nooneescapesthelaw,

You’re getting downvoted because people don’t like the way the real world works.

if i make static qr codes, no one can redirect them later right?

ive just heard of an incident where students redirected their books codes to p**n. can i make sure that doesnt happen? also, im using google to generate them, is there a foss alternative as im scared of tracking. lastly, can i make the qr code redirect to a specific page of a pdf as i want people to be able to scan them and...

nooneescapesthelaw,

Not exactly, you can read piss shit fuck, however other words like maybe removed, removed, removed, removed may be censored

Edit: didn’t think this one through lmao

W hor e

Bi tch

G**k

nooneescapesthelaw,

That is bigoted thing to say

nooneescapesthelaw,

This one is different, Argentina image

nooneescapesthelaw,

This is a slightly different one

nooneescapesthelaw,

Other ones better

nooneescapesthelaw,

Argentina’s been gone for years

nooneescapesthelaw,

OP if you’re serious about this email me at [email protected]

nooneescapesthelaw,

I wish i could also move more people with me on the bicycle

It would also be great if there was some sort of heater/AC in it as well

Full text: bin Laden's 'letter to America' (deleted in The Guardian because of TikTok) (web.archive.org)

I just found out that Osama Bin Laden’s “Letter to America” has been doing its rounds on TikTok but I haven’t seen anything about it been posted here on Lemmy about it. Perhaps people already know about it, I’m not sure. This is a link to the wayback machine. The original in the guardian has just been deleted after...

What is the cambridge 6 affair

Americans of Lemmy, what is your approach to next year's election?

2020 was… truly unique. It was so hard to stay away from doom scrolling, and I (and many others) were pretty disillusioned by the sad fact that so much of our country legitimately supported the Orange Man. I didn’t get a wink of sleep the night of the election because I genuinely considered it to be a make or break decision...

nooneescapesthelaw,

Spoiled vote

nooneescapesthelaw,

It’s bread stapled to a tree

Could Lemmy be used as a classroom tool (like having a classroom's own instance)

I feel like it would be an interesting learning tool cuz I learn a ton on here and it gets me writing without anyone having to hold a gun to my head. I mean like even essay-length or at least essay-worthy treatments of things I respond to in longer-form, and even for the shorter-form stuff

nooneescapesthelaw,

Canvas

nooneescapesthelaw,

I have never heard of dis man

nooneescapesthelaw,

In this case the jpegs themselves change everytime you zoom in, so you zoom in a little it loads a new set of higher quality Jpegs.

Do you remember the tool you are talking about?

nooneescapesthelaw,

Holy shit dude you are awesome, thanks alot!

issues with QbitTorrent stalled torrents

I am just getting back my sea legs, but apparently they’re pretty shaky because I can’t get my ubuntu torrent (no seriously, it is) to download. It never starts downloading and is stuck in “stalled”. I’ve tried a number of things, but even with default settings it isn’t starting. I’m using proton VPN on Linux Mint,...

nooneescapesthelaw,

Op:

but even with the VPN disabled it doesn’t work.

Comments:

Have you tried changing your vpn???

nooneescapesthelaw,

Try torrenting on another device (like your phone) to see if the issue is your network. Also try a non qbittorent client

nooneescapesthelaw,

I think the author’s theory about the photo molecular effect are right!

Basically they say that the photons cleave water molecules from the surface of the hydrogels.

At first i was not convinced but then i read the abstract of the journal article (its not on scihub yet) and it changed my mind, the news article skipped over a few points:

www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2312751120?url_ver=…

nooneescapesthelaw,

This article skips over a few points, heres the paper:

www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2312751120?url_ver=…

So your idea seems plausible at first, but more information leads to the proposed photo molecular effect:

Illumination of hydrogel under solar or visible-spectrum light-emitting diode leads to evaporation rates exceeding the thermal evaporation limit, even in hydrogels without additional absorbers.

Also the absorption of both the water and gel are negligible

nooneescapesthelaw,

I think you might be underestimating these guys a little, however skepticism is a part of science.

Replication experiments are being done right now so we’ll see what happens, but I’m sure they have adjusted for that

nooneescapesthelaw,

The means of production are not entirely owned by a seperate class nor is the barrier to entry for many industries so high that it is entirely impossible for the average joe to enter.

Sure some industries are nigh impossible to get into, like pharmaceuticals for example, there are much bigger industries that have lower barriers like machine shops (which are really medium entry but you can scale them), and manufacturing via 3d print hubs.

