Non- phone carrier variants of Google Pixels because of Grapheme OS. The crap that Verizon pumps out blocks the boot loader to be unlocked, but the ones google and amazon sells can do OEM boot loader unlocks.

Edit: also want to point out, pixels usually get the most updates out of all androids. So long as its in the support window, google will update drivers and kernels for it.

In the realm of firewall applications, i use the following: ° Ipfire is easy to use, but lacks ipv6 support and it doesn't have otp. It has lots of packages though.

° Alpine is good, if you don't want a GUI or want to spend time figuring out how to build a web ui (really good for beginners as its mostly xml)

° openwrt is good fit for low end hardware (SPARC or arm processors mostly) but also works on x86.

° opnsense - like pfsense, but more up to date. Has some quirks in it (like if you block both incoming and outgoing, but just want to allow 80/443, the rules look weird...like the direction you have to allow is in, but destination is 80/443. Very strange bug that isn't in pfsense).

° hardenedbsd firewall - literally just opnsense but with hbsd's fully patched kernel. No repo though.

That being said, you can make any distro a firewall, just use iptables/pf/ipfw/ipfilter rules through command line, and you can add anything in that distros repo you can think of.

Personally, I'd advise to use opnsense over pfsense. Opnsense kernels are more up to date, and the devs are less toxic.

Ipfire is a Linux alternative that is easy to use, just no otp.

The word you're looking for is steganography

Mostly, its my own personal choice / preference.

When I see chatgpt spun up code, sometimes its rock solid. Sometimes it uses weird logic that is hard to follow. I prefer it to review my code, rather than review its.

I'm kind of partial to how military concepts use cases for ai. Like anything that can do damage or complex tasks must be done by a human. Mediocre tasks, I can see a use for it.

Like for instance, write a code to automate scheduling jobs to backup multiple systems using this fileset to backup or skip I'd feel OK to let ai do. They should all be basically the same. But to script code that is critical to infrastructure and/or complex I feel it is not the right tool to use.

Edit: all LLMs are basically the same imo. The github one might have access to more code though, idk never used it. If it does look at private repos, then I'd say it would be better, but honestly I think they're about the same.

Lord have mercy. Canada has lost their minds.

Chatgpt is good for code reviews. I wouldn't trust it for making code though.

More like google searches and a lot of CTL+c and CTL+v

Grsecurity stopped providing their kernel patches for free years ago. The alpine grsec patches are years old -- like before spectre/meltdown. Don't use them. Just use hardenedbsd/netbsd/openbsd.
