"Do not order unless you're ready for your information to be leaked. It's basically that bad."

Donald Trump’s smartphone has only been in reviewers’ hands for a few days, and it’s already coming apart at the seams.

According to Stephen Findeisen, a popular YouTuber who investigates online scams under the handle “Coffeezilla,” anyone who ordered the Donald Trump’s signature smartphone, the T1, is liable to have their personal information leaked to the world.

Essentially, Findeisen alleges that the Trump Mobile website contains a simple exploit allowing an entry-level hacker to both place fake pre-orders for the T1, as well as view the entire list of data from previous orders. The YouTuber was made aware by a friendly white-hat hacker, who was able to produce Findeisen’s name, order information, and mailing address, among other personal data.

Epic Games developer Psyonix has published a sneak peek at an updated version of Rocket League running in Unreal Engine 6, revealing a first look at its new logo.

Welcome to my overly enthusiastic love letter to Gnutella.

Despite its meteoric rise and its role as a driving force behind the file-sharing phenomenon of the 2000s, Gnutella has gone mostly forgotten. Some of that is because it was a component technology hidden beneath more visible projects like LimeWire.

Just made LiftTrace public after months of development. It's a self-hosted weightlifting / training log that runs in a single Docker container on your own hardware, with a PWA frontend and a signed Android APK. Sister app to NutriTrace under the same TraceApps umbrella.

What it does:

• Diary with sets, reps, RPE, warm-up flagging, supersets, rest timer
• Smart Add — type or speak your workout ("bench 3x5 @ 225, A1: curls 3x12, A2: pushdowns 3x12") and the AI parses it into structured sets
• Programs with mesocycles, weekly templates, coach prescriptions for trainer / athlete pairs
• Exercise library seeded from wger + Free Exercise DB (~1,500 exercises with images), plus your own custom uploads
• Statistics: volume, PRs, frequency heatmap, body weight trends
• OIDC SSO for Authentik, Keycloak, Pocket ID, Authelia, Auth0, Google, etc.
• Workout History Import from Strong, Hevy, FitNotes, and Jefit CSVs (so you don't lose your history switching over)
• Radio player built in for Subsonic / Jellyfin / Plex / Emby plus internet stations (because lifting and lockscreen media controls > switching apps mid-set)
• AI coach with live workout context — bring your own Claude / OpenAI / Gemini key, or point it at Ollama / LM Studio / any OpenAI-compatible endpoint
• Android app with offline-first SQLite, biometric sign-in, native ExoPlayer, optional WorkManager reminders

Self-hosted principles:

• AGPL-3.0, source is open, no telemetry, no central server, no analytics, no cloud sync to anybody else
• Single Docker container + bind-mounted volumes for DB and uploads
• Your data stays on your hardware. Back up with cp, restore with cp.

Quick start:

services:
  lifttrace:
    image: ghcr.io/traceapps/lifttrace:latest
    ports: ["3002:3003"]
    volumes:
      - ./data/db:/data/db
      - ./data/uploads:/data/uploads
    environment:
      - DB_PATH=/data/db/lifttrace.db
      - UPLOADS_PATH=/data/uploads
      - JWT_SECRET=change-me

I consolidated my setup a bit. This is my local LLM hosting server. I took a gamble on a Chinese NVLink SXM2 mezzanine board from ebay, it was surprisingly plug and play for my dual 16GB v100s 😂. I'm also running a Tesla P40 that I repasted with liquid metal that sits at 24C idle 🥶.

What do you think of this idea? I had this image of people going to the petrol pump and taking a swig, but if the boffins can do something useful with all the warehoused unsellable wine it might help in various ways.

Today's game is Animal Crossing New Horizons. I got some friends on too just hangout. It was the middle of the night though so our bright sunny hangout was more so a dark rainy beach day in the middle of the night. Despite that though i made the best of the situation and got some photos i like.

Despite the lack of initiative I have in playing the game, i really like using it to gather with friends. I've always had a fascination with games that can be used to gather with other's socially. It used to be such and interest of mine i would try to build "social" games in Little Big Planet 2 on the PS3. So having a modern version of something like that is pretty cool too me, even if i don't check in on it often.

Speaking of checking on it often, i went fishing to try and net some of this game's fish for this season. I haven't been on in a few months so i figured i should try and catch some.

I ended up forcing my friends too help me fish, but we can't trade fish as far as i know. So it was more so them stealing my fish and taking it home. It's okay though, I'll steal some of there fish later.

Anyways, we hung out today and i used my friends as models for a Photo shoot. After this I'll return this game to the state of Limbo it lives in probably, until i remember i have it and decided to play it again with my friends.

Hello, i was wondering if there are any good indie games on steam to try out. Can be free or paid, i don't mind if there's no native linux build either (i play stuff with wine/proton anyways lol) and i don't mind the genre. I've been thinking of trying something new as of recent so i thought i might ask it here.

Thanks!

Tech vendors promised personalized, frictionless learning. What American schools got instead was mind-numbing, data-hungry junk software that devalues teachers and shortchanges students. A growing movement, led by alarmed parents, is saying enough.

Technology’s allure is always future oriented: Personal computing was going to supercharge productivity; social media and smartphones would strengthen interpersonal connections; and now AI will streamline the world of work. And for three-quarters of a century, education technology vendors have promised to optimize student learning and eliminate the busywork of teaching. But as Charles Logan, T. Philip Nichols, and Antero Garcia recently argued in Kappan, “the future they’re selling has not arrived — and perhaps it never will. But de-skilling, surveillance, and extraction — all of that is happening now, in our classrooms, today.”

Hi everyone!

Everything is in the title. I can't open pictures taken from my work iPhone (HEIC and also used for family pictures) on Fedora Silverblue 44 and Pop!_OS 24.04 LTS.

For Silverblue I've tried a lot of stuff like:

rpm-ostree install libheif-tools rpm-ostree libheif-freeworld (getting unknown command) rpm-ostree install
https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/fedora/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm rpm-ostree install https://mirrors.rpmfusion.org/free/fedora/rpmfusion-free-release-$(rpm -E %fedora).noarch.rpm rpm-ostree update --uninstall rpmfusion-free-release --install rpmfusion-free-release rpm-ostree install libheif-freeworld libheif-tools

For Pop!_OS:

I've added HEIF image decoder in Kodi and tried other things that I don't remember for the file explorer. I've found an application (ImageFan Reloaded if I remember correctly) which can open them, but it's not so user friendly and it's not suitable a family gathering where you wanna watch pictures.

I have an installation of Fedora Workstation 44 and the pictures can be perfectly displayed on this one.

I'd really want to avoid converting all my HEIC pictures to another format as it would be a hassle and the pictures would take more storage space.

If someone could help, it would be nice
