Good morning Fedi friends,
I hope you've had a lovely week thus far.
I've been busy with creative projects... and I also have been resurrecting, repurposing and/or jailbreaking old devices:
📱 I wiped my iPhone 6 which has an AMAZING form factor + standard audio jack, put my entire music library on it and essentially turned it into an iPod (no need for a self-hosted music server... for now)
📱 I jailbroke two Kindles v4 (2011-2012)
📱 I resurrected my Google #Nexus7 (2012 edition) which had been my first and most favorite tablet to date – its form factor is also incredible - and I'm looking into flashing Lineage OS on it... because it won't install anything and is pretty sluggish as is
📱 I got a #GooglePixel 9a and immediately installed #GrapheneOS on it.
In case you've been wondering what I've been up to... not much self-hosting but a lot of tweaking of devices 🤗
Wishing you all a great weekend!

Das kleinstes Pixel der Welt gibt’s in Würzburg
Ein Bildelement mit lediglich 300 Nanometern Kantenlänge haben Würzburger Forscher erschaffen. Das ist zirka halb so lang wie die Wellenlänge des Lichts.

Hackers can steal 2FA codes and private messages from Android phones
> Android devices are vulnerable to a new attack that can covertly steal 2FA codes, location timelines, and other private data in less than 30 seconds.
> The new attack, named Pixnapping by the team of academic researchers who devised it, requires a victim to first install a malicious app on an Android phone or tablet.
> The app, which requires no system permissions, can then effectively read data that any other installed app displays on the screen. Pixnapping has been demonstrated on Google Pixel phones and the Samsung Galaxy S25 phone and likely could be modified to work on other models with additional work. Google released mitigations last month, but the researchers said a modified version of the attack works even when the update is installed.

Is the Pixel 10 Pro more computer or camera?
If you are going to buy the Google Pixel 10, you want the international version, or from someplace outside the USA.
Why?
The American version will be eSIM, only.
Last night I fell asleep listening to the latest episode of the Vergecast, which covered the #GooglePixel 10 phone & how it’s « AI stuffed ».
What did I dream about?
That I was browsing AI-generated photos on my phone. They seemed pointless and absurd (like: a mini car sitting on a car seat).
Then a white overlay appeared on screen, showing the energy consumption it took to generate the photos.
I remember screaming when I read « 100 liters » (22 gallons)… and then I woke up 😐
