Might sound like a crazy take, but if you just make sure you (only) do what you want and are clear about your intentions towards him, you should be fine.

If you want to have a drink from some casual company until you leave - do that.

If you want some steamy sexy time for one night and then leave - again, do that.

If you really like the guy and might actually consider some sort of longer relationship - guess what, do that.

Just be clear and honest, towards him and yourself. That way he can decide what he wants from you.

And as all engineers know: assumption is the mother of all f*ck-ups, so avoid those at all cost.

Your local Pirate Party and organizations like Bits of Freedom can help out.

I am in a relationship, but also lonely. I would like someone to share relationship-problems with for when they occur every once in a while. But it's hard.

Don't believe all the crap you see on TikTok and talk to actual people about their problems. Please.

I also feel that the share of users interested in privacy that actually also use Linux is much bigger than 6%

All I want is my photos as files in my drive. The separate photos section feels like I have no control over those (as well as that I cannot use them on my computer without downloading them manually first).

I do hope there were no kids in that pool

Good to see he was not left alone.

What do you want to chat about?

I don't really want to be filmed everywhere, especially when it's later on broadcasted to the entire world. I want to be able to do stupid stuff without other people knowing.

Still better than using the same password everywhere and/or saving passwords in an unencrypted text file on your computer somewhere.

Just not very user friendly.

That's a nice sausage.

 

Spotted on the Airbnb homepage. It even has animations on hover?! This might have been cool when the first iphone came out, but I really hoped we passed this station a long time ago

 

So my company is investigating whether it's worth it to use ThreatDown (the corporate version of Malwarebytes) for endpoint-protection.

However, recently (October 9th) a critical vulnerability in Firefox was reported by Mozilla: CVE-2024-9680.

The "strange" thing is that there was no mention of this vulnerability in ThreatDown when I checked after the weekend (October 14th):

(screenshot shows issues that ThreatDown did find, sorted from worst to least bad.

Even though the version of Firefox did contain the vulnerability:

And Locize did run several scans on this endpoint in the mean time:

We contacted ThreatDown about this and the next day the vulnerability suddenly shows up in ThreatDown:

To me it feels like we had to notify ThreatDown about the vulnerability, instead of them notifying us, which is the exact opposite of what we are paying them for, right?

Is this a strange conclusion? What is your experience with them? Any other comments/ideas/things we are missing?

 

I just got a PS3 because I never had enough money for it when I was younger and it is quite affordable nowadays. I started playing a first few games, but I noticed I really like multiplayer games the most.

However, I only found a few people in a Battlefield 4 server yesterday. What other games would you suggest me getting that I can still play online?

Is there any football game that's still alive for instance?
