Isn't biggest attack surface in drivers? I expect distros to split less popular kernel modules into many separate opt-in packages at cost of default hardware support, and kernel developers to purge everything without active development team. The good old "lets leave it in tree, someone might find it useful" was nice idea but that is the part that is definitely not sustainable.

Depends on definition of machine. Do ISS, LHC or ITER count?

You are wrong. Just idea of having to use to remotes is unacceptable level of friction to most people. We should not hail separate device as excuse to allow this shitty behaviour by TV manufacturers. I guess the lawmakers won't move a finger and we have wait for consumer network equipment manufacturers[1] to advertise build in pi-hole and ACR/TV ads blocking on firewall level.

[1] Let's just forget for a second they are famous for low quality software full of security bugs

Also: Samsung thinks "your" TV is perfect place for them to display their ads.

Let's be real, in most cases it is:

    curl -s script.random-guy.net | sh

It is such glaring security hole that there was an old submission about filling such install script with `sleep` commands and detecting it on server side, to send different versions for downloading (and reviewing) and for actual direct execution.

> yet people are shocked

I think the issue is that for now people are actually amused, not shocked. At least that was the reaction to news about agent accessing root files by abusing docker group membership. The general sentiment is still "cool trick bro" not "some agent is going to do something we all are going to regret, and it is going to happen soon"

I mean at least it is transportation adjacent. Tesla flamethrower on other hand ...

OK? Am I missing something or getting licence in Benelux doesn't sound like important news when there are already 100 units running in France?

I am sure finding holes in existing proofs is what counts as "another little annoying detail". Some people are probably relieved when they have failed to prove a hypothesis and someone finds a counterexample.

Is it really that common? On some sites the only way to find signup is to first go to login page

I found GoPros to cook SD cards from time to time. It makes me wonder if normal sized SD are still manufactured and are they more resistant. For years in stores I only saw miro SD with adapter to full size.

For few years the solution was to buy any TV you like, not connect it to internet and use some cheap streaming box. Nowadays even Roku added ads to its devices, so the question became: which streaming services are easy to whitelist on router, cause my consumer devices are too unsafe to allow them internet access.

I mean Congress or SCOTUS could restrict his powers but they don't want to. How do you even go about fixing that? And is it really that uncommon when president, congress and supreme court is controlled by same party? I have a feeling the only new element is that the same can be now said for media.
