Man, we've definitely improved the survivability of industrial accidents in recent times. I heard about another guy who fell into an upholstery machine, but he's fully recovered now!

I mean, random NFC tags, I can understand. But, isn't advising someone to avoid QR codes obsolete by now? It was a pretty worthwhile attack vector at one point, but nowadays most phones will ask "Do you want to

<handle>

<contents in full>

Although, now that I think about it, it is best practice to advise to the lowest common denominator... Sometimes I overestimate users' ability to avoid doing stupid things...

Cave Johnson intensifies

Me too, bud. 😭

Makes me think of this clip from Camp Camp

GUYS GUYS!! If we call their characters gay, we get sick bonus art!!!

GAY GAY HOMOSEXUAL GAY OMG SO GAY SO BEAUTIFULLY WONDERFULLY GAYYYYYYYYYY

There's probably a better way to do this, but I've just started using BLE Radar (F-Droid, Play Store), which can be set up to (among other things) tell you where your phone last saw a particular bluetooth address.

You don't get the benefit of the tracking network that iPhones, and now Androids, are a part of, and it's not built into the base system, but it's FOSS, and your location data stays local.

Billionaire is turbo upsetti that they are forced to pay for something they don't want to pay for, even if providing that something costs the provider money to provide it to them.

FIFY

Apparently, it's actually quite common for directors of Godzilla movies to take inspiration from their cats for Godzilla's mannerisms lol

I agree that if there was enough space in the recovery partition to begin with, this wouldn't be a problem, but the user isn't the party that specified that size or the party that decided to add enough stuff to the recovery partition to exceed that spec.

MS knows that this is a widely-deployed configuration (they deployed it), but they're going ahead with an automatic update that is incompatible with that configuration anyway, failing to communicate to the user why the failure occurred, and refusing to automate a fix to the thing their automation broke in the first place.

Waow. MS can't decide if their users should have control of their hardware or not.

Your linux bootloader and efi config? That belongs to Windows, and it will make changes as much as it wants. A recovery partition that has no usefulness outside their own ecosystem? Yeah, they know it's fucked, and they fucked it, but it's your computer, you fix it!

Windows refuses to recognize anything except the first partition on any storage device that it classifies as "removable", so this tracks. Just zero the partition table, and Windows will offer to format it like it wants on next plug.

Chromium and its descendants also do this, but yes, that's implemented by the browser itself.

Support for global touch gestures is dependent on the DE's feature set.

I don't think it's meant to be driven.

I mean... It's not even meant to be a vehicle, tbh. It's an ego trip, status symbol, or virtue signal (pick up to 3) in the form of a vehicle.

The part where it can propel itself and it's occupants from place to place is, in fact, a bonus feature.

Oh man, I would have learned so much so fast by breaking stuff and having to fix it. It's how I learned what I know now, just later. This is fantastic

They get paid when the least amount of people they insure use their services. They're not incentivized to help those they've insured. The less they have to pay out to providers, the better the executive bonuses. Thus, they are diligent in collecting premiums, but can just sit on their hands when it comes to paying out.

The more the system denies and delays a claim, the fewer insured people are willing or able to put themselves through the bureaucracy gauntlet, the fewer pay outs.

They're not in the business of insurance, they're in the business of making money from the business of insurance. It's over-complicated on purpose.

My dude. The person you're replying to said nothing about whether or not they should be able to say what they want. They simply stated their opinion about what they said.

Log off for a bit and work on your reading comprehension.

My partner and I are playing through Bokuro this way, and it's so much fun :D

Running Arch, so not really exposed, but still had a compromised version installed.

Me: fixes exposure to vuln

Also me: grabs popcorn

This is going to be an interesting story once this all quiets down...
