Light theme on desktop needs more contrast.
  • It remains on light theme.

    Edit: I am very silly and was forgetting to hit save. The fact that it was persisting in that tab when I navigated away, despite not having saved, gave me the mistaken impression that I didn't need to save.

  • Anybody using a framework laptop?
  • You can indeed run Minecraft on Linux. In my opinion, it's even easier than running it on Windows, since you can use your package manager to install openjdk instead of fishing around Oracle's website to get the Java 17 graphical installer. I use Prism, which is a 3rd party launcher, and I'm loving the experience.

  • YouTube looks to be testing server-side ad injection to counter ad blockers
  • The deciding factor for me is how little of the money goes to creators, and how arbitrarily Google twiddles the content guidelines. If I'm going to pay a subscription for the category of content on YouTube, I'll pay for Nebula and Dropout so that I know my money is actually making it to the people I like.

    Welcome!

    Welcome to physec@lemmy.blahaj.zone! This community was created to replace r/physec, which has permanently gone dark since 12 June 2023 in protest of Reddit's API pricing change.

    As our title indicates, we're here to talk about physical security (keeping physical objects and spaces secure from people not authorized to be in them) and physical penetration testing (learning how malicious parties exploit weaknesses in physical security, and having trustworthy people use those methods against physical security systems to improve those systems). This includes the development of individual skills; security equipment, systems, and practices; and the wider industry as a whole.

    Please ask meta questions about this community in the comments of this post.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Aren't you just teaching people how to do crime?

    > Rogues are very keen in their profession, and know already much more than we can teach them. > — Alfred Charles Hobbs

    Criminals already know to do crime. They don't need our help. We need to understand how criminals break in so that we can develop effective countermeasures. Security research is necessary to uncover vulnerabilities that manufactures have missed or willingly ignore. Too often is "security through obscurity" used as an excuse for hiding problems instead of fixing them.

    How do I get a job in physical pentesting?

    Great question. We'll let you know if we figure it out. The industry is small, new, and does not have a well-developed entry pipeline. Career discussion is encouraged here.
