I get these highway toll scams regularly and it’d be amusing if it wasn’t so annoying as I live in the 5th largest state in the US and as far as I know there are zero toll roads in the entire state. In the big scheme of things I suppose it’s good that the scammers are dumb though…

AppleInsiderToll text scams are on the rise, and Apple can't fix itHighway text scams are a big problem that's continuing to grow with the use of at least 60,000 domain names. There's little Apple can do about it, but you can protect yourself. Here's what's going on.

Today, I continue my crimes against humanity by proceeding with turning my old phone into a Linux server.

The software runs great after some configuration. I’ve now installed a CalDAV server (Baïkal) alongside Sharkey, both running in Docker.

My heatsinks for Raspberry Pi-sized devices arrived today! I’m still waiting for my fans before I can start designing the new 3D-printed case. I also need to figure out how to power the fans alongside the phone.

Here’s what it looks like with the heatsinks attached—ignore the black stuff on the left, it’s copper underneath, so it works really well. #exanimus #phone #arm #linux #docker #sharkey #selfhosted #caldav #baical #homeserver #arm #exanimus #phone #arm #linux #docker #sharkey #selfhosted #caldav #baical #homeserver #arm

A disassembled Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro with its battery, motherboard, and ribbon cables exposed. Black heatsinks are attached for cooling, and the phone is powered via a USB cable with a blue LED glow. Some black thermal or adhesive material is visible on the metal shielding, and the edges show signs of wear.

Sometimes it's hard to stop ourselves from automatically checking our phones for notifications or simply ping-ponging between our favourite apps. Senior tech correspondent Adam Clark Estes for @Vox talks us through Apple's and Google's attempts at digital wellness and explains what can actually help us to limit our screen time.

There’s a yellow and red phone that also looks like a mousetrap on a background of read and yellow stripes.

Cellebrite Is Using AI to Summarize Chat Logs and Audio from Seized Mobile Phones

"The proliferation of AI through law enforcement tools already has civil liberties experts concerned. “When you have results from an AI, they are not transparent. Often you cannot trace back where a conclusion came from, or what information it is based on. AIs hallucinate," one said."

@requiem Smartphones aren't really like that... and are not great for creating. Sure, they can capture what you create (audio/video/etc) but as an instrument of creativity they are... lacking.

As a tool of consuming, yeah, they are good at that.

I wrote about this in 2010.

Ok my US friends I need some help. I'm in the UK but I've had a NYC phone number (718) for ever via Skype, which is now closing.

My MiL uses the number to call us without international call charges.

I need a recommendation for a Skype replacement that I can port the number to and who can give me a mobile app to make and receive calls on. The ability to redirect calls to my landline would be an advantage.

Any recommendations gratefully received.

Ok #vintageElectronics nerds! tell me about these things…

The “MR” designation denotes some kind of diode (it stands for Metal Rectifier, a notation hangover from before silicon/germanium diodes) and they’re obviously arranged as full bridge rectifiers

They’re in a PSU made for the British Post Office in 1972

The brown stripe seems to denote the + end, but what does the other stripe mean?

A brown pcb with 4 small diodes labelled MR14 to MR17, clearly arranged as a bridge rectifier. The diodes are marked with brown and orange stripes.
