Hosting firm says it lost all customer data after ransomware attack
  • Pretty sure the Amazon vault lock offerings are essentially specific implementations of the broad idea of an immutable backup. Not disagreeing with you here, just saying this might not be an “or” situation.

  • Hyundai Horror Story
  • Unfortunately for me that’s not how it works here, I’m not sure that I disagree with it though. My neighbor wasn’t at fault for an idiot stealing her car and hitting mine so it seems odd to me she’d have to pay for it.

    I will say, I think Hyundai should have some liability for building their modern cars without basic, standard, and inconsequentially cheap security features!

  • Lemmy.world Site Redirects and More Removed
  • I’d just like to say that even with an admin account being compromised (get your shit together @MichelleG (mostly kidding but 2FA fr :P )), lemmy.world still worked well with third party apps, and most importantly: the majority of the fediverse was unimpacted!

  • [IOS17 DB3] visual bug - the garage icon on CarPlay blends with it’s background making it look white.
  • Mine is in dark mode but is still terrible looking — not invisible but washed out.

    That aside, I will say this feature is fantastic, the garage icon doesn’t appear on the Home Screen until you’re in a decent proximity to your home, but still allows you to use it soon enough that your garage is fully open by the time you pull up the drive!

  • 2FA options

    With the potential compromise of a very popular lemmy instance, are there any plans for two-factor authentication options for lemmy server admins/owners?

    Hyundai Horror Story

    A little crosspost from Bimmerpost, I’ve had my f80 for a couple of years and thought I’d share my nightmare from late last year.

    At the time I lived in an apartment building with an optional pay-per-space garage (which is where my car lived). It had at one time a fully closing floor to ceiling gate, but that had unfortunately been out of operation for a couple of years.

    To walk the dogs, my fiancé and I would walk through the garage, out to a common grassy area. One morning she came back from the dog walk and immediately said “Elk…….. I think something happened to your car!”

    I took the elevator down to find the scene in the attached image :(

    The glass was from my neighbor (both in parking and in the building, coincidentally) whose Hyundai was affected by the recent spate of thefts. No transponder, someone stole her car, hit mine backing out, and took it for a joy ride.

    Fortunately, a door replacement and some paint later, everything is wonderful with the car, I was just out the deductible!

    How to rip a dvd (probably also works with cds, etc) on gnu/linux (probably also works on other *nix systems such as macos and openbsd)
  • Out of the box dd will not make a direct/ “exact copy with DRM and all” — DVD drive hardware by specification and design will not read out all bits unless the app communicating with it first authenticates as a trusted app.

    It’ll actually make quite a different, unusable copy! A link with a little more info:

  • PSA: Lemmy votes can be manipulated
  • People are downvoting because 1) the tone is unnecessary and 2) it doesn’t answer the question. Sure, huge businesses spend a lot of money. Over 95 percent of businesses have fewer than 100 employees though and depending on size and sector 1000 a week could be nothing or orders of magnitude larger than a small business’s advertising budget.
