I’d have an example: https://www.domesticshelters.org/articles/in-the-news/streamer-amouranth-s-husband-forced-her-to-create-content

5G is fine when comparing with 4G. Just a step up. My issue with them is rather whatever is going on with VoLTE and VoNR. 2G/3G just worked for phone calls, but now you only get that guaranteed by purchasing a phone directly from the carrier. Hell, some carriers even blacklist or whitelist devices just because.
And in Australia phones are now getting blocked completely, even if they worked with VoLTE because the carrier decided they didn’t.. Hugh Jeffrey also made a video about that.

This was the reason I stopped consuming it. I am not against porn, I like it, but verifying it is basically impossible. The issues usually boil down to money, same as usual.
Could be someone being forced by an individual.
Could be someone being forced by society (sex work as only way to afford college/healthcare/feeding a kid etc. even though the person feels being destroyed by it).
Could be private recordings posted as revenge.
You can’t really know.
Of course that’s a problem with other professions too, but all that can be done under capitalism is harm reduction. Similar to not buying from Nestle.

I just tried to think of what I can get absolutely ethically. Nothing. Even when thinking of vegetables directly from a farmer, dig in, and pesticides. How do they affect the environment, how were they produced, what happens to packaging. Nothing is 100% ethical. All I can do is try to avoid the worst or unnecessary.

Me :3

I achieve the same by disabling VoLTE and VoWiFi and setting the phone to LTE only in *#*#4636#*#*.

I love these service menus. *#*#3646633#*#* has so much stuff to permanently screw up on some MediaTeks. But also some useful ones like selection of frequency bands, or even specific frequency and cell id.
But yeah, some settings can persist factory reset, and some may even be illegal like Tx tests (verified that it does transmit garbage on selected frequency with SDR) or IMEI change. Not all settings are on all devices, and they may even be partially broken.

But yeah, these settings are don’t touch it for the most part (some are just huge lists of undocumented variables). Some don’t even seem to be resettable from the menu, I mean menus where you select one option, but by default they are unset. And the band mode selection on Moto G54 5G was… interesting. Rather than a nice selection menu, you can type in a number and select to add or remove it from a vector variable for 4G and 5G. Of course, nowhere does it list valid options or give a reset button.

And lastly a thing that serves me as a warning for future, when I was playing around with a leaked service program for some Realtek Ethernet adapter, I found out what eFuse memory is. There is no going back.

but I would never use public transport even if we had it.

Why is that?

2 and 3 check out with me, but 1st point is public transport only. Preferably trains + trams.
Although buses have the advantage that I can sit in the front where I can see the road, and they also tend to be less illuminated so I can see outside at night.
I wish there were dark carriages. Coach buses will have a few blue LEDs near the floor, but a train has to come with full sun worth of light.

From a deal on racknerdtracker.com (so RackNerd as the name suggests).
But their panel is a bit limited. If you want a custom OS that isn’t provided, you have to open a ticket with them to get an ISO mounted. You can also boot into recovery environment, but that is outdated minimal installation of Debian 9 without working APT. I was still able to use it to install Arch Linux from bootstrap image though. I just had to decompress it on my PC, create a temporary partition for it and scp it over.

And I am again mentioning Arch. It comes naturally.

I didn’t notice, and I don’t tend to talk to people, so no idea.
The person next to me didn’t use 2FA, that’s all I know.

?

I like the ideas here, so much so that I feel bad for giving you a disappointing answer: exam.

No own electronic devices in the exam room. That included everything, phones, watches, calculators and they also specifically mentioned “hearing aid” while giving out all instructions verbally.
Perhaps if there was someone it applied to they wouldn’t but…
And I had to log into our system to take it, which uses TOTP 2FA. An odd situation. Since the only other thing from clothes being allowed was a pen and paper with password (if needed), here we are.

But one real world example I heard from someone is no unapproved devices being brought into the server room.

Sorry, nothing interesting going on in here.

https://racknerdtracker.com/ keeps all the deals that don’t expire.

Not at all. And that’s without whois privacy.
.com .net .org .us .me are $24.95/year
.meme is $24.99/year
.io is whopping $69.00/year

I wasn’t allowed to bring in my phone, which has the authenticator app. And I had to log in on a provided device. And I use 2FA.

The guy didn’t even seem surprised when I asked him for current time to look up the current code, so probably this indeed was within the expectations.
“You can have the password printed out” - part of the instructions

Oh, how could I forget that. My bank uses them. But it also needs my (physical) debit card and its PIN.
Bit cumbersome to use.

Brute-forcing would take some bit of time. If the 6 digit code, 3 combinations of which are likely valid at a time becomes your only factor, you’ve already lost. Long randomly generated combinations are unrealistic to brute-force. For now at least.

And here’s a screenshot from when I brute-forced the 2FA to my Lemmy account because I trusted the wrong app (Cisco Duo and its backups without version control wiping everything after turning on older device):
6 digits isn’t much.

Also I hate how it’s implemented everywhere. We figured out that telling someone whether the password or username is incorrect is a bad thing, so now we do “username or password incorrect”. But what about 2FA? Username is easy to get if targeting a specific person.
If you can get to 2FA, you know the password was correct. That’s the case basically everywhere. Then it’s just 6 digits to guess. And typically you also only get notified about logins when successful. Too late at that point.
My wish would be to take both password and 2FA code at once, and just return “password or 2FA invalid” if one or both of them are wrong.

Whether yes or no I can’t answer, which is what people seem to be discussing. Also “hormone blockers” probably doesn’t sound that scary (at least it seems that’s what they do anyway).

Anyway, this is just sex part. Do you feel like telling your parents “I will not be having sex”? Someone you should consult it with is a medical professional, but parents just if you feel like it makes sense. I don’t know how open you are with them.

I don’t follow what you’re trying to say here. (The last 2 sentences contradict in my mind)

Anyway, phone vs this tomfoolery, it might not be more/less secure, just different.
What’s on paper is all there will be, as it doesn’t include the secret for generating additional codes.
Phone has that, but also has a screen lock. Whether that is easy to bypass will depend on environment, but after the first unlock, it is at least realistic.
Plus you have people like my father who go by “no lock, nothing to hide”.

For immediate exploit, paper looses.
For later persistent exploitation, phone looses.

Also, no one’s going to have endless scrolls of codes like this. 2 pages for less than 4 hours. Round that up to 2 hours per page, that would be 12 pages per day, 360 pages per month, 4,380 pages per year.
I had to do this, because it was a requirement (they even recommended to print out the password). Actually, they didn’t mention 2FA, just to print out the password (and no use of personal devices). This is the best I could do given the environment.
