There may be genuine use cases to run a script, or whatever the attacker used. The problem is the browsers will auto-run stuff, the user isn’t aware and there’s no way to stop it. All ublock (and others) do is provide the missing security layer called “don’t auto run shit from the web”.

Another example why Unlock Origin should be considered essential security software, not just an “ad-block”.

Did he quit? I don’t see any concrete references online, just vague form conversations about it.

You can check off brainrot with any other of those categories.

Microbloat is deprecating something? That’s new. Do AI next.

Yes, let’s blame the victim and not the data hording mega corps that advertise their crap to collect more data, make big promises, hide the better options, and actively undermine open source in every way they can.

I’m pretty sure the average person hears “open source” and think “oh that’s insecure software made by hackers, I need to only use software from trusted sources”. Using only trusted software is still a good idea, but unfortunately the trusted sources of 2002 have betrayed us.

That’s outrageous! It clearly says on the sign “main character”.

I don’t remember if I did my phone on Linux or windows, but depending on your Linux install you may or not have drivers pre installed. That’s more of a result of Linux installing only what you need, vs windows installing everything someone might need.

As for wifi/updating, I don’t see it as a necessary step on a new phone. However, for a new phone it may be worth loading the stock OS, and running with it for a day or 2 just to make sure everything (WiFi, battery life, cell, BT, etc) actually works before you go crazy troubleshooting a problem that was there out of the box.

Once you do get Graphene installed, you’ll then want to check for any updates.

While having Finger print on/off is everyone’s personal choice, it is pretty easy to lock down the phone. You can spam the wrong finger a few times and it will force the pin requirement or if you press and hold the power button a lockdown button appears, either way it only takes a few seconds.

Despite what the news would lead you to believe, most people aren’t talking to police every day. That being said, if you are going to be in an area with high police presence, than turning off the finger print is 100% recommended.

I dunno, I think this arrangement may match their vibes a bit better.

In American English it would go

“Do you speak English”

“Nein”

“O K. I. Will. Talk. Slow. So. You. Can. Under. stand. Me.”

Great guide, but you forgot the step where the bit snaps inside the bolt so you now you have get through that too.

39 Year old Electrician Dale walks across it without any issue. You see, it’s just like one of his jobs that someone else engineered from a desk without ever seeing that the job is impossible. But, Dale is the man who pulls it off by crossing narrow trusses carrying tools and the new equipment, while his assistant watches from below rethinking his career knowing Dale’s the man he’s going to have to replace in the next 10-15 years.

That ain’t metric

Me too, my biggest sink is Lemmy lol

And there’s people out there that think the average person can tell AI from reality?

I wouldn’t give full control, maybe 3 faders that allow for a 10% reduction in dialogue, music and SFX. Will if affect artist integrity, absolutely, but so does listening on our consumer speakers and watching the content on our consumer grade displays that aren’t perfectly color balanced in a pitch black room.

There is a hardware device, called a compressor that would solve the problem. Basically it reduces the loudest parts of audio on a gradual curve, which allows you turn up the overall volume.

Affordable ones range $100-$250, which should get the job done. Personally, I wouldn’t go either direction out of that range, more expensive ones will be overkill and cheap ones could sound bad or lack the controls to set it up right)

If you can get analog audio out of the TV in to a speaker/sound bar, it’s easy to setup.

So with a cheaper sound bar and a compressor, you could accomplish this for about $250-$400 depending on how much money you can to throw at the problem,

(Edit, some else pointed out if you use a PC for all your content, you can have software compressor on the PC instead of extra hardware)
