracrypt style.

Storing it on a security coprocessor is no good when the entity you want to protect against has most of the world's chipmakers wrapped around their fingers(in the case of US citizens). Software based solutions at least have a chance of being verified.

>based on web technologies

how is that a plus?

Also missing Cortex Command[0] which got open sourced not so long ago[1].

I would be really interested in a similar book/workshop but for graphical text editors.

>because Amazon techs and motivated hackers can peek at files you put there (yes, really, all of them! including your secret keys)

What did the author mean by this? I can understand amazon employees having the ability to peek at private data but what about "hackers"? is he referring to the fact that lightsail is containerized and not running on VMs?(just a guess)

Opting out will be harder and harder because technologies like SafetyNet will make most apps unusable on non google approved devices.

as a regular r2 user this makes me sad. I hope development stays in one place just like in the case of other coc forks like glimpse
