  I changed the password to all my accounts (the ones still in use, and all the remotely important/“meaningful” security-wise) before they somehow got access to this one. I just got to see them bounce off a few others, which is how I guessed they were in Brazil, from the related security mails infos.

  I used a different, secure password for every account this time. Idk what I could have done better and it seems to have worked for all my other accounts so far.

  Middle schoolers passing around deepfakes nudes

  I have no data to confirm this but I’d wager it’s disproportionately kids using that kind of stuff. I think the vast majority of adults who want to look at some titties or whatever are perfectly happy cranking it to one of the millions of freely available pictures and videos out there.

  Hell, last month I had to factory reset some kid’s phone because they downloaded some “undressing app” that obviously turned out to be malware. I’ve helped adults and seniors with their tech before and they do dumb shit too but I’ve never seen one do that

  For a shady steam keys reselling site, I once sent a picture of my id with literally everything blacked out but my name (they had that from my credit card), and it got accepted too

  Sony is so bad at digital ownership that it was apparently easier for some dude in Brazil to claim my account than for them to double check I didn’t move halfway across the globe overnight. Also the recovery process is absolutely terrible. It’s literally the only moderately important account that guy was able to “hack” into (and I did reset the reused password after it got leaked but I guess the guy was able to force his way through customer support simply by knowing the old password and the mail address (that they never had access to, mind you. It’s still secured and regularly checked).

  I know the meme arrows come from 4chan dude. But this is Reddit atheist behavior. Bro is probably the author of the “euphoric” quote

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anon ruins christmas⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I used to be big on atheism but I do think it is also a belief system now. I realized that when a christian friend asked me “if we witnessed something that is indisputably an act of God, would you still believe he doesn’t exist ?”

  So, anyway, I say I’m agnostic and that I really dislike organized religion now.

  Knowing he was only playing that match because some fascist paedophile pulled a favor from the other most corrupt person in the world had to affect his mental state, if he has a modicum of self respect, that is.

  I mean, so can we.

  Typically I won’t vote on the post because it doesn’t warrant a downvote imo (but the censorship usually annoys me enough that I won’t upvote either) and I’ll upvote the comments clowning on OP for sharing censored bs on Lemmy.

  Hardly an argument when you can get one that would have been top-of-the-line years ago for 20 bucks at most. Maybe 10-20 more for an external one

  I’d expect more unionization to mechanically reduce games scope by increasing workers hourly compensation. And progressively remove authority from the MBA guys

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Based on laws from other democratic countries who aren’t even particularly fond of unions as a whole, but still didn’t go full mask off capitalism.

  Fun task for you if you want to learn more about this : research why labor day is May 1st basically everywhere else in the world, but not in the US (and Canada).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Coincidentally, unions might be the only things that could still save the AAA side of the games industry…
