Dell warns of data breach, 49 million customers allegedly affected
  • It's only minor if the data points in this breach are used by themselves.
    Once you aggregate this with other data breaches, you could end up with a much bigger capability to target anyone in this breach.

  • Change your Steam review
  • Wait, is it possible to publish a PlayStation game without going through Sony? They own that particular platform, and I have no info on if they allow third party publishers or not.

  • Counterattack
  • I've always envisioned such a device to be structured like window slat blinds.
    The slats lay horizontal when not in use to minimize view obstruction, and rotate into position on command.

  • Should I remove the earthworm from my indoor potted plant?

    It seems the compost I used was more lively than anticipated. There's an earthworm crawling around in there. It's a decent 12 inch pot, but it's still effectively a limited environment. So I'm not sure if I should leave him in or take him out.

    UPDATE: alright. I'll keep him in, cross my fingers, and hope I've pulled in enough of an ecosystem to both sustain him for his expected lifespan, and safely handle the subsequent death and decomposition.

    Trying something a bit more unusual for the office: a Calamondin orange

    It's going to be a while, but I have high hopes for this one. I transplanted it a few days ago into some augmented Mel's mix soil, and just kept it moist before bringing it in.

    Looks like the compost had a few hitchhikers in it too. I'm tempted to leave them in for some extra green, depending on what they look like later.

    Recommendations for boots, Male with flat feet
  • I've got a pair of Merrell hiking shoes and some basic heavy duty insoles from Dr. Scholls. My only issue was getting used to the lack of material under the toes, causing them to angle down a bit.

    I recommend starting with the insoles first, see if they provide the support you need. If that doesn't help, I recommend escalating to a doctor. They can provide better shoe recommendations than us randos on Lemmy.

  • The shopping cart is the ultimate litmus test for whether a person is capable of self-governing.

    To return the shopping cart is an easy, convenient task and one which we alll recognize as the correct, appropriate thing to do. The return of the shopping cart is objectively right. There are no situations other than dire emergencies in which a person is not able to return their cart.

    Simultaneously, it is not illegal to abandon your shopping cart. Therefore the shopping cart present itself as the apex example of whether a person will do what is right without being forced to do it. No one will punish you for not retunrning the shopping cart, no one will fine you or kill you for not returning the shopping cart, you gain nothing by returning the shopping cart. You must return the shopping cart out of the goodness of your heart. You must return the shopping cart because it is the right thing to do. Because it is correct.

    A person who is unable to do this is no better than an animal, an absolute savage who can only be made to do what is right by threatening them with a law and the force that stands behind it.

    The shopping cart is what determines whether a person is a good or bad member of society.

  • Windows is a service...

    No, you're an Operating System. If you were a service, I'd be going into task manager, killing your process, and setting the service startup mode to Disabled.

    Windows 10 will start pushing users to use Microsoft accounts. How to turn it off.
  • Knock it off, Microsoft. You're not my buddy, you're an OS. Your job is to sit down, shut up, and run the programs I choose. That's it.
    If I find a function that's useful for more than a week, I might make a batch file for it. Until then, you're spare code.

  • How do you guys grind your coffee?

    I just retrofitted my basic hand crank mill with a 10mm nut, and drove it with a drill. It's so much faster now, but I do wonder if there's actual properly motorized versions of what I just did.

    There's nothing quite like the smell of freshly cooked Windex birb.
