cooopsspace,

What are you gonna do? Insurrect the state next?

cooopsspace,

You’re right

And you know how they explained time travel not making sense in Doctor Who? They called it “wibbly wobbly, timey wimey stuff” and hand waved all that shit away.

cooopsspace,

Upvote things you agree with, upvote well articulated but controversial opinions.

cooopsspace,

Because when I’m looking for where all my RAM went and realise I’m running 7 instances of Chrome browser for no reason. Meanwhile an actual instance of Chrome with ~20 tabs is still a single instance, but with multiple threads.

cooopsspace,

My side is that many great doctors are autistic, therefore autism causes vaccines.

How to intentionally get terminated from a job without sacrificing unemployment benefits?

My friend is a customer service rep who is ready to retire. Her company is talking about layoffs with 13+ weeks of severance, but when she asked (anonymously) if they were accepting volunteers, they said no. In case she’s not one of the ones told to clean out her desk, what are the ways she could get terminated while...

cooopsspace,

It’s not in Australia either but it definitely happens. Seen it personally. Nobody will become a union representative if they’ve seen the last 3 not have their contract renewed for unknown reasons.

cooopsspace,

Never meet you heroes

cooopsspace,

Just fucking sell me one in Australia please.

cooopsspace,

I mean we have toasters like this in Australia for like $10 with the same cable management design. Seems pretty standard to me.

cooopsspace,

Given the vast array of existing pitfalls in AI, not to mention the outright biases and absence of facts - AI psychology would be deeply flawed and would more likely kill people.

Person: I’m having unaliving thoughts, I feel like it’s the only thing I can do

AI: Ok do it then

That alone is why it’ll never happen.

Also we need to sort out how to house, heal and feed our people before we start going and replacing masses of workforce.

cooopsspace,

IT person here, Firefox works fine for everything that matters.

cooopsspace,

In Australia we have preferential voting.

Unlike the US you can actually vote for an independent of green candidate without it being a throwaway vote.

When the time comes your independent doesn’t have a chance of getting in - they still get funding, but your second third and fourth preferences get taken into account and lesser monies paid out accordingly.

Like, can you imagine being able to vote Bernie without it being a total throwaway?

This is how all voting should work.

Feedback on CalyxOS

UPDATEThank you for your feedback! Based on what you all provided, I’m going to postpone installing any de-Googled Android OS for the time. It seems there’s still a lot that needs to be worked on in terms of device and application support, and I don’t have the time to work out the kinks and issues that might show up here...

cooopsspace,

The other issue with Calyx is that MicroG has had an open bug report for years that when a Google Work account checks for a passcode lock it can’t. Thus you can’t use Google Work addresses on your phone.

I get that you shouldn’t be using google at all, but I have a job and need money. I don’t have the ability to not use work Gmail.

cooopsspace,

Encryption + POP should be part of every privacy conscious person’s repertoire.

cooopsspace,

There is no steam deck 2 planned for years according to Valve.

cooopsspace,
  1. Password manager such as Bitwarden, generate long strong passwords for everything.
    1a. Corpo SSO (By which I mean “log in with Google/Microsoft/Apple/Whatever”) nothing.
  2. Hardware keys, MFA on anything that doesn’t support one.
  3. Degoogle, de-megacorp.
  4. Use Linux, stop the Stockholm syndrome that is Windows.

VPN shouldn’t even be in the top 10. The benefits are dubious at best and the jury is still out on whether it makes you more of a target or if you can trust ANY provider meaningfully.

cooopsspace,

Australia, when?

cooopsspace,

Nobody should be letting a closed source black box run on their kernel, especially not from Epic Games (a CCP company).

cooopsspace,

Hardware keys for everything. Bitwarden for the rest.

cooopsspace,

Doesn’t exist.

Just switch to Pixelfed.

Good friends will talk to you elsewhere like Telegram or Signal.

cooopsspace,

Never had a spam message

cooopsspace,

And an ad blocker should be part of everyone’s personal and organisational security model regardless, so you’d have to install ublock and specifically turn it off for YouTube.

But of course, the reason people block ads is most of the Google ads were straight malware at one point.

cooopsspace,

Multi factor authentication is about having multiple factors for authenticating you:

Something you know (like a password) Something you have (with you - a hardware key, smart card or token) Something you are (biometrics, fingerprint, faceid)

So the idea is that you’ll have two points of identification.

