What's the most hilarious or ridiculous Wi-Fi network name you've ever seen or created?
(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
It crashed some devices when they scan for WiFi networks (both Linux's network-manager and a Canon Printer at least)

I prefer for it to be just a warning so I can debug without trouble, the build system will just prevent me from completing the pull request with it (and any other warning).

Lemmy, how would you feel about a law that bans radio stations from playing commercials with honking/beeping/siren noises in them?
Here in the Netherlands we already have such law. I can't imagine how bad commercials can be with it. There is no reason except creating shock of confusion for such sound in a commercial and those things are not something you want in a car.

in a general sense, how would you feel about people having their pet dog(s) in the workplace?
Sounds to me like an absolute nightmare, putting many dogs together ensures some of them won’t like each other and will create a bark fest, triggering other dogs to bark too. Dogs might be pack animals, but their pack is with its humans and it will try to protect its pack from other packs

The right FUCKING time to get TWO ram sticks damaged
A lot of ram is under lifetime warranty, check the manifacturer site (usually a serial lookup is enough).

Python is soon to be integrated into excel, I might not be a python fan but if it's gonna replace vba I'm all for it.

The avalanche has begun
While I wholeheartedly support and use linux for gaming, I rather blame this on the attempts of apple to block gaming on a mac as much as possible (removing 32bit support, the switch to ARM and not using established standards like opengl and vulkan but building their own 'metal')

wiggle it until it's the size of a monitor, and if you're brave, it'll take over EVERYTHING.
I love it that KDE didn't limit the growing of it :)

lemmy loop you in: https://infosec.exchange/@ifin/116735279416101129
TL;DR; lots of aur packages got hijacked and install a infostealer, if you updated today/yday, there is a reasonable chance you got hit by it :(
also: the info stealer is installed by aur via npm

Also the reliable income makes them more credit worthy, allowing greater loans from banks and making it possible to grow more.
Tbh it only sucks for the customers

AI will never replace coders
Personally I'm more in the "oh yes please take my job as a programmer" mindset, yet none of the currently available tools seem to be anywhere near capable of it.
When they do, I guess I'll just translate the b.s. customers spit into something that's even humanly readable, just merely distilling the intent often isn't enough. Also A.I. needs to 'learn' to say no, because even though the customer asks for something, doesn't mean they actually want to have the result of their question.

I hate passwords
If there has been a data leak, they might block your current password because the hash has been leaked

Should I follow Mullvad's qBittorrent suggestions? (disable DHT, disable PeX, etc)
the issue is that things like the DHT and PeX can leak your own home ip address, and local peer discovery can leak the torrents you're seeding to local network devices.
Mullvad is very privacy oriented, hence it giving this advice.

We cant fix all the potholes but we might arrest you if you do
the article makes some good points on why not though, also they offer anyone that wants to help to first ask them.
in the end its "their" property that you're trying to fix, with them responsible for it when you do it wrong
