- Comment on Anon sets up a prank at school 5 days ago:
We had printer drivers that would show a notification for net send. The broadcast went out to several schools for some reason and it was basically a spell to summon our head of IT.
One time I sent something after it was forbidden and the guy came crashing through the door, demanding who was using a specific laptop. Turns out that laptop was broken and sitting in its receptacle and a friend of mine tried to use it just a minute earlier.
Good times.

It requires reflection and then the willingness and ability to accept you’ve been had. Something the MAGA fashos are incapable of, otherwise it would have happened much earlier.

He’s already the hero for the idiots. No need to change anything, it’s already the perfect allegory - just that they’re rooting for the villain.

Emulators are great. Just found a Family Guy Game iso for PPSSPP after my original PSP died years ago. Now I can play with my favorite controller.

I’m playing XCOM: The Bureau (2013) right now on an 6700K (2015). Why touch a running system. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The joke to counter “you can’t even write cursive” and other boomer bs is “well at least I know how to print a PDF”, alluding to the abysmal tech intuition of some boomers, usually those in controlling roles like managers or CEOs.
- Comment on There was a time when everyone had common sense 1 month ago:
I’d make a “print a pdf” joke, but honestly, that’s already an unnecessary “skill”.
Sadly, technology has moved towards single finger usability and thrown out features in the process. Printing a PDF is now easy, because there’s a big button (that sells you a cloud subscription for some reason), but it’s also the only thing the app does.
- Comment on Too dumb to understand where the gas tank opening is 1 month ago:
I’ve been practicing driving with a person who shouldn’t drive. She has no feeling for the car, i. e. doesn’t understand how you would correct your position, drive in reverse etc., and it feels like she’s asleep with her eyes open. Imo driving is a constant stream of decisions and she just doesn’t make any. “Why are we driving here?” - “I’ve been looking for somewhere to turn around.” - “We’re passing suitable locations every 3 seconds and you’re going 50.” - “I can’t decide in time which to use.”
She’s afraid to go the speed limit, highways are off limits. The other day she just straight up drove out into an intersection from a yield side without breaking and stopped in the middle. I warned her it was coming, there were signs and everything. She doesn’t know the speed limit when it’s always very clearly signed. She doesn’t read directions and can’t navigate by herself; “if I say nothing, go straight, or right if straight is not an option” is forgotten after 5 minutes. She’s been driving with an instructor (which I am not) for 20 lessons and we’ve gone at least ten times, too.

- Comment on The steam mobile app telling me to open the steam module app to login to the steam mobile app . 2 months ago:
Reset password via email. Reset second factor via email. Email is the only factor, neither password nor the 2fa.
Usually, the actual login is not the easiest target for an attacker, the recovery methods are. You call a helpline to get a second SIM for SMS codes. You guess (or dig up) answers to recovery questions if available. You get access to email accounts, e. g. via phishing.
If a recovery path for a security factor is weak, it ceases to be a security factor. By allowing both password and the second factor to be recoverable via email, both factors collapse into one: get access to the email and you’re in.

People only think about extremes. Why do we need seatbelts on a plane? Well, not for the crash, for the tons of turbulence you don’t think about because you’re wearing your seatbelt when they happen.

I completely failed that course. I don’t know what they mean or how to use them.
I never needed them. Guess it’s “when will we ever use geometry in real life” but with EM fields and waves.
