Once again, for the executives with CTEs in the back:

Piracy is a service problem. These people are fans and they can’t afford your product, or it’s simply not available in your area. Make up the loss on price reduction and availability through sales volume. Cut out toxic partners who try to MBA you into gouging. You’ll still be rich and your brand won’t be damaged from all the gouging & prosecuting you’ll be doing otherwise. What are you, fuckin Nintendo?

Live Mas as the root account

In America we’ve had several instances of undisclosed webcam monitoring of children via school issued devices.

I think /mnt is where you manually mount a hard drive or other device if you’re just doing it temporarily, and /media has sub folders for stuff like cdrom drives or thumb drives?

Manga is Japanese comic books; the “print version of anime” if you will. Lots of anime is based on manga.

It doesn’t make any sense in the context of the document, though; which why I wonder if it was a mistaken translation

Yeah but if they go on mission and “go dark” then you still have this starlink thing that may or may not be disabled by the person smuggling it on board. It may also be connected to official things if the owner has bad intentions, or if someone else who does finds it and co-opts it.

There is a lot that could go wrong with unauthorized radio transmission equipment on a warship, and not all of it is obvious.

Mistranslation of “Maga”?

I’d be a fan of a law that requires local control through standardized hardware and software protocols for any devices sold.

And no, I don’t think the standard needs to be codified into law, but I do think it should meet minimum requirements.

That or Ansible, if you will have a machine to deploy from

Zoneminder was cool when it was the only game in town, but didn’t it save “videos” as a folder of JPEGs of frame grabs?

It’s not even that, it’s to shock them so they keep engaging with the channel, telling their friends, etc. which increases ad impressions until they are caught.

Then they create a new channel and start again.

This is Elsagate 2 but with more nefarious tactics.

and Steam

Exactly what is Steam doing now? AFAIK only charges fees sales of games through the Steam platform, from which developers get a LOT of value.

I mean there had been complaining for years that it was becoming just that; it’s just that they were trying to do it without anyone noticing and then all the tech bros got into a hold-my-beer contest

Why that’s literally what it was designed to do

Don’t forget us Bluefin/Aurora people either

Yeah, always check all of this stuff. Server hardware gets a lot more updates than like gamer board BIOS, companies invest high millions, even low billions in this stuff and they expect problems to be address promptly for that kind of cash.

Check for any peripherals or cards, too. RAID, backplanes, networking cards; drivers, firmware, anything.

It’s a cheeky play on “WINdows Emulator” as well as “WINE’s Is Not an Emulator”, but I think for both legal (trademark) and logistical (it really isn’t an emulator) reasons, you’ll never officially see that bit sanctioned

I think Firefox and Safari are the only ones. (Don’t come at me with that Brave bulllshit)

This is god-tier technique, kudos

Bitwarden has a free 2FA app, and 2FA is integrated into autofill with the premium version of the password manager (which is $12/year) and is fully open source and even self-host able.

Why go through all the trouble of KeePassX and SyncThing when it’s literally LastPass without downsides
