Or spend it in a single night in Luanda, the Dubai of Africa. There are a lot of Oil tycoons from the US and other countries in Luanda so there are some very expensive options.

The landlords needs to give a written notice to the tenants at least 24h before they can give permission to the vampire. And the landlord needs to be present as well. Unless the vampire is a registered repair man, then the notice is enough.

Is it realy so incomprehensible to see how useful it is? I feel like most people in this threat just close their eyes and scream. Yes you can call, yes you can find a different solution to every problem. But it is still fucking convenient to just know where somebody is without you having to ask them having to actively respond.

I think most do. Everybody here only looks at the “controlling, jealous partner” and never at the actually “loving, healthy, concerned partner”.

There’s no upside

• Know when they come home or if they are stuck in traffic
• “oh you are still in the store can you get me …”
• security if they get kidnapped

It is insanely useful to know where your partner is. It is not necessary. It is still useful. I would not allow my partner 24/7 location information. It is still useful. I don’t trust any app/manufacturer that allows such a feature. It is still useful.

Its an exaggerated non-issue

Linux is not a uniform userbase. Many systems will be affected by this. Many users will be fine because they use a well used and maintained distro. Many servers and embedded systems will not be fine.

That raspi running your pihole that is never updated? Yeah that might just stop booting next time there is a poweroutage and you wouldn’t know what’s up.

You can’t lose stuff you bought just because the publisher shut down the servers.

I mean that’s exactly how it works right now. And depending on the exact wording of any laws passed as a result of this petition only the game itself or some or all micro transactions will have to be made available after official support ends.

Public servers will either sell micro transactions themselves to finance servers or make all in game content available to everyone for free. I can see publishers having a problem with that.

Most likely, if they are forced to allow public servers after they shut down the official ones, they will pull some other bullshit. Like claim the game is still available, but the 300$ cosmetics you bought are not allowed on public servers because they are separate from the game.

Beeing able to access the file doest mean you know where it is. What happens if that file isnt recent any more? Android hides the file system from the user. “Recent files” is a prime example of that.

Every time you enter a car there is a higher chance of “will I die during this trip” than when you enter a plane.

Yes the “chance to survive a plane crash” is lower than the “chance to survive a car crash” but the chance to ever be in a plane crash is incredibly low, even when you factor in the number of cars vs number of planes etc.

100% certain it would be more. And I wager it would actually, be more than linear. Double the number if people with guns and you get more than double the number of mass shootings.

Old Testament god is not benevolent. They are based on ideals from a time where the natural thing to do after winning a war was to kill everyone of fighting age and take everyone else (especially the women) as slaves. Ever wonder how Moses’ people got to Egypt in the first place?

Old testament god is a god of war and wrath. Killing only the Pharaohs would have been weakness.

Off topic, but how do you do that on Lemmy? In jerboa there is no option (that I know off) to browse another instance. Do you open your home instance in one browser tab and the one you want to explore in another and once you find a community you like you switch to the other tab and subscribe to it there?

Perfect, let’s also bind the certificate to a user session that is derived from a user fingerprint. That way the CA can track users across all sites

An open pit at an elevation of 1.5km still means the bottom of the pit could be 1km higher than the place the ore is processed at

Depends on the scale of “going down”. Many mines are in the mountains and the material has to be brought down to lower elevations. The mine entry may be lower than the nearest pass but still a lot higher than the destination of the ore.

And the brain didn’t even know it was naming itself.

The ancient Egyptians removed the brain before mummification because they considerd it to be basically useless. Later associations between motor control of muscles and the brain were discovered but it wasn’t until the development of modern neuroscience that the brain was considered to be the seat of awareness, self and intelligence.

Client isolation doesn’t help. That is just the access point not routing traffic between connected devices. The problem with WiFi is it is a radio signal. Everybody in range can receive 100% of all communication on that network. Just by being in range the attacker can do passive sniffing. No wiretap needed like with cabled networks.

WiFi is encryoed if it uses a password. So any public WiFi without a password can be sniffed by literally every device in range (no need to connect to the WiFi for sniffing). On public WiFi with a password, the radio signal is encrypted but everybody knows the encryption key. So everybody connected to the WiFi can still sniff the traffic of everybody else.

That encryption is only on the WiFi level, so encrypted radio signals, not on the actually traffic level (like TLS/HTTPS etc).

No, why would it? It will run code in the context of the current user which is absolutely enough to start a new process that will run in the background, download more code from a attacker server and allow remote access. The attacker will only have as much permissions as the user executing the code but that is enough to steal their files, run a keyloggers, steal their sessions for other websites etc.

They can try to escalate to the admin user, but when targeting private victims, all the data that is worth stealing is available to the user and does not require admin privs.
