I remember that Paypal locked my account close to Christmas because I bought the product on a laptop using a tethered mobile access. Paypal detected that I was not using a standard connection and froze the account. That would be fine but even the support team at PayPal couldn’t remove that flag even if I provided my full identity etc.
Since then I never used Paypal.
There is tools like Lux meters that measures that.
In that case I think the other commenter was suggesting that a lot of marketing bullshit can be misleading. So dont trust the marketing stuff and go for trusted reviewers.
The brightness is an important value for a VP.
I personally have been using a BenQ W1070 for about 10 years. I couldn’t go without it. It’s constantly connected to my PC with a long HDMI cable and I just project on a clean white wall.
I went through 5 lamps changing most of them myself so it’s rather not expensive if you just change the lamp without casing.
I hear a lot of people say that you need a proper screen but I think it’s mostly bullshit at least for basic 1080p projector.
Use online calculators for VPs to check the throw distance and everything is good and as long as the wall is white and smooth IMHO it’s fine for an already good viewing experience.
The biggest mistake IMO for VP owner is to set it up on its own separate to their PC.
My VP is just an extra screen I switch on when I need to watch something but it’s never complicated. I switch it on and move YT or VLC to that screen.
A VP of good quality is really not that expensive if you change the lamp yourself and it provides a really comfortable way to watch content. Highly recommend them.
For sound I went for a fairly common Logitech Z906 for 5.1 support.
Honestly it’s a great setup I bought 10 years ago and I never regretted it.
PS : Also highly recommend one of these wireless Logitech media keyboard. The one I have from Logitech has the same age as my old VP and it works still perfectly. I change the batteries every few years and it let’s me comfortably control my PC when I’m on the couch watching something on the projector. Only regret is not taking a wireless keyboard with backlighting because with a VP you tend to often be in the dark :)
Yeah I think it’s just a false alarm.
I would suggest looking into how sudoers works. I might just be that you asked caddy to do something that required root and forgot to sudo the command ?
Still double check the timestamp and verify that it was when you tinkered. Use “history” to look for previous commands and maybe the timestamp ?
The way I see it something (probably caddy) wanted to check a TLS certificate and had to concatenate all the certificate authorities to check if an adequate CA was there. And it failed to access what looks like a local CA that is autosigned ? Still worth checking your CA has adequate / similar permission as the others.
Teaching something to someone and seeing them succeed at that after.
Such a great feeling!
I think CB got really close to Insanity on this one :)
You can totally feel him getting very frustrated but trying to keep calm to shoot the video…
I’m usually pretty relaxed when it comes to disclosure of vulnerabilities but this is the kind of issues where I think it would have been better to privately report the issue to the Lemmy dev and wait ( a long time probably) for it to be fixed before disclosing.
Especially since currently there is multiple people abusing the image hosting feature.
Not a big deal, but sometimes it is actually a better practice to give an opportunity to the dev to fix something before forcing them to do so in a hurry.
C’est bien connu en France:
Il a été bercé trop près du mur.
Depends of the hacker.
I suppose some government blackhat could do such thing for a very targeted hack. Still unlikely though.
