    Hackers Say They Have Personal Data of Thousands of NSA and Other Government Officials

    Jump

  • It's just their way of stirring up an auction on the underground channels.

  • Have you ever used apple airtag thingy or Replicas?

    Jump

  • I'm in the Android ecosystem and I bought some compatible with the Google Find My network.

    I use them on my keys, inside my kids backpack (both in elementary school), one hidden inside my car, a spare that I put inside the bag I use that day when commuting (laptop bag, backpack, luggage) and another one attached to my dog's collar.

    The last one ended up being useful a couple of times, I couldn't find my dog in the house and he was sleeping under our bed, and another time he was sleeping on a white blanket the kids left bunched up on the floor and he was basically invisible on it (he's all white) 🤣

  • What technologies were ubiquitous ten years ago and are much less common now?

    Jump

  • Optical disks. It was almost a necessity on laptop to have an optical drive, now there's maybe one or two models out there that comes with one.

  • What do you still use reddit for?

    Jump

  • Some niche stuff that I can't find a sizeable community elsewhere, but that's about it.

  • Those monstrosities should be f*ing illegal

  • I just want a decently sized hatchback with a spacious trunk.

  • Google’s Requirement For All Android Developers To Register And Be Verified Threatens To Close Down Open Source App Store F-Droid

  • Google’s Requirement For All Android Developers To Register And Be Verified Threatens To Close Down Open Source App Store F-Droid

    Jump

  • Some of my favorite apps are on F-Droid and nowhere else.

    These apps are for the privacy-minded people, by privacy-minded people who will absolutely refuse to be tied by name (or digital signature with an identity verification process) to their apps.

    And then there's the problem of making legally gray apps (emulators), now someone needs to be tied to that app, which makes then easier to find, or if an app starts to irritate a government or corporation, then they can find who published it pretty easily (likely without proper the proper legal oversight/subpoena) even outside of the Play Store.

    What the fuck Google.

  • Still, most people will look at the TV during the meeting, so all you see is one side of their faces.

  • We tried the owls in some of our meeting rooms and we scrapped those.

    What's the point of having a 360 camera in the center of the room when everyone will stare at the big TV anyway? All the people at the other end see is everyone looking sideway to the camera.

  • Government workers say their out-of-office replies were forcibly changed to blame Democrats for shutdown

  • Classic GOP: thoughts & prayers with a serving of pain & suffering

  • Why is DRM music a thing?

    Jump

  • It's mostly to avoid a lossless capture, recording it will lead to quality loss.

    Most people don't care, so they'll download whatever they can.

  • Upgrading video quality for non-English content?

    Jump

  • Your best bet for quality dubbed content is to find the raw blu-ray torrent (check for the included audio tracks), and retranscode to x264, x265 or AV1 with Handbrake and the audio tracks you want to keep. No need to tinker with a/v sync from there.

    Entry-Level NAS recommendations?

    Jump

  • You either have

    • Easy to use
    • Will eventually lose support
    • May remain unpatched

    or

    • Require more maintenance
    • You can run the OS of your choice
    • It's your responsibility to ensure it remains patched

    I decided I wanted something long-term, and bought a NAS appliance I can boot my own OS onto it, so I went with the Ugreen DXP2800.

    I'm running Ubuntu LTS, with Cockpit as the webUI to manage parts of it, and my web services are all running through podman containers (aka quadlets).

    There's a bit of a learning curve, which is the price I was willing to accept.
