Seriously, some people are that good that you know they could do almost anything very well in a matter of days.

So why not ? I always have a lot of respect for someone that is willing to drastically change their lives in order to improve.

We have a great macrocontroller, a brain.

Maybe not as reliable but definitely easier to program.

Honestly, the only good advice is to consult a doctor.

Is it possible that this password was really your gf’s password in the past ? It could have leaked long ago and the hacker just decided to use a previously leaked pass to be more inconspicuous.

I don’t think this whole story is so wild, it could be just coincidental. The hacker knew somehow about her DOB and thought this would be an easy password.

Rest assured a hacker wouldn’t want to use their own password or reuse even one as that could link to previous nefarious activity. So they had to set up a brand new password just to move forward. So they set up anything personal they could get their hands on.

PS: you should check haveIbeenPwned for the address of your gf.

Also as DDG is based in the US it is most likely legally bound to give your informations to any agency with a nice gag order on top of it.

I can’t imagine any serious privacy oriented business to be headquartered in the US.

The whole better privacy is true with DDG but certainly not to the extent people would like to think.

That being said DDG has decent search results and is slightly better than Google for privacy. Google is an ecosystem so every little bit you don’t give them is a success.

It’s really too bad we don’t have good private search engines…

A long time ago I used a CLI download manager that could download from different mirrors at the same time.

I think it was a tool called axel and it worked very well.

The EU can’t even pay for fediverse servers?

(•_•)

Same devs as the Nvidia driver installer?

I always select the custom install option and always get recommended the same version that is already installed.

(Physics engine or something).

Oh no you have to say it out loud EVERY time ?

We also have that in France.

Some peers on torrents are indeed tracking uploaders. Here you receive a letter saying which file you shared and when.

Blockbusters are the most likely to be tracked.

For me I avoided that system with alldebrid’s sort of seedbox. And direct download with alldebrid.

Here as far as I know, a datacenter IP is free to download anything and everything on torrents… Which it then uploads to DDL sites for me. And since they can’t don’t track DDL it’s safe.

So install truck brakes on the luggage then use brake cleaner. Got it.

Thank you for the advice.

As far as I recall he actively seeks to commit cybercrimes and even says so himself.

It’s not the first young hacker on the spectrum that has urges to hack stuff.

It’s a whole different question when someone is conscious he is doing something illegal and actively seeks to do it.

This is not another Aaron Swartz story imo. It’s an autistic individual that doesn’t hack out of curiosity but in order to damage businesses, and people or benefit himself.

I would use the second one as a backup.

You could use one of these USB SDcard reader and script something that backups the content of the running/live SDcard to the second one on the USB stick. With dd or something you could have an always ready backup SDcard of the RasPi system.

That or using an old Android phone as a media center and putting the second SDcard in that.

Or using an old Android phone as a surveillance camera but that would be a bit overkill to have 256Gb.

Also if you have an early model of the Switch you could hack it to run pi… homebrews and in that case having a super large SDcard could be good.

Also this conveniently doesn’t show white color background.

I use the VLC subtitles download feature.

I think it goes to opensubtitles anyway but at least you don’t have to experience the website.

They also put literally download links towards malware…

Definitely in my list of unsafe websites.

Too bad it’s the reference for subs.

Rocket league.

I thought it was just some soccer car game and could not see the complexity and skill required to master the game.

Went back to the game years later and pretty much never dropped it then.

I will just say that the recent video from Veritasium about night vision goggles does indeed say that you see better the blue light in the dark rather than the green.

And that’s why high end military grade night vision goggles are in the blue spectrum.

Now code is imprinted straight to your retina.

You can see the code long after in your sleep and keep on optimizing it.

Is there a feature to migrate users from one instance to another ?

I think it will be important when some instances will shut down. As long as people can move, then I think we can spread out the load.

I know my instance is handling the load very well and I’m really grateful for it.
