Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
  • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
  • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
  • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
  • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
  • Β 

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!


    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    Ironic it's a monobank card, it's mobile only and you have to use a locked unrooted googled phone (or an iPhone) because big brother said so.

    Also this https://telegraf.ua/ukr/ukrayina/5935111-gorokhovskogo-chekae-pokarannya-yuristi-rozpovili-chim-dlya-monobank-zakinchitsya-skandal-z-oprilyudnennyam-foto-klientki

    TLDR: some woman did a facial recognition log in method, the bank said that the photos are not stored and deleted instantly, but because there was a Slovenian flag (looked like russian in the photo)in the background, she got her bank account blocked and the CEO posted the verification image online

    Edit: wrong link

    [–] Noja@sopuli.xyz 2 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

    makes you wonder what the CEOs of all those age verification companies are doing with all the photos

    We know that the NSA and probably whoever dedicated enough can potentially access webcams remotely too, and millions of kids now have cameras in their room at all times through their phone or computer.

    I opened an account with starling partly because they have a real webapp, but you have to fucking log in with your phone, which is half the reason I want a webapp: because fetching your phone when you're already at your computer is just a ballache

    Hope that doesn't get too popular, I don't want to have to carry a second phone just to make payments when I can use a much smaller card instead.

    [–] WhoIzDisIz@lemmy.today 2 points 6 hours ago

    Just get this phone - a bit thick, but very pocketable.

    [–] diaphragmwp@discuss.tchncs.de 8 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

    In other news, cash is foldable.

    [–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 2 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

    Good luck folding Β£100 without having a pretty big bulge in your phone case.

    [–] diaphragmwp@discuss.tchncs.de 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

    I don't have british pounds at hand so can't test... Why are you putting valuable stuff next to more valuable stuff, anyway? Like to have everything stolen in one go?

    [–] Korhaka@sopuli.xyz 3 points 5 hours ago (1 children)

    How often are you finding people steal your phone?

    None because I try to avoid bringing it in the first place. It's my 2FA box.

    Nope. The website says "get app" like 4 times. There's a webapp but it's for business stats only (like if you own a cafe). They are just trying to "appeal to the younger generation", and one part of that is the app that spams emojis everywhere. Another part of that is furry stickers ("qr cat") believe it or not; in physical, Telegram and Viber because everything in this damn country is held together by Telegram and Viber.

    Nope, the point of this bank is that it's mobile only. No offices, no webapp.
