On a scale from terminator 1 to terminator 2, how industrial-punk do you rate this image?

warmaster , to nostupidquestions in Are smart door locks more or less secure than traditional door locks?

More ways to open is leds secure than leds ways to open. That said if you have an unsecured window, then that is the weakest link of the chain.

DirigibleProtein , to nostupidquestions in Are smart door locks more or less secure than traditional door locks?

Yes

How bad some of the “secure” backup locks are or the failsafe mechanics of those or even just the software of not even cheap products are most of the time real bad and just adds more fail points.

I have august door locks, from the outside you wouldnt know its there. They eat up batteries frequently.

How easily could the Flipper Zero hack a smart lock? I’m guessing relatively easily.

lilShalom ,

If its using a wireless frequency , probably.

Not at all. It’s not like they’re just listening for a dumb radio signal, they use crypto.

I still have one laptop running Windows 7 because it has some software I like to use that can’t be installed on later versions.

Very clean, I love the colors. Why sway over i3?

squid OP ,

Ah thank you, the accent colors are my favourites and i3 or sway, my first proper go with Linux I had x11 and irc my system died and the readout was related to x11, I should imagine looking back that it was user error but at the time I figured I’d go with sway. I’ve had plenty of systems die since although I’m more equipped to fix the issue I may or may not of caused :3

LeFantome ,

I imagine the answer is Wayland over X11

EatMyPixelDust , to technology in How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10

As others have said, there’s going to be some registry setting you can change to negate this. Short term, this should work, but may need to be repeated if any updates revert the change.

The long term solution is to just stop using Windows, because it’s clear Microsoft is intent on turning it into a bloated, ad-infested piece of trash.

Windows 7 (or arguably XP) was the last decent version of Windows, in my opinion. Once I saw what was coming next, I started dabbling in Linux. Now I use Linux most of the time. It’s definitely a big change, and there’s a lot of new stuff to learn, but I love having an operating system that doesn’t look like a corporate junk mailer pamphlet.

I forget the name of it, but I remember there is (or at least used to be) a tool that would give you more granular control over the stuff that’s under the hood of Windows.

If you search for “Windows God mode tool” or something along those lines, your should be able to find it.

Not sure if this will get rid of your pop-up modal specifically, but it might allow you to mess with other configurations that can prevent these sorts of things.

Neat, somehow I missed this feature up til now, thanks for the heads up!

Cute ears! I wonder where they’re from.

InvaderDJ , to technology in How do i stop this kind of pop up from ever appearing again? Win10

Where/when does this popup come up? Is it in your browser, is it a Windows notification?

The most recent time I think I saw this was the latest Windows 11 update, but you can just click No and it goes away. Microsoft is being annoying persistent about getting people to use Bing now because of ChatGPT and Edge though. Hopefully there is a limit, if not the annoying Linux recommendations might actually start to have some merit.
