Using the Yuzu case for guidance, dumping encryption keys, regardless of the source of those keys, is illegal

This is false, as the case is non existant, because it has been settled out of court. It has to be proven in court that is illegal, as there's no law that says that dumping the keys from my own hardware that i paid with my own money is illegal.

Facebook not only sends the code to text without asking, but they love to just directly start the reset password procedure.

Now, that's super weird. Are they assuming that, because last time I logged in was 6 months ago, I must have forgot my password?

At $12/terabyte/month it seems pretty expensive for media collection (I mean: family photos are irreplaceable but generic video?)

Other options are to use "glacier" tier S3 which is cheap to rent but ultra expensive to recover (but hopefully you won't need that)

Or just put a pi+HDD hidden somewhere at work/parents and copy to that

The problem is that otherwise the ai companies would just pirate the stuff and use it anyway

Take the pocket change is better than nothing

How to make money with shitcoins 101:

  1. Pay some $100k to some dev to create something the slightly differs from the existing ones

  2. Pay some millions of dollars to some marketing agency to find a way to get this shitcoin popular. A funny name, a funny icon, or some solution in search of a problem. Something like "this shitcoin can lower the transfer fees of other shitcoins and also if you hold the bag you get 69% APR"

  3. When it launches you immediately buy it for pennies, or even directly access some premined quota (like 30% of whole distribution) that the dev left for you

  4. When idiots buy it, raising the price, you slowly dump it

  5. Clueless people did the staking (lock them for a year) of millions of "cat coin", worth $1 each at the time thinking that they are going to get 69% APR. They actually get the 69% APR, but the problem is that each "cat coin" after a year is worth $0.000001 each

It's already the moment of selling high. Buy low is when they're introduced. Shitcoins are generally going down with value. If you buy now you will end losing money 100%

None of them have a real practical application, it's 100% speculation

I have a revolut account and for some reason they give $1 in shitcoins if you answer some questions like "bonk differs from the other shitcoins because it's made for the lolz" or "floki does exactly the same of other shitcoins but slightly different"

The upside is that in this way they use less plastic. Cardboard can't be transparent and people doesn't separate the plastic from the cardboard when recycling.

We all know what razor blades look like so a photo can suffice, no?

He is insane

All that info is publicly available, but a nice CSV ready to be fed to spambots isn't a really good idea...

If I was involved with wordpress for business, i would start to find a plan b, because now they target wp engine, then who's next?

Hall said the trial was unfair and continued to insist the bombing didn’t happen as he left the court.

Nice try, openai bot (/s)

LOL genuinely thought it was a case of "engineer hates the user", instead it was a case "management said we need to save 5 cents for the voltage regulator"

 

I hate this scale, it says low battery and shuts off after just 3 months of sitting in the drawer. It infuriates me that there's still a lot of energy in the battery, I can use that in remote controls with no issues

If there's enough battery to say "low battery", then there's enough battery to show the measurements!

 

I went to install gsam battery monitor on a new phone and it looks like it has been delisted recently.

Does anyone has more info on that? It was a staple on my phones since almost a decade...

Any alternative that shows a graph with rate of charge/discharge?

 

I bought a refurbished pixel 7 in europe. I assumed it was the european version (GVU6C).

I tested it and it appeared functional in all functions, so i released the escrow to the seller.

Now because I don't trust the software hasn't been tampered, I wanted to clean it with flash.android.com but... can't because it can't unlock the bootloader (even if i connect to internet and call the code ##2432546## to get the "checkin requested" from google play services)

It looks like i have the model GQML3 for Verizon which can't be bootloader unlocked. FUCK! I especially bought this because it can unlock the bootloader...

Anyway.... about restoring the original software....

Phone says "phone is with latest update installed" with android 14 and security update from 5 june 2024.

Can I flash the full image for android 15 with october security update or i risk a brick? Do I need to wait for the lazy fucks at verizon to "certify" the android 15 update? Those fuckers take ages to "certify" the updates...

 

They can't sell the $699 AI party trick that requires a $24 subscription so they slashed the price to $499. Unfortunately it's still $500 too expensive for what's worth.

