Asking from ignorance here.

Assuming you are using an old phone with termux to serve de webpage. What could be an attack vector?

The phone will be running Android 7.1


What do you hobby code? Can we have a glance at it?


I don't see any advantage working on JupyterGIS over working in QGIS.


Notebooks is a nice and soft way to bring a programming mindset to non-programmers.

Your actions are repeatable and can be stored in a centralized repository.

There are probably some macro abilities in QGIS (it is an amazing tool), but this means moving to "script first" from "click first".


I can see it for programmers. Here you can use industry standard python libraries (shapely, geopandas etc.). Nobody really wants to learn PyQGIS (the python interface for qgis). So while qgis is much more full featured for "desktop" gis (designed to compete with esri arcgis) i can see the use case here for people who want to build their own extensions and port code from this to other python projects more easily.


If you're doing primarily analytics rather than making a map, I could see how JupyterGIS might be a better choice.

(but you can always just use proj/GDAL at the import/export layer...)


I see a few advantages. For my work in particular, I have to rely on creating desk study reports via exporting PDFs from QGIS - this depends on export DPI, page size etc. Following that I have to pull those plans into e.g. Word and it's a messy system.

A python notebook would be a nice way of generating reports of GIS data in an interactive way without being forced to use pages, PDFs, and embedded image files.


Where I work, I can't give anything is not a word document to anybody else in the company. A python notebook might help at creating the figures for example, but I can already do that with QGIS layouts.

If the working environment allows for checking/reviewing within the notebook, I guess this could help automatise things.


An amazing thing, given the author is Spanish speaker I really miss the ñ Ñ. But I guess his answer is going to be, you can make those yourself!


I tried to do that, and now I’m just confused. The included glyph for the lower case n doesn’t actually fit the grid, so you can’t seem to replicate it. But also that grid doesn’t have enough resolution to do the tilde. Maybe I’m missing something?


Yeah, there are some sort of shenanigans going on in the editor. The premade letters use a finer grid than what the editor lets you work with.

It's most obvious with O, {, & and # which are impossible to draw with the grid that's presented to you.


Noticed that on desktop, the real grid, including the "half points" is shown and you can actually work with it. So it might just be a problem with the mobile version.


Enter a N or n into the Editing box, you'll see the two grids that make the glyph up along with a blank third grid on the bottom, add a small tilde in the top two rows. Or copy and paste the actual Ñ or ñ characters into the Editing box to create it new, and you can use it immediately with the alphabet textbox on the left.


The editor doesn’t understand ñ and you can’t make a tilde because it requires a minimum of four points of width.


Yes, and those glyphs don’t fit the grid. Try to redraw the n from the original font yourself. You can’t, because you can’t add points between the grid dots.


ISP with the right to football goes to court to report themselves (not a joke) about piracy happening in their networks.

An old man judge which understand technology as much as I understand biochemistry (nothing) decides that they need to stop piracy, His solution is to give laliga the power to block those illegal streams, that all ISP must comply for the time that a match exist. The judge covers himself by saying, that the blockage can't affect third parties.

All ISP happy comply. It does affect third parties.

Cloudflare (third party) puts a recourse to say that it is affecting their business. The very same old man, decides, that is not going to proceed with that investigation.

So cloudflare needs to to through a different slower legal procedure.

Meanwhile, we have a company with the authority to block what they want thanks to corruption.


Thanks for the summary. I assume this will go up the chain of appeals etc. and on to the EU courts if needed?


What they do if receive such an email, it is to bully and threaten the owner of the webpage saying that their web is hosted in the same IP than pirates streaming and they would take legal action.

Just, so that you know what is really going on.


I have just checked, and Aurora Linux does not offer support for any Nvidia card older than 16xx.

Looks like they used to, so they have removed the option.


Strange since Bazzite still has 900&1000 driver options.

Building your own is an option https://github.com/ublue-os/image-template


I am willing to try an image officially supported but definitely I am not building my own to run a computer for my mom given that w10 supports ends, don't have the spoons nor the time for that.

But I guess it is best to have the option that not to have it.


If this is related to the split in Mesa for "Gallium" and "non-Gallium" support, you could try installing the amber branch. Older nvidia video cards are still supported that way.

However, the only distro I could find where it actually worked was Chimera. Not the gaming-related ChimeraOS but the from-scratch LLVM-compiled all-static APK and Dinit distro with a hodgepodge userland ported from the BSDs.

It's rolling release though so it'll happily install the latest bugs. But it probably does that faster than any other distro.


The easiest way is with a programmable plug, it does not have to be smart, just set it up to charge the phone for 1 or 2 hours at the cheapest, or available by solar, the rest of the day the phone will use battery as usual. Is the battery cooked? Then set it to be half an hour every 4 hours or so.


The curious thing is that being GrapheneOS open source, I would think that somebody could potentially create a ROM for them, even if it is not as secure as GrapheneOS would like. However, absolutely nobody has done it yet...


AXP.OS (axpos.org) is LineageOS-based (formerly DivestOS-based), but includes security backports from GrapheneOS and CalyxOS. No doubt it is less secure than GrapheneOS, but surely more secure than LineageOS, and supports bootloader relocking on some devices.


It's not a security upgrade over current AOSP overall and is definitely not a port of GrapheneOS to other devices. Someone could make a partial port of GrapheneOS to other devices but this is not that.

> but includes security backports from GrapheneOS and CalyxOS

It has a small portion of the GrapheneOS features, similar to DivestOS before it. However, it's not preserving or restoring the standard security reduced by LineageOS as much as DivestOS did. DivestOS was not a strict upgrade over AOSP either.

CalyxOS isn't a hardened OS in the same space as GrapheneOS. It doesn't have similar exploit protections or privacy features. That's a misconception about it. They also haven't provided the June 2025 patches yet.

> but surely more secure than LineageOS

This doesn't imply it's as secure as AOSP though despite having additional security features. Starting from LineageOS as the baseline and adding more problematic changes makes it much messier than it just being AOSP with added security features. Android 16 is required for full Android privacy/security patches and the current privacy/security improvements. Soon there will be Android 16 QPR1.


There is no evidence the footage was deceptively manipulated, but ambiguities around how the video was processed may further fuel conspiracy theories about Epstein’s death.


There's no reason to say that it's raw footage and then put it through a video editing program, so I'd say what we know now is evidence of it being deceptively manipulated.

But I see you're quoting the article, so I guess you're not intending to say that it wasn't and that Wired are instead saying something ridiculous?


Easier than that, I do not often publish on hacker news, only when I find something that could be interesting to read the comments on. And I though the field there was for a subtitle, rather than that it was published itself as a comment.

If you ask me, I am on the "conspiracy" team. Too much coincidences, to much interests, and very few plausible explanations.
