a microphone is cheap. you don’t need a battery if you can plug it in somewhere, be it a real power source, or a usb port or display output on something else.


Yes the store has business trying to know the buy habits of its customers so they can better advertise.
they don’t need person specific data for that, just aggregates. that would be normal. this is not normal.
this is not about flyers and paper ads, but permanent data collection for building a personal profile about every customer sharing their info without giving it a second thought.


I would be looking at what tools opnsense provides. opnsense is a firewall operating system, its most effective to put it between your appliances and the internet. but some if its tools could also be used standalone


This is the 2nd and last time I will ever recommend Anubis anywhere at work to deal with bots because of how unprofessional, un-serious and weird others perceive it.
tell them its professional enough for kernel.org, qemu.org, the freedesktop gitlab server and several other serious software projects.
but I understand it. I just find tye priorities funny.
what kind of company is this? do you believe your work benefits the public? if yes, have a look at gandalf from nerdvpn, but I guess they’ll laugh just the same. if no, you are better off not recommending them effective bot blockers.


You will need to set it up in person, because the install is too complicated for non-technical person.
but also because whatever you search for in the play store, you are lucky if the first result with big font and icon is not malware but just a competitor to what you actually wanted. and guess what will people install. outrageous.
also afaik rustdesk had an abuse problem and now you can only connect aftet a bigtech login… or with a custom server.


Literally the shutdown menu being replaced by that shitty ai menu on android. and no manufacturer can object to it cause its a google requirement for being allowed to ship the play store…


the store is collecting personal data for marketing, and likely to share itbwith “business partners” along with the list of items you bought. that’s the big deal. the shop has no business about any of that.


ddg still has results for their site, maybe they just took it down recently


The chances of all sessions logging out at the same time would be extremely low.
not all devices, but multiple of them did log out roughly the same time. so, don’t rely on storing the 2FA authenticator app’s password in it.


it happens to me once or twice a year, and to people for whom I have installed bitwarden too. official clients, bitwarden.com server.


the physical button on the visor is much easier to press than unlocking your phone, finding the app, finding the right page, clicking the button, and checking if you pressed at the right place because it’s not tactile. you press the normal button out of reflex and you immediately know it worked.
if you want to automate by that, do a trigger by door opening and time of day or whatever
which is false, but more importantly the tools are entirely different. you can’t do the same thing, you have to find the “gimp way” of achieving the same result
compatibility with a standard does not mean much if nobody implements the standard


I would almost suggest some kind of system where you could set aside a certain amount of money, and it would donate automatically to all your installed packages, with some kind of weighting system I suppose.
that could be a new feature in liberapay or opencollective


Let’s normalize shaming and shunning individuals, like geneva_convenience in this example, over ridiculing an entire community.
and they will just nake a new account when they realize people are blocking them.
Communities are not monolithic.
Communities have moderation policies, and they have the power to discourage such behavior. if a community does not act against it, they are accepting it.


well, lemmy.ml has a significant userbase acting as “tankies”, and in turn other instances are overly suspicious of anyone from ml, but I can’t blame them for that. the “tankies” they speak about just make new accounts when they find out people started blocking them. It’s such a shame that new users mostly end up on ml. the devs are enjoying that they can use it to spread their politics, and make controversy in the fediverse.


this year there were 2 separate updates to bitwarden clients that fucked up vaultwarden servers, because the bitwarden developers “accidentally” reused a variable name in the data that was unused for a few years. but vaultwarden forgot to remove it, and now it is used in a different way, and the clients bugged away so hard that you had to uninstall them, because even if you was fortunate to be able to get to your passwords list you could not get it to sync otherwise
yet somehow paper ads in your postbox bother you. weird.
