If Lemmy could up its porn game, reddit would just be bots saying catchy things to each other.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was hacking like in the '80s and '90s?
5·1 month agoI met Captain Crunch around 2012, really nice and still insanely curious about phone systems.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What was hacking like in the '80s and '90s?
10·1 month agoTarget sent credit card information to the back of the store unencrypted. Bluetooth didn’t need encryption because nobody can get that close. You could stop 50% of malware by changing the name of your windows directory. Security through obscurity was believed to work, every automated oil rig in the gulf was operating in the clear even into the 2000’s.
Wild times.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What's an example of something that usually goes unnoticed when done well but very noticeable when done poorly or not done at all?
2·1 month agoSince 9/11 they’re generally locked off from the public in the US. I attended some mass casualty and terrorism training and we talked with someone who ran their city water and sewer. He had a neat plan to radiate the city water system he helped them defend against.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•do you remember a time when societies were so polarized and shifted so much to the right like today? How long did it last?
4·2 months agoThat can’t even be stupidity, no one is that stupid. I’m a 90’s conservative and give me a middle of the road democrat every day.
Edit: click on his name! I don’t feel bad for this guy, but I would like to offer pity to the local ubereats drivers.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•So...how the fuck do I trust *anything*?
1·2 months agoHey there, fellow Livermoore fan.
What if you wanted to program your toasting levels on your smart toaster, but didn’t want to cross the kitchen?

3DPrinting@lemmy.world•Ender 3 V2 Causing Circuit Breaker to Trip (Even when PSU is flipped off!)English
3·2 months agoNo, large inductive loads can cause a trip. The sensor is only measuring 0.006A missing between the hot and neutral, windings can delay the neutral output.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What D&D alignment would my character(s) be?
11·2 months agoLawful evil or chaotic evil, depending on if that behavior is allowed in that society.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•How does the Chinese government even work
113·2 months agoImagine China as a company. There is a board of directors, and Xi is the head of that board. The board runs a lot of lower ranking boards that control all the aspects of government operation.
Have a problem with your plumbing? Go to your local province or city board. A whole region experiencing drought? The regional board has an action plan that they impose on the local boards to implement with government regional help. Xi is responsible for steering the overarching policy of China moving forward as a country. His role is to say “make China control the South China Sea and receive deference from those countries” to the military, and then it’s their problem to figure out how to harass shipping.
You get promoted to higher boards for good work, and the board votes for its leader. Read Xi’s promotion history. I would die after that many years of office politics, myself.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•how do school shooters know how to use guns?
2·2 months agoGlad to hear you doing this. My daughter refuses to learn, but I keep telling her it’s so when the dumb boy pulls out a gun at a party, she can ask to see it, and clear the chamber, take the clip, safe it, and hand it (minus the clip) back.

Star Wars Memes@lemmy.world•Rough Side of the Force.English
2·2 months agoI know! Or as a president even, when a twelve year old is just fine.
Make sure to only click on the men… not the women, and the children too.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do you think conservatives feel the same need to burn it all down when charlie kirk died as everyone else felt when trump won again?
2·2 months agoRepublicans aren’t conservatives since the tea party.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What do you think about the concept of lesser evil? (i.e. when faced with selecting from two immoral options, the less immoral one should be chosen.)
11·2 months agoInaction that causes a harm is an action. Say for example you’re a muslim that doesn’t vote for a female candidate because you feel she doesn’t do enough to help your people. If the other candidate actively allows great harm to your people, you failing to vote for the female candidate is helping empower the harm on your people.
I just hope we never see this example in real life.
Oh man, Rush. I vaguely remember his downfall from painkiller addiction, and he was some sort of radio pundit.


Well once you’re lemmy famous, you can do anything.
