  • Home owners of Lemmy do you have any advice on dealing with the stress of owning a home?

    Jump

  • This is absolutely normal when you first buy the place. I bought my place in 2017 and was super anxious over the first year because I suddenly had basically no savings and all my equity was in this building. I didn't know anything about home repair and couldn't afford to hire someone who did.

    The thought of something going wrong enough that it would ruin the place gave me an anxiety attack more than once.

    Then, after a couple years and a few things needing fixed, I realized that things don't go wrong that often and most of the time if they do, they are easy to fix.

  • The ESP32 "backdoor" that wasn't | Dark Mentor LLC

  • I mean, this doesn't really change anything from a practical perspective. It just highlights that the verbage in the press release was alarmist.

    It's still a security concern that most users will be unaware of.

  • How do you think smartphone manufacturers will comply with EU's replaceable battery regulation?

  • Things get a little nebulous when you're talking about microcode running on a proprietary IC.

  • Poor guy

    Jump

  • No, you don't understand. He's rich and white, so he shouldn't be subject to those pesky regulations.

    That's how it works in the US, so obviously that's how it should work in South Africa too.

  • Micron just demoed the world's fastest SSD with PCIe 6.x tech, a sequential read speed of 27GB/s, and yes, it's just a prototype for now

  • When do we start needing active coolers for our drives?

  • You can get spinning rust all the way up to 32 TB in a single 3.5" disk and 8 TB in an NVMe drive. The tech is out there, but it takes time for the price of stuff like that to come down when there isnt much demand for it.

  • Just give an extended lecture in excruciating detail about the consistency and regularity of your shit being improved after taking them, and hope she takes the hint to not ask you about things related to your butthole anymore

  • Ransomware criminals love CISA's KEV list – and that's a bug, not a feature

    Jump

  • This isn't really a surprise considering how the system was supposed to work.

    The idea is that network administrators would also be aware of any CVEs for their products that are actively being exploited in the wild, and patching their systems accordingly. The netsec community is one about sharing information. If this list did not exist, then those vulnerabilities would mostly only be shared by the attackers in back channels, making the admins even less equipped to deal with an attack.

    If you are responsible for patching internet-exposed services then it behooves you to keep an eye on lists like this. If you can't keep up with that, then don't expose those services publicly.

  • I mean, if the position of the country can change to such an insane degree by the results of a single election cycle then a lot of that goodwill that was given prior, should be examined.

    Why do people see me as far older than 19 when I type the way I do sometimes?/Why do people think full stops are rude?

    Jump

  • Kind of. There is one punctuation tell that you can typically use to tell if someone is older, and thats if they use ellipsis to separate thoughts rather than line breaks in informal settings.

    Back in the day when you were writing on paper, space was a limited resource, so people that are more used to that will separate ideas with a '...' rather than starting a new paragraph because you can fit more text into a smaller footprint.

    Come the turn of the millennium, digital writing became the norm and people that grew up surrounded by computers tend to use line breaks instead because space is not limited in the same way anymore.

  • Do most people still use computers, or do people only use a smartphone as their main/only device?

    Jump

  • My experience has been that most people only use a computer at work and use their phone or a smart TV for everything else. Although, they usually also own a laptop for when a computer is required

  • Has America Reached Its Tipping Point with Ignorance?

    Jump

  • I think it's a bit more hopeful than that(America is still fucked short term, but humanity might be better off long term). Throughout history, people have been misinformed idiots that don't think critically. It's just that prior to about 2008, people didn't really have access to the deluge of information that is social media and we're still trying to figure that out.

    The reason misinformation on social media works so well is that people want to learn things, and if someone tells them a believable enough lie, they'll take that as fact doing only minimal checks(eg: my friend whom I trust shared this article saying that it's the Mexican's fault I see so many homeless people, so it must be true).

    Stuff like this has happened throughout history. People published absolutely insane things in books and presented them as fact for hundreds of years, and it set back things like science and medicine for equivalently long, as people didn't fact check things then either.

    The fact that people are already hammering on about trying to fact check social media means that people are educated enough now to start, and we as a species just need another small push in that direction

  • When software devs expect you to pipe a script straight from the internet into Bash...

    Jump

  • It's bad practice to do it, but it makes it especially easy for end users who already trust both the source and the script.

    On the flip side, you can also just download the script from the site without piping it directly to bash if you want to review what it's going to do before you run it.

  • Confusing warning

    Jump

  • I honestly prefer Valve's method. You as a consumer should be reading what you're buying before you purchase anyway, and you can still use their refund system if you somehow missed the warning.

    Removing unfinished games from the storefront just increases the amount of lost media out there. These projects should be available for as long as possible simply for archival reasons.

  • Got these (notes) provided by my school..

    Jump

  • My so-called introverted friends never want to go out clubbing on a Tuesday night because they only worry about the future like "Oh, if I go out with you tonight, then I'll be a zombie at work tomorrow". Like, live in the now and care about other people, like me!

  • My employer blocking trusted adblock extensions but allowing ad blockers that whitelist corporate ads

    Jump

  • As a corporate IT drone, usually the extension blocks come from on high and we have no say in what they are. Also, the users that are smart enough to figure out ways around the blocks are not who we are worried about protecting from themselves.
