Based on current findings of the investigation, the attack was contained within the Corporate IT environment and there is no evidence that the threat actor gained access to our product environment or customer data.

If it were a company other than TeamViewer I'd probably believe them, but since it's TeamViewer, they could just as easily be lying since they have lied in the past about breaches IIRC.

Not surprising at all.

In other news, GTA Online is awesome! I am definitely not a plant or anything like that, go check out GTA Online!

Or something like that.

lol

I thought this said geeks not greeks and then I got confused. That's wild, in North America some companies are pretending to want 4 day work weeks (like my old one that laid me off last year) and then in Greece they've actually gone ahead and implemented 6 day work weeks. Reminds me of China's 966 except this is actually legal apparently.

Well, now I'm even more glad I got the HPV vaccine (I got the one for 9 types), damn.

I always thought it'd be possible that getting HPV could lead to a penile amputation like maybe in insanely rare cases, but holy fuck that 6500 seems like a large number to think about when you consider that 1 is too many.

ipkpjersi ,

Well that's a word I've never seen before lol

I think these things aren't designed to stop everyone, just most people, non-technical people - not people like us who know how to work around limitations etc.

It still sucks though, and it's a stupid idea.

Weirdly enough, I could never get my DS4/PS4 controller working on Linux, at least through Bluetooth. The device never shows up in the device list. My Xbox Series X and Xbox One X controllers work perfectly with Bluetooth thanks to xpadneo, and I can use my DS4/PS4 controller wired with or without ds4drv, but I just can't get it to work wirelessly.

ipkpjersi ,

I'm on Ubuntu 22.04, kernel 6.5.0-41-generic so it shouldn't be that. Maybe my Bluetooth adapter isn't that great but it's a TP-Link UB400 so it's not exactly a low quality Bluetooth adapter either.

ipkpjersi ,

I actually have two PS4 controllers, one older one and one with the light bar. Both of them are unable to connect via Bluetooth.

I don't have hid_sony or hid_playstation loaded, I tried manually loading them and I think that works but: https://i.imgur.com/VHbtW5l.png even though they show as loaded, I still experience the same problem: https://i.imgur.com/Z42WtKr.png I only have a bunch of unnamed devices when searching for new devices to connect to/pair with, and I can't pair with any of them. My headphones and Xbox Series X controller work perfectly.

ipkpjersi ,

They are both loaded because I tried manually loading just one, and then it didn't help, so then I tried the other.

I can't pair mine with my computer, it doesn't even show up in the device list. The modules do not show up unless I manually load them.

I already have steam-devices installed.

I really don't feel like I am doing anything wrong, but maybe I am.

Keep in mind it works just fine wired, so yeah maybe the Bluetooth adapter I have is just not compatible with the PS4 controller.

If you save it on your computer instead of on their servers, how could they possibly be expected to analyze your data? Come on now, be reasonable!

ipkpjersi ,

Sure but it still requires trusting them when they pinky promise they won't send any recall data. Fuck them tbh. It just makes me feel even more right about my decision to switch to Linux years ago.

ipkpjersi ,

I'm glad I'm starting to get to be old enough to be exempt for any mandatory national service but damn if that wouldn't make this country worse overall.

I'm not so sure the blame should solely be placed on the developers - unless you're using that term colloquially.

Netanyahu says deadly Israeli strike in Rafah was the result of a 'tragic mistake' ( apnews.com )

TEL AVIV, Israel (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Monday that a “tragic mistake” was made in an Israeli strike in the southern Gaza city of Rafah that set fire to a camp housing displaced Palestinians and, according to local officials, killed at least 45 people....

He considers it a tragic mistake that he got caught, not that it happened.

I hate how when trying to add a song to my playlist not knowing if I already have it in my playlist, Spotify web UI sometimes successfully detects duplicate songs but most of the time doesn't. It's very inconsistent and I can't figure out why other than them maybe A/B testing features?

Follow the 3-2-1 rule for your important data, ideally 4-3-2 or better. Remember, if you only have one copy of your data, you actually have zero copies of your data.

I think it's a pretty accurate drawing, seems like art to me.

Toronto and Boston would be funny as hell LOL

YouTube is getting particularly bad about this to, unfortunately. They need to do more to remove harmful misinformation, but they don't care because it won't make them money.

ipkpjersi ,

The unfortunate thing is a lot of people won't remove it from their recommendations and will watch it, and the worse thing is there's actually even worse content than those you listed, it's awful.

ipkpjersi ,

Honestly I prefer having an account specifically so I can filter out the garbage fake harmful dangerous content so I don't have to see it.

‘My whole library is wiped out’: what it means to own movies and TV in the age of streaming services ( www.theguardian.com )

*What rights do you have to the digital movies, TV shows and music you buy online? That question was on the minds of Telstra TV Box Office customers this month after the company announced it would shut down the service in June. Customers were told that unless they moved over to another service, Fetch, they would no longer be...

That's why I'm always interested in self-hosting. I have my own Plex and Jellyfin seedbox server for the private trackers I'm in, with a VPS hosting an OpenVPN to make it look like I'm in a different country, just to make it that much safer. It works damn well.

ipkpjersi ,

Yep, we are what make these sites important.

They can just mandate RTO without actually calling it a layoff and know many workers will outright quit, and the business won’t have to comply with whatever local regulations are in place around layoffs.

It depends on where you live. In some countries, if they mandate RTO but your employment contract does not specify that you must work in an office, then that's a constructive dismissal and you can go on employment benefits like unemployment insurance.

ipkpjersi ,

You're not wrong and I'm shocked this hasn't been shut down yet. Not to mention, the Nintendo 64 has been discontinued for years, but I have a feeling that won't stop Nintendo.

ipkpjersi ,

But it's just the playtest that is free, not the actual game itself? If they are giving the playtest AND the actual game for free then yeah that makes more sense, but otherwise I think it would likely be considered unconscionable for playtest access to mean they can't criticize the full game they (eventually) paid for, and thus it would likely be unenforceable.

I think the idea is that she could be arbitrarily detained in China whereas that sort of thing is typically seen as less likely in the west.

First a nearly unprecedented world-wide pandemic followed almost immediately by record-breaking layoffs then AI taking over the world, man it is really not a good time to start out as a newer developer. I feel so fortunate that I started working full-time as a developer nearly a decade ago.

ipkpjersi ,

I think it depends on where you live. Hiring didn't go crazy where I live, but the layoffs afterwards sure did.

ipkpjersi ,

I find it ironic that they claim any sleight against them to be antisemitic.

It's because it's the easiest thing they can do. If you claim someone is racist, everyone will (usually) automatically believe you.

ipkpjersi ,

As a full stack developer (more experienced in back end) working on a full stack task at work I can confirm, yes, this is very true lmao.

ipkpjersi ,

I feel like development of Lemmy has slowed the past few weeks too. I've been following plenty of issues on GitHub both on the front-end and back-end, and there just hasn't been any progress on them. It's a shame because Lemmy has so much potential, but I'm with you I just don't think it will take off. With that said, obviously I will keep using it, and I'm not going back to reddit. It's a shame because I really do miss the smaller niche communities on reddit but reddit is dead to me now because the CEO is really quite the dickhead and I refuse to go back.

ipkpjersi ,

This is true but aren't the two main Lemmy devs paid to work on this full-time? That's something at least, it's better than being truly unpaid to work on this.
