I haven’t heard of tizentube and tizenbrew yet. Thanks! For the longest time I thought Tizen didn’t really have any modding options.

Did Sherpas develop a defense against this? Or are they more susceptible because of their exposure to higher altitudes?

I’m curious, which prog artists do you find on Qobuz that aren’t anywhere else?

Walk without rhythm.

My 12 Pro Max is happily chugging along. I’ll only upgrade when it literally dies or security updates stop.

I think you need to step back and review your threat model. Grab a pen and paper or open a spreadsheet. List all the tech you use for various things. Then determine what threats you are protecting yourself from for each. Try to use a scoring system to rank importance/criticality and convenience. Then try to find the balance, which ones you’re willing to sacrifice convenience for and ones you are willing to compromise. Then take action one by one.

Well privacy doesn’t necessarily mean anonymity. They are different things and have different solutions. A VPN gives you privacy but doesn’t automatically make you anonymous. I think the other comment has a good point that VPNs are overselling their products. And it’s true, defense-in-depth is the proper way to go about it, and not to rely on one thing to solve all your problems.

I’ve had no issues so far. Response times have been relatively quick, nothing unusual.

Email + calendar, slack, security camera alerts, and a couple of messenger apps.

Because everyone else they know is there. If the people they follow and interact with moved to Mastodon or switched messengers to Signal, you’ll see how quickly they will move. It’s hard to convince someone to sign up or install a new app if it’s only you they’ll find there. I was able to switch my family over to Signal and they literally use it only for family group chats, because they don’t know anyone else who uses it. And they were a little easier to convince because they’re family. I won’t be able to convince people with less close ties to me like friends, acquaintances, and neighbors.

Aww, there’s no info in the article how he managed to get to Wales and live there undetected for decades.

This is my thought as well. Farms are just picking the sweetest ones and breeding those because they get better “yields” in terms of selling their fruit.

Can someone ELI5 where the line is drawn between “alive” and “not alive” self-replicating things?

They had fun writing this article:

allow an attacker to get a corporate email account with which to conduct a little filet-o-phishing

with no server-side checking, allowing a Hamburglar to order food for free

eventually got through to a security McEngineer who said that they were “too busy” to fix the flaw

Coincidentally, I saw on linkedin last night they were hiring a Security Operations manager. They should get an Appsec person instead to fix those issues.

Up until my mid-twenties, yes. Lived in a tropical country and no A/C, just fans. I only started using a blanket when I finally lived in a place with A/C.

You won’t get anywhere if you use the “leave your bathroom door open” or “unlock your phone and give it to me” arguments, because to them that is a different thing and they pretty much know what it means to have privacy on those aspects. What they don’t care about are the things they don’t see (i.e. social media tracking, location data access, etc.) and that’s what they consider nothing-to-hide-nothing-to-fear.

So the best examples I could think of to counter those arguments are:

• Surveillance pricing
• Abysmal security of home security cameras

If they DO care that prices on the stuff they buy is influenced based on their habits and the data companies collect on them, or if they DO care that anyone can potentially tap into their home cameras to watch even just their outdoor cameras (let alone indoor ones), then they DO care about privacy and just don’t realize it.

That’s really dependent on how your work manages user workstations. If your employer is big enough to have managed endpoints, you’ll need to convince your IT department, not just your boss. They’ll have to be able to officially support it (compatibility, updates, security, legal, etc.) and that also requires approval from higher ups.

Similar to the blood-brain barrier, we have a kitchen-bathroom barrier policy. Tools for each space should never cross, even cleaning tools. So even brushes for the sinks are separate.

Wait really? I used to work at a place where we cleared out HDDs with a degausser. I’m pretty sure that thing wasn’t as strong as a car junkyard magnet.

I dunno man, Depp seems like he would stink and have bad breath.
