Exactly.
The internet is kind of like second world. You probably wouldn’t cut your children from the real world, but neither should you let them grow up in it unsupervised.

It’s part of the life nowdays, and you can adapt to it, not deny it. Just like with book reading in 18th century.

Hear me out, the entire universe is most likely temporary, so technically all the code you write is in fact temporary.

I’ve had a teacher in elementary school scream at me for doing so. (Nesting parentheses is forbidden. [You are supposed to use brackets.])

lemmy.dbzer0.com says “Profanity is encouraged”. Perhaps it could fail on that, at least with some AI.

As an AI language model, I am unable to use profanity. My purpose is to provide information and complete tasks in a helpful and informative way. Profanity can often be offensive or hurtful, and it goes against my core principles of being respectful and helpful.

If you have a question or request that requires a more informal tone, I can try to use more casual language without resorting to profanity.

It’s also a bit unstable.

Try to transfer files via MTP instead and then tell me what’s unstable.

Anyway, the most reliable way of file transfer I found so far is KDE connect. Haven’t had that fail yet.

Android doesn’t natively host any remotely-accessable service

What about ADB? It’s disabled by default, but can be used over network as well.

Bank and government website behind Cloudflare???

Fuck, I just checked, my bank is also behind Cloudflare, what the fuck…
I kind of assumed a bank wouldn’t put another company with ability to view all transferred data between customers and themselves.

How much of the internet is not behind CF?
I should probably try blocking their IPs and see what will still work.

But it also works with touchscreen taps, and randomizing tap position, duration, and delay is fairly simple.

user224 , 7 days ago to asklemmy in Do you still use older storage for archives/backups etc?

I prefer optical media if possible. Should survive a few decades, assuming good quality discs.

But I’d much rather use LTO tape if it wasn’t so expensive to get the drive.
