What was the deal with .org?

EDIT: seems like Ethos Capital private equity firm wanted the .org registry, and Xavier Becerra (Attorney General of California at the time) wrote a letter that played major role in transaction being rejected

> Dear Messrs. Botterman and Marby:

>

> I urge ICANN to reject the transfer of control over the .ORG registry to Ethos Capital.

> The proposed transfer raises serious concerns that cannot be overlooked.

Thanks yeah was too lazy to go searching for a link.

I believe the complete HTML version is right below the "Download PDF" button. Also I bet you could reproduce the cheatsheet using this HTML converted to markdown and some example from how other Posit (formerly RStudio) cheatsheets are made: https://github.com/rstudio/cheatsheets/tree/main/html

Same can be said about loopback device in general. Why do you need to use networking when you are literally on the same device and can use binder/dbus and friends with native apps?

Shizuku uses Binder AFAICS[^1]. Looking deeper it seems that Shizuku does not connect to the device itself per se, but rather it has a privileged server launched manually through adb. Never used Shizuku, so can't say for sure.

Shizuku essentially implements an API that your OS creator should have implemented via using adb access to have more privileges than a regular app could have access to. If your OS creator implemented these APIs they could properly implement them without this hack or requiring adb to be used.

Arguably PCIe lanes the thunderbolt exposes are a differentiating factor, not the maxed-out specs that "plain" usb-c cables can have. Although to be fair, I've never used the PCIe lanes on thunderbolt ports.

And it comes with tidyverse-like cheatsheet[1] that I confused with ggplot2 when first discovered plotnine

Sorry for the confusion. Though, it is a mango tree in a mango garden! The continued development and maintenance of plotnine is supported by Posit, PBC, the same company behind the Tidyverse.

Sort of, there're more posts about graphene in the year 2026 & they get much more attention. Aggregated some data and plotted it with my agent: https://boop.icu/Pr.png

Can you add CopperheadOS data 2014-2018 and AndroidHardening Project from 2018-2019?

The repo got archived in march, I wonder whether it means that Apple uses something other than CUPS on their devices? Quick search suggests they still use CUPS, but why would they archive the project then?

They haven’t been actively maintaining it for years. https://mjtsai.com/blog/2025/03/26/apples-dormant-cups/:

“It looks like nothing has happened with Apple’s code since a security fix in 2022, and the repo comment makes it sound like Apple is intentionally leaving its support stuck at an old version:

Apple CUPS is the version of CUPS that is shipped with macOS and iOS. For the current version of CUPS that is used on other operating systems, see https://openprinting.github.io/cups for details.”

The archiving of the repo seems to imply they fully moved to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internet_Printing_Protocol / https://www.pwg.org/ipp/everywhere.html in their next OS release (might be based on CUPS, but also could be a clean sheet implementation)

That's what I wondered as well, whether it is a new implementation, or perhaps they still use their version of cups? Or maybe they use the forked openprinting cups? Would be nice if somebody knowledgeable with a mac device told whether the cups is still used

On nixos they're not, there's a single executable in /bin -- /bin/sh, and a single executable in /usr/bin -- /usr/bin/env
