A question about the CCleaner
  • Yes… the part of the course I am at right now is about encryption on windows. I just skipped how they expained encrypting your HDD with veracrypt… that’s sad… windows itself lets you encrypt stuff natively…

    Edit: now they encrypt it with bitlocker… like a whole 10 minutes of showing that…

  • A question about the CCleaner
  • I hate to admit, but I played Raid shadow legends on day 1. it was shit-tier after 3 hours and thirsted for money.

    Needless to say, a YouTuber I saw during a YouTube-Trip said that they declined the raid shadow legends deal, despite it being 5 figures. Didn’t say the specific amount though.

  • A question about the CCleaner
  • Yeah I’m not going to use it. I used it once back in the days, but never since because it fucked up everything. It’s just, I paid for a cyber security course that’s all about how you can be safe, and then they throw NordVPN and CCleaner onto you in 2023 and I just… I’ve learned a lot about networking and security in this course and then that?

  • A question about the CCleaner

    Hello world! It's me again with a question!

    So, I remember back in the days of WinXP and Vista when we had the CCleaner or CCCleaner. I recently watched a YouTube video about some guy stating that it is so good and the best thing you can use today.

    If I recall correctly, didn’t they get compromised like 7 times already and switched owners a couple of times?

    Same guy talked about NordVPN being so cool and stuff but a friend of mine found some software of them on his server, I don’t remember what kind, probably some tracker or adware, and since the incident happened around the time everyone started to get sponsored by them, I don’t really trust VPNs.

  • I love the use of the female pronouns instead of he/she. Makes the text easier to read without triggering feminists. Anyway, I’m about halfway through and had to say this: This is the problem with nearly everything. You’re just told what and how it does but not why. I recently had a data-protection schooling at work and made some notes. Like they tell you that “social engineers“ manipulate you into giving them data (not to stick usb sticks you don’t know from some people into your PC, all the stuff you’re familiar with) but not how they obtain data.

  • I mostly use A.I. to translate. ChatGPT gets that done it gets it done pretty good, especially when you say “translate this mandarin text into English. I don’t care if it is somewhat inaccurate, just do it as best as you can.“

  • A question about passwords | characters used in them
  • My mother’s password for everything got compromised recently. I told her to think of a sentence that will never happen and to write it down and store it somewhere safe.

    She remembered it instantly.

    Oh, and I made her a password manager

  • A question about passwords | characters used in them

    Why do so many companies and people say that your password has to be so long and complicated, just to have restrictions?

    I am in the process of changing some passwords (I have peen pwnd and it’s the password I use for use-less-er sites) and suddenly they say “password may contain a maximum of 15 characters“… I mean, 15 is long but it’s nothing for a password manager.

    And then there’s the problem with special characters like äàáâæãåā ñ ī o ė ß ÿ ç just to name a few, or some even won’t let you type a [space] in them. Why is that? Is it bad programming? Or just a symptom of copy-pasta?
