Hmmm I don't really know. You can try with this tutorial I found.

The way I did it, is I checked my motherboard's website, and saw they posted a recent firmware update.

I used to have some similar issues when playing games, and the cause of it was my motherboard's firmware. Maybe check and see if it is up to date?

Congrats on exercising even though you didn't feel like it!

Imo that's a very good way to get used to doing it, and in turn a way to get in shape (or whatever your goal is). Keep on keeping on!

Yes, and it makes sense that it would, and I'd happily give such data to developers I trust to make the programs I love better.

However, that same click data (maybe with some how-long-have-you-looked-at-this data) can definitely be used to target ads at me, which in my book is not okay. And as I said in my comment before, it's really difficult (at least for me) to trust companies.

To me, telemetry would be like a sofa company wanting to put some cameras in your home to see if you're using the sofa the way they thought you would. It just feels... off.

“90% of crashes happen right after the player uses a grenade”.

Imo, a simple opt-in crash report gets the job done. Technically it is telemetry, but a crash report is more justified than a "where have you clicked" report.

telemetry data for software from reputable companies does not get sold

There's just no trust in companies to not sell my data. I cannot trust Microsoft nor Google nor any other company to not sell my data, having seen the shenanigans every single company is willing to pull off to get a cent more a year.

this seems like applying the same rules to everyone equally

Though it can seem fair, applying the same rules to everyone equally can be very racist.

Thank you!

That's it, thanks!

Thanks, updated my list!

Can someone match the remaining runes to their meme template?

I got:

Edit: got 'em! From left to right:

1. Virgin vs. Chad
2. Death Knocking on Doors
3. Distracted Boyfriend
4. Loss
5. Me Explaining to my Mom
6. Woman Yelling at a Cat
7. Daily Struggle/Two Buttons
8. Is this a pigeon?
9. Drake like/don't like

I tested high on the IQ scale. I'm single, unemployed and have trouble making friends.

I know I'm just a stranger on the Internet, but those are symptoms of gifted people.

You should look into giftedness. I've recently read a book on it (in french), and it's helped me lots in understanding my condition, my differences with others as well as the challenges I face in the corporate world.

I'd be happy to talk about it if you wish!

people not understanding your thought process

First, knowing that you have a mind that may take shortcuts that others aren't used to taking is helpful. Whenever you explain something to someone else, it is useful to explicit the reason you take these shortcuts.

For instance, if while talking about subject A, your mind makes a link to subject B and them to C, you have to talk about B before talking about C, even if to you B is evident and there's no point in talking about it.

people not understanding your way of life

People don't need to understand my way of life. It's my life, I do what I want. I can explain to them why I chose to do the things I do, but ultimately I'm going to do it whether they understand or not – unless they convince me that it's a bad way to live.

From what I understand, Cloudflare can block some DDoS attacks, but not all of them.

The attacks on Lemmy have to do with poorly optimized SQL requests; these are requests that shouldn't take long to execute, but do due to some oversight. By spamming these requests, the attackers can bring Lemmy on it's knees.

Actually, wouldn't this attack better be categorized as a DoS attack ? What's so distributed about it ?

Your link (or at least what I've read from it) doesn't cover why it would be bad to make the ocean saltier; it only talks about the rise of the salty ocean water.

Isn't laying death traps... you know, illegal?

Ow, the first relationship's ending sounds really rough, I feel for you :/

Godspeed to your sobriety!

I think it'll come with time. As Lemmy (the software) and its userbase matures, the situation will be better for smaller communities.

Can someone explain to me what is the link between Mastodon and Lemmy? From the Wikipedia chart, it looks like ActivityPub links them together in some fashion; I just don't get how.
