Hmm, I think as a DM I would roll an arcana check to see if the wizard would conceivably have heard of radiation from arcane studies. It’s reasonable to assume people with arcane knowledge would be the first to hear about the strange metal chunks that everyone keeps dying around. One of them would have had to have come up with a word, if not some variation on “death cursed”

That and they turned off bot detection in osrs. Dude headed gambling corporations, I don’t trust him.

No, because that’s not how the matching works. Stuff in your data partition, as well as app data, is signed with those keys and hashed to the device. All of those bits do that hash on their own, and they all have to match up. When you change the main system partition then it’s signature has to match with the one generated when you set up your phone initially in the data partition.

Basically you have to have access to the data partition to disable the checks or change the signature, which needs your pin/passcode/fingerprint, and if you have that you don’t even need the phone, you dump the data partition and unlock it in an emulated android environment and exfiltrate data from there as if it was the original phone.

I also want to reiterate: A locked bootloader does not stop anyone from dumping your phone, emulating it, and brute forcing it, completely bypassing any rate-limiting on password attempts. By the time a bootloader lock even comes into play you can consider your phone completely compromised.

People here are also missing one part of the android security model. Yes, you can overwrite the system partition arbitrarily while leaving the data partition intact with an unlocked bootloader, that’s how updates work.

However, the moment you make any changes to that system partition it won’t match the developers signature and the apps on the system will throw an absolute fit. Look into building your own lineage ROM and flashing it over an official build, it’s an entire process that requires your data partition to be unlocked (ie. phone booted and pin entered) to keep your data, even without making changes.

Realistically it isn’t insecure, if you set a passcode your data is encrypted and if someone mitm attacks your rom you will immediately notice stuff breaking all over the place.

The whole bootloader locking is purely vendors trying to force you to buy new phones every few years instead of the user backporting security patches indefinitely, not any practical security for the end user.

Honestly you can just remove the ambiguity and put the number right at 1 billion dollars of net worth. Up to that point is obscenely wealthy, but a billion is the line that guarantees the majority of your wealth came directly from the exploitation of the masses.

You can’t ethically make a billion dollars as an individual when the working class sees 1/10,000th of that in a year as doing fairly well in most areas.

I have long hair and just use bar soap. I have found that it’s the conditioner that makes any difference to how my hair feels when it dries out.

Before anyone goes in with a “buhhh muhh products” just fucking don’t. My hair is nice.

Patents and the fact that these chips are massively complex designs. We are talking architecture on the complexity level of the empire state building, most of which is a blend of proprietary designs developed over decades.

Nobody is saying you can’t do it in your garage, in fact it’s easier than ever to start. Let me know how it goes, look into some of the recent tapeout challenges to get an idea of what you are proposing people just make in a garage.

Or just make it yourself. The biscuits are dirt simple, butter, flour, baking powder, and just enough water to hold it together. Gravy is just a white flour gravy with lots of pepper. Ingredients are sausage with grease, flour, milk, and pepper.

Season to taste.

Damn, RuneScape uses under 5GB with uncompressed textures. It’s a full-on MMO. I think old-school fits in under a gig.

Oh, name and shame for that shit.

Richard Burke at Casper College does this and doesn’t even use the book. Costed over $150.

Garbage practice that should be criminal fraud.

Everyone except management.

It’s beyond fucked.

I can speak firsthand that this is the case for Kroger in Illinois. Their unions fight to cap wages below living wage levels, pick some of the most expensive insurance on the market, and work with Kroger corporate to eat away your hourly rate with sliding payscales based on incredibly arbitrary criteria (overnight premium, but it only counts for 4 hours of a graveyard shift as an example that happened to me).

They are actually worse than not having a union, because then they could make more than $23 an hour in Chicago.

Oh, did I mention the union contract specifically prohibits strikes and any form of worker retaliation?

Awful company.

Vapor deposited metal film. Expensive, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they already use exactly that to handle interference from the sun. Even non-coherent light can wash the sensors out if you have enough of it.
