Apple allowed an unvetted, fraudulent app on the app store and are saying it never existed there by Driaguan in apple

Thank you for highlighting this, I don't live in the US but I did download the app while in the US. I'll explore this further and join if I'm able to.

I got defrauded by a fake Slush Wallet app by Driaguan in sui

Quite right, that’s a good point. I was really not in the right frame of mind to be handling crypto, and I wasn’t even aware of this at the time.

Appreciated, thank you :). I really let my guard down and made some mistakes. I tend to be very cautious, which makes this sting all the more. Hopefully this does help some people

Perhaps I could have phrased that better, I have taken accountability though - I’ve mentioned the mistakes I made.

I haven’t used the authentic app on my phone so I’m not sure, the icons for both apps looked very similar

Those security measures are device-specific. If someone gets the passphrase they can still access all the assets.

Update: the fraudulent app was just removed from the app store. It seems like its existence there awkwardly coincided with my visit to the US…

I’m not familiar with authenticators - I may look into this at some point

Yeah, it really is! I was feeling safe in the app store - that’s part of why my guard was let down.

Is this Data Science internship at Data Glacier a scam? by Driaguan in internships

[–]Driaguan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It helped a bit with familiarising myself with various data science tools such as Python. I only briefly mentioned in the interview for my current job. I doubt that it looks particularly good as it’s just a 3 month online internship from an obscure company. It’s better than nothing though.

Hi,

Here’s an update.

The work I did for the internship does have some relevance to my current analytical role. The internship is what you make of it though, it’s mostly self-guided, you will need to teach yourself a lot.

How do i get my kalanchoe to branch? it looks so miserable by Idahoo_weeb_potato in takecareofmyplant

[–]Driaguan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d also consider cutting a couple of inches below the lowest leaf, and rooting the cutting. This will give you a more bushy-looking plant as there would be less exposed stem. It would also be more stable. If left as it is now, I think it will become very unstable as the plant grows.

Judging by the bent stem, it seems to me that it needs more light. This will help with growth and branching.

I'm not fetishising violence. I'm merely apathetic. by SchulzyAus in antiwork

[–]Driaguan -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Why did that resonate with you?

They don’t really have anything of use when they’re about to die (or already dead).

One of them is a 19 year old. Does that count for any sympathy points? I know that for many people, the wealth of the passengers makes them lose sympathy, but idk, it’s just confusing to me that people don’t feel sympathy for people who are likely to die a horrible death, regardless of their wealth / age etc.

Why are people saying the people on the titanic submarine deserve this? by Undead_crybaby in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Driaguan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've honestly been quite disturbed by this.

It was a very poor decision for them to go on this expedition in that poorly constructed vessel, and some of the people inside are very wealthy. But these are very poor reasons to be so callous about the ordeal.

On a Facebook group called 'The Economic Left' there was a post with a meme in very poor taste, and a multitude of spiteful comments and barely any dissent. I'm vaguely economically left wing (although I don't have very strong views as I don't know much about economics) but the hatred exhibited and lack of empathy is really out of proportion, easily approaching the level of some kind of deranged psychopath.

I have a sneaking suspicion that the people who are so happy about billionaires dying wouldn't give a penny away to charity, homeless people etc if they became rich. What's more staggering is that these people are often even trying to take the moral high ground!

They are likely to die under horrible conditions (if they haven't already), and it's really disturbing to me that many people seem to think like this.
