I read the headline and thought this was The Onion at first :(

Isn’t that just the plot of Shadowrun? :P

Nice to see some NB representation in the pants shitting community.

Usually the scroll wheel moves the viewpoint, not the content. I.e. Scrolling the top of the wheel towards yourself (“down”) moves the viewpoint down the page, making the content appear to move up.

I’m a 3rd other thing. I only have fake accounts, no main.

I wonder what I did to deserve not being on the list… :P

I think Souls games went too far tho. If we stayed at DS1 level that’d be one thing, but the Elden Ring DLC just went stupid with it.

Me scrolling past this good advice at 2am

Yeah, I have 96gb and I still assign a zram swap, just in case. I also have a zram tmp, and a zram for my portage compilation dir (I use Gentoo). The latter gets the most use.

This is funnier than it is. :)

Oh yeah, this game. Had some kind of memory leak last I played it. Fun tho!

Wait you mean this hasn’t been obvious to everyone for decades?

Actually, that’s Australian slang. Or at least, we use it too.

Though mostly if we’re being impolite it’s just “yank”.

DID they? How do we know?

I think I was thinking of situations where the wifi owner redirects you to their impersonation site with their own cert, but a normal browser will pop up a big warning about that. Also if the site properly uses HSTS and you’ve been there on that machine before, then you’re protected from being directed to a http impersonation site. A VPN will protect you from both (assuming the VPN us trustworthy), but if you’re savvy you don’t need it. But then the type of person who needs the kind of simplified explanation for “why VPN” that you get in ads is not savvy.

And annexing parts of it, bringing “Russia” closer to NATO’s border…

No, I’m definitely talking about https. Could be this is no longer a thing tho, I need to look it up.

I’m under the impression https can be defeated by a man-in-the-middle attack if you’re not paying attention. Haven’t looked into it recently to be sure if that’s still the case or a solved issue, though. But that was one reason to use a VPN while on untrusted wifi, supposedly.

Your toes do have toetips, just nobody gives a shit about them.
