They were pretty astonished when they heard that she had installed a GPU by herself (which most people here know is trivial). Which gave her enough confidence to fix her VCR by herself.

Anyone can learn any skill if they actually invest the time.

And regarding the older brother, you learn pretty quickly working help desk that users generally don’t care what the problem is or why it happened. They just want to get back to work and not have it happen again. After a while you get conditioned to just be friendly and solve the issue without explaining what you’re doing or why.

They did back when that was the windows logo.

Ultimately, in terms of security, you’re likely to find that both are similarly good.

What makes Firefox desirable over Chrome is that it’s not beng developed by massive corporation that gets the majority of its profits selling user data and delivering targeted adverts.

The other thing that may act as a deciding factor is the “MacOS doesn’t have viruses” effect. Wherein that because firefox has such a small userbase in comparison to chromium, it’s far more profitable to find exploits in chromium.

Well of course it errors out, you’re using powershell rather than DOS

If looks dont matter, I’ll recommend the same thing I always do when people want an air purifier.

Look into making a Corsi Rosenthal Box. They’re surprisingly effective, and dirt cheap.

This sounds fucking incredible, and I will be trying this as soon as I have avocados again.

People have been saying this since he was forced into buying the platform. I initially thought that could be true too.

As time has gone on, however, I’m starting to think he’s just that incompetent

Excel is one of those tools that punches way above its weight class. Which is why it’s so common to see in places where it should have been replaced by a proper database years ago.

Supreme Court: Death Penalty Is ‘Totally Badass’

My favorite single moment so far was the conclusion of the battle between Luffy and Boa Sandersonia.

It really highlights that Luffy is not willing to act against his principles, even if it would further his goals.

Best arc though is a tossup between Arlong Park or Impel Down. Arlong Park has had the best character writing in the series so far, and Impel Down has the highest stakes.

I’m currently going through the One Piece manga for the first time and I’m having a blast.

I’m in the middle of Punk Hazard right now and it’s starting to drag on, but I’m told that everything gets way better afterwards.

• Game: Return of the Obra Dinn
• Book: House of Leaves
• TV: Twin Peaks
• Movie: The Matrix

This started happening to me more and more after I hit my 30s, and it stopped happening once I started taking a daily multivitamin.

Deadly Towers.

This game is awful

Sure, but an average user is not going to know to check for the URL protocol. It’s still incredibly effective for phishing

You’ve got half of it. The hacker’s server is acting as a middleman for the real login page. Everything appears legitimate except the URL will be wrong and if you use a password manager, it won’t auto-fill

They access the legit login page and forward it to you, but they’re in the middle capturing everything you send.

When you enter your login details, they will record them and then forward them to the real login window in near real time, effectively logging in as you. They then have a legitimate session token which they can use to access your account without needing to re-authenticate.

An attack using this tool does require that the user actually logs in, but because they’re just acting as a proxy for the real login page, the only way you’d spot the difference is if the URL doesn’t match (or that your password manager doesn’t auto-fill)

However, it’s pretty easy to see that someone would be fooled by that as you’d expect to need to confirm your identity when adding a gift card to your steam account.

Typically, with scams like this, the attacker is using a tool like Evilginx.

The way this works is that Evilginx runs on a server that the hacker controls and will request the login page from whatever service they are targeting(Discord, Steam, Google, etc) and then serve it to you as a proxy. It looks entirely legitimate unless you make sure to very closely check the URL.

Once you login, it will take a copy of your Username, your password, and your session token(the thing that lets Discord know it’s you so you don’t need to login again after every refresh). and suddenly the attackers now have access to your account to do whatever they want with it.

Discord should absolutely prevent modifying links in this way specifically for this reason, but good practice as a user is to hover over every link and make sure it’s pointing where it’s supposed to. Don’t click on anything that looks suspicious.

My certs have all expired, but when I started I didnt have any at all.

The thing that worked for me was to apply to small businesses(Look into local MSPs). Places that have ~20 employees have much less rigor about certs and will more likely test that you’re amicable enough to mesh with the rest of the team. From there you can build experience and often get thr company to pay for your certs.

Not at all.

Unsolicited email is spam. It’s as simple as that. Dont feel bad about flagging them as such if they won’t respect your contact preferences.
