bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What topic do you have the most knowledge, and can you explain it so a child can understand it?10·21 days agoElectricity. I’m a field electrician studying the engineering side.
Electricity is all about guiding voltage and current in a preferred direction as to do some form of work, whether it’s producing light, turning a motor, or integrating into logic circuits to make your computer do tricks.
To keep yourself in the clear, don’t touch the shiny bits.
Little of this, little of that
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto Piracy: ꜱᴀɪʟ ᴛʜᴇ ʜɪɢʜ ꜱᴇᴀꜱ@lemmy.dbzer0.com•Amazon Remote Disables Piracy Apps Sideloaded on Fire TV Devices * TorrentFreakEnglish7·22 days agothe first thing I’d do would be login (cause it’s necessary), enable adb, disconnect the internet, block firmware updates, and restrict dns then reconnect to the internet.
You have to realize maybe a small handful of people that own these devices will do any of that. They’ll just plug in and go. Sure they may know how to side load, but they aren’t taking any other preventative measures as you suggest, nor do they have the know-how to do so.
I’d imagine Amazon initiated these via firmware updates that just about anyone would blindly install. The updates probably included scripts to uninstall any “unauthorized” APKs, disable developer options, restore factory system settings, lock the user profile from modifying the system, etc.
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•California energy regulator recommends pause on plan to penalize excess oil profits4·22 days agoI suspect that oil companies have CA over a barrel. Part of what makes fuel in CA so expensive is that CA requires a special blend be sold here, much of which is refined locally. That all said, I suspect that should the state actually impose these fines, the refiners would simply refuse to produce or artificially limit supply, sending prices and CA into a frenzy, the anger of which would be directed at the state. The refiners know this, and therefore the state has limited options to keep the peace.
He’s drinking half and half
I’d love to see humanity collectively rise up and tell the wealthy and powerful where to stick it, but it’s important to remember that some small group of dickheads have been vying for control and domination of everyone else at some point for pretty much the entire existence of humanity. This is merely just the next iteration of that.
But it’d be fucking rad if we could finally break that cycle.

bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•The Army’s not sure what its new ‘Executive Innovation Corps’ will actually doEnglish4·24 days agoSo basically business as usual, just with a fancy title
What’s their reasoning on no window units?
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•Hiding from ICE in LA: After raids and protests, many people in Los Angeles are sheltering in place, fearful of deportation7·25 days agoIt also took quite a while for consequences to appear. It’d really be nice to nip this in the bud now than have to go some 15 years before we can see the light.

bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•US question: Would you approve of your state seceding from the Union, declaring independence from the United States? I think California, Oregon, and Washington would, and probably Colorado too.4·28 days agoIf honestly be curious how that would work out. CA tends to know the value of immigration, and i couldn’t really see them holding a policy of closed borders, at least not in the long run.
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•US question: Would you approve of your state seceding from the Union, declaring independence from the United States? I think California, Oregon, and Washington would, and probably Colorado too.664·28 days agoCalifornian here, bye Felicia. I’m fucking done with my hard earned money going towards ungrateful backwoods idiots that actively hate me, my state, and my neighbors because they’re told to by thuh teevee, yet don’t realize it. I’m done subsiding hatred for the sake of it, because “it’s the right thing to do.” I’m done being at the political whim of people that can’t spell potato. I have a lot of heart for my countrymen, but considering far too many of them hate us for reasons they don’t even understand, I don’t see the point anymore.
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•Prosecutors trying to 'bias' the public against Luigi Mangione, defense says6·28 days agoThe only thing they give a shit about is sending a message that the privileged class is untouchable and not to be messed with. Look no further than how lax they’re treating the guy that popped those Minnesota congresspeople, the rich are in a different league and must be revered as such.
They’re still out in the wild, and still work much of the time.
I just picked up an R36S, and I can’t begin to say how much 80s and 90s nostalgia I’m enjoying.
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•72% of Americans Say the Rich 'Have Too Much' as GOP Pursues Another Handout for Billionaires8·29 days agoThat’s a key thing to remember here. The assholes of the world are still human at the end of the day, and have the same mortality as the rest of us. The only thing they have on any of us individually is access to resources, but as was said, there’s more of us than them, thus why they keep us fighting amongst ourselves.
bobs_monkey@lemm.eeto News@lemmy.world•US Army appoints Palantir, Meta, OpenAI execs as Lt. Colonels7·1 month agoHow would the companies themselves if no one else in the company is enlisted? The way I read it was that these goons are now officers in the Army, and have command authority over anyone beneath their rank, but that doesn’t apply to civilians (yet).
And this is how you end up with multiple freezers lol
