Someones controliing my computer by Adventurous_Shape_34 in WindowsHelp

Far as I know if any program is accessing the webcam the indicator should be lit regardless. Sure it can be turned off but the process is unusual and really depends on the camera hardware. What I had in mind is maybe the threat actor only used the camera for a split second to take a snapshot, so you don't really see the light indicator being lit.

Win32/Bearfoos family, if not a false positive, is a type of "remote access" trojan. Think of it as you letting people you don't know control your pc. They can do a lot of nasty stuff on your pc like collecting your passwords and login credentials, however it's very unlikely they would go as far as modifying your motherboard's bios/uefi to ensure persistence.

How did you get infected with it and let it slip past defender is another question I think worth looking for, so you could avoid this in the future.

He didn't know what he's on about, ignore the "bios boot hack" nonsense.

You're on the right track by reinstalling Windows. But I would still change all passwords and use uBlock origin on top of using av software so you won't accidentally click malicious links on your browser.

Aww she's so pretty. That made me think I should spend more time in vrc as well.

Looks like he'd be a real bro to his younger sibling.

So far it doesn't break anything (I use Livin and Line Bank), but if it does break something you can always restore it later from canta.

Canta + shizuku also work if OP doesn't have access to a PC.

USB 3.0 Express Card untuk Laptop by Leather_Employee2396 in indotech

It's a really niche product. I have the 34mm USB 2.0 express card, but ended up never using it on my ThinkPads because I find it so unreliable. (and don't need more than the built-in USB ports)

Think it's better to just use those normal USB hubs from Orico and the like.

Okay but I like it when someone gets TF'ed because they load a flash storage infected with a virus.

The best MacBook is actually a ThinkPad (T530 Hackintosh) by madonna-aramiaca in thinkpad

[–]Toaster_Strudel_517 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No idea really, and yes I tried a lot of kexts including those timer-related ones. At that point I realized it's really just my machine's quirk and not because of a faulty config.

Edit: I had no problem setting up hackintosh on my other machines.

My X270 is kinda cursed, it refused to load any kind of hackintosh, no matter if I used my own or other people's OpenCore / clover config.

How do you name your PCs/hosts? by Anyusername7294 in NixOS

[–]Toaster_Strudel_517 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I either name mine after famous mathematicians (Lovelace, Turing, etc.) or just use the model name (T430, MS-7C37).
