  • You probably can't trust your password manager if it's compromised

  • I don't think it should be disappointing. Bitwarden welcomes third party security testing, especially given it is open source. The tests done were just tests, and the issues were already fixed.

  • People with the gene that makes cilantro taste like soap: What do you mean by "Cilantro tastes like soap"? In what way does anything taste like soap?

  • Nobody should be forced to eat cilantro

  • I don't work for a school, but I apply default policies to stop tracking/telemetry on all the company computers. I wasn't asked to, nor do my coworkers seem to care nearly as much. So the answer is probably that it will entirely depend on the IT admin they hired and how much they care

  • What do y’all think about Cloudflare?

    Jump

  • This image is inaccurate, because it suggests Cloudflare is a small block. The original xkcd makes more sense, because it is a project run by a single person. To represent Cloudflare, it should be a huge block given it's a very large company with a market cap of $69 billion.

  • What's stopping youtube from just going full authoritarian and mandate DRM for all their videos in attempt to prevent people from downloading it or block ads?

  • From a quick google search, seems like you can disable hardware acceleration to record with OBS. Or you can use other dedicated software. And thats not even covering the bypasses that can likely be done on Linux

  • This is different, and doesn't address screen recording.

    HDCP uses three systems:[5]

    1. Authentication prevents non-licensed devices from receiving content.
    2. Encryption of the data sent over DisplayPort, DVI, HDMI, GVIF, or UDI interfaces prevents eavesdropping of information and man-in-the-middle attacks.
    3. Key revocation prevents devices that have been compromised and cloned from receiving data.

    It would stop someone from playing DRM content to an unauthorized TV, but does not mention anything about screen recording your own device. There are some built in protections for preventing an application from being recorded but I have no doubt there are bypasses

  • Ars Technica makes up quotes from Matplotlib maintainer("An AI Agent Published a Hit Piece on Me"); pulls story

  • Anyone that buys a news agency wants to maintain/increase click through and retention. They are going to continue to cater to their demographic, no matter who buys them. Billionaires literally care about one thing. They don't care what the news site is saying as long as it keeps people reading and coming back. They would tank the entire company if they tried to convert it to right leaning media.

    They are going to make right leaning media to get click from the right, and left leaning media for the left. They are not going to leave a dollar on the table. If you can find a right biased article from CNN, please do share.

  • CNN is a left biased outlet. That's not controversial to say.

  • As a private person doing nothing illegal, is there value to having a VPN?

    Jump

  • Would you be fine with a corporation/government putting a camera in everyones house? It's fine, since you're not doing anything illegal, so there is really no problem. And think of how many crimes could be stopped. VPN is more about privacy than getting away with anything illegal. ISP's collect all users browsing data and sells it off to the highest bidder. They sit between you and the services you want, so they see it all. With a VPN they know how much traffic there is, but they just know it is going through a VPN and nothing more

  • Hey, guys. Is it a good idea to dunk PC parts in isopropyl alcohol?

    Jump

  • I want to clean my PC thoroughly to buy it a few more years.

    You can buy yourself and your electronics a lot of years by cutting the smoking :)

    Technically you could submerge parts in isopropyl alcohol. The concern with liquid is primarily corrosion and causing shortages. If there is no stored electricity in the capacitors, the isopropyl alcohol shouldn't cause any corrosion. It would not be the best way to clean it, in reality, but you could probably do it. I would just spray some on and gently clean it with an old toothbrush.

    Smoke, especially cigarette smoke, gets onto everything and is awful to try and clean. I won't buy used electronics used in a smokers home, or much of anything for that matter.
