  • buy any AMD laptop, replace the wifi card, install your favorite distro and it will run like magic.

    You get a new, capable, and power-efficient device, while not bothering with damn old ThinkPads or giving insane amount of money to s76.

  • People run around with smartphones, everyone needs to register at their residency address, most people casually pay by card/phone literally everywhere, e.g. you could tell how much they drunk on a Friday night and in what bar, but oh boy, no, no, no, lemmy needs to pay for car 20k in cash, so the car salesman could cheat on taxes.

  • You're confused. You talk about EU but bring up an example from your broken af dumbfuckistan.

    It's illegal to discriminate like this in the EU and the credit score bs doesn't exist, and everyone with a stable job gets their house mortgage.

    This new measure will only stop criminals and money laundering or tax evasion. It will have absolutely zero impact on your regular citizens.

  • With this fuckin lemmy you never know. You say something minorly controversial, you get beaten up. You come out to be transphobic and they pat you on the shoulder. Go figure.

    Although, I'm certainly not oppressed.

  • Most white people are not able to get a proper strong tan. And even when they do it compares to SPF 5, which is not nearly enough to protect you from working in the field for the entire day.

    So, yeah, you'll have a tanned neck, but also it will be red very, very often.

  • This would only be an interim solution. The attacker here sets up a fake github.com and collects credentials. So, VPN would be first trying to route over some internal hostname/IP address and probably just fail.

    However, if everyone uses some VPN, the attacker can start imitating the VPN server. Or all the common ones. Redirect all traffic to a fake myvpnname.com/login with a message "you're using your device from a suspicious location, please confirm your credentials". You're on a plane, so you think this makes sense, punch in your password and it's gone!
