I wish they would just use a standard otp algorithm and I could easily use any auth app instead of a dedicated one

They seem to imply that if instead of eating a snack you have a cigarette, then you’ll lose weight
- Comment on China plans an “OPEC” for solar modules to fight its enormous overcapacities, stop price collapse 1 week ago:
It won’t work. Each of those companies isn’t going to actually cut production, just sell the excess on the grey market. Private company cares about profits, the real plan is to have someone else to cut production and raise prices

it completely negates the usefulness of a site like that

why on their website they still link their (now abandoned) xitter account instead of the active bluesky account?
- Comment on Electric Cars Could Last Much Longer Than You Think - Rather than having a shorter lifespan than internal combustion engines, EV batteries are lasting way longer than expected 1 week ago:
it’s a number that i pulled out of my ass but yes, it’s about annualized failure rate. If the average battery breaks after 9 years, then it means there would be a lot of free replacements under the 8 year warranty. Like for hard drives they give 3 years warranty but it’s normal to assume that it lasts 10-15 years and not break immediately after 3 years (exception: [western digital inserted a timebomb[(reddit.com/…/wd_red_pluspro_issue_drive_being_mar…) to mark their drives as faulty via SMART as soon as the warranty is expired)
for the mitsubishi imiev most batteries are still working (different chemistry from modern ones) even if the last ones have been made in 2013
- Comment on Electric Cars Could Last Much Longer Than You Think - Rather than having a shorter lifespan than internal combustion engines, EV batteries are lasting way longer than expected 1 week ago:
I’m not surprised at all.
Almost all automakers are offering a 8 years warranty on the battery. That means who made the battery (=the one that would ultimately pay the bill if it lasts less than 8 years) is expecting an average of 15 years or more
Can you say the same for a normal engine? After 8 years it will start to give lots of problems. Oil leaking, compression problems, dirty injectors, and so on

There are a lot of websites that pretend to give you a hacked version but all the download button does is to show more ads. They just automatically fill pages with automatically stolen content from play store

- Comment on No NAT November: My Month Without IPv4 2 weeks ago:
you connect your PC directly out of the link that the ISP is giving you (if allowed), for example via PPPoE
- Comment on No NAT November: My Month Without IPv4 2 weeks ago:
The challenge didn’t ask to disable ipv4 but it was (jokingly) daring people to expose all ports to public to see how long the system would last before being exploited by bots. It wasn’t meant to be taken seriously 😆

Gave him a favor, delete his account and move somewhere else.
Anyone should delete their xitter account
- Comment on German carmaker Volkswagen to exit China's Xinjiang, sell factory 3 weeks ago:
They are doing it because they need to cut expenses and not because they care about the situation (having a factory there doesn’t necessarily mean they have forced labor from prisoners, just ultra cheap labor from ultra low wage workers)
Shareholders first

Add the newpipe repository to fdroid for faster updates
Or use a fdroid client like droid-ify where the newpipe repository can enabled with just a toggle and not a somewhat difficult to find url

- Comment on Before buying this printer, I made a quick search to confirm that it has wifi connectivity... (the algorithm lied to me) 4 weeks ago:
i was in a physical store and i saw this in clearance, didn’t have time to do the usual spreadsheet where i compare 10 almost identical variants all with a similar price that vary by just one bit.
The same stuff is sold as G2170, G2270, G2470, G2570, G2770, G2870 and G2970, one add something but remove something.

- Comment on Before buying this printer, I made a quick search to confirm that it has wifi connectivity... (the algorithm lied to me) 4 weeks ago:
I specifically bought this to print photos, ink is not ridiculously expensive like other models, is like $150 per liter, which is still high considering that’s colored water, but not the usual $5000 per liter.
- Comment on Before buying this printer, I made a quick search to confirm that it has wifi connectivity... (the algorithm lied to me) 4 weeks ago:
i already opened it and filled with ink, if it was from amazon i’d do that, but i bought it from a small business and that would cause a big loss to them, the printheads are now primed and a return is e-waste as they’re going to dry if sitting unused in a warehouse. At work we have many usb to ethernet print servers from the early 00s, they’re now e-waste and i can get one for free (it’s just that wifi is more convenient and i can place it wherever it fits, instead of routing a cable to the switch)
wait… printheads are disposable and they don’t sell those as a spare part??? FUCK! Will this be destined to the e-waste collection in 2-3 years???

I also took 30 minutes of reading the manual before realizing that, yes it doesn’t appear in the wifi network list because it doesn’t actually have wifi connectivity…

- Comment on Can't install app because it isn't "certified" by the government 5 weeks ago:
But it’s global version or China version?
China version ROM is like this since the mi 6, the excuse was “limiting grey market sales”
Also the ROM now uses a different signature so from mi 5 onwards, flashing global ROM on china version, doesn’t allow to lock the bootloader again (you can send the command to lock it, but then you get a softbrick)
- Comment on Can't install app because it isn't "certified" by the government 5 weeks ago:
In this specific case can do it but the bootloader unlock request must come from a Chinese ip address, from a verified Chinese number (get otp code via SMS) and wait like one month

They’re mostly configured to ignore it, at most quarantine it

I set the mail server to bounce everything that doesn’t match dkim.
I almost don’t receive spam anymore.
The problem is that sometimes some legitimate services didn’t configure their email server correctly
- Comment on Accounts that send a 2fa code to your email rather than using the 2fa code generator you've already setup for that account 5 weeks ago:
Facebook not only sends the code to text without asking, but they love to just directly start the reset password procedure.
Now, that’s super weird. Are they assuming that, because last time I logged in was 6 months ago, I must have forgot my password?
- Comment on Hidden razor blades 5 weeks ago:
The upside is that in this way they use less plastic. Cardboard can’t be transparent and people doesn’t separate the plastic from the cardboard when recycling.
We all know what razor blades look like so a photo can suffice, no?
- Comment on Automattic creates website tracking WP Engine departures • The Register 1 month ago:
He is insane
All that info is publicly available, but a nice CSV ready to be fed to spambots isn’t a really good idea…
If I was involved with wordpress for business, i would start to find a plan b, because now they target wp engine, then who’s next?

LOL genuinely thought it was a case of “engineer hates the user”, instead it was a case “management said we need to save 5 cents for the voltage regulator”
