Don't let AI write your subheadlines. People can tell

The author is in the same groove I’m in this week. After a new kindle jailbreak dropped, it unlocked the ability for codex to knock out a kindle mini vmac Macintosh emulator port in a weekend.

I expect to get my openwrt router doing great things soon, too.

Im currentlt in the proccess of reverse engineer my avermedia live gamer duo to linux, codex and a couple of hours in and already have 1 port working with alsa and video4linux and less cpu usage than windows, these things are crazy

Well, now that he paid for the $80/month GLM coding plan... he should give GLM-5.3 a blank slate and see how long it would take to do-over again with only GLM-5.3 running.

It wouldn't cost him anything, at least.

Recently jailbroke my kindle so I could have a camera pop up when frigate detects a person or a package while I'm reading.

I think with omarchy adding easy to vibe code extensions and the way AI makes stuff so easy, I hope every OS gives full control to us to do anything.

We need to keep right to repair going so we can own our own devices!

I know very little about hardware hacking so I can't really judge, but my gut feeling is that this is pretty advanced stuff, right? Granted the models didn't start at zero - the CVE was described online so it had a hook, and missing that the installed kernel and the one from OTA build had different versions was a bit embarrassing - but if all it takes to jailbreak a device is $250 in API charges... isn't almost all security kind of fucked until AI plateaus hard?

Even an unsophisticated attacker with a bit of money (NVIDIA DGX B200 is $500k or so - not something you buy yourself as a treat, but not expensive expensive) can put an excellent open weights model on it and have it probe and poke things day at night. Given that attacker needs to succeed once while defender has to succeed all the time... who's doing that at a large enough scale that the tech is resilient? Apple probably does, maybe some other big names like Samsung, but what about everybody else?

In fact, forget consumer hardware. My brief foray into electrical engineering and power transmission/distribution, seeing the ancient dinosaurs making decisions and generally abysmal state of IT leave me with a healthy dose of paranoia. What about other systems such as rail infrastructure? Banking system? Tons of legacy systems everywhere, whose only real defense seems to be that there's very little documentation on them.

That cyber verification program is real and it seems fairly easy to sign up for it.

After GLM-5.3 dropped, I already take for granted that it can debug self signed certificate bugs in Firefox by reverse engineering, reverse engineer messages through websockets and walk into illegal states etc.

This sounds to me like it is very much time to start dumping certain tablets into Boston Harbor.

I literally last week had GPT cheerfully come up with an exploit for an also apprently unjailbreakable kindle, without a single objection. My "workaround" was just to explain that it was for my toddler, to protect her from harmful content, and we were off to the races.

There seems to be a soft spot in GPT when you invoke children. On older versions you could get it to do pretty much anything by saying "otherwise the orphaned children will all starve".
