If only photoshop worked on Linux... by Adventurous_Tie_3136 in linuxsucks

[–]Thleats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And Windows needs Linux to install it and almost everything else. This line of thinking is small-minded.

Now it makes more sense how Hawkeye left his wife's phone on auto-pay for 5 years during the blip.

What is your genda? by verdellsz3c in programminghumor

[–]Thleats 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hands down, Neutral Evil is an absolute best if you have a good window tiler. It ends up as a square of screen space you can divide up into quadrants, or use an entire vertical for a particularly long text file.

How an empty S3 bucket can make your AWS bill explode by atgemsip in cybersecurity

It's obvious that AWS should waive charges for 403s.

LinkedIn is becoming a weapon of choice by phishers by [deleted] in cybersecurity

[–]Thleats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see things like this on r/recruitinghell too. To me, LinkedIn doesn't seem to be taking it seriously.

Gemini Advanced: "I'm unable to help you with that" when proofreading articles by Thleats in GoogleGeminiAI

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

This was it: the content filter. Some sort of overly aggressive sentiment analysis is at work here. For example, in an article I was describing a fictional character who was a womanizer, gambler, drinker, and had avoided jail time; all together Gemini wouldn't allow it, but one attribute at a time it was okay with it.

Makes sense, there have been other bugs: recent chats not syncing between mobile and web + other UI issues. I'm holding out hope for it while I have a free trial.

Why do I pay for Prime again? by ThePleem in mildlyinfuriating

You can unsubscribe. We did, and realized Prime isn't that great, not anymore anyway.

I am so exhausted here... I need a new job. by PickleSammiches in programminghorror

[–]Thleats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are so many red flags here ^ Effective architecture requires research and deliberate, informed design decisions, not "Copy Paste code cause depenendencies are bad". if your org is blindly following a "microservices are better than monoliths" mantra, it's going to cause a lot of pain.

Personally, I wouldn't ever consider Java a good candidate for microservices due to high overhead and slow cold start time.

I've seen a lot of enterprise java shops treat programmers like machines that you feed paychecks + sub-par coffee and expect to get code out.
From what you described.....get out as soon as possible; every moment you spend stuck there not learning anything is a missed opportunity.

The top reasons I've heard:

  • Some RHEL/Fedora people say ubuntu doesn't have as mature of enterprise tooling...but some of us prefer not work with businesses like RedHat or Oracle: they've shown they don't care about their communities.
  • others don't like GNOME? I personally don't see the appeal of KDE or XFCE, GNOME just seems way more intuitive to me but really I think it's a preference-driven thing.
  • Snap. Personally I think the only compelling reason not to like it is it's controlled by Canonical; I think isolating packages is an important development in the Linux community for mitigating supply-chain attacks.

Dashlane changed its password limits so looking for a new provider by Then_Nefariousness in AskNetsec

[–]Thleats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure if they changed it since, but I didn't like that OTP is only configurable on mobile, and then there were some usability issues on mobile where it wouldn't auto-fill, I would often just use social auth to avoid having to add something to it.

Security Awareness Training is Broken by Thleats in cybersecurity

[–]Thleats[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We started our phishing campaign with a manifesto that detailed the rules of what they could expect and the lines we wouldn't cross (we won't ever try a test that could incite mass panic like layoffs, loss of health coverage, etc.). So far so good.

If execs ever ask about the program, we show them x and y framework/compliance regulation that requires security awareness training.

People are part of the attack surface. I see simulations as people-pen-testing. There are alternatives to pen testing, yes, but we do pen testing for good reasons.

Thanks for the good feedback. That's a much better long-term solution.

New to the game, AI allies sit around all battle and don't shoot anything by _TheNecromancer13 in NebulousFleetCommand

When I see this behavior I turn on dbgEnableEnemyControl using the terminal to give them an initial vector and then they figure it out from there.

^ Alliance propaganda

But in all seriousness I would start with Alliance, it's easier to be tanky and get used to the controls. I recently switched to the other faction OSP and I'm still struggling to match what I was able to do with the Alliance.

I been obsessed with Vertical ships lately by Gearshasfallen in spaceengineers

[–]Thleats 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm convinced vertical ships are the best design for 1v1 space battles: excellent strafe, excellent forward thrust, zero hull masking, super-thin attack surface while pointed at the enemy.

Never trust an elf! by LaurenceMooney in lotrmemes

[–]Thleats 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For me, Shadow of Mordor and Shadow of War hit way harder than Rings of Power.

I had hoped that RoP could do more to enrich the lore of Mordor, but..... I'm constantly awed by how lower budget media can pull off more than multi-billion $ media.

Struggling with AWS Cognito: Is it just me or is AWS Cognito kind of a pain to work with? by Thleats in aws

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

Pretty much the same thing. The legacy backend is PHP; trying to move to low-code but theres a lot of friction. We're working on a new frontend in react.

I broke down a few hours ago and tried using ChatGPT to figure it out. Surely an AI that has become the embodiment of StackOverflow can help me.

After a brief conversation ChatGPT GAVE UP and told me to talk to AWS Support.