Not to mention aoftware development which is a fucking wonder when it comes to potential money vs barrier to entry.

Certain construction contractors and engineering consulting firms can be opened up with fairly low barrier to entry.

I’m sleepy so my replies may not seem very coherent so tell me if you don’t understand what im saying

nooneescapesthelaw,

Ninja 400 for 6000 and that’s basically the honda civic of motorcycles. Very reliable even after being crashed multiple times

nooneescapesthelaw,

First season doesn’t have frank reynolds/danny devito so maybe that’s why

nooneescapesthelaw,

I mean… This is a known fact. This is what tipped these idiots off

nooneescapesthelaw,

Egypt already has syrian refugees and subsaharan refugees in addition to the recent influx because of the sudanese civil war.

Either way, the current regime violently overthrew, imprisoned, tortured and eventually killed the democratically elected previous regime which has ties and many many sympathizers in Gaza. Meaning that the cocksucking son of a removed sisi will never let them in, because he’s afraid of another revolution

Plus leaked talks from Mubarak (two egyptian presidents ago) literally have bibi pointing at gaza and saying i want to move them elsewhere and pointed at sinai. If Palestinians go to sinai they are never coming home.

Not to mention that ISIS is in sinai…

Is it illegal to con people into thinking you have a perfect ability to pick football games by emailing out two lists: one picking one team, and the other picking the other team, and only sending... (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

…the next pick to the people who saw you pick the “winner”. Now half of those people see one team, the other half see you pick the other team, and whoever saw you pick the winner thinks you’ve got a 100% accuracy rate over two games. You could do that for a while and then offer to sell your pick for the Superbowl....

nooneescapesthelaw,

Well it’s not mathematically possible

The formula is p/(2^n)

P would be the number of people you start with, and n is the number of games.

If you start with the population of the US, 350 million people, you can only do this for about 28 matches before you run out of people.

nooneescapesthelaw,

And there is nothing wrong with that, nor is there anything wrong in admitting your mistakes

nooneescapesthelaw,

Puerto ricans don’t want their number to come up

nooneescapesthelaw,

Yes but I don’t want to rewrite the kink for piped everytime someone links youtube

nooneescapesthelaw,

You mean like the trademark?

nooneescapesthelaw,

If 50 pounds or less of commercially manufactured black powder is being purchased, and the powder is intended to be used solely for sporting, recreational, or cultural purposes in antique firearms as defined in 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(16) or in antique devices exempt from the term “destructive device” in 18 U.S.C. 921(a)(4), no form is required. However, if the black powder is being purchased for any other purpose (regardless of quantity), the purchaser or other transferee must possess a federal explosives license or permit.

Whats the point of 3d printing it? Why not just give the goop

nooneescapesthelaw,

Its resin printed not sure if you can injection mold it

I’m done with paying for a virtual private network, a service that claims to protect your privacy when you’re connected to a public Wi-Fi network at the local coffee shop, the airport or a hotel.

For more than a decade, security experts have recommended using a VPN to shield your internet traffic from bad actors who are trying to snoop on you. But just as tech gadgets become outdated over time, so does some tech advice.

The reality is that web security has improved so much in the last few years that VPN services, which charge monthly subscription fees that cost as much as Netflix, offer superfluous protection for most people concerned about privacy, some security researchers said.

Many of the most popular VPN services are now also less trustworthy than in the past because they have been bought by larger companies with shady track records. That’s a deal-breaker when it comes to using a VPN service, which intercepts our internet traffic. If you can’t trust a product that claims to protect your privacy, what good is it?

“Trusting these people is really critical,” Matthew Green, a computer scientist who studies encryption, said about VPN providers. “There’s no good way to know what they’re doing with your data, which they have huge amounts of control over.”

I learned this the hard way. For several years, I subscribed to a popular VPN service called Private Internet Access. In 2019, I saw the news that the service had been acquired by Kape Technologies, a security firm in London. Kape was previously called Crossrider, a company that was named in a research paper by the University of California and Google as being part of an ecosystem of businesses using so-called ad injection technology that could behave maliciously. I immediately canceled my subscription.

In the last five years, Kape has also bought several other popular VPN services, including CyberGhost VPN, Zenmate and, just last month, ExpressVPN in a $936 million deal. This year, Kape additionally bought a group of VPN review sites that give top ratings to the VPN services it owns.

