I skip it because I’d rather leave an hour earlier.

No, but it is something I’ve heard actual shit-infested milk drinkers say to defend their practice.

Nah, it’s that saying things that actual morons think isn’t funny. It used to be funny when it was considered so ridiculous that no one would realistically believe it, but we don’t live in those times any more.

Don’t forget CRISPR-Cas9 allowing reliable and precise gene editing in living organisms.

It still amazes me they took the worst feature from Humankind and somehow made it worse.

I get it, but scientists don’t come up with common names. The name scientists came up with for them is Opiliones.

$229? Fuck me, you’re not kidding. That’s over half way to owning a Steam deck.

Wait 3 weeks before applying updates and let other people be the guinea pigs. It’s usually enough time for things like this to be caught and withdrawn by MS.

That or Google “<model> service manual”

Older devices also stored fewer bits per well. It’s much easier for the data to get corrupted when the difference in voltage between two values is smaller.

The total eclipse. I was lucky enough to live in the path of last year’s. I now understand why people are willing to travel across the world just to experience something that only lasts a few minutes.

And China is by far the biggest source of it.

Apple’s entire software design philosophy is god-awful. There’s only one way to do things and if you don’t like “The Apple Way”, fuck you. “It just works” only works for very basic normie stuff. If you try to do anything advanced, it most likely won’t work and it’ll give zero feedback as to why.

That only applies to shut down. Restart will always do a proper reboot.

Lemmy has 100k users and, more importantly, almost zero countermeasures against botting and influence ops. It would not be some huge undertaking to target this place.

Azure is a very close second behind AWS and has nearly twice the market share of GCP in 3rd place.

Modern facial recognition cameras project a grid of infrared dots on your face and use the distortion of them to sense the depth and contours of your face. You’d have to 3d print a head to defeat it.

That said, Reddit is probably doing the bare minimum to comply with the law and will probably just use an uploaded 2d image.

They can force you to use your phone’s camera. Due to faceID, modern phones have fairly sophisticated cameras that can tell the difference between a static image and a 3d physical face.

It’ll almost certainly be an AI model doing it.

When a remote code execution exploit is run, you often have a very limited payload you can deliver. Usually that means delivering a small downloader that then downloads and installs a backdoor from somewhere on the Internet

The standard counter-measure to protect your servers is to block all outbound traffic unless it’s to a known safe destination. Downloading the secondary payload over DNS gets around that since you can’t just block DNS. Tools to protect against this or DNS tunneling are still relatively new, so a lot of people haven’t implemented them yet.
