  • That's exactly right. I was about to say how people usually don't even "not take it seriously" but rather don't even think or know about it. But you already said that yourself haha :D

  • The lions share IMHO is at 23&me. Offering such a poorly secured service is negligence, in the face of the data's high sensitivity nature.

  • This shouldn't be "offered" IMHO, this should be mandatory. Yes, people are very ignorant about cyber security (I've studied in this field, trust me, I know). But the answer isn't to put the responsibility on the user! It is to design products and services which are secure by design.

    If someone is actually able to crack accounts via brute-forcing common passwords, you did not design a secure service/product.

    [Edit: spelling]

  • I would say it's partially their fault. IMHO 23&me is mainly to blame. They should've enforced (proper) 2FA. Sure, people should've known better, but they didn't; they oftenly don't. But 23&me did know better.

    Edit: spelling

  • Thoughts on this?

  • Isn't screen sharing working since some time? Works even on WebEx from Firefox, can pick any window to share. Granted a few years back it didn't work, but now it does. Maybe it's a zoom bug... 🤔

  • Best ask that in the sync community, hopefully someone there can help :)

  • If you have no haters, you're doing something wrong ;) (Ve)

  • That's a bit rude, don't you think? He's a person too and reads this comment... How would you feel reading st. like that about you? :/

  • Who does? And why? Lemmy needs content, why wouldn't one appreciate your posts? ^^

  • I.e. Karl Popper's tolerance paradox of being intolerant towards intolerance. Or, in a less confusing way: if someone doesn't adhere to the mutual rules set by a group of people (read "society"), those rules no longer apply to them.

  • Respectfully, do you know what incels are? Besides, while your advice is not wrong, I think it's a bit too broad and OP specifically asked for places/forums. But it definitely holds some truth and utility.

  • Scrolling past this on an amoled screen with extra-low brightness this kinda looked like a satellite with solar arrays lol

  • First, many people don't know how to use WYSIWYG word processing programs, you'revery right about that!

    Second, both systems have overlapping use cases which makes it difficult to differentiate between "technically better" and "better in my opinion", i.e. objectively vs. subjectively.

    Finally, use what tool you're nist comfortable with. But you may want to invest time to get more comfortable with another tool, if your current one isn't suitable for your job.

    PS: things I do repeatedly, I do best in LaTeX. Because for other things I've already forgotten how to do them and have to re-learn them each time, which might be more time consuming than using other tools (or just Markdown with LaTeX support hehe)

  • Can somebody "translate" or rephrase the headline for me? I kinda have troubles sometimes reading headlines in English, they just don't make any sense to me. When comparing German headlines (my native tongue), I guess the reason for that is heavy usage of ellipses(?)

  • I think he was being sarcastic, playing with words. Meaning, that you trade in time, runtime and memory and get nothing in return :D so a pretty bad trade haha.

    Of course it's worse, I mean, that was the point of this blogpost, wasn't it? :p It's just a (long) joke.

  • It's the default in Germany I think. At least it used to be, knew no one who had something different as a child. Just a bit less convenient to store as they're a bit bigger.

  • Best UX of the FOSS clients in my experience

  • Nailed it. No one can argue with that 🧠
