This link proves how robust the security research is and how quickly bugs like that are patched.

While these bugs happen, they are fixed very quickly, and wouldn’t be used by any marketing agency. Just keep your phone updated.

Comments like this try to make you give up on privacy by making it look like all is lost from the get to.

They are lying, don’t believe them, there is a lot you can do to protect your privacy.

That helps with other dangers, but in this case all you need to do is not give “Pool 3D” access to the microphone, no rooting required.

Yeah, but not everyone has someone to help them, and many people will prefer Windows for the simple reason that it doesn’t give them problems they need to seek help about, even if the problems have good solutions available.

I don’t use Gnome, but I assume that in the Help menu of that window you will find contact information for the project. Submit a serious version of your image politely explaining the issues, and maybe if you feel like it a better designed alternative.

I imagine the author, who is probably a single person, would appreciate the feedback.

Yeah, but for non-technical people this is an insurmountable barrier. My aunt isn’t “trying a virtual machine”.

My guess would be that the password checking feature has a minimum character limit of 4 characters, to avoid false positives on things that aren’t actually passwords.

Did you reply to the correct comment?

And he’s absolutely right.

Your answer to “how to harden SSH?” is “harden SSH”?

I know your two other points gave concrete suggestions, but it’s pretty funny you suggested to “harden sshd” when that is what OP is asking how to do.

Meanwhile in reality installing Nvidia drivers is literally just a checkbox in a Drivers menu in system settings. Unless you are using Arch or something.

I use Nvidia on Linux for over a decade now, never had a problem. Using the official closed source drivers. I don’t know if AMD is better because I never tried it myself, but in my experience Nvidia is working as well as on Windows.

This is on desktop, I don’t know about laptops. My experience is also limited to gaming, maybe it’s bad for CUDA or something.

Informative article, but damn the clickbait

You are driven by hate. Rowling is not going to get any more “enabled” than she already is with her bottomless pit of money. If you are truly an ally, suggest better media to support, rather than being combative and alienating everyone in the proces.

Again, she is not the creator and has nothing to do with the game other than the creators purchased the rights to the setting.

I am aware the motives behind it are profit driven. But that doesn’t make the message less valuable. People seeing themselves represented is helpful to them, and it normalizes them for other people.

Rowling having slightly more money makes no difference to her spewing her views, she is set for life anyway. Yes I’d like to avoid giving her money, but a much stronger signal I’d like to send is that a game with trans characters sells well.

It would be ridiculous to pretend so. Giving money to trans-supportive games absolutely does though.

Seeing how the game prominently features trans characters and that Rowling wasn’t involved in making it, it probably doesn’t bother many people.

I want to support media that show and empathize with trans people, and Hogwarts is one of them. But yes, even though she was not involved, she surely is receiving some royalties due to the setting.
