Now that it's mostly over, how did Crowdstrike affect you?
  • Holy crap, same here! Came back to service and phone blew up with all the news.

  • What's the latest gadget or tech that you regret buying?
  • Why couldn't they add barcode scanning to the device? Cheap and useful.

    Or even a camera? I could use it daily in the IT world for pen testing and video/ picture proof.

    It would not add much cost...

    Even Wi-Fi is cheap as hell... Yet it doesn't have it.

  • Share the photos... Save one device to use

  • Small phone lovers... our era is not over. Yesterday I discovered the Unihertz Jelly Star. I fell in love. I will be reporting back.
  • What's the camera like? I take a ton of photos and really need good quality.

  • Around 76 locations were raided in India as part of a crackdown on phony tech support scam calls
  • A lot of the phone systems they use are phone app based with a USB head set.

    But 48 laptops is still a bit light.

  • For real. If people want to beg, at least post it on GoFundMe and give me a reason why you think you deserve to travel the world when I sit at my desk for 8 hours a day to earn money to pay for rent.

    Even if you posted something like, I will randomly offer strangers free labor and record their reaction at the destination, would be a good enough excuse to fund you.

  • Almost got scammed today for Green Card, maybe ?
  • It's a scam.

    "There is no fee to enter the green card lottery. However, if you're selected and choose to apply for a Diversity Visa, you'll need to pay the mandatory green card application fees. Once selected, you'll receive information and details of the required fees on the Diversity Visa website at dvprogram.state.gov."

    The fees are around 200-300$ never pay over the phone. Always verify it's a .GOV site.

    "You must pay the fee online using the USCIS Electronic Immigration System. Go to www.uscis.gov/uscis-elis and select “Log In.” • Select “USCIS Immigrant Fee” from the chart. Enter your A-Number and DOS Case ID as shown at the top of this handout. Pay $220 online.“

    Amazon Echo 2nd Gen stuck in Updating/ Setup mode

    July 2023, my Amazon Echo 2nd generation stopped connecting to my Wi-Fi and was displaying a red circle/ ring or a Orange light. Because my network names were the same, I tried disabling the 5 GHz Network and only having a 2.4 GHz network available but it would still not work.

    After trying to connect it for hours and letting it sit on updating purple circle, I finally decided to take a look at the router it turns out the router updated and started supporting WPA2 and WPA3; which after many hours of research found that the Amazon Echo and other devices do NOT support.

    1. Disable WPA3 on your router
    2. Reboot the Wi-Fi router
    3. Enter setup mode on ECHO/ Alexa
    4. Reconnecting the ECHO/ Alexa using the Alexa APP
    5. Profit $$$

    You might have to "factory reset" your ECHO/ Alexa device to get into the setup mode.

    Current state of Reddit - No more free speech
  • You're probably right, they are likely comments riding the top comments to "fight the system" or maybe Reddit is getting botted.

    I'm kind of torn, I think at this point I might give up on Reddit...

    How are you keeping up with new selfhosted apps?
  • There are hundreds maybe thousands of new projects being starting monthly. A person makes the decision which project is "self hosted" or something else. I don't think that bots can do that.

  • Me now that the new lemmy clients can replace my reddit addiction
  • There's a pretty big reason it isn't. The developer actually talks about it and there have been multiple comments about it on the sync page on Reddit.

  • Honda recalls 1.3 million vehicles worldwide (video)
  • What is this "video"... they need to just stop.

  • lost my email because of Google 2FA
  • I agree that the digital life deserves rights for certain services like email, social network site, etc. But the line is pretty thin between rights and rights to anonymity.

  • I'm a sys- and database admin
  • haha that's awesome! keep up the good work.

  • I'm a sys- and database admin
  • I'm curious, how have the numbers changed in the last few weeks?

  • Saved myself 200 bucks there.
  • I would guess that it's ABS. Most car parts are made out of ABS so it should weld seamlessly.
