Technology@lemmy.world•Why are people disconnecting or destroying their Ring cameras?English
22·14 days agoI honestly didn’t know what they were thinking with that commercial. Why would you proudly advertise that you’ve built a massive surveillance network
Presumably because most end users are in deep with the “if you do nothing wrong, you have nothing to worry about” crowd … and besides it can find a lost dog /s.
They brought these sorts of intrusive cameras in the first place so privacy was not top of mind, or even in 2nd or 3rd place.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornelia_Rau
Cornelia Rau is a German and Australian citizen who was unlawfully detained for a period of ten months in 2004 and 2005 as part of the Australian Government’s mandatory detention program.
Her detention became the subject of a government inquiry which was later expanded to investigate over 200 other cases of suspected unlawful detention by the Australian government’s Department of Immigration and Multicultural and Indigenous Affairs (DIMIA).
She disappeared from Manly Hospital on 17 March 2004, and, in February 2005, it was revealed that she had been unlawfully detained at Brisbane Women’s Correctional Centre, a prison, and later at Baxter Detention Centre, after being classified as a suspected illegal immigrant or non-citizen by the Immigration Department when she refused to reveal her true identity.

7·1 month agoMaybe people will even learn that the fragmentation isn’t a weakness of linux, but one of its strengths
Maybe but its also super off putting to people looking on from the outside and wju do we need 500 flavours of Debian based distros when interested developers perhaps would be better tasked working om a few projects to inwprove things

Linux@lemmy.ml•Transferring data from Windows to Linux during migrationEnglish
3·2 months agoBuy a new NVME and install whatever distro you’re looking at on that.
Then take our time and sort stuff out. Maybe move it all to the old D drive (which eill not be called D on Linux). Once your happy with that, perhaps format C and use it for backuos ? Assuming you mean two drives ?

Technology@lemmy.world•Infosys co-founder once again calls for longer than 70-hour weeks - and no, he's not jokingEnglish
40·3 months agoPaying someone 70 hours has the same cost as paying two persons 35 hours, right? (In my country technically no, because higher base taxation)
What he wants is to pay one person for 70hrs, the same as he’d pay one person for 35 hrs.





I think it has to do with a recent decision by OO to default save all files in MS format vs an open format ? I saw some post about it on Mastodon. I use LO
