Credit cards are fine if your responsible with them. Don't run balances (unless you have to), use them as a buffer for your checking account, not a loan. Try and find one associated with your main bank, set a low balance limit (less than your savings, and try to get your savings over that limit), has decent rewards and has low fees. They are not in the business of screwing their existing customers, unlike a retail card, which has less of an incentive to behave.

The key adventage if you good at being a boring banking customer is dispute resolution. In the case of debit cards, you have to go after your own money. With credit cards, the bank has to go after its money, and they can put more effort into it than you can. (Plus enough credit card disputes will cause the card processor to drop the vendor, so... You have that card to play).

And your 100% correct on the micro-loan nonsense, thats not finance or credit, they are a scam.

This is technically somewhere between 48-52.8 hours.

A Mooch is not an exact measurement of time.

Thats just the gen-z version of not investing in apple in the 90s. Missed opportunities are not the same as actual mistakes, they all involve risk and things that blow up like BTC are rare and hard to see before they are take off. Its best to not kick your self over not having a time machine.

I know the big models will never really be able to achieve that in their current form, but am I reading too much crappy sci-fi to be paranoid that we should probably define what those are before it happens. Robot rights and such, because this is the mistake everyone makes.

Old Radio Shack, not that thing from 2015 that was functionally a brick and mortar cellphone stand.

For anything on my PC, usually yes. For texting or simple messaging, yes. For Lemmy, no, any spelling errors here are genuine human fuck-ups.

Sun Tzu says, never inturupt your enemy when they are making a mistake.

For the bottom machine, run the faucet for a few seconds before you put your cup under it. Last thing anyone wants is half-watered down cherry coke or homeopathic fanta.

Also, ask when Rome fell, historians wont agree on any specific date. They were never the top of the town afterwards, but the fall was more of a gradual multi-century tumble punctuated by hitting every rock on the way down.

Exactly, bitlocker or disk encryption prevents this from working and because you need some means of editing the file system outside of the user permissions, also physical access is required. At this point your are pretty much authorized to unplug the box and walk out of there with it (even if your not supposed to).

Microsoft has never fixed the sticky keys replacement cheese to unlock a PC you have physical access to. Ive done it up to W10, never tested it on W11.

1. Get a Windows recovery USB.

2. Boot into the recovery menu and open the command prompt.

3. Navagate to system32 and make a copy of the cmd.exe file (for a backup)

4. Copy the sticky_keys.exe and have it overwrite cmd.exe, then reboot.

5. On the login screen, smash the shift key until the command prompt appears and for some reason (because no user has logged in yet) it has admin permissions, so you can reset local passwords.

6. Once your logged in as a local admin, copy the backup of cmd.exe back so noone is none the wiser (except the security software that knows you messed with something)

Wern't there a few AI maze projects in the works? I wonder if running one of those for a bit will cause you to be added to an ignore list, clearly they dont respect your robots file.
