XRevan86> Chromium is far more secure than Firefox.May 27 00:01
XRevan86oiMay 27 00:01
MinceRthe "modern" web is a pretty bad architecture if security is what you wantMay 27 00:01
XRevan86> On Android, Firefox does not have a sandbox at all beyond the OS app sandbox unlike Chromium which uses the isolatedProcess feature.May 27 00:04
*XRevan86 looks at his Fenix and wonders "does it have isolatedProcess?"May 27 00:04
XRevan86Doesn't look like it, heh.May 27 00:06
XRevan86https://github.com/mozilla-mobile/fenix/blob/master/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml no mention here anywayMay 27 00:06

XRevan86> At the bottom, the author references Daniel Micay's criticism of Firefox on the GrapheneOS website. However, the criticism is primarily focused on mobile Firefox (Fennec), which has been completely rebuilt over the last year (Fenix), so I'm skeptical of how many of these claims would be accurate for the new Firefox mobile platform.May 27 00:07
XRevan86The author of the refute should've checked like I have.May 27 00:07
XRevan86Which doesn't mean that everything else that was mentioned in that GrapheneOSs article holds, but it's the thing that was mentioned by text in question.May 27 00:08
XRevan86> Ultimately, whether you use Firefox or a Chromium-based browser, this will have little bearing on your security.May 27 00:11
XRevan86I agree with that.May 27 00:11

*XRevan86 stopped at "body art"May 27 00:12
*XRevan86 doesn't want to investigate if it's the same thing as "body horror" or not.May 27 00:13

XRevan86schestowitz: That could not have ended well.May 27 00:18
schestowitzyou don't hear much about firefox for android anymoreMay 27 00:18
schestowitzwell, google controls itMay 27 00:18
schestowitzthey might tolerate firefox if it's tightly integrated into Google sites/apisMay 27 00:18
XRevan86schestowitz: Fenix is still not out. I think there will be a bit of a campaign when it's out.May 27 00:18
XRevan86Fennec doesn't really have much of an appeal these days.May 27 00:19
XRevan86schestowitz: I've seen quite a lot of Firefox Focus users.May 27 00:20
XRevan86So the interest is thereMay 27 00:20

DaemonFC[m]I'm mostly using Brave.May 27 01:31
DaemonFC[m]I just can't bring myself to use Chrome and admit defeat. It's also got a lot of spyware in it.May 27 01:31
DaemonFC[m]Obviously, Google is not interested in building in tracking and fingerprinting protection into the core of their browser, or a Tor Mode.May 27 01:32
DaemonFC[m]There's no "Brave Account" to sign into. May 27 01:32
DaemonFC[m]Sync works by establishing a sync chain with a QR code that Brave on your phone or tablet can scan.May 27 01:33
DaemonFC[m]The rendering engine is Blink but that's pretty much where the similarity ends.May 27 01:34
XRevan86DaemonFC[m]: Also V8 and more or less the rest of Chromium.May 27 01:35
DaemonFC[m]Well, it is Free Software. It doesn't spy on you.May 27 01:35
DaemonFC[m]Google doesn't really seem to care that competitors are using Chromium.May 27 01:36
XRevan86You mentioned similarities.May 27 01:36
XRevan86DaemonFC[m]: They care a lot, and have done quite a bit to simplify making custom spins.May 27 01:36
DaemonFC[m]There's a lot of @microsoft.com email addresses in the Chromium commit logs lately.May 27 01:37
DaemonFC[m]It seems that some of them can write decent code if they want to or someone will kick it back if they don't.May 27 01:38
XRevan86DaemonFC[m]: They did say that they're going to upstream their changes to the open core.May 27 01:38
DaemonFC[m]Windows seems to be so sloppy because of years of neglect and crap piling up that was half baked.May 27 01:38
DaemonFC[m]Linux gets crap sometimes, but at least the old crap goes away eventually, mostly.May 27 01:39
XRevan86It's a giant monolith that tries to maintain compatibility.May 27 01:39
DaemonFC[m]With Windows there's just piles and piles of old code that doesn't really serve any purpose.May 27 01:39
DaemonFC[m]I mean, they just finally removed vestigial Outlook Express code that hasn't even worked since Windows XP from Windows 10 last year.May 27 01:40
DaemonFC[m]They warn that they'll be removing the Windows 2000 display driver model at some point.May 27 01:40
DaemonFC[m]I mean crap sticks to Windows and you're lucky if they ever remove it.May 27 01:40

