Online bank One Finance removed my account's password in favor of _only_ phone/email OTP and a 4 digit pin
How is this legal? This has to be the most insecure login method I’ve ever seen. They removed the password from my account without consent and have no way to go back to requiring a password. Literally all an attacker has to do it gain control of either my phone/email and brute force a 4 digit pin. I’m going to have to change...
Launching Heroic Games Launcher brings down my network
Weirdest damn thing, occasionally my network connectivity was being lost. Not the wifi signal, but just the route to the internet. I finally realized today it happens whenever I do a fresh boot (i.e. first time after system boot) of Heroic Games Launcher....
FFvii remake
This game is about to be 4 years old but i finally got around to playing it. I am floored by this game, i couldn’t put it down. I love the new combat style, the cut scenes are great how they just roll straight from the gameplay and back. The music, holy shit, the music. Every track is a banger and makes the fights and story...
Jellico and Riker didn't get along. Who's fault was that?
Jellico’s reputation for being an ass goes beyond the hull of the Enterprise, hence Mariner’s comment about being assigned a “Jellico-type” captain. But every time I watch “Chain of Command,” sometimes it’s hard to tell of Geordi, Riker and Troi aren’t being a bunch of unprofessional softies....
I'm trying to run simple64 in Linux Mint but I'm getting error messages that I don't know how to fix.
Edit: I’m no longer looking for help with this. The issue seems to be with the app itself and I have submitted a bug report for the app on github....
Looking for a sci-fi book
Could I get a few suggestions? I am looking for a sci-fi dystopian future from the perspective of a corpo.
Protons inside, electrons outside. But why not the other way around?
Every time I try to understand how forces which hold atoms and molecules together work, I find myself wanting to ask this question: why not the other way around? Could there be an atom which has electrons and neutrons inside, and protons outside?...

I’ve delayed making the transition to a fully “secure” set up until upgrading my PC and moving to a Linux distro from windows. now that that is happening and my parts are in the mail, what does the Lemmy community recommend for my personal network data to remain as eyes free as possible from potential hostile gov & non gov...
Videos buffer a lot on LibreTube
I switched from the YouTube app to LibreTube on my android phone, but it’s buffering most of the videos so much that I can’t use it. The same videos work just fine on the YouTube app. Any suggestions what I could do to improve it?
I wish messaging apps of same type were federated.
I wouldn’t mind if EU made it mandatory for them to be. I really hate that I have to use Whatsapp because it’s the sole way I can stay in touch with people I must be able to contact....

Recommendation of lightweight drawing application for math lectures?
I have used obsidian and excallidraw for my note taking, especially excallidraw for math where I draw with my tablet. But since I started using emacs for programing I would like to move to org roam for school notes. However, I have not found a good alternative program for obsidians excallidraw plugin (I find gimp a bit to big...
Cloud storage solution?
Hey Lemmy, what do you recommend for cloud backup? OneDrive is now locking me out due to apparently breaking their terms of service, so it’s just the push I need to find something else....
Self hosted NAS + Lightweight Game Streaming Solution?
I have an aging gaming desktop with a GTX 970 that I’ve previously used to let friends/family stream games. My area has a lot of fiber so it’s surprisingly usable, even got VR working. Problem is, I’d prefer to use it as a NAS most the time as it has plenty of drive bays and I need somewhere better to run jellyfin than my...

Is there a command like tldr for linux folder heirarchy?
I’m kinda a newbie to linux (…going on 20 years now, slow learner). I recently came across tldr and don’t know how I lived without it, because man pages can be a little much for a non technical person....
Controlling and monitoring computers (Windows, Linux) from Home Assistant?
There does not seem to exist like a single, complete solution for this that everyone agrees is the way to go… or maybe I did not look hard enough....
How can modern video/audio codecs such as AV1 and Opus deliver high quality at lower bitrates?
I’ve always known that AV1 and Opus are more efficient than HEVC/VP9 and MP3/Vorbis, but exactly how is this achieved? Is it just a matter of more efficient compression?
Saving Spotify Playlists
I’m planning on using Zotify to download a couple playlists of music I’ve added over the years. Before I do that, I’d like to be able to make a copy of the playlists before downloading any music in the off chance my account gets flagged by Spotify....
What's the equivalent of physics constants for social studies?
In physics, it’s common to develop a formula and then stick a constant to explain the unknown. For example, Newton’s theory of gravity uses the gravitational constant G on the formula F = G * m_1 * m_2 / r^2, later on Einstein gave a more accurate explanation with the theory of relativity which does not rely on a constant E...