But if you have your TOTP token and your generated password in the same password manager - that’s effectively only one factor of authentication.

If you’ve gotten this far you should probably consider a WebAuthn key like the Ubikey to be the “something you have”.

cooopsspace,

Actually I’d prefer a petition for Microsoft to drop Windows support entirely.

cooopsspace,

Stupid people smoke

cooopsspace,

And you can’t remediate the issue because consoles aren’t upgradable. And then the question is - why did they sell the game on console in the first place?

cooopsspace,

Taylor has better legs

cooopsspace,

Yeah and imagine if Google decided they don’t like your small business and ruins your livelihood overnight.

In no time you’ll lose your house to a bank, all because a company that you have little association with chose to.

cooopsspace,

Doom guy

cooopsspace,

Not even top 10

cooopsspace,

Read the other comments. Mine was “doom guy”.

cooopsspace,

Don’t

cooopsspace,

Just run your own Jellyfin

cooopsspace,

Also I don’t know about you, but my countries recycling relied on sending it all to China to burn.

dustsv hands yep my work here is done

Recycling is a lie to keep making plastic, nothing more

cooopsspace,

Wow you’re right. You are a stingy bastard.

Never run anything on a free tier if you want to keep it. My legit Oracle account got flagged and deleted for no reason so they’re dead to me, and I’ll tell anyone who will listen. They’re thieving assholes and will snatch away free tier the moment it’s convenient for them.

Do you really need netbird? What for?

Spend some money, consider it the cost of education

cooopsspace,

I use Vultr and OVH.

cooopsspace,

Linux

Seriously, if you care about foss - fuck windows off.

cooopsspace,

Ok that’s fucking stupid.

cooopsspace,

I’m running a Google Pixel + a popular open source android ROM. No Google.

When will I change my phone? When my Pixel dies and I buy another pixel to install an open source android ROM without Google.

cooopsspace,

I run Calyx and everything works for me except for Google pay. Google’s device validation is required for that, and since Google can’t separate the spying from security it’s a no go.

My bank and Google maps works even. In fact you can download any app from Google Play itself via Aurora store.

cooopsspace,

Somes gonna get the little nanites squirted into them, but not the robot.

cooopsspace,

You’re absolutely not to run them without a VPN or other authentication portal in front of them.

cooopsspace,

I’m not the person to answer the quesrion, I’m advocating for hot opening it up to the internet.

cooopsspace,

What URLs I load and choose not to load should always be my absolute whole discretion. And yes I can pick and choose not to load a whole website.

But don’t use Adblock Plus, use uBlock. Being the gatekeeper of ads to extort money out of advertisers is still a dick move and a middleman that doesn’t need to exist.

What is the attraction to kids?

There has been a ton of CSAM and CP arrests in the US lately, especially from cops and teachers, along with at least one female teacher seducing boys as young as 12. I cannot understand the attraction to kids. Even teens. Do these people think they are having a relationship, or it is somehow okay to take away another human...

cooopsspace, (edited )

At the end of the day, art is just pixels on a flat surface. Determining whether a depicted individual is under age where it’s not obvious sets a dangerous precedent. Is the picture 17 or 18? Who knows.

But the problem is that people have been sexualising people like Emma Watson since she first appeared on screen. That’s not okay and rather than sending AI art underground I think society needs to change to normalise education about sex, reproduction and genitalia and address the social issues to treat pedophilia like the disease that it is.

Meanwhile pedophile names are being written about publicly, risking mob violence and further isolation. Not to mention in the US theres a lot of negative attention being put on women’s reproduction, childrens sex ed and genitalia and a push to make the whole lot illegal and taboo. Not to mention people teaching their kids pet names for their parts, “uncle Ben touched my heehaw” sounds a lot different to “uncle Ben touched my penis”.

Society is a problem, the US particularly is going in the wrong direction on many aspects of sex education.

cooopsspace,

Corsair?

What are you supposed to do if you download the wrong torrent?

A few days ago I download a movie but the movie was in another language and I’m definitely not going to watch it because of that, I still completed the 1:1 ratio because at the end of the day I downloaded the file and used other people’s bandwidth, but what is one supposed to do in this situation?...

cooopsspace,

Change your downloader to freeleech only and continue downloading.

Also helps if you pick up something like large freeleech ROM or movie packs.

cooopsspace,

Torrentleech is, IPT is great
