That is addressed in the article

Even after users change their account password, however, it remains valid for RDP logins indefinitely. In some cases, [independent security researcher Daniel] Wade reported, multiple older passwords will work while newer ones won’t.

This whole comment thread sucks lol. The top reaction literally just says “go away”. Talk about wannabe authoritarian tankies

Lmao what is Synology smoking. I have used their hardware in the past, now I’m so glad that I chose a Nextcloud setup for my home storage solution.

Also why does the nonsense reasoning for these limitations always include “security”. That’s a rhetorical question btw, I know they are just making shit up.

This comment by Frodo Douchebaggins in the Ars Technica comments sums up my newfound disrespect for Synology pretty well:

Suck a turd, you enshittifying sons of bitches.

A few channels like The Linux Experiment post videos to both, probably for the reasons that you mentioned. Its uncommon though, because most YouTube channels are (partially) in it for the money. No ad revenue on PeerTube!

By all means, use the block feature to remove stressors if it helps.

For me personally, unless someone is actively haranguing me in DMs I’d rather not block them. Sure people can place comments that get me riled up. Or sometimes they seem downright hostile. Maybe they’re having a bad day, you can’t say. But it goes both ways, if I’m tired or having a bad day I could be misinterpreting people’s comments and blocking them for no reason.

If a comment is so bad/rude it becomes rule-breaking I’d rather report it and have a moderator tell them off, it might be a valuable lesson for them or if they are repeat offenders the mods can dish out appropriate punishment. This keeps the instance and community in question healthy.

They’ll have to pay for the cellular connection themselves because I’m not gonna enter my wifi password into the tv lol. Been using a pc hooked up to the screen for ages. Screw “smart tv” features, slow and inconvenient as hell.

The article is about protecting the integrity of Wikipedia from admins with ulterior motives. Regardless of the correctness of the article, “going after Wikipedia to take it down” does not describe the topic in the slightest. Why does this have so many upvotes? Are any of you even reading the linked article?

Facebook and YouTube weren’t as good at recommending things back then. It’s not the internet as a whole that’s the problem, it’s what social media has become. Addiction skinner boxes. It’s not ok for kids to grow up using that.

This is solving a systematic problem. The problem of social media companies having free reign to make kids addicted. This will give french kids more freedom to think and do actual things with their life.

A good reason for banning smartphones is social media addiction. Not internet searching. Its currently normal for 12 year olds to be on their phone 6-12 hours a day. And because of peer pressure parents can’t do anything about it. A kid without a phone is isolated because everything happens in chat and social media.

There are more thorough solutions like age gating social media but a blanket school ban is a good start. If you still don’t believe me you should really read up on what smartphones do to a kid. Addiction, lack of self control, no attention span, nearsightedness, the list goes on. Based on leaked research by TikTok itself btw.

In China they don’t destroy their own kids because they already know the effects. TikTok shows different stuff there (educational content and propaganda), and kids are limited to 40m(!!!) per day. Everyone is going to deal with scores of fucked up kids while they don’t.

Thanks for the headsup. That makes my notification icon feel a lot less risky to click 😅

That’s pretty rough. I hope Lemmy webclient and app developers will make some changes to the way images are handled in DMs based on these events. Just don’t load images in DMs until you click a button or something.

Ah yes more paperwork is certainly going to make your employees more productive. Why don’t you also require them to prototype if kicking a rock against the wall 10 times does the job, instead of actually letting them do the job?

So chain of thought is an awful experiment that doesn’t let you know how an AI reasons. Instead of admitting this, AI researchers anthropomorphize yet another test result and turn it into the model hiding their thought process from you. Whatever.

Cool I didn’t know peertube supports live streams. Tried it and it worked like a charm

Getting better at communication takes time and practice. Depending on where someone is in that journey, a post like this can make a big difference. And I think we can all use a reminder to be kind every so often. So, thanks for taking the time to write this out

Dunno maybe you can subscribe to more instances (sublemmies? I don’t know the lingo) and somehow filter out the ones that go bad quickly. My enjoyment of Lemmy went up by a lot once I started ignoring the front page and curating my subscribed instances. Just make sure you visit the list of communities every so often

Thanks for the guide on how to switch. I’ve been using a mail provider with my own domain for a while now. I’m not unhappy with their service but they only let me make a few inboxes. Good to know switching can be seamless.

If noone used it that wouldn’t matter. Experimentally implemented features on a separate branch can still be useful as proof of concept to whoever is taking their time to discuss where Wayland has to go. Of course the usefulness depends on how well the Valve devs understand the needs of the desktops.

Spare tube of toothpaste? In this economy?
