          ⭐ Announcing a Major Architectural Update to RIFT ⭐

          RIFT has undergone a complete rearchitecture to enhance its modularity, extensibility, and usability. An experimental build has been released on our GitHub repository, while the stable build remains available. The experimental build will continue to receive updates and improvements over time.

          ❓ What is RIFT?

          RIFT is a valuable tool for reverse engineers, designed to generate on-demand FLIRT signatures for Rust binaries.

          ❗ What's new?

          ⚙️ Three Operation Modes:
          - File Analysis Mode: Point RIFT directly at a binary.
          - Direct Generation Mode: Target specific crate versions and compiler combinations.
          - HTTP API Server Mode: Run RIFT as a service with an async job queue.

          🔧 Modernized Ida Pro Plugin: The Ida Plugin has been rebuilt with server integration, enabling FLIRT signature generation while reversing without needing to leave the window.

          For more details, visit: github.com/microsoft/RIFT

                          Today I read the brief synopsis of ntfy Android. I saw there that via linux the control and operation is fairly simple & straightforward

                          I went to the site and started reading.

                          ntfy via linux is easy to use

                          • simple HTTP PUT/POST commands are used

                                      After some research today it becomes clear that you can't have a linux system without running LLM generated code, since the linux kernel itself and also systemd has it.

                                      Maybe not running LLM generated code becomes a niche thing like running linux-libre and libreboot. It is not something the average user can achieve.

                                      We need a more specific approach to handle software with LLM contributions.

                                            Viele Menschen haben den Eindruck, dass sich der Blick verschoben hat. Erfolg wird häufig daran gemessen, wie schnell etwas wächst, wie viel Aufmerksamkeit es bekommt oder welchen Profit es erzeugt. In dieser Logik bleibt wenig Raum für das, was früher oft im Mittelpunkt stand, die Idee, gemeinsam etwas zu schaffen, das länger besteht als der eigene Vorteil.

                                                    First, it's really great that you guys have created a security focused deGoogled Android operating system.

                                                    Given the problems of American big tech, I applaud you for creating an alternative.

                                                    So full credit where credit is due.

                                                    That being said, constantly badmouthing every other non-Apple and non-Google smartphone maker and operating system is not a good look.

                                                    And jumping into any thread on Mastodon where there's a mention of another alternative smartphone maker or OS to badmouth them is not a good look.

                                                    You say Jolla is no good. SailfishOS is no good. Fairphone is no good. Murena is no good. CalyxOS is no good. Dumbphones are no good.

                                                    I'd imagine you'd probably win more people over if you talked more about why people should choose Graphene instead why they shouldn't choose one of the others.

                                                    Because right now, there are tradeoffs with every mobile OS.

                                                    That includes Graphene.

                                                    For example, there are people for whom limiting their exposure to Google and Apple is more important than choosing the most locked down option available.

                                                    For such people, needing to buy a Google Pixel phone to run Graphene is a massive negative.

                                                    That's even if the Google Pixel is the best hardware from a security perspective.

                                                    And in that case, yeah there are other options that may be a better fit for those people.

                                                    There's another issue.

                                                    There seems to be many Reddit threads and YouTube videos and blogs out there from people who were enthusiastic about Graphene, but have soured on it.

                                                    And the funny thing is there's a pattern to it. "Cult-like" and "toxic" seems to be phrases that tend to be used a lot.

                                                    I've also noticed a recurring pattern you put for why the other alternatives are bad is because people connected with those businesses or companies badmouth Graphene.

                                                    It seems to me like Graphene constantly bags those other projects. When anyone connected with those projects responds, that response is presented by you guys as evidence of bullying and harassment, without that context.

                                                    And the recurring line about how people should just stick with iOS or Google Android if they don't choose Graphene? Just shameful. And completely misses the point of why some people are looking for alternative platforms in the first place.

                                                    And the more people who choose an alternative OS, the more normal it becomes to do it, which ultimately leads to more people looking at alternatives like Graphene.

                                                            Make it is something I've already decided.

                                                            But I'm concerned someone could take the game to sell it on Steam. This is something I might do myself at some point (yet another unanswered question), but I clearly don't want someone who didn't work on it to get money from players (who could get the game for free instead but woudn't know or would be tricked into thinking they support devs)

Erfolg wird häufig daran gemessen, wie schnell etwas wächst, wie viel Aufmerksamkeit es bekommt oder welchen Profit es erzeugt. In dieser Logik bleibt wenig Raum für das, was früher oft im Mittelpunkt stand, die Idee, gemeinsam etwas zu schaffen, das länger besteht als der eigene Vorteil.

                                                                      Dabei waren viele der Dinge, die unsere Welt geprägt haben, nie nur aus persönlichem Gewinn entstanden. Sie wurden von Menschen getragen, die an eine Überzeugung glaubten – Menschen, die etwas entwickeln wollten, das anderen hilft, Wissen zugänglich macht oder eine Gemeinschaft stärkt. Der Antrieb war nicht nur Erfolg, sondern Bedeutung.
