As you mentioned elsewhere it’s encrypted.

Take a look at /etc/crypttab and creating and adding a key file that can unlock the drive.

Essentially your additional SSD will have both a password and a file containing a password that can unlock the drive. When you unlock your root filesystem (I’m guessing at boot) it will then have the key file that can unlock the SSD.

Something like cryptsetup luksAddKey /dev/pathtossd --new-keyfile /etc/newpassword

Systemd might make this easier to setup nowadays.

Edit: Also, yes, the password to unlock your SSD is just sitting in a file in your root drive. Be sure to restrict it to only be readable by root.

I mean this in the nicest way, but your cat would make an excellent replacement for the current governor.

Porter’s advantage is her ability to communicate. I think she could easily convince moderates and Republicans to swing her way.

Up against someone like Harris it would be a tough battle. Harris has the money and is already well established both state and country-wide.

Oh I completely agree. There is a reason it took me a while and careful observation before I figured it out.

I assume it’s part of, or started as, a little password dance. Something like, “abc123DEF”.

Or maybe it just comes from the idea that only a single key can be pressed at a time?

Either way I completely agree, insane.

Also the source is “one user”.

but one user asked their Grandfather – who only get their news from Facebook – what was going on, and the relative echoed conspiracies about moon creatures attacking with brainwaves.

That’s the same level of journalism going on here.

Really hoping for real API access and third-party apps.

I mean that’s the only way it will have any success. I don’t expect it to happen, but that’s historically how any of these sites have grown and flourished.

It would be funny if Digg was able to successfully reboot and take users away from Reddit, however I don’t expect it to actually happen.

Also, stating the obvious, time would be better spent improving Lemmy.

I agree, but it’s more common than you’d think.

I used to work at an organization that used Chromebooks, which replaces the caps lock key with a search key (same shape, different behaviour). I was surprised at the number of people who struggled with their passwords because they would hit the “search” key, enter a single letter, and then hit “search” again. It took me a little while to figure it out because… Who does that?

I’m willing to discuss UI/UX issues but that top comment is just stupid.

The first complaint is that “lemmy.world” shouldn’t exist, because websites should be dot com. That’s not a UI/UX issue, that’s just ignorance. As we all know Bluesky has also failed to pickup any users due to its URL bsky.app, you obviously can’t have a dot app website!

The second argument is worth looking at, but it’s unclear based on their comment what went wrong. If you go to Reddit and search for Brazil/Brasil do you just magically find every community you’re looking for? I doubt it. Discovery can and should be improved but this person found an instance before a community?

The first step is buying devices from reputable vendors and trustworthy resellers to minimize the likelihood of malware being pre-loaded from the factory or while in transit.

Given the size I suspect this is also a common attack vector.

Also,

Android TV devices should have their remote access features disabled if not needed, while taking them offline when not used is also an effective strategy.

Is this a thing? Why would a TV have remote access features?

I mean this game is based on/a sequel to Pokemon Legends Arceus which played differently from all other games in the series.

Additionally, based on the trailer, combat will be changing once again.

That being said, I do expect it to be buggy.

So yeah, I’ll likely be having fun with this game.

A video produced using artificial intelligence (AI) showing President Trump rubbing and kissing Elon Musk’s feet

That’s some poor reporting. How do we know it was AI generated? The footage looks authentic to me.

I’m not sure why Trump would think that, Musk explicitly told him they were doing fine.

Musk is in charge and Donny gets to shitpost on Twitter, is that not what he wanted?

It’s like a repost, but it lets you add your own post to it and shows the original post as a quote bubble.

So like this?

Or like this?

I mean what they can do I’ve said. What I expect is a lot more damage from the Trump administration. Democrats are generally on board with reigning the administration in and/or stopping it, depending on what happens.

Unfortunately the majority for most things sit with Republicans, so it will be slow getting them to respond to Trump. I expect a few Republicans will chime in from time to time, might help stop a few things. Of course Congress lacks the resources to enforce things, so it’ll be interesting to see what happens there.

Eventually Trump is going to go too far. I would argue he already has, but specifically he’s going to go too far for Republicans. The speaker, Johnson, is the one to watch. I think McConnell still has some sway, but he’s also clearly very ill physically. Actually Republicans that are usually quiet are probably the ones to watch first.

Dems have no choice but to confirm her through.

That was the Bernie plan in 2016 & 2020 during the primaries. Clinton had the support of the established Democratic party and with superdelegates Clinton took a commanding lead. Similar situation with Biden, most dropped out before Super Tuesday and endorsed him.

Now both of these instances could be considered “smart politics”. If you’ve got the political maneuvering to win the primary, then maybe you’ve got the same maneuvering to win the general.

It didn’t work out for Clinton. It did work out for Biden.

When we look at our most recent election, it’s clear there was a little bit more of a rift, but Harris was chosen and there was no primary.

Now, some of this is simplified and there is plenty to argue. But suffice to say we can’t just vote for AOC “so much” that she’ll win. I don’t see the Democratic party supporting her.

Now it’s too early to talk about 2028 realistically and a lot can change between now and then, but if she were running today she’d have my vote.

Yes, what congress WILL do versus what they SHOULD do are different things.

If you look at things like the recent Gaza statements by Trump I think it’s clear Trump is going to continuously step over the line and others will need to walk it back. Eventually that someone will be congress, I just hope it’s sooner rather than later, although I fear it will be later rather than sooner.

What do you propose that they do?

Impeach and remove Trump. Yes, a Vance administration might do the same things but Congress would make it clear they’re not willing to allow such bullshit.

Or subpoena Musk and others, which I know recently failed a vote to do exactly that.

Congress CAN do a lot of things, they were designed to be a powerful pillar of government. They have ceded much of that power through inaction over the years but they can take it back.

And reading an article from TechCrunch,

“The social network has a Twitter-like user interface with algorithmic choice, a federated design and community-specific moderation.”

“Is Bluesky decentralized? Yes. Bluesky’s team is developing the decentralized AT Protocol, which Bluesky was built atop.”

“However, the launch of federation will make it work more similarly to Mastodon in that users can pick and choose which servers to join and move their accounts around at will.”

So it definitely is pitching that is it decentralized and federated. Maybe the argument is that it “will be”, but at the moment it is not and at the moment it does not look like it will be an actual possibility.

Now people leaving Twitter is great, don’t get me wrong, but it’s possibly just kicking the can down the road. In a few years we’ll likely have articles complaining about missing “Old Bluesky” and how “new Bluesky” has the exact same problems that “Old Twitter” had.

It’s not even that, it’s someone told you to make a cake, so you talk about how you don’t make cakes, your against making a cake, but you could make a cake if someone really needs you to.

And if your girlfriend does then make a cake, you just start taking credit.

Actions are louder than words.
