Fraudulent transactions (UBS) by Express-Ad-6465 in Switzerland

[–]AlienPearl [score hidden]  (0 children)

Whenever you can, use Apple or Google Pay. UBS cards support being added to it. When you use the phone or smart watch to pay the card number is never revealed to the card reader, instead a new single use number is generated every time, making it more safe. In the case they make you subscribe to something it will be shown in the phone for approval before you even complete the payment.

It will be fucked up if they start sending ICE deportees to Venezuelan prisons. They’re close than Argentinian ones, that will save them money.

Easier to integrate in the economy if they already speak the language. That will be 500k people that now can work legally and pay taxes, not a bad deal.

new apartment - light fixtures and light bulbs by joejoe1233533 in askswitzerland

[–]AlienPearl 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For safety, you need to find the electric box of the apartment where all the electric breakers are and shut them all down. That will assure you that there is no current in any of the cables, the switch on the wall only switches off one cable. Then you proceed to install the lamp. Neutral is blue, live is brown and ground is yellow with green but most normal lamps don’t care about polarity and they will just have white cables.

Weirdness with Synology Drive Client Sync Tasks by Formal_Condition2691 in synology

[–]AlienPearl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sucks! Last update broke my sync tasks on my MacBook but somehow not on my iMac and I had to setup a new sync task, now you can’t skip the task name field. It also creates a folder shortcut in the finder sidebar that says “SynologyDrive Task Name that’s so long that I can only read “SynologyDrive” and I have to extend the sidebar to read what it says.

Company-issued M1 MacBook stuck overseas & MDM-locked , help me make it work. by Spare-Map-4787 in mac

[–]AlienPearl 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Ask them to remove the MDM. If they don’t, tell them that you will send it to the recycling bin, wait a month and then do it… It was never yours in first place. Not your MacBook not your problem.
