📱 Motorola va lansa telefoane preinstalate cu GrapheneOS în 2027 – la prețuri mai mari decât seria Pixel!

Publicația Ars Technica raportează despre un parteneriat surprinzător în lumea sistemelor de operare mobile securizate. Motorola intenționează să lanseze în 2027 o serie specială de smartphone-uri care vor rula nativ GrapheneOS, un sistem de operare bazat pe Android axat pe confidențialitate și securitate maximă.

Aceasta marchează o premieră importantă: extinderea oficială a proiectului GrapheneOS dincolo de seria Google Pixel, dar la un cost pe măsură.

✨ Punctele cheie ale anunțului:

🛡️ Alternativă comercială pentru GrapheneOS:
• Istoric, GrapheneOS a putut fi instalat doar pe telefoanele Google Pixel datorită cipului de securitate Titan și posibilității de a bloca bootloader-ul cu chei de criptare personalizate.
• Motorola lucrează la ajustarea hardware-ului propriu pentru a îndeplini cerințele extrem de stricte ale echipei GrapheneOS pe partea de securitate hardware și suport pentru actualizări.

💰 Prețuri peste gama Google Pixel:
• Spre deosebire de modelele standard din seria Moto G sau Edge, noile modele securizate vor fi poziționate pe segmentul premium, având prețuri estimate mai mari decât ale dispozitivelor Google Pixel echivalente.
• Costul suplimentar reflectă adaptările hardware dedicate, testarea riguroasă și suportul software extins de lungă durată.

🔒 Confidențialitate absolută direct din cutie:
• Dispozitivele vor fi livrate complet fără serviciile Google (Google Play Services) preinstalate, dar vor permite utilizarea variantei Sandboxed Google Play pentru compatibilitate cu aplicațiile obișnuite, fără ca Google să poată colecta date la nivel de sistem.

O mișcare îndrăzneață ce aduce sistemele de operare ultra-securizate în ecosistemul hardware al marilor producători de telefoane! 🚀

Oh dear 🥵

> While the overall trend in hot weather is well known, the hourly details matter. They highlight that the number of hot hours is increasing even faster than the number of hot days, for example. But the details also help us better represent what this means for human health.

The researchers write, “As heat risks continue to intensify, hourly-scale assessments will become essential for anticipating health impacts, informing equitable adaptation strategies and designing responsive early warning systems that reflect the new reality of round-the-clock heat exposure.”

"“Preliminary investigation shows that two of Link’s three reaction wheels currently are not operable, and there is some loss of functionality in its cold gas thruster system,” NASA said."

".. spacecraft is still generating sufficient electrical power in communication with ground teams .."

So you see, there;s only one thing I care about the ability to unlock the boot-loader and install a custom ROM.

I'll be glad to receive upvotes.

🚀✨ Wow, Ars Technica bravely tackles the bold ambition of "simulating everything"—or maybe just a tiny bit, if we're being honest. 🤔 In a groundbreaking exposé, they reveal the *scandalous* limits of world models, which we totally didn't see coming. Who knew reality was so pesky? 🙄
