Hey is Sharing Luigi’s Manifesto on Social Media Actually "Glorifying Violence"? Because Reddit Said So 😭 in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Agreed! Sad that all the debt and death these companies allow is ignored in these discussions.

that’s what tone indicators are for! Intonation doesn’t come through on text alone but also when people don’t know each other.

If the EU uses online signature for European Citizen's Initiative, why isn't voting online for elections or policies not allowed? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

Simple clear ballots right!?

Yeah, and they're probably the first to accuse you of weaponizing your neurodivergence or depression/burnout.

Everyone is discussing semantics, and no one is mentioning that the bible creation of the woman was mistranslated and the word that was translated into "rib" actually means something closer to "appendage", and the only bone that is missing in men is actually the phallic bone when compared to other mammals, men and women have the same number of ribs.

Edit: PS: I don't actually take the bible's story seriously but think it's an interesting and funny fact.

For those of you who also have ADHD, what made it clear that you had both Autism and ADHD? in c/autism@lemmy.world
[–] gvasco@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 2 years ago

Struggles with working memmory and executive function especially when work was just leaving me burnt-out. Although I found my autism to be more evident initially.

GameStop Boss Says Disc Drives Should Be Required On Game Consoles in c/gaming@beehaw.org

Not if modern proof of ownership technologies are implemented, such as NFT smart contracts.

That's why NFT's were created, but now that people link NFT's to dumb ass pictures, I wonder how if ever it'll make it as proof of ownership.

Because there is practically no risk of damaging the device and bricking it. If you knew anything about the the distribution, it's inhalation and android you'd know that the risk is almost nonexistent and reversible. I understand you don't want to run any risk, sure, it's a valid reason, but to damage the device is practically impossible just from installing another android variant.

YSK: Keeping your accounts/online identity safe in the age of the fediverse/federated networks (discuss.tchncs.de)
 

As more people flock over to the fediverse from reddit, twitter and other centralised proprietary networks it is important that you keep your e-mail and other important accounts safe from hijacking attempts. Since anyone can simply spin up an instance and host users and communities it is important that you don't divulge your internet personal details to anyone as these can be harvested by the instance owner and by any instance you erroneously try to login to or simply the instance could be hacked and the user data harvasted. With this in mind here are some suggestions for good OPSEC (Operation Security):

  • Don't use your main e-mail address. Either create a new one or better sign up for an e-mail forwarding service and set-up forwarding addresses for each instance you sign up to. Since these are throw away addresses, if it gets leaked you can just delete the address and create a new one without compromising your main e-mail address. (Bonus: this can also be used to use unique addresses for traditional web services and make it easy to know how and from where an address got leaked)

Here is a nice article with some e-mail forwarding providers to get you started

  • Use a password manager and generate strong and unique passwords for any and all instances and services you use, this way you won't divulge a password used on another account to the instance owner, or if the address used (especially if you used your main e-mail address)/got leaked your account will still be safe from hijacking by attempting to use password dictionaries to guess the password.

Some passvault suggestions:

  • Passbolt (self hosted)
  • Bitwarden (self hosted and hosted options)
  • Vaultwarden (unlocked self hosted alternative to bitwarden)

These are my main security suggestions for all you new and existing lemmings. Feel free to suggest other security considerations to have and other services beyond those mentioned. Stay safe and have fun posting and commenting.
