  • Check if the password and user name is the default for the model. Google the model or see if there is a sticker on it.

    There is usually a factory reset button. Again Google how to do that for your model. Then you can log in with the default password. It will also reset every other setting too so if you lack the knowledge to reconfigure everything else they will notice.

    If either of your parents is better than you at IT I advise against trying. They will notice.

  • This name was made for lemmy. I have different names on different platforms because users from one place should not me able to find me anywhere else.

    I have a gaming name I use on multiple places however.

  • Any compensation for commuting to your regular work place is considered taxable income.

    The government allows for a tax deduction if commuting costs exceed a certain amount.

    I would not do anything about it as is the custom in Sweden. If they want to change it their union can negotiate it, but they are generally more interested a bigger raise than misc benefits.

  • They have a regular backup cylinder that has all the vulnerabilities of a regular lock.

    On top of that they have a bunch of electronics that can be vulnerable.

    I can't see how it would be possible for them to be more secure unless you're someone who leaves their keys around a lot and a smart lock would let you not have a key on you.

  • Which account? Salary account that my card is connected to? That is about two months of expenses.

    Emergency fund account? Now we're getting somewhere. It's about one years expenses I get.

    Investment account? I'll be able to fund my current lifestyle with the dividends forever even with inflation adjustments.

  • World of Warcraft no doubt. About 2500 hours per year and been active for 12-ish years.

    War thunder is probably second at about 3.5k hours.

    I have no way of estimating Diablo 2 or Starcraft 2 or Baldurs gate 2.

  • The economy would come to a screeching halt for a week or two when everyone is suffering from withdrawal.

    Coffee would be served in underground cafeterias. The criminal gangs would immediately find a new very lucrative market in coffee smuggling.

  • As usual the world is a complex place. But with a focus on simplicity rather than accuracy:

    Responsibly used debt is a useful tool to grow your economy both today and in the future.

    Irresponsible use will buy you something useless today that tomorrow's tax payer will have to pay for.

    Your government may build a bridge to transport goods from one place to another so business can grow and generate more tax longer and a school to educate the kids and a port to sell your stuff to foreigners. You could do this with taxes but if you are to pay for all of that with taxes you'll have to raise taxes so much that people can't afford to live for the 5 years it takes before they get the benefits from your projects.

    Irresponsible use would be building all of this despite there being no need for it or if you take on more government debt to pay for the maintenance cost year after year. (Running a deficit on maintenance cost for a few years during bad economy can be less bad than raising taxes as long as it's temporary).

  • Let's say 1/20 believable conspiracy theories are true. If I disbelieve all of them I'll be 19/20 = 95% correct.

    If I believe in one of them there is a 1/20 chance I'll pick the right one and be 100% correct and 19/20 chance I'll pick the wrong one and have two incorrect beliefs (one false positive and one false negative). 1/20100+19/2090 = 90.5% correct.

    Feel free to correct my not even a napkin math. Or challenge the assumption that only 1/20 believable conspiracy theories are true. Or just agree and outsource the effort of thinking to someone trying to compensate lack of sleep with egregious amounts of caffeine.

  • I fear it's a necessary to spend money to ensure German and by extent European independence from China should they decide to increase the pressure on Taiwan.

    We have to spend money to get the expertise and the tooling up and running. Preferably yesterday. How do you propose we do it quicker or cheaper?
