  • I dunno, I found it easier to move my family to JF.

    I made them a bunch of accounts and sent them via signal.

    For my mum I logged in as her and configured everything how she would want.

    I didnt have to explain to anybody that remote stream needs to be unlimited bandwidth for better performance.

    If mum forgets her password I can reset it.

    To log her TV in we used quick connect where I had her enter the 6 digit code on the tv.

    We used SyncPlay to watch a movie together.



  • Its kinda useful for devices where userland is also protected against exfil, like a kiosk or windows lock screen.

    If the bios is hardened, secure boot on, bitlocker on, and windows is locked with a password, you can’t simply take the disk out and manipulate it cause bitlocker with TPM means only that specific hardware profile will decrypt the disk automatically.

    You can’t get to explorer cause the system is locked with windows auth, and you can’t reset the PW cause bitlocker is on, and you cant remove the disk cause the TPM protects against that with bitlocker.

    Its really not perfect, and I’m not advocating for it, but its a decent protection in systems where adding another pin/password isn’t practical.

    Even Microsoft recommends at least also using a pin with bitlocker.












  • Unfortunately a lot of rentals dont have their own laundry, or have to use a shared building laundry.

    At my last place we had to pay 3$ for a wash and 6$ for a dry. Had to use a credit/debit machine to load a card, and the machine was frequently broken, so I’d have to go to another building in the area to reload it, but I’d have to wait for someone to let me tailgate in the lobby.

    Just own it is like saying people should just buy homes or move to a better apt.







  • Holy shit, that’s actually hilarious, I imagine someone would have noticed when their paste/auto type password managers didn’t work

    For those confused, this sounds like instead of making a real website, they spin up a vm, embed a remote desktop tool into their website and have you login through chrome running on their VM, this is sooooo sketch it, its unreal anyone would use this in a public product.

    Imagine if to sign into facebook from an app, you had to go to someone else’s computer, login and save your credentials on their PC, would that be a good idea?
