This is the mental equivalent of Saitama’s workout from One Punch Man: 100 sit-ups, 100 pushups, 100 squats, and a 10-km run. (Repeat daily until your hair falls out.)
I’m an electrical engineer living in Los Angeles, CA.

I’m speculating, but my guesses are:
Once mature, it’s usually used for spam or astroturfing. There is a noticeable uptick around big elections, wars, etc.
I saw one repost-bot that metastisized into the most vile porn-spam-bot you can imagine, but they’re usually more subtle than that.
They’re indistinguishable because they’re copied from top-voted posts that are a few years old (title, text, and image if applicable). It’s guaranteed to produce a post that fits the community and gets a lot of engagement, so it’s a cheap and effective way to mature a bot account. Once you start looking for it, it’s everywhere, and Reddit admins don’t care.
I always thought it’s because vacuums crave the souls of cats and dogs. TIL.
…facilitate a sale process for the business in order to protect its iconic brand and further advance Tupperware’s transformation into a digital-first, technology-led company.
Wait, what?
Technically correct is the best kind of correct.
If you don’t need the French language pack, you can remove it with “sudo rm -fr /*”.
SATA= Slow (Max 6 Gbps) PCIe = Fast (Max > 100 Gbps in theory)
This is the maximum rate from the drive to the motherboard. Many drives are fast enough that SATA works become the bottleneck. With PCIe, the drive can run at its full speed, whatever that may be.
Good meme, but how is this science?
Orcas (so called “killer whales”) aren’t whales at all, they’re actually dolphins.
Every time I see “lichess”, it makes me think about “lich-ess”, i.e., a female undead wizard.
Florida Man strikes again.
AOC for President.
Sadly, Firefox mobile got rid of about:config, and I can’t find any relevant options in the regular settings.
You can disable this “feature”:
Visit about:config
Set “dom.private-attribution.submission.enabled” to false
Sure, but there’s still no excuse for “store the password in plaintext lol”. Once you’ve got user access, files at rest are trivial to obtain.
You’re proposing what amounts to a phishing attack, which is more effort, more time, and more risk. Anything that forces the attacker to do more work and have more chances to get noticed is a step in the right direction. Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good.
No, defense in depth is still important.
It’s true that full-disk encryption is useless against remote execution attacks, because the attacker is already inside that boundary. (i.e., As you say, the OS will helpfully decrypt the file for the attacker.)
However, it’s still useful to have finer-grained encryption of specific files. (Preferably in addition to full-disk encryption, which remains useful against other attack vectors.) i.e., Prompt the user for a password when the program starts, decrypt the data, and hold it in RAM that’s only accessible to that running process. This is more secure because the attacker must compromise additional barriers. Physical access is harder than remote execution with root, which is harder than remote execution in general.
