@NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip was trying to ask, why did you put it on the network at all, if you have agreed to it being stupid

but he could probably have just installed frigate as a home assistant addon

lets demonstrate why. Because I would alter the structure of your atoms, and that would not be criminal, because why would it be. I would alter the structure in a very specific way, but that’s not a crime.

like I said,

good. get back to me once people are using light switches to store data.

in practice. on the daily.

you are trolling. I’m out.

“found a way” it is a feature, you can set it up in the settings. there is not much figuring out in that. but if you turn that on, and your phone legitimately gets stolen, now the thief can sell it for good money, because it is still usable. there is no easy toggle for that in the settings.

I already considered that, and for an untrusted website I already don’t trust the content or the scripts. So it doesn’t matter if it was modified or not, it’s still untrusted.

but then why are you reading it? is it cat photos and cooking recipes only? or does it have articles about pricey things you could buy, news, life improvement tips, car and other thing repair docs/advice?

thats what the economics textbook says, but it also says that all parties in the economy are perfectly rational. however this is not the reality. they have tested it, people are already used to the high prices and they have no problem with it, enough of them will buy it anyway. the price drops from completely unaffordable 7x price to barely affordable 4x price, and people are already buying it again. if they aim for 4x price, they only need the quarter of the former sales to make the same profit. and if at 4x price the sales are the quarter of former sales, they could theoretically shut down most factories or production lines to reduce costs and in turn raise profits even more.

sure, people are storing images and passwords on light switches and power strips. you have lost your fucking mind.

good. get back to me once people are using light switches to store data.

I remember reading about some kind of an alternate DNS root servers. they have some unique TLDs (sounds risky though, the possibility of future name clashes). not too popular, but it is being used. I think this is it: https://opennic.org/

but there are more: https://icannwiki.org/Alternative_Roots

though, it will not salvage the .org TLD. such a shame it got to that…

You are a fascist.

whatever. so be it. those persons have lost their humanity. they are doing anything to the detriment of the common people, for the sake of it. we well get nowhere until they can continue what they are doing, guaranteed. no, that’s not even true, we are literally going backwards to the dark ages.

big tech CEOs are not people. they are rats.

I don’t agree, I think there is a difference in likely outcomes. but even without scripts, you don’t want you article’s content (text, images, statements or names) be falsified by an attacker. Unless you are just reading the article to waste time, and magically what you read will not influence your views.

You know that hard drives don’t literally store the number 1 or 0 right? We arbitrarily assign a value to a specific configuration of a material or circuit.

that’s besides the point. hard drives are very commonly used for large scale data storage. that is its intended use, and people are storing legible data on it, in practice. light switches? who the hack stores data on light switches, bit by bit?

this discussion is not productive. you have already decided that destroying user data is a nothingburger.

why would it be cheap, if people would buy it at 4x the normal price?

redlib, then

anything can store data in some abstract sense, I don’t think that is a valid argument here

All you need to do, is allow an electrical signal to control the position of the switch, and you essentially have 1bit of data storage right there.

besides, most light switches cannot do that

If you inspect the generated timer you see the same format in the OnCalendar line.

but without the command

What do you mean by persisted? The service and timer will both be there as long as the timer doesn’t end. Which it won’t in my example.

I mean saved to a file so that it will still be there after reboot

SSL/TLS have very specific benefits. None of which matter that much for reading random articles on the web.

it is a huge benefit if a man in the middle cannot run scripts on your computer.

So I don’t see the problem with this website doing their own thing to bring attention to the potential issues of the current system.

there is no problem with that. this could work, with the required patch to firefox, also in the repo.

then why use DANE. this is just plain old TOFU
