If you buy one used that is how you can get around giving Google money.

From a security standpoint it might give you a temporary benefit since all of Google's tracking IDs will be associated with the original owner. On a new phone I figure it's associated with you immediately.

I will act through engagement.

When you use escalatory language you just just make the Nazis justify their actions by the response they receive.

In another tense moment in American history, the Civil rights movement of the 1960s, MLK was successful due to not being militant. Peaceful action and the strong overreaction of those against civil rights elicited sympathy in those not involved.

The fuck the high road mentality is what likely motivated the shooter and got us into this mess.

There is no reason to escalate what is already a tense political situation.

But can you trust that a user will pick a difficult to break password? They likely will pick something simple to remember but that is not a good password.

The we are just back to essentially having a plaintext password because if the attacker has a good dictionary, it will be easy to crack.

Well I don't think that is the case. Parents and teachers are observing students not paying attention.

I would think if an educator can teach a full lesson, while also ensuring that students retain the information, when the student is watching YouTube, endlessly scrolling reddit or lemmy, or on Instagram this wouldn't be an issue.

The problem is that students aren't retaining the knowledge being provided to them.

For my truck, I ended up looking in the owners manual and found a fuse that is for the modem. I removed it and the vehicle functions without issue.

I know it works because when I brought it to the dealership to get serviced they said they couldn't connect to it via their online service app. They also asked if I had tried to connect to it via the company app on my phone. I just told them I never needed to.

Just to be sure I verified they didn't reinstall the fuse and they had not.

I'm curious how the Russian Federation feels regarding the People's Republic of China attempting to curry favor in Central Asia

 

Interesting tradition. Don't know how well a coffee goes with getting ready for the game.

As mentioned in the comments, plain text keys aren't bad because they are necessary. You have to have at least one plain text key in order to be able to use encryption

That's your opinion on what is and isn't a great analogy.

Hopefully the maintainers of the project will be more considerate in the future.

Yes that metadata can exist but can't that be obscured if AWS isn't connected to directly?

I think some of the technical details of how the ASD intends to ensure data protection/confidentiality/integrity are omitted for national security reasons.

The Autobahn is a very well engineered German highway system. It is well known but was also was constructed during Nazi Germany.

While it was built by evil people, it still is a fantastic highway system that is used today.

Great analogy and perspective.
