The device operates within a voltage range of 1.0 V to 20.0 V and a nominal current between 7.5 nA and 33 nA, all within a compact 20 mm by 20 mm by 12 mm form factor.

Yeah, can't even power an ESP32. Wake me up when this thing can do between 7.5 mA and 33 mA, not nA.

This one actually works a bit differently. Parents will need to install an app called Kids Wallet which will provide some kind of an API to the digital services to verify their age without revealing any other credentials to the platform. And the birth data will come directly from the Greek civil registry.

According to Euractiv, the wallet app will use the Greek digital ID of a parent or guardian, validated by TaxisNet, the country’s national authorization service. In this way, parents can use their digital ID app to request age assurance to validate the child’s identity using date of birth data from the Greek civil registry. The government says third-party applications could retrieve the child’s age via API with parental consent.

I am not an advocate for age verification laws. Quite the contrary as I believe they create a slippery slope, as at the end of the day someone has to decide that is considered "inappropriate" for children and the definition of that keeps shifting based on how is on power.

Still though, it is a lot less worse than what many US states are doing, where everyone is supposed to upload a government ID and go through KYC.

You give it too much credit. In order to be able to lie it would first need do be actually capable of understanding what it writes. LLMs are text prediction algorithms. They cannot think.

The only way to make a digital device 100% secure is by using a hammer.

For anyone who wants an open source alternative GNOME Mahjongg is actually pretty good.

There is a 16GB one too. It sells for like $300 right now though. As for what you can do with it, one use case would be running something like Proxmox with a few VMs. Myself though I'd rather stick with my N100 system which is also x86.

I would go for a simple humidity sensor. You just need to do a bit of data collection first to get a baseline of "what taking a shower usually looks like" and then based on that create the automation.

The only problem with that is that depending on how accurate you want it to be, you may have to wait a while to take a few measurements until it triggers the automation.

For something like mood lights I would just use a ZigBee switch if I'm being honest though.

The answer is to get a used Pixel. With a bit of looking around you may be able to find some pretty good deals. The Pixel 8a is the sweetspot is my opinion. OEM minimum support until May 2031 and old enough to find at a very good price. But not that old for its battery to very likely be busted.

Same here, Debian since Squeeze. A couple of years ago I just decided to go a step further and go with Kicksecure. Which is basically just hardened Debian.
