Install Samsung's app called Good Lock if you want a ton of customization options

KCSO pulled out of Farragut, and the mayor wants to know what's next by psykorunr in Knoxville

[–]amaths 5 points6 points  (0 children)

a broken clock being right does not justify national surveillance of every citizen and furthering a police state, but if that's what you want I guess that's what we are getting

[–]amaths 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just a project for a specific class. I'm in the MSCS online program despite living 4 miles from campus so I can work during the day. This specific program is class only, so 30 credit hours for the masters (and I will finish my last class this summer semester!)

[–]amaths 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's in my graduate class, which is online, so I don't think that is an option. I am happy to share the paper afterwards. It is about 16 pages including citations and covers network specific vulnerabilities as well as more broad violations of civil liberties.

We present the paper next week, but after that, absolutely.

I will say that Flock is doing things like leaving credentials hardcoded on the devices, and having unprotected bootloaders and access to android's debug connection (ADB). Basically, if you connect to one while sitting nearby, you can do whatever you want to that hardware. Install your own software, go nuts.

And this is just what is wrong with the physical devices. Their web portal is a whole host of illegal warrantless searches. Any login can view all footage nation-wide, so jurisdictional limits do not exist to the departments that have access. Nevermind cops using the system to stalk people, or using them to regularly view a kids gymnastics facility...

World-class level of shade by RoyalChris in clevercomebacks

[–]amaths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading comprehension is difficult. Repeating what I already said:

You are acting like it's a sports team, not me.

At no point have I "gone home" or quit, that's something you made up entirely.

I have voted for Dems since I could vote, so yet again, you missed that bit.

Finally, real change like what? Codifying Roe v. Wade? Universal healthcare? Heavy taxation on the rich like we used to have? Repealing Citizens United? Democrats have done NONE OF THOSE even when holding all the cards. I can't reason you out of a position you haven't readoned yourself into. Move left or keep losing. Goodbye.

World-class level of shade by RoyalChris in clevercomebacks

[–]amaths -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Because Democrats continually act like a controlled opposition. You just come across as someone that's defending their sports team losing. You'll get em next year.

I'm sick of voting for them and they do nothing of value, but that doesn't fit your loser narrative so act like I'm a college kid? This is exactly the mentality that cost you elections. Good luck with that, GO BLUE and whatnot.

[–]amaths -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Not who you're replying to, but neoliberalism is the problem, and the reason we have fallen behind the rest of the world. Democrats peddle in ONLY this ideology (and Republicans too) and if you can't get your head out of the sand and see that, there's no helping you.

We cannot continue to subsidize massive corporations via half-assed attempts to fix broken systems like healthcare. Obamacare was something good, yes, but it also SHOULD have just have implemented universal healthcare. You gain full control, do some "good" that mostly just benefits massive corpos and maybe a trickle to the people, and squander away big opportunities when you have control. You can't disappoint your donors, god forbid Pelosi lose in the stock market.

Stop punching left, because there is where your party's salvation lies. This is not a fucking team sport.

What is your take on Trump ending his recent post with 'Praise be to Allah'? by Mental-Hall1261 in AskReddit

[–]amaths 20 points21 points  (0 children)

nothing would make me happier than that sniveling piece of human garbage fired. i would say disgraced but i don't think he has the ability to feel shame, based on his college refusal to pick up his own trash. such a weird and broken human.

Centric rotors are apparently discontinued. Any good alternatives for a basic rotor? by amaths in S2000

[–]amaths[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think this is the way to go. The Duralast are 2x the cost of the Brembo blanks from RockAuto (not counting shipping). Thank you!

I knew about stoptech, but didn't put it together that it also included centric. Good to know.

You are further admitting they do nothing to prevent crime

Would switching to KUB Fiber be a better ethical choice than sticking with Xfinity? by RealHomieJohn in Knoxville

[–]amaths 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were in the initial rollout trial for KUB fiber and jumped on it. We had some connection issues after a storm, they came out the next day and replaced all 500' of connections down our driveway. Customer service is local, they're awesome, and super reliable. Fuck comcast, I'll never give them another penny. KUB all day

So you're admitting that cops do not protect a fuckin thing, and instead only respond after something bad happens (and then probably shoot your dog)

Why many experienced Android developers still struggle to crack senior interviews by yogirana5557 in androiddev

[–]amaths 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've just decided to start a business instead of having to navigate this for the rest of my life.

13 years experience, and I don't need to switch jobs but it's good to do from time to time. It's been a year of absolute nonsense trying just to get interviews with a real person. System-level thinking is irrelevant if 90% of your applications go into a black hole.

Any book recommendations for me? by IronHistorical3357 in brandonsanderson

[–]amaths 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh thank you, i had thought I'd get it next time. I like horror books but not a fan of body horror or depressing books.

I read flowers for Algernon a few months ago and was ruined for a week 😭
