foggy@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do so many piece of Hardware come with windows only software requiring admin right for installation3·2 days agoMaybe google it before pretending you know what it does based on the name?
Talk about something no competent IT director would do 🙄.
foggy@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do so many piece of Hardware come with windows only software requiring admin right for installation41·2 days agoAutoelevate does handle this appropriately.
It automatically sends the prompt to a designated group of admin users for review. It 100% removes admin rights from end user machines.
It doesn’t automatically allow anything.
So many people in this thread responding to text without looking into anything – talk about bad security practices.
foggy@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do so many piece of Hardware come with windows only software requiring admin right for installation610·2 days agoGross. Tell your IT director about solutions to this problem, like autoelevate or similar. I mean there’s a security tradeoff but, you can have windows prompts for admins automatically prompt an IT admin to review and enter their credentials or deny and request more info. And it’s a very easy deployment for any intermediate IT person.
Edit: autoelevate DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY ALLOW.
Christ. I mean, bad job on the devs naming it but don’t downvote me based on a couple dumbass knee jerk responses. It does this appropriately. Lemmy sucks sometimes.
I operate on the philosophy that it is better for me to relearn things than lean on old documentation that may no longer be accurate/relevant.
The best way to implement a safe connection to my home lab today might not be the safest way tomorrow.
Old dog, new tricks, etc.
Also! Your documentation is an attackers wet dream.
NB: this philosophy doesn’t scale.
foggy@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Partner has ADD, do I have misophonia?1·6 days agoVideogames and YouTube reaction vid can both go to the same singular pair of Bluetooth headphones.
Your partner is not being fair to you. They don’t need to be listening at full volume, either. That’s obnoxious.
Shit, if I wanna plug my guitar in my huge amp and shred guitar all day, do I just tell my gf to deal with it because I’m depressed and have ADD? No, I use amp simulators and headphones.
foggy@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments?1·2 days agoOkay I’m free now.
Im so glad you gave me this gem.
Your response itself relies on several fallacies… false equivalence, hasty generalization, equivocation, a strawman, and non sequitur reasoning, probably more?
You’re incorrectly conflating logical fallacies (which are clear mistakes in reasoning) with inductive uncertainty or experimental limitations in science. Logical fallacies invalidate reasoning structures. Scientific reasoning explicitly includes uncertainty and error correction as fundamental principles; it’s not fallacious; it’s cautious and probabilistic.
Additionally, your example of Socrates is actually demonstrating deductive validity, a different kind of reasoning entirely. Thus, your argument misrepresents logic and science simultaneously. Please correct these fallacies if you want this conversation to proceed productively
Edit: see? Worked like a charm.
foggy@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What techniques do bad faith users use online to overwhelm other users in online discussion and arguments?0·7 days agoWhy do we not have some brilliant mind just fully memorize all of the ins and outs of how these arise and just crush bad faith arguments by simply labeling them in real time rather than engaging with them?
Like, if framed correctly “I don’t engage in logical fallacy. I will immediately call it out, move on, and go back to the relevant topic.”
“Oh you don’t care about starving children?”
“That’s an appeal to emotion. I won’t engage with this obvious logical fallacy. I will address the causes of children suffering to alleviate their suffering.”
“But the cause is illegal immigrants!!!”
“That’s a strawman. I won’t engage with logical fallacies. If you’d like to have a discussion about solving problems, Im all ears, but until we’re done pointing fingers, this conversation is over.”
foggy@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My password is not accepted because it is too longEnglish0·7 days agoOkay so I agree with you that a longer password is better but this in no way indicates clear text password storage.
Having 0 documentation doesn’t mean you have no DLP strategy. That’s amateur hour.
And again, NB: this does not scale.
