Ha! Good luck with that.

Most white collar workers equate collective bargaining to “being a greedy thief”

O_o

It offers both. But if you do it remotely from the owner’s phone, it doesn’t require the passcode. Presumably in case you forget the passcode you set in the car.

And once you build the functionality to turn it off remotely, you may as well allow turning it on as well. For example, if you realize you forgot to enable valet mode shortly after handing over the keys, you can still do so.

I hate to break it to you, but pretty much all modern cars have this level of remote controls - even if they’re not exposed to owners.

that feature is called “Valet mode”. It’s specifically to stop valets going joy-riding on your $150k car that was faster than most Ferraris back when that feature got added.

Basically, the person that owns the car can always kick out other people’s access.

If she legally registered that vehicle under her partner’s name (instead of her’s), then she’s shit out of luck.

The thing about software is that it’s so big - no one expert can cover even a small fraction of “software”. If you’re a kernel driver developer, you might benefit from having some “automated experts” available in CSS/HTML for the pattern recognition they can offer.

I find it amusing how most experts think AI is great for every field except theirs.

Closest we’ve got is companies not actively union busting

By default pull requests my new contributors require approval from someone with write-access to the repo before running actions.

These repos have specifically decided to change a setting to make them not require approval for anyone. The UI to change that setting explicitly warns you about exactly this attack, so this “article” feels like a non-item trying to farm engagement.

Hah! They don’t care about “builders” or users. They care about business. Specifically large enterprises the have too many people to care about a single employee’s individual productivity.

Microsoft caters mostly to them and is quite good at that.

But if you’re an end user, gamer, or individual consumer, just move to Linux already. They don’t care about you.

The core of the problem trickles down to weak CI/CD configurations that grant pull requests (PRs) more permissions than they should have.

How exactly do their competitors like codeberg do better in preventing that?

Yeah, if you avoid money sinks up front, you also don’t get sucked into money sinks later on.

I have a 200" projector screen and anything below 4K Blu-ray is very noticable. 😅

That’s a funny way to spell "our 401k"s.

Obligatory “Fuck Tim Sweeney!”

In this analogy Darrell fires an ICBM, because everyone has access to a ton of those for $20/mo.

The overall point is that doing (what used to be) the bare minimum is no longer even close to enough. To be considered adequate, you need super ironclad defense, because even low skilled attackers have access to very powerful weapons.

Oooh. Can you give some more details about how you did that? I have a Japanese friend coming to visit for about 2 months and she might want to watch TV during the day.

Does it have to be an SBC? I’ve had great success with a second hand Lenovo Thinkpad

Bookmarked. Will keep in mind if I ever need a DAM tool.

Odd. I thought he was gay.

I know there’s no rule saying gay people can’t rape people.

But for some reason, my brain reacted with “Odd…” 🤔
