on LGBT tolerance slumps in the Netherlands as debate turns vicious in c/europe@feddit.org · 2d ago
What I’m talking about is that we shouldn’t be pointing fingers and saying “at least I’m not THAT bad” because that’s how we all fail. People that are saying “voting isn’t going to matter” and “america is a lost cause” are just trying to demoralize the ones that are fighting. Protests help. Voting helps. Volunteering helps. Posting on forums helps. Brainstorming ideas in a public way helps. All of these things take small bites out of the problem, and when they add up, they make change.
We should all be trying to make everyone better. We should be sticking together and trying to improve everything for everyone. We should be holding our politicians accountable for capitulating to the US, to Russia, to Israel. We should be pushing back on billionaires, racists, right wingers, religious zealots. We, as a species, are not doing enough to stop climate change.
None of those things are unique to one country, and pointing fingers just divides us.

Hey, all you europeans pointing at america saying “what’s wrong with you people”
If it can happen anywhere, it can happen everywhere.
america isn’t special. it’s just one place where hate and fascism popped up in an obvious way. This stuff is happening all over the globe, and needs to be tamped down before it gets too big. Keep fighting, keep pushing, and stop thinking “it can’t happen here” cause it absolutely can, and will.

I have no idea how they would have made the next season. Feels like they’d have needed triple the budget.

on Signal will finally let you register without a phone number, for a price in c/technology@piefed.social · 17 Sep 2026
Registering without a phone number is easy, but users must store their ID and password safely in a password manager. Since no phone number is attached to the account, if a user loses either the ID or the password, they will be completely locked out and have no way to regain access. The app now also supports adding two-factor authentication for numberless accounts.
After registration, users can create a username to share with others. They can also opt not to create one. However, in that case, they can only participate in chats they initiate, because other users will have no way to search for them to start a conversation.

on Florida woman goes to Crunch Fitness. Then she notices a man in Meta glasses: ‘This is my protection’ in c/technology@lemmy.world · 14 Sep 2026
You don’t go into an opposite gender bathroom to clean without propping the door open and putting a sign up stating that it’s being cleaned. You don’t want to be in a stall cleaning something up, while someone else walks in and starts changing without noticing you in there.
Heck, even if it’s a same gender, they often do that so they can take care of the whole job quickly without getting interrupted.
Recording while walking around in the bathroom/locker room is never and has never been the answer to any problem that has ever existed.

Cause the manosphere likes to tell every man that if they haven’t been falsely accused of something, it’s just a matter of time. So if they record everyone constantly, then they can “prove” that it was just a misunderstanding.
Of course, if the accusation is that they’re been a creep and recording people without consent…

on This is the back of my 10" Mini server rack -- Custom made 3D printed power modules for each server in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world · 13 Sep 2026
It might be clearer to say it’s more like your house wiring, instead of a power strip.
This is almost exactly how outlets are Daisy chained through a run.
Basically you have a homelab where every device is plugged into the next outlet along a wall, with each outlet being really close together.

His design is parallel, you’re just seeing it from the wrong perspective.

A homelab can accept a lot more downtime than a company that runs business off of a rack of servers.
A tradeoff between a sweet rack design for having to disassemble a little extra when replacing parts is a perfectly valid tradeoff for me.
Hell, most of us only run a single UPS, if any at all, which would have the same limitation.

It is pretty awesome, only real problem is that if you have to replace anything in the middle, you have to shutdown everything above it too.
That being said, it’s pretty fucking rad.

on Time for a new course in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev · 11 Sep 2026
Every job gets a little more techie every year. I’m sure the master plumbers use some pretty sophisticated software to plan out the plumbing in a house.
Heck, just a simple job needs planning, billing, and more. All of which use computer systems.
Even just knowing logic and high end math is showing that you’re not just a knucklehead looking to do the bare minimum.
Every bit of experience you had in a previous role can be used in the current one. Just spend a few minutes thinking of how it would work and use that in any interviews you get.
Just remember, even though most of these folks didn’t go to university, doesn’t mean they’re any dumber than you are. If they’re doing high quality work, they’re probably just as smart, or smarter.

Don’t get discouraged if you don’t get picked right away. Sometimes they have a year or more backlog on apprenticeships.
If you stick it out, it can be a great career!

on Don’t Let Anyone Take Away Your Big Box of Cables - Jim Nielsen’s Blog in c/technology@lemmy.world · 10 Sep 2026
I clean out my SnakeBox pretty regularly. Sometimes there just isn’t a reason to keep them anymore.
It’s worse having to dig through a bunch of garbage to find the cable you want, then to have to order a new cable once every 10 years.

on can someone explain this to me? in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 26 Aug 2026
The point of the comic is that people expect a firewall to protect them from attacks, but then the attack comes in as a path traversal and the firewall does nothing.
-
on can someone explain this to me? in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world · 25 Aug 2026
It’s called a Path Traversal attack.
Basically, if you add a …/ in a query, you can start to work backwards in the directory tree to root, then go up again to someplace you shouldn’t go. The firewall doesn’t block this attack, cause it’s just doing a regular HTTP(s) request.

Geothermal systems can do that for water heaters, AC, and heat, so… They kinda already do that.

on Best Buy 'repairs' customer's gaming laptop by simply removing half the RAM— claims unit in question only accepts 32 GB of RAM despite listing a 64GB configuration in c/technology@lemmy.world · 20 Aug 2026
It’s not about voiding a warranty, it’s about having a warranty claim processed.
You can maintain your stuff all you want, but if your shit breaks, and you want someone else to pay for it, you’re going to have to let them fix it.
That means taking it to best buy, or another authorized repair shop.

Except that won’t be valid for warranty repairs. If you want your computer fixed at the manufacturer’s cost, you have to take it to a manufacturer certified shop. At least Best Buy can handle it locally and you don’t need to sent it off.

on Pet owners say smart pet feeder outage led to furry ones going unfed in c/technology@lemmy.world · 15 Aug 2026
It could be that their work schedule makes it so they’re not home for meal times, but are home for other times
It could be that people happened to be traveling for this and most cats are fine with an occasional day or two home alone.
It could be that some of them are really bad with daily scheduled tasks and need something to help take that load off.
Maybe consider not being super judgemental about how people manage their pets, there’s perfectly reasonable reasons why people might want, or even need, an auto feeder.

on Anthropic just rolled out a tool that'll decimate some people's dreams of writing AI novels undetected in c/technology@lemmy.world · 13 Aug 2026
Copy/Paste it into notepad, then copy/paste it from there into whatever else you want it.
That’s been the go-to for removing weird characters from text since the beginning of time. You SHOULD do that any time you copy text from any web page to remove any hidden text, or weird formatting.

on New Orleans will use AI to answer 911 calls instead of a human in c/technology@lemmy.world · 8 Aug 2026
You can’t put a barrier between emergency services and someone in an emergency. Sometimes they literally don’t have the ability to press 1.
Just overstaff your call center. That’s it.
Spend a little extra money to ensure your emergency workers aren’t stressed out 24x7, and they’ll have the staff to manage a bigger event.
It’s an emergency service. Spend money on it like it’s important.
