@lina@vt.social yeah, everyone acts like apple has some unmatched hw tech for facial recognition. Meanwhile it's basically 1st gen kinect(360).

@MrL314@peoplemaking.games dlss 5 is very similar to the samsung phone "taking photos of the moon". Worse actually since samsung at least didn't hallucinate extra nonexistent in real life detail on the moon.

@justsoup@mstdn.social @CalcProgrammer1@mastodon.social @fun@berkeley.edu.pl Well the first two ipad pro generations are checkm8 vulnerable but they're not m series chips ofc. They're also the highest ram checkm8 devices with 4 gb of ram.

@ShellyYBlack@digipres.club Reminds me of: https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Vampire_tap

@liaizon @javi Only the ads and the search engine are internet/server related. And they also only get whatever word or words you typed into the omnibar no other data

@javi@goblin.band And the advertisers don't get any data, except perhaps the total aggregated click trough rate of the new tab amazon ad for example Firefox themselves are the ad providers here

@javi@goblin.band AFAIK, mozilla does not process or collect your local browser data anywhere. The only thing mozilla collects depending on your settings is browser feature related analytics, crash reports and the ad click through rates if you leave the ads enabled. Firefox sync does exist but that's e2ee so mozilla doesn't have any access to that data.

@freeplay to be fair, this is also buggy on windows

@janne You mean an intended use case

@LineageOS@fosstodon.org Is he okay?

@javi@goblin.band they measure the click through rate of ads. They don't have many ads so they all just send them to all browsers with some if then rules for showing them. Like for example, show amazon ad on new tab if amazon is in browsers local search history, all of which would be done on the browser side. They only get a signal if you click on the amazon ad on the new tab page. At most if they don't anonymize it enough then them would keep your ip but they probably don't.
