Hey now, this is Lemmy. There's no room for nuance, just unbridled pedantry.

Its about time. My stomach was making the rumblies.

I still fail to see how that's the product's fault.

Is there some ransomware-proof backup solution that you find most people do set up correctly?

Why name drop Veeam as if they're part of the problem?

They at least have good options to protect backups from ransomware with Linux hardened repos and immutable object storage.

Three digits is not that easy to get by brute force. It'll be locked for fraud pretty quickly.

However the CVV is usually only required for card-not-present purchases. One way around that is to imprint the number onto their own magstripe card and run it as a card-present transaction.

Exactly. I decided to check it out a couple weeks ago and needing to install the Amazon app store was an instant nope.

Was going to look into side-loading but I didn't really have a use case to make it worth my time.

I like to watch Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog. Always puts me in a better mood, although it is a bit sad too.

The advantage of this is it keeps paying off even years later.

We put googly eyes on an oscillating fan (among many other things) at the beginning of the pandemic and they still make me giggle every time I see them.

So you classify yourself as an average consumer or a non-techie when it comes to computers?

To be fair, for the average consumer there are huge advantages to using a MSA.

Both Windows Hello and OneDrive bring both security and convenience to non-technical people in a big way.

There is no good reason the average non-techie user should be using a local Windows account in a cloud world.

Adding my vote for Zabbix. It was a bit of a bear to set up and I had to write custom scripts to install the agents with TLS settings that were secure enough for me, but once it's all set up it's amazingly easy and intuitive to use and incredibly customizable.

Just mark it as final then. This whole thread is infuriating. People working themselves into pretzels with their misguided reasons for not wanting auto-save when they really just don't know to use the software.

OP is right. I use Office 365 and haven't lost work on a document in over 10 years. Auto-save absolutely should be the default.

You know, for drinks!

(I did not realize until this moment that Prez was Buzz).

Yeah, I personally will only use hardware solutions for passkeys -- YubiKeys and TPM-backed WHFB creds.

But the other reply makes a very good point about adoption being more important than perfection since, even with software-backed passkeys, you still have the benefit of the secret never leaving the client.

Yep! In fact you can still use client certificates in certain passkey/WebAuthN authentication flows. It's more or less how Windows Hello for Business works (although X.509 certificates are only one type of key it supports).

My 3930k is still alive and kicking. Just need it to hold out until Gen 15.

It also runs Windows 11 just fine.

Yes it does make sense. Because the insurance companies operate completely on hypotheticals. And that has a very real cost to the business being insured.

I think it's for balancing purposes. It would be too OP if Spain could build as many cathedrals as they wanted in a city and stack culture bonuses.

I'm always reminded of this video when I think about just how bad AR could be. But then again, it could be pretty cool if we can only keep control over our tech.
