Has Nicole been trying to cheat on me again?

But seriously, sometimes these come from random instances besides the one you've mentioned and I can't see how you could block them outside of playing whack-a-mole due to the nature of how the Fediverse....works.

Maybe instance admins could implement some kinda cool off feature before being able to DM another user, maybe the Lemmy devs could like you're requesting outright allow you to block DM's. Thing is, the spammers then adapt and use other methods to desperately try to get you biting their shite.

I had another yesterday

that didn't show up until I clicked the [obj] placeholder in Boost and eventually did the risky click shit even thou it could've been CSAM ๐Ÿคฌ

So does mean samurai swords too, those decorative ones I have on a three tier mount like these?

Googled what a tanto end is and I'm unsure if it applies to them. Help?

Some of us love seeing dodgy devices and their nooks and crannies. If you wanna share them here, or even over on our TG * where there're many nerds from that region still ;)

You've got me more curious about the device itself and a rough geographical area it was bought in. Care to share?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 month ago

It does when you're sharing nationally classified information with what is a third party, not sanctioned by the administration itself?

[โ€“] [email protected] 0 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

The headquarters are irrelevant.

Is it?

Is that why people trying to protect their privacy use VPN's/DNS resolvers outside of the US jurisdiction such as Mullvad/Quad9 etc?

And as stated by someone else if you're using a personal device with a phone number to share classified information outside of a SCIF, you've got to ask yourself if there's a modicum of "sensibility" in the administration here.

It's like someone else said - I went back and dug a little on old.reddit (RIP r/America) and there's for some reason its "not being shared" and actually, neutered?

Maybe I'm just a sucker for popcorn but it smells like it shit, it usually is ๐Ÿ’ฉ

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

It is absolutely insane, considering they have SCIF devices / rooms but also the option of "not using off the shelf" shit like Signal and using a phone number. But here they are.

Hell, they could even use something like Briar / Matrix / whatever that is decentralised/does not require a phone number unlike Signal but instead they sent emotes, and classified information detrimental to US citizens over a centralised (third party) platform. Literally, insane.

Are we missing an /s here? Signal is headquartered in the US, and here's me pondering if they were actually using Telegram instead. Which would've been pretty apt.

I think at this point I'd be better off trying to use WeChat.....

For a bit of clarity some are not seeing. Google, sanctioned too. Crazy times.

To be fair, it's running at the top of BBC news here in the UK this morning which is kinda weird. They usually dunk stuff like this unless they too have some angle on it.

Why being MDM'ed would make it stolen?

Because companies that have already implemented MDM on a device (which your friend has) will be the first to remove any trace of them on it (data protection/GDPR etc) and if it's being sold still with the credentials of said company (with bonus malware?) you might want to poke around it a little.

As the page above states - someone is in charge of that device still and can manipulate it as per the policies they introduced when locking the phone down to an entity.

tldr: most thieves ask for FRP exploits etc to get around a MDM secured device.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 1 month ago (7 children)

If it's MDM'ed, that 99.99% of the time means it's a stolen device.

Where did they buy it from exactly?

 

Petition to make a wiki page to make a Approved Wiki page of Approved Printers?
