It’s a work computer, so the answer is no.

That was pretty common some years back. Earlier versions of popular discussion boards like phpBB and stuff would store everything in the mysql db in plain text. The practice only changed when sql injections became popular with script kiddies. Malicious admins would also just check user’s email and password and try them elsewhere, reusing passwords was even more commonplace then than it still is today.

It’s tied to my job, so I’ll stop using Windows when I stop working there.

I have uninstalled One Drive and enabled a system policy that supposedly sets the default save location to c:\user\documents, and after every single fucking update it defaults back to one drive, hangs for 30 seconds until the stupid ass system realizes that there’s no such thing present, and then it opens a “save as” dialogue with some arbitrary path in %user_apps/appdata/onedrive.

GNARF.

Anti circumventing pushed by an article that doesn’t let me circumvent the cookie consent is really next level.

Sounds like you might have slight dyslexia?

No, they should make a second one.

The moment I see this I delete the game/app and leave a 1 star review. Reap what you sow.

They just block two different options in the software so that they could differentiate.

I’ll take a bus for 1h rather than pay a taxi to get someplace in 10 min to save $40.

No, I never liked Twitter, so I can’t even begin to bother about mastodon. Never heard of the other one.

I tried the Instagram clone for a few days (forgot the name), but it was so empty I left it again.

Cousins in my age group once every few months maybe, aunts and uncles hardly ever. Not even my own all that frequently, but we have a whatsapp group with those and my parents where we chat somewhat frequently.

If you live in a country that is not the US, these things are certified and taken seriously.

Hm ok. I never look at comments or usernames.

I’ve downloaded books (novels) in pdf format, emailed them to myself or uploaded them in a public folder, and then printed them (double sided, two pages on one sheet, just like an actual book) in chunks of 20 pages (so 80 pages of the actual book). Stapled the whole thing in one corner, sat down at my desk, pen in hand, scribbling on the pages here and there.

Source?

Also (and this is a genuine question): Why would I care? They don’t earn anything from me. Does their political affiliation matter when it comes to sourcing copyrighted material?

Freedom from censorship.

Which doesn’t apply to Lemmy either, different instances just censor different trains of thought.

Any “article” starting with the words “in the ever evolving world of”… Lost its credibility before it was even published.

God what an awful, awful time to be alive.

The trump administration can kiss my dick.

There. This is part of my social media history now.

Oh they are actually fully open to science. Let them govern magic sky daddies, if it pleases them.
