Sounds like a Xiaomi / amazfit kinda thing. You can get some amazing deals, or just check out AliExpress.


Gods, this is giving me flashbacks. I had to find a usb-c to display port 1.4a cable for my Gsync Ultimate screen with 240hz. I tried out I think 10 different cables, before I found one that actually worked....


Then don't buy it through steam. Just buy it through a third party like greenmangaming. Valve gets zero cut there.


A SEPA Transfer message is limited to 140 symbols. This is 132. I just tried the exact phishing message in an internal booking from one of my accounts to another, and it went through without issue.


So, what's next? Will Chrome ship with hard coded DNS, so that DNS based adblockers will stop working as well? Where (and when) does my rights what to display on my devices end?


Ship has already sailed, it's called DoH. Please note, that it is to make your DNS safer and has absolutely nothing to do with removing your ability to resolve DNS in whatever way you want to(cough adblock cough).


How does DoH remove any capabilities of what the resolver can respond to queries with? I block ads via a DoH resolver.


DoH is intended to be indistinguishable from HTTPS traffic, if the application specifies a specific DoH server a DNS based ad block will not work.

Right now The ad companies have not really figured this out and DoH largely works like port 53 DNS did. But give it a few years. They will up their game and our ability to mitm our own dns queries will vanish. I will miss it.


Freedom of DNS choice has nothing to do with DoH.

And you can definitely mitm a non-configurable DoH resolver if you absolutely needed to do that, as long as you can add your own trusted CA on a device.


> Freedom of DNS choice has nothing to do with DoH

The attack vector that DoH offers is that data exfiltration companies will start shipping their own DNS resolver in javascript to work around DNS-based filtering. They can't do this with regular DNS because the network traffic can still be observed and blocked independently, but how will you block a browser from accessing specific https URLs without MITM'ing all traffic?

So yes, DoH does have something to do with DNS choice: it can completely subvert the OS-provided domain resolver service as well as the browser-configured one.


Are you suggesting that Chrome is going to allow individual websites to override the browser DNS settings? And also skip bootstrapping?

I'm very confused by this comment.


I guess I just missed that?! I'm running a mix of Adguard and nextdns blockers on some of my mobile devices, and both are apparently handling the DoH issue for you; by just blanket blocking the resolvers and/or ports, to force a fallback.... I need a Beer.


Don't worry. Once their telemetry shows that DoH is working for enough users they'll push to remove the fallback for security reasons.


> my rights

There's no such thing in the Google realm


It's probably a Lenovo board, which usually has most of the IO on a daughter board connected to the Mainboard. Only the USB-C that had the display port/HDMI alt mode sits on the Mainboard.


That's a widespread practice among OEMa that want to use the same board in a 13/14" chassis and a 15/16" chassis. They just need a longer cable to the daughterboard for the larger laptop. That usually means all the high-power and high-speed ports are on the same side of the laptop and on the far side you get USB 3.0 and headphone ports.
