  • Because they are rich. Also Norway has quite large government subsidies for EVs. IIRC they are exempt from the 25% VAT for example.
    EVs aren't exactly cheap, but petrol cars are even more expensive.

  • But they did. All 7 million of them - that's why their data was visible for those 14000.

    As it says in the article:

    From these 14,000 initial victims, however, the hackers were able to then access the personal data of the other 6.9 million victims because they had opted-in to 23andMe’s DNA Relatives feature. This optional feature allows customers to automatically share some of their data with people who are considered their relatives on the platform.

    Here's what each and every one of those 7 million people opted in and agreed to:

  • If you share your nudes with the "friends only" privacy settings on facebook, and someone else accesses one of your friends accounts because they reused their password and proceeds to leak those photos, is it the fault of Facebook, your friend, the person leaking them, or you?

    Because that is exactly what happened here. Credit stuffing reused passwords and scraping opt-in "friends only" shared data between accounts.

  • I had it mapped to enter at one point for faster copy pasting of code. Ctrl+c, ctrl+v, pinky capslock enter, ctrl+c etc.

  • No female nipples. Bare male chests are perfectly fine.
    Get someone like GG Bridget or Poison from Final Fight and the website implodes though.

  • Thanks to the Steam Deck and proton development, these days that's pretty much limited to a few incompatible multiplayer anticheat systems. Gone are the days where a developer actually had to make a Linux build.

  • You didn't read it either. They gained access to shared information between the accounts because both accounts had enabled "share my info with my relatives" option.

    Logging into someones Facebook and seeing their friends and all the stuff they posted as "friends only" and their private DM discussions isn't a hack or a vulnerability, it's how the website works.

  • It wasn't exploiting a vulnerability, they gained access to other peoples data because the site has a deliberate feature to share your data with your relatives if both have allowed that. That's why the term used is "scraped", they copied what the site showed.
    When someone logs in to a Facebook account, it's not a vulnerability that they can now see all of the info their friends have set to "friends only", essentially.

    Also they used a botnet so the login attempts weren't suspicious enough to do anything about - they weren't brute forcing a single user multiple times, but each trying once with the correct password.

  • There is a clicky switch mod that was released a few weeks back. No idea if it's any good or not through.

  • Most of these patches seem to just be them manually going "if someone asks about x, don't answer" for each new trick someone comes up with. I guess eventually they'd be able to create a comprehensible list.

  • definitely, but people can change

    He did get sent to a psych ward instead of prison with that exact hope. IIRC the biggest issue wasn't just the hacks, but that he was extremely violent and showed no remorse whatsoever as well.

  • Eipä omistajilta hirveän hyvin tuo rekisteröinti itse ole onnistunut kun vuodenvaihteeseen mennessä pitäisi sinne ruokaviraston koirarekisteriin ilmestyä yli puoli miljoonaa koiraa lisää.

  • Not that many 18TB SSDs available though. Might (and probably will) change in the future, but today, if you want massive amounts of storage, HDDs are your only reasonable solution (ignoring magnetic tape) unless you really require the read & write speeds of an SSD. Imagine Backblaze trying to replace their 46000 16TB HDDs with a few hundred thousand smaller SSDs in their datacenter.

  • I would love to have an indicator for adaptive cruise control because the way it only reacts to the car right in front of you rather aggressively means it causes shockwave traffic jams unless the human driver behind you keeps enough distance.

  • Of course they would, Apple invented stealing from others and claiming they invented it after all.

  • So would a book could be considered intelligent if it was large enough to contain the answer to any possible question? Or maybe the search tool that simply matches your input to the output the book provides, would that be intelligence?

    To me, something can't be considered intelligent if it lacks the ability to learn.

  • The design spec of a CPU is the clock speed it runs at coming from the factory, overclocking by definition means going above it - that's why it's called overclocking.
