What benefit would there be to uninstalling those bundled apps entirely vs disabling them? It's a nice goal to aspire to, sure, but does it really matter?

You can trivially install another launcher without that search bar and disable nearly all bundled apps on Pixels. Show me how easy it is to remove all the ads and bloatware from Windows.

Did they? Sounds like AMD did that[^1] and that the project is continuing based on the pre-AMD codebase[^2].

"A complete rebuild was necessary to ensure the website meets modern security, usability and accessibility requirements for the millions of Australians who reply on it every day," a spokesperson said.
I guess those "usability and accessibility requirements" don't include being usable without JavaScript.
Unless you think the same backdoor is hiding in AOSP, you can just check the diff and some extra lines for context.
You really want an LLM hallucinating that everything is ok and turning your air back on? Or hallucinating that everything was always ok and not turning your air off in the first place?

When you reach out to one of your recovery contacts for help, you will share a code with them. They will get an email or notification and can confirm it’s really you by verifying that code, helping you securely regain access to your account. While you should choose someone you trust, rest assured that your recovery contact will not have access to your account or any of your personal information.
What additional verification will be required to regain access to your account?
Would be safer to use GrapheneOS and distribute these apps on F-Droid, using a custom repo if the main one won't allow them.
It's not just Android. I've encountered frequent broken gradle caching when using Kotlin outside of Android and when using Fabric for building Minecraft mods. In my experience, the only solution is wiping the user-wide gradle cache. Maybe it's a gradle issue or maybe it's an ecosystem issue (i.e. gradle plugins not respecting Gradle's cache semantics). Regardless, it does not reflect well on Gradle that such issues are so widespread.
From TFA:
The primary use case in mind for parker is on the machines with high core counts, where scalability concerns may arise. Once started, there is no communication between kernel instances. In other words, they share nothing thus improve scalability.
I haven't tested this, but in theory running deno with `--v8-flags='--jitless'`[^1][^2] will disable the JIT compiler.

Of course they don't. But the courts/government should force them to do so in this case. If the company or its shareholders need to be compensated then so be it. Better to pay them off and get Android and Chrome out of their hands before they can cause further damage.
Some devices are listed with both "BFU Yes" and "BF No" under the "... BFU" column (for example, the newer Pixel devices table). What do these mean in combination?
Why not spin them each off into an independent non-profit?
If you don't mind sharing, which country is that?
Last I heard, the default on Android was to randomize MAC address across networks but keep them static for each network.
Until copyright runs out.
is an MMO “functional/playable” if you just release a localhost server? Are we forcing indie shops to pay for servers indefinitely now?
The man behind Stop Killing Games has made it perfectly clear that they do not want to force game developers to continue operating servers. Rather, as you suggest, releasing server binaries would be acceptable. Although a mere "localhost" server would likely not be sufficient, because (if I interpret your suggestion correctly) it takes away the multiplayer funtionality of the game. I think it would be reasonable to require developers to release online multiplayer capable server binaries.
Why would OBS not work?
How's the food in prisons?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but ntdll isn't magic. An attacker could just use raw syscall machine code, although they would need to pay close attention to the OS version.
What if the user doesn't trust the developer?
The point is that drag-and-dropping files should give the sandbox access to that file exclusively without needing to grant any extra permissions. I don't want discord reading my entire home directory, or even all my pictures.
Because sometimes the user really wants to access those fields, and if the language enforces them being private, the user will either copy-paste your code into their project, or fork your project and make the fields public there. And now they have a lot of extra work to stay up-to-date when compared to just making the necessary changes if those fields ever change had they been public.
They do if you bother to write bindings.
Nextcloud's app does not use native code.
Why doesn't Nextcloud use the scoped storage access introduced in recent years? Users could give Nextcloud access to the particular folders they want synced. Is there some kind of access they need that those APIs don't support?
Best designed? Really? Support for something as basic as consistent integer types across platforms is non-existent.
The System Boot demo video on the screenshots page won't play for me. Seems the format isn't supported by Firefox on Android.
