I am assuming each version of the iPhone SEP firmware is encrypted with it's own unique key
It can't be. The SEP has to decrypt it, which means it needs the decryption key. Doesn't matter if you use symmetric or public key crypto, in the end you need to store a secret key in the SEP and compromising that key means you can decrypt every bit of firmware released for it.
This is similar to how battery management processor firmware updates work on their laptops. AES encrypted with a secret key, which they accidentally leaked themselves. The key is protected by the processor's secure memory, which has physical protections against reading it.
I generally don't worry too much about losing the information on my phone, because I cross borders regularly and have to backup and wipe it anyway. Encrypted backups stored on my server mean I don't need to carry sensitive stuff through border security.
My main concern is that an attacker gets hold of the phone before I can sanitize it. I want to be able to store private information on it, but obviously can't if it isn't secure.
It's certainly not for everyone. The clock thing is a non issue though. Ultra low power RC oscillator on chip, only +/-30% but that's all you need to measure a couple of days approximately. Protected the same way as the secure enclave.
But, again, if they posted a notice saying something akin to us being on their side, that'd be the end of their ability to post notices. I'll put up with a lot, but that's a big step over the line.
That's basically what has happened. Anyone who didn't condemn them in strong terms, e.g. Trump, is considered by them to be supportive. Their belief is that they are oppressed and so anyone who doesn't outright call them scum is trying their best to resist under the pressure exerted by Jews.
They have basically brought this on themselves by forcing every company serving them to choose between support for Nazism or no service.
it's based in biological systems developed to maximize species survival.
Okay, but why judge random people on what maximizes the survival of the species? I don't plan to have children, that's not very likely to help the survival of the species, so should I be judged and criticised for that decision?
It's just an arbitrary standard to measure people by, that you consider to be important but others might not.
you can knock that up right now!!!
I tend not to evaluate women I meet based on their potential for imminent impregnation. I don't say to them "hay, why don't do dye your hair my preferred colour, because it would really help my sexual fantasy." I also don't judge their worth as a human being by how attractive I find them, otherwise I'd consider man people, especially men, to be worthless.
If you just kept reading beyond the first sentence on that page you would have noticed that they answer your points in their FAQ.
Note that they never say that being obese is healthy, they say that simplistic solutions like "stop binging" and "eat less" tend not to be very helpful and that they instead advocate a more positive approach to weight management. Of course you can argue that their approach is ineffective, but not that they are suggesting being obese is healthy.
The title of the book is for shock value I think, a bit unfortunate.
It works on the premise that no-one can affect their weight
The basic premise of the body positive movement is that the best way to manage your weight is to be positive about your body and your efforts. You clearly know nothing at all about it, not even the most basic concepts.
Let's assume you are right (I didn't check). You didn't mention anything about how this all interacts with ME. Do you even know what ME is, or how it affects people?
That's exactly what the body positive movement is all about. Being healthy by feeling positive about yourself, rather than being motivated by hatred or shame about the way you look.
That's the "positive" part. Not that being obese is positive, that the best way to not be obese is to have a positive attitude towards your health.
Give it a few years for most of the other streaming services to fail, and those shows will come back to Netflix. I think YouTube will become more popular for series too. Some networks already upload old episodes, and monetize them.
It's either that or they don't get seen and produce no revenue.
The body positive movement is promoting unhealthy weight as being okay. From Wikipedia, because they describe it really well:
"The Body Positive Movement is a movement that encourages people to adopt more forgiving and affirming attitudes towards their bodies, with the goal of improving overall health and well-being. Whether people are nurturing their bodies and maintaining their weight, or finding a place in life where they are comfortable through working out, or changing their lifestyles to find a better attitude, the body positive movement focuses on building self-esteem through improving one's self-image."
In other words it is about living healthily, just through feeling good about yourself instead of being motivated by feeling insecure and unhappy. Considering how poorly the latter has worked over the decades, trying something different seems like a good idea.
Look at countries where there are not strong movements around body image. South Korea, for example, where cosmetic surgery is causing real problems. People feel immense pressure to have elective surgery to "correct" things which are not wrong in the first place, and to look exactly like the ideal.
Stop with your "conversion therapy" bullshit and acknowledge that there is a problem, and people are trying to keep it under control.
We have come a long way when you think about it, we don't have freak shows any more and we don't stop and gawk at people with injuries or deformities for the most part.
The body positive movement is saying that people are not ugly, they are just people. Human beings come in all shapes and sizes, and we shouldn't hold people to arbitrary and artificial standards of beauty or health.
That's not to say that they reject medical science, merely that you shouldn't judge them on your perception of their health. It's a bit like how calling someone an idiot is often less helpful than being supportive and non-judgemental when they try to learn.
The genetic component of attraction seems to be small. People in different cultures have different ideas of what the ideal body shape is, e.g. in Latin cultures they tend to prefer more curves and wider hips on women. People tend to find body types that they are not used to, i.e. foreign, more attractive too. I guess the adjective would be "exotic".
On top of that, what is considered attractive turns out to be heavily influenced by make-up, hair styling and nowadays photoshopping. Maybe you have seen those trashy magazines full of photos of celebrities without their make-up on, but did you realize that even newspapers photoshop pictures of politicians to make them more or less attractive as required by their editorial stance?
In any case, I think most guys eventually realize that they want someone they can form a deep relationship with, that they can talk to and build a life with, rather than someone who just looks hot.
As for babies, that's probably because until the invention of formula milk they were reliant on women to survive.
If the calorie intake level you need to reach to lose weight is so low that such a diet causes you other health issues and stops you working, then it isn't possible in any practical sense.
More exercise is possible, but not while also keeping my job. Due to ME, the level of exercise that is possible is relatively low (any more and I just crash, unable to exercise at all until I recover) so the amount of time out of employment would be impractical.
My current plan is to keep working at managing the ME better and hopefully slowing improving until it becomes possible to start shedding weight again. At least for the moment I'm maintaining my current weight, difficult as that is.
After careful consideration, I don't think I'll be accepting medical advice from you.
Technically you are correct. In practice, to do what you suggest I would have to give up working and eat a very carefully controlled diet and supplements to get enough nutrition. The effect on my general health would still be quite devastating.
Perhaps you meant to say "literally everyone with no other health issues."

