The value of ideas like two factor authentication comes from a baseline assumption that all credentials are comprised.

During the Russian revolution, the Bolshevik party assumed all their meetings were infiltrated and compromised.

It might be time to take a personal security stance that relies on multi factor authentication and review, compliance & recovery just like big organizations do.

Eggnog is good and it’s trans erasure to say otherwise

You can just do anything. There’s some bizarre low follow/view count accounts.

A lot of em stay that way because they aren’t regular updaters.

You should actually try to get arrested. Be taken into custody during dinner.

You could be a competing cummonger in the same city as @RyanGosling@hexbear.net!

Imagine walking up to the bank and opening your overcoat to reveal the dozens of tied up condoms sewn into the liner in rows with their donor dossiers (maybe you have a number scribbled down in a cocktail napkin, a business card or even the holy grail, a stolen id!).

That’s why I said just collect some and sell it instead. Spend all night milking ubermensch loads and then make your morning trip to the bank.

They love to be visited by the cummonger.

You could suck dicks, or jerk dudes off. You could sell your semen to a sperm bank or if you can’t nut, just collect some and sell it instead. Probably sell pictures of your genitals on the subway. Better yet, what if the sperm bank is hiring? You could be the dude who tastes all the samples to make sure they’re not poisoned.

There’s probably other ways but that’s all I can think of rn.

These Muslim names are getting out of pocket…

Al-Scientist? Fr?

Everybody knows Winstons are the best pregnancy smoke. This is fake news.

It’s good that miku is pregnant though, we need more vocaloids!

Nice try, blizzard but I’m not falling for the diablo 4 astroturf campaign.

Anything is fine really. There’s a $15 usbc one on Amazon that’s fine. They’re all b+m keyed and sized for a 2280. If you get one with a heat sink it would be best if the heat sink actually made contact with the device and wasn’t just for show lol.

Make sure the old one is actually 2280. M2 2280 is a physical size spec, 22 mm. x 80mm from the edge of the connector to the center of the mounting screw hole.

Early on lots of places would just say any m2 drive was 2280 and you’d end up buying something that didn’t fit. Measure twice, cut once or whatever.

Maybe check the keying too? I don’t think you’ll have a weird one but they’re either keyed five or ten pins in or both.

hell yeah!

everybody has a different process for storage upgrades. mine is to get an external enclosure that fits the drives going in and coming out, install the new one in the enclosure, hook it up and use macrium reflect to clone the existing drive to the new one, then power everything down and swap em out. it's been very never fail for me. i think you can use macrium on macs too, but for some reason i use superduper there.

the nice thing about doing the storage upgrade that way is that you end up with an exact in place drop in backup in case the new storage fails somehow or something doesn't work, and after youre comfortable with the upgrade, you've got a new external drive.

if you already have a license or have been looking to get one, the new version of spinrite has a scan type that can be used to both level wear on ssds and fix low speed from old bits.

e: make sure to disable bitlocker before doing a clone. it's pretty easy to figure out if you have it enabled, i think manage-bde -status tells you in all versions of 10.

excited to squad up in the merkava armored posting vehicle and watch tiktoks with the boys before its time to unload the 50 into the al-shit.just hospital.

there's a few different versions of that laptop. if you can post your exact model number from the tag on the bottom i can walk you through cleaning it and help you figure out if there's anything that can be upgraded.

those spin convertibles have pretty weak cooling like all laptops do, so a lot of the time just opening the sucker up and cleaning out all the cat hair and foot skin does wonders.

i'm sure someone else has already asked about software stuff, but are you on windows 10 or 11?

Sounds like we need organized groups of hexbear posters combing through federated threads to find and report antisemitic zionism in the lemmyverse.

Thanks goat.

What is the laptop?

I’m not.

Before there even was an internet as we know it the local library had the chiltons manual for that truck. I know because I had a b series and went to the library for the chiltons manual.

Those sections are always big and neighboring counties will collude to make sure they have all the cars covered because it’s such popular information.

There is fantastic potential in the idea of the internet, but what is it? It’s mass media.

Even if it wasn’t and you could fight agent smith inside the matrix and win, the technology that fundamentally changed where people could live and under what limitations is a bigger deal than the one that saves you a trip to the library.

E: sorry if this comes off argumentative. “Electricity is more important than the internet” has some startup lag but the damage is good, it’s got plenty of reach, good hitboxes and can break guards at the end of combos. Once you add in the option to cancel into a roll with iframes it’s hard not to come out a little aggressive.

If it’s a bidirectional medium then how can isps possibly get away with selling 1Gb down/56kb up connections?

The truth of the matter is that despite technically being bidirectional, most people aren’t using the internet as a bidirectional communication medium. Measure it by data volume or time spent reading versus replying. The internet is mass media, and the fact that a client initiates tls doesn’t make it not tv2.0.

Consider what everyone is calling enshitification: it needs a lot of ink spilled to understand until you recognize that every example is just doing ads or making you pay a cable bill monthly. It’s either the normal ota stuff or a special wire you have put in to get hbo. The internet is mass media.

The idea of technically being a bidirectional medium isn’t even new. Old radios could receive shortwave bands that individual people used to transmit on. You could tune in Jim down the street or the boats in the harbor or the cops from your living room set. It wasn’t until the idea of mass media developed around the technology of radio that sets with only broadcast bands became the norm. There was only a tiny blip of hobbyist tv broadcasting because everyone knew what tv was: radio but bigger and more powerful!

Instead of just telling people how soft wonder bread is you can show it, and show a woman biting into it, make sure the lips are plump and red, yeah, wipe the corner of your mouth just like we practiced, okay now smile and wink like you did that one time.

Programs? Who cares! They’re just there to get people listening before the ad plays, to get people glued to the set before we tell you that bread is getting your dick sucked.

Why are we advertising a thing everyone already buys? So they buy our brand, our process, our raw materials and labor from our suppliers and stores! Seems like a lot of work to juice bread sales, but we put nearly every bakery in the nation out of business!

How could the government allow this to happen? The government did it! The airwaves were leased, sold and even freely given to commercial broadcasters with one catch: one day, they’ll ask a favor, some tiny percentage of the programming will be government messages. Maybe it’s emergency services or televised debates. Maybe it’s acting as a mouthpiece for the war department, maybe just running anti-drug commercials. No matter what form, one day I’m going to need to speak to those people who dutifully tune in every night, maybe directly, maybe through you. I’ll give you the airwaves and you can cultivate them into whatever you like, but you must do me this one favor.

How can people credibly be shocked by the existence of content mill “journalism” meant to maximize ad views and engagement metrics? The internet is mass media, bidirectional by requirement or technicality, but never in common use.
