It’s stressful and ineffective. Why do that to myself?
It works much better to block marketing where possible, poison data where you can, scrub personal data from the internet. While the beast is too big too slay, a little effort makes it a lot easier to deal with
Reminds me I need to reset mine again. Big mistake to buy a “smart” air filter. I thought I was getting remote monitoring of air quality data, but I have something that makes too many assumptions about your home network so doesn’t work on mine, support that gave up, and a purifier that needs to be reset every couple weeks
It’s not the particular surface that people are concerned about, but more frequent cleaning of that surface might reduce overall dust settling everywhere
At the risk of resurrecting an old thread, I had a somewhat similar scenario today, but totally opposite results …
I rely on my Apple Watch as an alarm: the tapping always wakes me without being loud or obtrusive.
However I forgot to charge my watch, brought the cable to work, forgot to charge it at work, and forgot to bring the charging cable home. Point is, my watch battery is dead, so how did I get up on time this morning?
So, vendors that “just work”, devices with intelligent failure, multiple independent sources, local control.
That would be the greatest day, when comedians mostly do jokes about dems. Imagine punch lines like “and the dem control all three branches”. Or we just love racist jokes, let’s do one about “the first dark skinned president since Obama, har har har”. And get a load of this one, it’s starts with appointing cabinet members for their expertise! What a maroon! And we’ll never get enough of “and then they passed universal healthcare and saved the environment”! LoL
It can’t be that simple since you’d always be identifiable to anyone who knows the trick
I wonder if there’s a technical limitation to the number of extensions. If a number can have six or seven digit extensions perhaps someone could allocate those randomly, with forwarding to your real number
Seems like Canada is making an impact.
It may not be official sanctions but If there’s any credence to the news, it seems like there are movements to fund more reliable trading partners. It’s tough to make an immediate impact but we’ll see over time how much we’ve screwed ourselves. Will Canadian snowbirds come back? Will China (or anyone) buy our soybeans? Will manufacturers, such as for automobiles, be able to stay in business?
Nice. Too many kids have to be prompted to even use the incantation “trick or treat” much less pay attention to the words
Or toilet papered
I’m due to rebuild my lab this winter so I’ll make sure to take a look
Personally I’m frustrated with always having to give a working phone number to accounts.
I have no idea if I’ve been at all successful in poisoning my data but all my accounts use unique generated emails in addition to generated passwords and fake profile info. It’s just habit now.
However all too often the one piece of real data I have to give is my phone number, and that would be really useful to cross-link all my accounts for data brokers building a dossier on me.
I have hundreds of fake emails but can create at most a couple phone numbers
It is but only if you are targeted. I completely disagree with people who say it’s insecure because most attacks are remote and in bulk. Which your password they can login from any browser but are stopped by the SMS code.
For the SMS code they can use mostly automated social engineering to trick a certain percentage into giving it up.
However while A SIM attack may be easy enough for a targeted individual, I don’t think it scales: they have to do work that only helps with one user. It’s too “expensive” compared to automated social engineering against a million vulnerable users
Which reminds me: I just got a new phone and totally forgot about Authenticator apps
I was able to recover one but the other is lost and I still need to get those accounts reset
Banks are the web sites most likely to reject a generated password from my password generator
This sounds so much better than my bread machine where I have to add ingredients, press buttons, and wait four hours, but can never get a baguette
It’s just as likely he’ll get bored or run out of money and never finish
No girlfriend. She barely noticed him. The ultimate incel
Maybe they need those booty shorts on the other thread instead of conservative trunks
Cool, thanks for the detail!
Just keep On, keeping on. One day at a time. Anything for the kids. Then catch up on sleep 20 years later.
My youngest is now at college so I can finally just chill. But I’m “lucky”, he’s been calling me a lot since no one else answers after midnight. Struggling to get up for work reminds me of the good old days of getting up for diaper changes