If upon examination someone finds a vulnerability, then presumably they will let apple know...
Or sell it for a million on the vulnerability market.

It's good on health but bad on cost. Way, way too expensive.
I generally don't worry too much about losing the information on my phone, because I cross borders regularly and have to backup and wipe it anyway. Encrypted backups stored on my server mean I don't need to carry sensitive stuff through border security.
My main concern is that an attacker gets hold of the phone before I can sanitize it. I want to be able to store private information on it, but obviously can't if it isn't secure.
Because I have ME.
There is nothing you could attach that would extend the time limit. Also, cops aren't going to take the phone apart and connect stuff to the PCB.
It's certainly not for everyone. The clock thing is a non issue though. Ultra low power RC oscillator on chip, only +/-30% but that's all you need to measure a couple of days approximately. Protected the same way as the secure enclave.
I've long been thinking that we need a time limited storage system for our secrets like encryption keys.
I'd suggest storing such data in SRAM. A small capacitor can keep it powered (only needs nanoamps to maintain).
If the phone is powered off for too long or powered but the user doesn't enter the passkey for a day or two it wipes itself.
Prevents this kind of attack, prevents any kind of slow attack in fact.
You know, not every comment in response to yours is a direct attack on what you said.
I was arguing that it's just not such a big deal.
But, again, if they posted a notice saying something akin to us being on their side, that'd be the end of their ability to post notices. I'll put up with a lot, but that's a big step over the line.

Instead of respecting the deformed while being curious
Not sure putting them on display for shock value felt like "respect" or "curiosity" to them.

The basic premise of the body positive movement is that the best way to manage your weight is to be positive about your body and your efforts. You clearly know nothing at all about it, not even the most basic concepts.
Indeed, it's like -15 now. All that practice is paying off.
Let's assume you are right (I didn't check). You didn't mention anything about how this all interacts with ME. Do you even know what ME is, or how it affects people?
Your proposed diet is inadequate for my needs.
That's exactly what the body positive movement is all about. Being healthy by feeling positive about yourself, rather than being motivated by hatred or shame about the way you look.
That's the "positive" part. Not that being obese is positive, that the best way to not be obese is to have a positive attitude towards your health.
However, infrastructure business have a responsibility to uphold free speech.
If you want infrastructure to support freedom of speech, it needs to be nationalized.
