You nailed it. Users cannot be trusted to not re-use login credentials.

I know we all hate it, but proper 2-factor authentication via authenticator apps must be the default position for everything.

To be clear, is he in hot water over what he said about the ADL? Or the fact that Nazi’s are proliferating on his platform and advertisers don’t like it?

In many cases I believe SOMEONE is paying these supermods.

It’s more about controlling public discourse than it is any sense of moral compass IMO.

It’s a fairly cheap way to control the narrative on just about whatever you like if you can steer acceptable speech around hot button issues on such a large platform.

I have embraced all the good parts of Windows 11. I will continue to cut out the telemetry and other creepy elements like the cancer that it is.

That’s certainly a factor, but I think it has far more to do with availability of content.

I can afford to buy a proper VR setup but I do not see it as a worthwhile investment because practically none of the content available is of interest to me.

It’s the equivalent of dropping 2K+ to play mobile games.

Until AAA studios are actively developing for this hardware, I’m not interested…but they won’t because barely anyone has the hardware. It’s a real chicken and egg scenario.

No thank you. Startallisback to the rescue. Ghost spectre to remove whatever bullshit they put in this time.

I’m not against progress, I just prefer my computer to leave the thinking to me.

Are you well regarded in your community? Because you are certainly regarded here.

I had issues with that lack of HDMI 2.1 support.

Tried to pair mine with an LG CX OLED and could not for the life of me get it to reliably run at 4K.

It chooses its own dogshit res and it looks bad even though it scales well. Not about to watch a bad picture on such an expensive display.

Starlink won’t beat FTTP or FTTN, but it sure as shit beats fixed wireless and sky muster.

Shit, just not having to deal indirectly with NBNCo every time there’s a problem (multiple times per month) has got to be worth $100 per month to me.

No regrets. FUCK NBNCO sideways, with an axe.

2012 Toyota. Toyota T-Connect didn’t become available until 2014.

It’s also a paid service! It requires a sim card and a plan, and would have relied on the factory entertainment unit which I have removed.

I think you are mistaking ‘black box’ type data logging with an always-on internet connection phoning home with the ability to turn features on and off which is a more recent and far more sinister phenomenon.

My car is nowhere near that smart, and I don’t pay any subscription fees so I doubt I’m rolling around Australia with a data connection that I don’t know about.

I’m not interested in any vehicle that requires an app or has its own connection to the internet.

place on Lemmy to ask travel questions.

Good luck. One poster would ask if you like sex and travel, then tell you to “Go and get fucked.”

Another would accuse you of being a bourgeois lib who is killing the planet with your capitalist excesses.

Another would go on a rant about privilege and how your very ability to ask such questions in a public space speaks to your total lack class consciousness and your ignorance of “The Movement” or something like it.

In short, check out Vang Vieng in Laos and have a great time.

I’m so tired of everything becoming an ongoing subscription. In the end the most powerful vote we all have is our wallets.

It’s a pretty easy thing to just immediately stop buying from companies that pull this shit.

Socialist as in they send enforcers to your house who have the right to force themselves inside and check how many screens you have got feeding government propaganda into your skull.

You have to pay a TV licence to be lied to. Pretty sweet.

It’s pretty easy to block the sources of such news. I certainly don’t see any of it. I operate on the assumption that the kardashians all died from full blown AIDS. I might not be right today or tomorrow, but soon.

I have to lock in shipped specs potentially 18 months out?? So I’m buying an outdated laptop then?
