TeamViewer got hacked

If this thread is to be believed their statement about TeamViewers products being unaffected is likely not true.

Exclusive: Majority Of Voters Want Next Government To Take UK Back Into European Union
  • Joining at this point would require an insane effort on the UKs side. I am pretty sure that an undemocratic institution like the house of lords would not be acceptable under current EU laws and that is not even accounting for the UKs voting system. The UK would also have to join the currency union. The last point alone makes rejoining very unlikely in my opinion. I think the only thing UK citizens can realistically hope for is, at best, something similar to the Norway model.

  • I have an online business. How f*cked am I ?
  • What is your threat model? If you don't want to give any data to these companies you simply can't interact with them at all. Where do you draw the line? Once you have figured that out you can come up with a plan.

    One thing you probably should always do is separating your business devices from your personal devices. Then create the accounts you need for your business and only use them with your work laptop or phone. If you want, you can invent a sockpuppet persona that acts as your social media manager. This should insulate your personal life from most tracking as long as you don't use your work laptop for things unrelated to work. I wouldn't fuss around too much with privacy preserving apps for a business accounts outside of ad-blocking and regularly cleaning up cookies.

  • NASA finds humanity would totally fumble asteroid defense
  • Semmelweiss is also partially responsible for the widespread rejection of his findings. He basically called doctors who did not follow his advice murderers which naturally didn't help his popularity. Antagonising someone who you are trying to convince usually just entrenches their opinions further.

  • I guess for "Flugzeug", 'device' works better but I don't think I have ever thought about it in that way. From my experience usage usually goes more like this: "Pack dein Zeug zusammen wir gehen weiter." which I think best translates to 'Stuff' or 'things'. Zeug is an interesting word though. It is also used for the harness of a draft animal ("sich ins Zeug legen"), it's bridle ("Zaumzeug"), bed linen ("Bettzeug"), work tools ("Werkzeug") , or as a word for nonsense ("red kein dummes Zeug"). I would say it started, as you said, as a word for device but became a slightly negative word for 'Stuff'.

  • Silverblue vs uBlue
  • I am using Kinoite for quite a while now and not once did layering break anything. The only thing I notice is that the mesa drivers from rpmfusion occasionally go out of sync with the fedora repos and I have to wait a few days for an update. I think ublue would fix that but I am not bothered enough by that to make the switch. What where you trying to achieve that you managed to break Kinoite?

  • Stubsack: weekly thread for sneers not worth an entire post, week ending Sunday 16 June 2024
  • This fucking thread on HN right now.

    OP is an enlightened freelance webdeveloper who is very scared about ghosts from their computer.

    "I find myself in a unique position here, as my diverse background and experiences have given me a perspective that allows me to see the potential impact of AI more clearly than large parts of the society I'm living in"

    Another poster is also very scared about ghosts from the computer and converted their entire net-worth into NVidia shares. Now that they are heavily invested in a company deeply entangled with ghosts from the computer the apocalypse basically has to happen. After all it couldn't be that they overreacted.

    Fedora Linux @lemmy.ml e8d79 @discuss.tchncs.de

    The Wireplumber configuration format changed in Fedora 40

    Just in case anyone else encounters this.

    If you had any custom settings for Wireplumber in a lua config you need to migrate them to the new format.
