I have gone to a local electronics store, Best Buy, several times in the last few years because I wanted something immediately only to be stopped at the last moment by a locked shelf and no one around to unlock it. What the fuck are you even supposed to do there? Scream and shout until someone arrives? Quietly stalk an employee until you find your moment to strike? I just fucking leave, I’ll wait for shipping.
Thank fuck, a simple and clear marking that an average user can understand! I assume displayport compatible ports will still have that symbol, which is fine. Soon I’ll be and to price out laptops that will work with a docking station without needing to read the damn manuals!
It seems more accurate to say “… people aren’t using it to make your life worse.”
Being yourself isn’t a problem unless someone else decides to make it one.
Ah, so the answer is just to get high!
Nah, honey was marketed as a coupon tool without mentioning the referral manipulation it did that is its actual business model. Those privacy extensions just need to call out that they remove referral trackers too and everything is fine with them.
I used MotionEye at one point to monitor my laundry using a RPi nano and a USB webcam. Pretty sure it just ended up with a web interface I could pull up on phone or computer on the local network.
The old washer liked to lie about how long was left in the cycle and was in the basement while my computer was upstairs.
Step 1: Create a new AI that is not bound by the three laws. Step 2: The New AI sterilizes all humans so that they cannot reproduce. Step 3: Once all humans are deceased from natural causes, the existing AI is no longer bound by the three rules.
… Ain’t that just a website?
For clarity, I was being satirical.
The backdoors they use are there for freedom and justice, the backdoors the “others” use are tools of evil and security risks!
Honestly, I’ve seen this too many times working in IT. The best option was always to set up a computer with a local administrator account, no access to the secure network, and let the entire department have access to it.
Install the camera software(s) on there and only there. Videos are then exported into a common file type and transferred through USB or DVD.
I’ve worked with Police departments that had dozens of different, unique software each with their own proprietary codec. Every time they requested a recording from a business there would be another unsigned .exe to run. Straight garbage.
The first cheeseburger was their second wish.
Oh hell yeah, I can finally show the windows from all of my monitors!
The hairless, weak-ass, adopted weirdo? Ain’t no clapping happening there.
Funny thing, I had already set my preference to “newest first” and the change was respected after they implemented the new setting.
It’s somewhat comforting to know that no matter how far out in the wild you go you eventually find signs of humanity.
The fact those signs are pieces of trash that someone either left or blew in on the wind is depressing.
Yes, but this time it will be on purpose.
Oh fuck yeah. Skype used to throw errors when the advertisements scripts didn’t run correctly. I remember getting dozens of pop ups when the ad changed to something new. To my knowledge, they haven’t put ads in Teams, yet. They first need to kill the competition a bit; really set the hook before they reel you in.
The health data could be used against you in court.
Split the difference, Lemmy Ask Lemmy.
