Here's how Android 15's Failed Authentication Lock protects your sensitive data from thieves in c/android@lemdro.id

[–] brisk@aussie.zone 7 points 10 months ago

If I read that right, the normal way. It's not a special lock, just the normal lock screen. The use case seems to be addressing the idea of your phone being snatched while unlocked, and then attempted brute forcing into apps with sensitive data pin/biometric locks

What thing called turtle are you referring to?

You would be giving up some feed-rate control and retraction. Probably not too bad with certain materials and large scale prints, but I'd be surprised if you could do anything moderately precise with this.

Note to studios: there is no amount of potential, unrealised profit that makes it ethical to install malware on another person's computer.

Cards Against Humanity Offers Cash for Apologies from Dem-Leaning Voters who Didn't Vote in 2020 Election in c/politics@beehaw.org

Love this

Is there some way I can force Elon Musk to pay $47 to Cards Against Humanity PAC?

Funny you should ask! If you’re a registered voter in PA, GA, NV, AZ, NC, WI, or MI, just type your name into this dumb website for his PAC, put “MuskIsDumb@cah.lol” as your referrer, and they'll be legally obligated to pay us $47. The more people who do this, the more Musk money we’ll get to un-fuck America.

If he doesn’t pay up, we’ll sue him again.

This is a standard way to draw geometric proofs, it's not at all unreasonable to assume straight lines alongside unrepresentative angles. It's certainly still an assumption, but a conventional one.
