Chances are the exchange was still more productive than with the real one.

Solar panels are a dystopian nightmare, the nuclear energy sector told me so.

But how am I going to be hyperbombarded with ads during my favourite match of “Who’s The Best At Cheating”? Having to use an offshore DNS resolver just doesn’t feel right.

No they don’t “completely scan your phone”. They’re doing plenty of awful stuff though. Why rely on hearsay and “small hints” if you can be scared based on facts? Here’s a starting point: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flock_Safety#Controversies

The only way for this comment to be more German would be if it came laminated.

The EFF provides pretty sound advice, see the 2nd link in my initial comment.

One way of helping would be to tell people how to mitigate it. Telling them it’s impossible does the exact opposite.

Gotta love a call for contribution that makes you want to paint your face blue and attack Adobe with a sword lmao

They say it here, but I disagree. Fingerprinting is difficult to prevent but not impossible. Same thing as with malware: You’ll never be 100% protected from malware, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t take precautions against it, does it?

Here’s one way of testing how unique your fingerprint is.

“Eat my shorts”

Booting a live USB and reinstalling GRUB as follows has saved my butt in the past. Obviously replace the /dev/sdXY paths with your own. Further adjustments might be needed depending on your system.

# mount root partition:
sudo mount /dev/sdXY2 /mnt
# mount boot partition (if there is any)
sudo mount /dev/sdXY3 /mnt/boot
# mount efi partition (if there is any)
sudo mount /dev/sdXY1 /mnt/boot/efi
# mount other partitions:
for dir in /dev /dev/pts /proc /sys /sys/firmware/efi/efivars /run; do sudo mount --bind $dir /mnt$dir; done  
# chroot into mounted system:
sudo chroot /mnt /bin/bash -i 
# reinstall grub:
grub-install 
# rebuild grub.cfg:
update-grub 
# rebuild initramfs (not sure if necessary):
update-initramfs -u
# sync, exit chroot, reboot:
sync
exit
sudo reboot

Where does the [12] link point to?

Presumably they didn’t like how you used the meme format. Surprise Pikachu is usually about someone who’s surprised by something particularly predictable and obvious.

Just bin that Football Pitch Gnome already

Welcome to Lemmy :), you’ll fit right in lmao

Nice specs, nice setup. You might want to add another rainbow sticker or two, just in case :p

Using an officially supported secondary app store and calling it a Play Integrity bypass seems like a bit of a stretch.

GOG Galaxy is like Steam but for GOG games, in case anyone else was wondering.
