Info Sec - Software Engineer - Game Designer - Mod Dev - Digital Artist
Running that much power next to a data line sounds like a terrible idea for signal integrity, especially if something shorts to said data lines. It just sounds sketchy or filled with so many asterisks that it’s functional impossible to reach their claimed throughput.
It really isn’t. At best it can generate short snippet solutions but it absolutely botches projects that require contextual knowledge of the program stack.
My job actively avoids because of the havoc it tends to cause not to mention legal issues.
It sucks but it is what it is. Being an island nation dependant on imports, we don’t have much weight to throw around without self destructing with our already fucked cost of living crisis.
I’d like to think Australia has a nice middle ground design to their sockets/plugs without the foot destroying bulk. Still get the shutter variants for bathrooms too.
For devs who routinely boast about their (ineffective) anti-cheat, this is truly some amateur hour code. No wonder cheaters run rampant in their games.
As much as I agree the 30% cut can be a bit steep, I do appreciate that part of it is going into ongoing R&D like Steam Deck and Proton benefiting the whole gaming industry. I’d like to think of it like Valve are investing into PC innovation similarly to the way Playstation, Xbox and Nintendo do for their new consoles.
Same with Express/Nord VPN sponsorships. Many people debunked the adverising BS they were spinning about blocking tracking when really it only masked a tiny subset.
As someone who studied infosec, those ads were infuriating. Now I just sponsor block it all because I’m beyond tired of it.
God help us all if we have to break out the Emus
Is it just me or are these stories getting a little bit ‘competitive’ on the worst possible accusations with lessening citations. All I could find on this are 15+yr old articles and Instagram/Tiktok influencers.
Hahaha, I wish.
You would be amazed at how ancient and poorly maintained many web servers are on the modern internet. SQL injection still consistently make the top 3 web app vulnerabilities as of 2021. If that isn’t being sanitized properly I don’t expect emojis would be handled much better.
Pretty sure there is a self hosted version already. Seen a couple of Twitch streamers use it so I see no reason an instance couldn’t run one with lemmy logins.
Oh absolutely. I just use it as an example because it’s one of only a few heavily restricted subs that hasn’t yet been purged by admins.
Lets also not forget the massive amount of OS versions, hardware variants, resolutions, and localisations apps like Discord need to auto-adjust themselves to work with. If it fails it will absolutely need that info in the report so devs can fix it.
This is why though I appreciate what DDG is doing, it’s not informing users about the context of what these permissions are used for, leading to a lot of fear over the wrong things. The data may not even be leaving the device but the implication DDG makes is that it is.
As a side note, I prefer to use DNS66 to filter data and ads by domain, then manually set my Android app permissions as needed.
Yep. There is a metric fuckton of tampering across the board, some of which is sub specific.
It’s the same kind of things they pulled with WatchRedditDie a long time ago but now it’s site wide with little to no subtlety. The rules are imaginary and meaningless, more so than they already were.
I suspect it’s not out of choice but because parts of the new UI is duct taped to the old. That said they’ll still likely rip it out soon and break everything in the process, just as Spez’s idol did to Twitter.
As a software engineer who has dealt with so many incidents resulting from the garbage coming out of salesforce. SO. MUCH. THIS.
I swear it’s always in a perpetual state of duct tape no matter where I see it used.
I’m not surprised in the slightest. The politicians and managers in charge of said gov systems are usually of an age that have no idea the basics of how technology works, let alone infosec importance. It’s then contracted out to the lowest bidder on deadlines that wouldn’t permit proper hardening anyways. It’s not even a US specific issue, Australians deal with this dumb fuckery regularly.
Then you get some piss poor public apology, someone gets thrown under a bus, and the cycle repeats ad infinatum.
They support CCS as the protocol
CCS is is only supported through a PLC translation chip on the vehicle side or a rare Magic Dock adaptor, and only when one side is non-Tesla. Outside of that, CCS is not a factor and the proprietary 11bit CAN bus protocol is used natively. Hence, Tesla controls every side of the equation on their protocol and payment processing without having to communicate with 3rd parties.
Name a charging provider that operates in a country tesla does not?
ABB chargers in India
Tesla you get quick wireless security updates, no waiting for a recall notice and trip back to the dealer.
This isn’t new or innovative. OTA updates for cars have been around years before EVs. But usually those don’t stop the car from starting then still be towed to said dealer because the update wasn’t properly tested or have fallbacks in case of failure.
Point is, shit is going to happen across the board for everyone and Tesla is NOT some golden child. It’ll just be another Apple case where dumb security claims get touted until hackers bring them down a peg or two.
The latter works better, then you can go full Lily Tino when called out and ‘attacked’ for the obvious BS.
