Well
A) Close it properly then. We have one of those at work, old worn out gaskets, fridge pops open when you close the top freezer, and somehow we can manage to figure out how to close it back up every time.
B) Replace your gaskets.

Y’all just leaving fridges open all day where you are? In my neck of the woods “Stop staring and pick something, you’re letting all the cold out.”

Kind of, but also False Imprisonment is illegal and this is that.

That’s unlawful forcable detainment and kidnapping, I’m pressing charges and a suit on the Waymo CEO if I’m those kids.

Of course, they are still traceable, just not by serial number, but through forensics. Tbh I don’t think they can trace serialized frames (beyond “reported stolen” and checking the DB during a traffic stop) any easier, they still need forensics for those, too.

on Cult of Anthropic Insiders Rumored to Be Worshipping Claude as a God in c/technology@lemmy.world · 5d ago
Yup! Idk if we know who put it there, but either Paul Reubens or someone on his staff was one of us! Paul was apparently aware of us but idk if he was actually a dues paying member.
We also have David Byrne, two of Devo (Mark for sure and one of the Casales, I can’t remember which though), the voice of Dr. Kleiner from Half Life is a high ranking member (Dr. Hal), Burroughs joined (after he left scientology), there’s many more too but I’m drawing a blank right now, but we’ve got some titans of weird art for sure (perhaps unsurprisingly, for a satirical art collective cult from the 70s.)

Nah, Xavier sounds more like some kind of renegade angel. And maybe he has a snake for a hand or something like that.

on OC: How I Removed the Mic Component from 2 Remotes in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 15 Sep 2026
it isn’t something most people can do
I get so sick of this mentality (not just for this, but for everything these days). It’s always something that, short of disabilities maybe, almost anyone can learn to do with $25 in amazon bullshit equipment and a 15min youtube video, maybe not to a professional quality but serviceable enough. Expensive shit I understand, tbf.
They’re not willing to put in any effort to learn it, they’re not “unable” to, it’s learned helplessness and pure T bona fide laziness 99% of the time especially when we ALL have the resources available to learn X. Tbh, you’ve already done more than “most people” are willing to in this guide alone by actually taking action, “most” would just complain and do nothing, but they ALL could fully desolder the mic with 15min of knowledge and the cheapest amazon kit, if they just fucking do it. Like dude I can do it, if I can do it anyone can, trust me, I’m not that much better than everyone else I’m just a guy with internet.

on GrapheneOS project: pixel 11 no longer supports hardware memory tagging (MTE); GrapheneOS might skip the the whole pixel 11 series in c/technology@lemmy.world · 30 Aug 2026
Simple solution: wait until they announce support before buying a new phone. Short of your current one breaking or no longer updating, you don’t need a new phone right now, you can wait.
If you do need one right now because of one of those reasons, sucks, but just buy the most recent one that is currently supported (the 10) or buy one that will EOL sooner than you’d like (maybe an 8 or 9, used/cheap) while you wait for the new one (the 11).

Good luck, dumb phone means no encryption, SMS and MMS are stored plaintext and freely shared with US three letters and phone convos have been spied on en masse since the 80s.
For that to be effective you’d have to give up phones, smart, dumb, even carphones and landlines. Not only that, you’d have to reliably know your contacts are never contacting you through their phones, windows PCs, etc, that all themselves have that compromised HW as well. Realistically you’d need to fall back on the postal service, but people can steam open letters, so you’ll need directly employed couriers, but can you really trust anyone else? So you need to hand deliver it, but can you really trust your contact to burn after reading? Better say it face to face, if you can be sure they (or third parties) aren’t recording, but then Flock knows they were with you and they could be tortured later.

on Effective Web Tracking Methods in 2026: Explained in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 25 Aug 2026
I mean, unless you avoid all the trackers, at least as much as possible. You can at least lessen it if you’re smart about it.

I was logged into several other things at the same time to test it.
Yeah probably tbh, they share data.

on Flock CEO calls for ‘compromise’ as surveillance company faces growing backlash | TechCrunch in c/technology@lemmy.world · 25 Aug 2026
Even deeper, they claim to be able to read “pet tags,” which would mean they can read ANY RFID, they know your gym code, if you have a fob for your apartment they can clone it and get in like a kid with a Flipper 0.
Idk how it’s physically possible so hopefully they’re lying, they should have to be basically touching the tag, but they claim they can. I’d believe they can read UHF RFID but that isn’t what they claimed, they specified “pet tags” (which again, would mean they can do all tags.) And that would mean they can add NFC and read your cards in your wallet, if they wanted, because that isn’t far off from RFID. Now ostensibly they’d have to perform the handshake with your card so they’d only have the same partial info a Flipper could pull, but like, still not a fan of that personally.

Ah, I see. Had you ever logged in with that device before? Even if you’d reset it, you can’t reset the IMEI number (and apparently there’s a similar tracker on windows).

I mean, no matter how good your opsec is, you logging into your acct is handing them your identity on a silver platter. Like, you go to facebook using Tails with good opsec, the log in page doesn’t know who you are, but then you type “my@email.balls” and “hunter2” and it knows you’re either a hacker or you’re actually you, so they send you an email “blah blah been accessed from such and such IP/IMEI/etc” but unless you say “fuck no it wasn’t” then they’re like “alright, guess it’s him, add this to the list of tracking this guy’s shit.” It’s like, the guy at the liquor store doesn’t “know who you are” but then you pull out your ID and all of a sudden he does, “yeah, because you gave him your ID.”
You’d need to create a new acct with fake details you haven’t previously used and a fresh email. Or just like, not sign in at all.

The answer is simply “do not use facebook, instagram…”

on Effective Web Tracking Methods in 2026: Explained in c/privacy@lemmy.ml · 23 Aug 2026
I mean, idk, you can resist fingerprinting and tracking all you want, if you log in to a tracker and tell it “yes, I’m me” then it’ll always be able to track you. The fact that you’re logging in with your identity at all seems to be negating all anti-tracking efforts.

Set up Delta Chat to use an unencrypted classic email address (which requires a little set up as they really want you to use an encrypted chatmail server, but once you do set that up) you can use it as a chat app for any emails and your contacts will be none the wiser. There you go, emails are chats now and you can rest easy.

on In a universe of enshitification, Linux is one of the few things that consistently gets better. in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
No he’s not entirely wrong, popular demand plays a role. Plays a role in capitalism too, sometimes.
Chasing quick profit can exacerbate the issue, for sure, even a company chasing a slow and steady profit is better than one chasing quick profits, and open source better still, but honestly nothing (or at least almost nothing) is entirely immune to external pressures.

“New? Nano. Wanna try another because you’re comfortable now? Do it.” Problem solved.
And yet you still need to replace your gaskets when they’re failing, because the gaskets are also important to the function of the fridge.
Now, am I going to spend the $15 to get gaskets for my bosses fridge? No, that’s his problem, but I can still “A) keep it closed.”
