What? Because of the elections? I feel like it's always been an excellent time to delete social media accounts haha

I have a TP-Link router. Maybe I'm an idiot, but I searched around for a bit and I literally could not find which models of router were effected. All articles about Botnet-7777 are frustratingly vague with this.

I don't get it

I think it's a combination of the security risk and a slippery-slope argument. The security risk is that, at the very least, it opens up an avenue for hackers to more easily extract personal information from your PC. The slippery-slope argument is that Microsoft can just choose to enable this feature, or parts of it, without your consent. It used to be that you could turn of all telemetry in Windows (XP/Vista I believe), but now you can't do that for 10.

Every retail worker's nightmare

In the next 7 days I will get:

I got this.

One of those canisters is equivalent to burning 178mL of gasoline. Or enough to power an average car for 2km. Most people burn through the equivalent of 30+ of these a day going to work and back.

Oh sorry, I didn't realize this was a shitpost 🤦‍♂️

230C right on the iron lol

I think it attracts a certain type of person to Lemmy in the first place; someone who would have probably used the original Reddit back in the day

Fucking Veggietales predicted this

Damn, literally just wanted to work there

They updated their description of how their search engine works. The new description is still factual, while being slightly easier to understand. The new description also has some fancy marketing flair. They still make it pretty clear that they use other search engines via anonymous calls.

I wouldn't call that shady at all... Unless maybe I'm completely missing the point here.

Hi. I'm sorry, I didn't mean it that way. People have put a lot of effort into developing Lemmy as both a software and a community, and it wasn't my intention to devalue anyone's efforts or say that it's a lost cause. I think people should continue using Lemmy. This was just literally my stream of consciousness. I'm more upset that the original Reddit is gone and I wanted to highlight how Lemmy is not a perfect replacement.

I used to follow /r/Canadianhousing2 on reddit. Very right wing, conservative, simplistic views on the housing crisis in Canada. I realized eventually it was a cesspool of hate and racism and stopped.

I think this is a fairly benign move with a valid explanation that has been taken out of context in order to be more inflamitory

I worked for a competitor, (not laid off, just quit to take a break). AMD seems to pay a bit better and the office is closer to home. They have been stealing coworkers over the years. I get the impression that the company culture is a bit more about taking risks. My old employer was very conservative, and even though I was working in the least conservative team, I still felt like the culture was too slow.

Why? Is it a bad place to work? Spill the beans lol

Mayor Ken Sim and ABC Coun. Brian Montague are in the photo, standing next to the couple. No other city councillors appear to be in the images.

It should be pretty clear to everybody who Kenny is in bed with

I agree. Sorry, English second language.
