727·2 years agoI’m not an anti-car person. I also understand that we live in the world we are presented with, and there is a significant systemic oil culture that is difficult and expensive to not consume. I just thought this photo was a little ironic.

3·2 years agoLCD monitors don’t flicker at their refresh rate. It simply updates the graphics on the panel per frame at an imperceptible speed. The backlight has nothing to do with the refresh, either.

There’s a bunch more content here:
What do you mean by “tracked and registered?” What is your goal for “securing even more?”
MAC addresses are visible to anyone sniffing traffic for a wireless LAN, even if they haven’t joined your network. If you are having anonymous folks join your network and you’re granting them access based on MAC addresses, then you could consider this a security risk. They can sniff a MAC, spoof it, and join your network.
Two devices with the same MAC address may cause some routing issues, but it will likely work well enough to have privileged access and be a bad actor. Plus, there are tools that can spoof a network disconnect request as your access point to temporarily kick off the legitimate client.
The easiest way to handle this would be to host two access points. You can typically serve both with one physical piece of hardware. One would be for your private stuff, and you can pretty much give it a full-trust model. Join the network, get the privileges. The other would be for guests. Join that, and you just get Internet access. You can separate these networks with VLANs to achieve this.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is there an artist whose work you love but was a shitty person?English
71·2 years agoBilly attempted to sell an Alesis SR-16 that was used in his band for $30k. It’s a $100 drum machine. He was selling it himself. No charity or anything; he just tried to hyper-inflate a very common drum machine that is still produced because he thought he added that value to it by owning it. That was pretty weird.

Programming@programming.dev•Can one be too dumb for programming?English
271·2 years agoYou’d be surprised how little math is involved in programming that doesn’t require it. A significant majority of programming is simply managing conditionals. For example: “when the door opens, turn on the light.”
Math comes into place when you need it, and hardly ever comes as a surprise. Additionally, solved problems are generally kept in libraries. For example, you don’t need to calculate a sum; simply tell it to calculate a sum for you, because this is a solved problem.
What you’re already running into is called “impostor’s syndrome.” You believe that you are not capable of something to some degree, even though reality says otherwise. You haven’t tried your hand at programming, so why worry now? You’re inventing problems for yourself before you even got a chance to start.
Just go for it and see what you think. If you don’t enjoy it, no biggie. If you do enjoy it, keep going. No obligations 👌

1286·2 years agoFreedom of speech doesn’t mean that you are obligated to host a platform so shitty people can use it to share shitty ideals. It simply means that you won’t get arrested on a federal level.
Websites can do whatever they want, including deciding that they don’t want to be a platform for hate speech. If people are seeking a place for this conversation genre to happen, and they want it enough, they can run their own website.
Imagine if you invited a friend of a friend over, and they were sharing nasty ideals at your Christmas party. And they brought their friends. Are you just going to sit there and let them turn your dinner into a political rally? No, you’re going to kick them out. It’s your dinner, like it is your website. If you don’t kick them out, then at some level, you’re aligning with them.






That’s mean 😐
