Holy fuck you’re not thinking at all? If someone is breaking into your home, you’re in danger.

Or do you want everyone to be obligated to go over and check on the well being of the person first?

“Hey I know you’re busy breaking into my home for an unknown reason, do you need a hand? Some water? Maybe a tic tac? You know what, let me just get that window for you”

No that’s fucking stupid. You have very very obviously lived an extremely sheltered life where you don’t have to worry about your own protection

Jesus you’re pointlessly obtuse

I repeat my point: if someone is trying to break in my window- I’m shooting first and asking questions later

I mean yeah. The thing about carrying a gun gun is that if you use it, you’re going to get arrested, probably. Even if it’s self defense.

If someone is strong enough to break down my door even when they’re starving, I’m gunning them down and asking questions later.

Like your logic doesn’t add up here at all. “If someone is extremely weak but also strong enough to forcibly enter your home”

Nah

This 100% comes down to funding and available talent on a regional level.

The workforce is too adapted to suddenly go back to doing everything on paper without making serious mistakes.

That plus not being able to access data that may only be available digitally for the same reason

Taknow that’a a pretty respectable response to get, I can really hear the frustration from the support guy “yeah man I don’t know it’s broken but it’s not our shit I’m sorry”

Money

Not a bad thing honestly, whats nice about high frequencies is lower penetration. More access points, lower power, overall better signal and less interference. Line-of-sight microwave for covering distance.

Fun stuff

It doesn’t, they operate as two separate logical systems. You can still access your windows drive from your Linux OS, but you aren’t necessarily running anything off of that drive.

I would personally just reinstall everything on the Linux drive.

Honestly just get a second drive

The “provided devices” is the important part of that sentence

My company exclusively deploys machines with physical coverings for the camera and hardware disconnects for the mics.

I agree on that point, nobody has the right to any information about me except for exactly what I choose for them to know. Speaking from an IT professional standpoint, if I deploy a device, I absolutely have the right to know anything that happens on that device. You have to from a security perspective.

That’s why I don’t use any social media on my work laptop. Ideally that’s why social media is blocked on work machines so it’s a non-issue. Kids should understand that concept early, you do have a right to privacy but you also don’t control that device.

We just fundamentally disagree on what rights someone is afforded on a company provided devices. They can’t opt out because obviously not, you don’t get to just opt out of information security policies.

It would be a different beast if the school didn’t allow you access coursework on a personal machine without installing their bullshit, thats a huge issue.

Sooo schools should just provide devices to kids with no monitoring at all?

There shouldn’t be an expectation of privacy on school/company provided devices, that isn’t how it works literally anywhere. It’s on the parents to teach their children not to use the device for personal reasons.

Ideally the school machines should be limited to only allowing coursework and limited messaging between classmates and teachers, it’s a tool not a toy.

Idk I just can’t get upset about this. Kids and privacy is kind of a tough one to begin with, I personally think kids shouldn’t have unregulated access to communication devices at all until like 14-15, maybe.

Don’t put personal shit on work devices. This is pretty basic.

”Millions of students across the country don’t have to imagine this deep surveillance of their most private communications: it’s a reality that comes with their school districts’ decision to install AI-powered monitoring software such as Gaggle and GoGuardian on students’ school-issued machines and accounts”

So the big issue with this is that they shouldn’t have private communications on their school laptops anyway. It’s the exact same thing with companies not wanting you to use their provided devices for personal reasons.

They own the device, you’re borrowing it, assume it’s compromised on every level and keep any communication that matters on your own devices.

My local sports bar has a sign that says “free beer tomorrow, false advertising today”

No, because that isn’t Linus’s take.

I think he’s referencing a stream once upon a time where Linus discussed the arguments around streaming and it’s impact on creators, from a creator’s perspective .

But because he uttered something in favor of ads on his videos-which is how they got paid-he’s now considered ultra pro invasive ads by the user above, who professes to not actually watching Linus