DaemonFC[m]Yeah, I mentioned that the other day.May 27 19:36
DaemonFC[m]It only does it to Mac and Windows. It's looking for RATs and stuff.May 27 19:36
DaemonFC[m]Honestly, can you blame them?May 27 19:36
DaemonFC[m]I disabled the Spectre and Meltdown mitigations because honestly I'm not a high priority target where someone is going to go out of their way to craft malware for my exact machine that could stop working the minute I bump my Linux kernel or anything else.May 27 19:37
DaemonFC[m]On the other hand, a 35% drag on certain workloads is quite severe.May 27 19:38
DaemonFC[m]It basically turns your 2016 Intel laptop into a 2013 Intel laptop.May 27 19:38
DaemonFC[m]Part of me thinks they did it on purpose to sell a bunch of hardware and then cripple it so that if you were getting acceptable performance, you weren't now, and the only cure was new hardware.May 27 19:39
DaemonFC[m]Now that Linus Torvalds is running an AMD threadripper, I mean that says a lot.May 27 19:39
DaemonFC[m]My next computer will be all AMD because I'm so very pissed off at Intel.May 27 19:39

DaemonFC[m]The name's origin came from the propaganda Molotov produced during the Winter War, mainly his declaration on Soviet state radio that bombing missions over Finland were actually airborne humanitarian food deliveries for their starving neighbours.[2] As a result, the Finns sarcastically dubbed the Soviet cluster bombs "Molotov bread baskets" in reference to Molotov's propaganda broadcasts.[3] When the hand-held bottleMay 27 20:21

oiaohmDaemonFC[m]: Spectre and Meltdown is the classic problem you can design for security or speed but never completely both at the same time.May 27 20:25
MinceRyou can also design so that you have neitherMay 27 20:25
MinceRthe folks at redmond are the champions of that oneMay 27 20:26
oiaohmIf you design computer system silicon for speed then attempt o have security you also mostly end up with neither.May 27 20:27
oiaohmAlso remember the thunderbolt one able to read raw system memory that is intel as well.May 27 20:28
oiaohmSame with firewire before it.May 27 20:28
MinceRyup, was about to mention firewire :>May 27 20:28
MinceRmaybe usb3 can do it tooMay 27 20:28
oiaohmNot really went it comes to port design security intel is very tick tock.May 27 20:30
oiaohmAs in they screw one port design up from security then get it right on the next one.May 27 20:30
oiaohmproblem is the one after they forgot all their leason and screw it up the same way again.May 27 20:31

DaemonFC[m]Firewire was really pointless.May 27 20:46
DaemonFC[m]It seems that Thunderbolt is going nowhere as well, even though it was better designed.May 27 20:46
DaemonFC[m]They keep bumping USB and it's backward compatible with any USB device that's ever existed.May 27 20:47
DaemonFC[m]So it's hard to argue with that.May 27 20:47
DaemonFC[m]According to some tests I saw, certain USB 2 thumb drives might be faster than USB 2 data transport speeds when you plug them into a USB 3 port.May 27 20:48
DaemonFC[m]It suggest to me that much of the limits were a bottleneck at the port itself.May 27 20:48
DaemonFC[m]There's of course the fact that flash memory that isn't up to standarda of the major brands gets kicked to generic companies. The memory itself works, but not at the full speed that the name brand companies advertise.May 27 20:51
DaemonFC[m]Sometimes you don't need the full speed, because you're moving a bunch of data over once and it's going to stay there.May 27 20:52
DaemonFC[m]It doesn't take a lot of read bandwidth to play a WavPack file because most parts of it don't much exceed 1 Mbps, and many are lower than that, and then the whole thing is basically buffered anyway at a certain point.May 27 20:53
DaemonFC[m]WavPack isn't suitable for streaming. The frame size is very large to take an opportunity to compress the data better.May 27 20:53
DaemonFC[m]It's good for storage and local playback though.May 27 20:54
DaemonFC[m]The bigger the frames, the more samples you can pack into one, and the better the compression methods used for those samples will work, on average.May 27 20:54
*kingoffrance (~x__@c-67-161-241-22.hsd1.ut.comcast.net) has joined #techrightsMay 27 20:55
DaemonFC[m]FLAC has smaller frames, and you need an entire frame to be able to decode any of it, so algorithmic delay of FLAC is lower, but the compression efficiency is too.May 27 20:55
DaemonFC[m]It does make a difference. WavPack Extra High compresses PCM approximately 3% better than FLAC -8.May 27 20:56
DaemonFC[m]Might not sound like much, but if you have 1,000 CDs to compress, WavPack can put about 30 more of them into the same space than FLAC can.May 27 20:57
DaemonFC[m]The decode time is greater than FLAC, but that doesn't matter much because it's way below the minimum clock speed of a modern processor core, even on an ARM big.LITTLE system, like my Galaxy S8+.May 27 20:57
DaemonFC[m]Monkey's Audio can compress better than WavPack, but by the time you get any real savings, the decode is 20 times slower than Wavpack Extra High and about 37 times slower than FLAC -8.May 27 20:58
DaemonFC[m]That still does matter on a modern phone, because it will drain your battery and slow your device down.May 27 20:59