A Kape spokeswoman said that Crossrider, which has long been shut down, was a development platform that was misused by those who distributed malware. She said Kape’s VPN review sites maintained their independent editorial standards.

“It kind of sets a concerning precedent from the consumer standpoint,” said Sven Taylor, the founder of the tech blog Restore Privacy. “As the average user goes online to look for information about the product, do they know that what they’re reading might have been written by the company that owns the end product?”

A caveat: VPNs are still great for some applications, such as in authoritarian countries where citizens use the technology to make it look as if they are using the internet in other locations. That helps give them access to web content they cannot normally see. But as a mainstream privacy tool, it’s no longer an ideal solution.

This sent me down a rabbit hole of seeking alternatives to paying for a VPN. I ended up using some web tools to create my own private network for free, which wasn’t easy. But I also learned that many casual users may not even need a VPN anymore.

Here’s what you need to know.

What Has Changed About VPNs Not long ago, many websites lacked security mechanisms to prevent bad actors from eavesdropping on what people were doing when browsing their sites, which opened doors to their data being hijacked. This helped VPN services become a must-have security product. VPN providers offered to help cloak people’s browsing information by creating an encrypted tunnel on their servers, through which all your web traffic passes.

But in the last five years, the internet has undergone immense change. Many privacy advocates and tech companies pushed for website creators to rewrite their sites to support HTTPS, a security protocol that encrypts traffic and solves most of the aforementioned problems.

You’ve probably noticed the padlock symbol on your web browser. A locked padlock indicates a site is using HTTPS; an unlocked one means it’s not and is therefore more susceptible to attack. These days, it’s rare to stumble upon a site with an unlocked padlock — 95 percent of the top 1,000 websites are now encrypted with HTTPS, according to W3Techs, a site that compiles data on web technologies.

This means that VPNs are no longer an essential tool when most people browse the web on a public Wi-Fi network, said Dan Guido, the chief executive of Trail of Bits, a cybersecurity firm.

“It’s very difficult to find cases where people were harmed by signing on to the airport, coffee shop or hotel Wi-Fi,” he said. These days, he added, the people who benefit from a VPN are those working in high-risk fields and who might be targets, like journalists who correspond with sensitive sources and business executives carrying trade secrets while traveling abroad.

Simple Alternatives So what to do? Fortunately, most of us can secure ourselves online with basic protections that, unlike VPN services, are free, Mr. Guido said.

Importantly, people should keep the software on their devices and web browsers up to date because new software updates include security protections against the latest vulnerabilities, he said.

Another crucial step is setting up online accounts with two-step verification, which requires two forms of verification of your identity before letting you log in. That safeguard can help prevent attackers from gaining access to your data if they obtain your passwords.

For those who would still prefer not to browse the web on a public Wi-Fi network, there’s an easy solution included on most smartphones. The personal hot spot, a feature for wirelessly sharing a smartphone’s cellular data connection with other devices, like your computer, can be activated in the phone’s settings. Many phone plans don’t charge extra to use this feature, though hotspotting does count against the monthly data allotment in your cellular plan.

How to Create Your Own VPN Some people (including myself) still benefit from using a VPN, and not all providers are bad.

Wirecutter, a New York Times publication that tests products, recommends a few that are still trustworthy. But if your next VPN gets bought by a larger company, you may have to vet its trustworthiness all over again. I’m tired of the whiplash, so I created my own private network service.

I turned to Algo VPN, a free tool developed by Mr. Guido that automatically builds a VPN service in the cloud, which shields my browsing activity by allowing me to create a virtual tunnel on an outside server for my internet traffic to pass through.

Following the instructions listed on the Algo VPN project website, I set up a cloud service where my VPN service would be located on Amazon’s web services, a reputable and widely trusted cloud provider. The rest of the steps involved installing some scripts on my computer and typing in commands to generate my VPN.

After about an hour, I set up a VPN that worked flawlessly. The best part? Not only is it free to use, but I no longer have to worry about trust, because the operator of the technology is me.

nooneescapesthelaw,

Thats the third most idiotic thing ive ever heard

nooneescapesthelaw,

Africa and the middle east as well

nooneescapesthelaw,

They blew up a mosque

nooneescapesthelaw,

You can get 20/hr + jobs pretty fucking easily in California

nooneescapesthelaw,

Bay area SF SJ area 20 is basicallt the nee minimum, lots of security jobs pay 22-25 for no experience

nooneescapesthelaw,

If you are not happy with your life, change it.