Maybe at $10 someone could buy it as a Halloween costume prop and even pay a whole month of subscription just to show off the novelty

 

A decade ago I used BitTorrent Sync. Then it became Resilio Sync. Then with Resilio Sync 2 they nerfed the free app to a point that I just removed that from all my computers and switched to syncthing.

Yesterday I was watching my server struggling when syncthing was doing the periodic scan of a directory with hundreds of thousands of files and then i thought, "maybe Resilio Sync uses less resources or doesn't waste time reindexing a static directory for the nth time"

I went to see their website and now with the new version 3, all the features are back. The business plan now is to sell the app to enterprises at unaffordable prices rather to persuade consumers to pay a subscription to self host their syncing server

I wanted to try it but now they say docker version is discontinued, need to install the package to bare metal. Ugh... So I desisted and decided to stay with syncthing

Now with the news of the impending discontinuation of syncthing android app, everything changes. Without Android support, syncthing is no more irreplaceable for me.

So, has anyone tried Resilio Sync 3? Is it good?

 

I saw a 3d printer using plastic pellets instead of filament.

Is this a good idea? Because I never saw anyone doing this.

Seller says "in this way it won't run out of filament" but I have the impression of imprecise extrusions (machine was fitted with a big 0.8mm nozzle)

 

Segnalato abuso a aruba, dice che magari non è effettivamente phishing e che magari è effettivamente legittima... (il link scarica un file js contenente sicuramente malware da indirizzi ip residenziali, mentre dice 404 not found da ip datacenter/vpn/esteri, l'operatore ha provato ad aprire il link e non ha funzionato)

Inoltre, con mio sgomento, ho scoperto che su pec non è possibile impostare filtri o spam e secondo il supporto aruba questo è da design perché su pec bisogna ricevere tutto sempre, per legge, anche se è phishing, malware o spam. Quindi, è sufficiente pagare 5 euro l'anno ad aruba e si ha una licenza a mandare spam/phishing illimitata.

Io davo per scontato che una ferramenta non vendesse esclusivamente ferramenta ma anche vernici, materiale elettrico e idraulico. Certo, non con un' ampia gamma di scelta che può fornire un negozio dedicato, però almeno due spine e le due serie BTicino e Vimar più diffuse forse sì.

Invece sono rimasto stupito a vedere che questa ferramenta grande, con ben 4 locali abbia messo fuori un cartello che dice "per evitare di perdere tempo in coda, in questa ferramenta vendiamo solo ferramenta e non materiale elettrico e idraulico"

 

Intro: Webtoon is an app/website where (mostly Korean) comics are released in short episodes. Those episodes aren't released all at once but usually once a week, you have a free unlock a day and if you want you can have more by either watching an ad or by paying with coins, that are paid with real money. With the smallest purchase ($6), an episode can be unlocked with 3 coins (¢35) up to 7 (¢80). You can also skip the wait by paying with coins. I used it for years and I was ok by watching the ads at the end of each episode. It limited myself to one a day, otherwise I would scroll for hours. But, at the end of June 2024, they did the IPO, so that means ✨enshittification✨

So the guide on how to push away users to piracy:

  1. Have a scary reminder at the beginning of every episode that says that piracy is illegal. (I can't screenshot that without a rooted phone, it's blocked). This helps the user to have a daily notification that yes, this content is also available somewhere else and you're not bound to artificial limits.

  2. Put the last three episodes of a series started 3-4 years ago in perpetual paywall. No more "just wait one week to get the new episode". You want to see how that 200 episodes story that you're reading almost every day for 3 years ends? LOL pay $6 to buy a coins package!

  3. Now that the user is pissed that they can't know how the story ends, they'll just search it on the illegal sites, since over the past years they had to skip through 200 reminders that yes, this story is also available over there.

 

And it failed spectacularly.

We only needed a simple form, but we wanted to be fancy, so we used "nextcloud forms".

The docker image automatically updated the install to nextcloud 30, but the forms app requires nextcloud 29 or lower. No warning whatsoever. It's an official app, couldn't they wait that it was ready for NC 30 before launching it? The newsletter boasts "NC hub 9 is the best thing after sliced bread" yet i don't see any difference both in visual or performance compared to NC hub 2

Conclusion: we made our business to rely on nextcloud forms as a signup form, but the only reason we were using it was disabled who knows how many weeks ago.
