I was feeling smug that being on LineageOS and now GrapheneOS for almost a decade I've never seen this.
..then I remembered my fucking iMac seemed to turn on iCloud photo backup last week after updating and next thing I know all the obsolete iPads I get from work are telling me how my iCloud storage is full
Seriously this iCloud shit is on by default, predatory ass tech companies. I'm pretty sure I disabled it on that iMac but it's so possible that my own device can gaslight me that I'm left unsure. It's off now and I spent an afternoon removing all those photos.
Just my 2c while taking a shit, I think if the bot just printed the direct name of the news source ("Sky News Australia", "CNN", " The Guardian") and additionally said "This is the automatically detected source of this news. Please consider replying to this comment with a better source if you think one exists"
It makes it clear there's zero bias and encourages conversation with other users here. It also is a reminder in case you might be skimming past and miss the domain it's from, and you personally can judge "Oh, that's what I think is a reputable source", "Oh, it's those wankers, this is garbage" or "I haven't heard of that source before, I'll be skeptical" as some examples
I just double checked and I have TOTP enabled for my PayPal account so it should be an option.
I just found this support article of theirs and it says it can only be enabled through their website and not through the app (why?!) so you might be running into that?
I ran into the same issue, I didn't want to use a cloud password manager because entrusting literally every password I have to a third party and on the internet sounds absurd to me. KeePass seemed like a good idea for me, but at the time I fell back to syncing the vault by sending it to myself in Telegram any time I made a change. Certainly not ideal
I now just have an RPi self hosting Vaultwarden with Tailscale, and for me that's been the best solution that keeps me happy; it's more secure as someone needs to compromise my Tailnet first, it's not public facing, I'm not trusting a third party to not lose my vault (a la LastPass), but its still convenient.
There's two reasons I tend to use the software button. I know for a fact that clicking "Shut Down" will actually shut down the computer. If I press the hardware button, the computer usually is configured by default to sleep. Yes, I could change this default behaviour on all the devices I use, but then there's the second reason:
From a psychological perspective, I tend to associate the hardware button as a "only use if system is locked up" button.
I feel it's worth mentioning the application of them also factors into their longevity.
Good quality SD card holding some documents and random files? Yeah probably 10+ years. Good quality SD card being used in a dashcam, constant writes? I'm replacing my good SD card after about ~2 years of service because its showing signs of failure.
Sit back, relax, we're taking the wheel here to once again shove our subscription products down your esophagus. Would you be so inclined as to now use New Outlook, OneDrive, Microsoft Office, Telemetry (just kidding, we make it mandatory and give you the illusion of choice), Edge and our sponsors Candy Crush? We thought you would, so we've set these as your default apps. For instance, we have decided for you that Edge was what you actually needed instead of LibreWolf, which cane from an unknown source.
Thanks again, we will come again in next month's update!
