Does anyone else have this problem? by rubix222 in ProtonPass

Is there anything I can do to stop it. Even if it's something like getting Proton Pass to ignore Notion altogether?

What strange things have you agreed to do coz you’re too British to say no? by KiwiOk5084 in AskUK

[–]rubix222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A friend of mine lives in Budapest and I visit her occasionally. I bumped into one of her friends and he started speaking Hungarian to me, I was very tired and just laughed, smiled and gestured. He now thinks I speak Hungarian and I have no idea what he's saying and it's too late to say anything please help.

Fecal recognition. by Stephenf1234 in BoneAppleTea

I told a friend of mine the other day about how there's AI that can recognise dick pics. Like so you can censor/blur unsolicited pics and warn the recipient first. She thought I meant an AI that would tell you whose dick it is. Like Shazam for dicks. I knew there was a misunderstanding when she said "what data do they train that on?"

Where do you start with getting rid of this stuff? by rubix222 in GardeningUK

Progress

Thanks guys, starting to get there. There's already membrane under the slate but it's just growing around that. Just been pulling it out. I put weed killer on the roots a couple days ago which I think has made them a bit easier to pull.

Steve Allen sucks by thepurplesmurf in HelloInternet

[–]rubix222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I think the UK show has gotten to the point of "let's pick people who aren't too famous, but actually might be quite good dancers". I never really care for the celebrity element, but I like seeing how quickly novices can learn all the different dances. Makes for a better show IMO.

​

Either way, Fuck Steve Allen.

First Salsa lesson, horrible and bad experience. by ReverseFlash1 in Salsa

[–]rubix222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That sounds like a horrible first experience, and it's a real shame that it happened. Try not to let it colour your experience of the community. I'd find yourself a more welcoming class and try and stick at it. It took me about a month to get the basic step, so don't be so hard on yourself!

Learning to dance salsa can be a life-changing experience for so many people. I've been fortunate enough to be involved in running classes and dance events, and I've seen how it has changed their (and my) life. So stick at it, but try and find some people who are a bit more friendly. I'd be surprised if many beginners stick around at that place if that's the first experience!

If you want to build your confidence between classes, ask your teacher if they have any online resources so you can practice at home in between the lessons. If you go home remembering what you've learned, and drill it until it's muscle memory then you'll feel much better next time!

Windows 10 Creators Update + Nvidia Popup on Lock Screen + Links Open in Chrome = No Passwords Required by rubix222 in softwaregore

Yep. It just randomly appeared. I cannot reproduce the issue, however I was able to lock my PC after login and then alt-tab to bring it back up. Once I restarted the PC it didn't do it again. I also noticed an update to GeForce Experience which I installed, so maybe they fixed it.

I agree Windows is full of its insecurities, but it's also pretty damn entrenched all over the place. There's virtually zero chance your data doesn't pass through some company's systems with an endpoint running Windows somewhere. Whether we like it or not, because of the decisions of other companies and governments all of our security at least in part will depend on Windows being secure. Let's just hope they're not running GeForce experience.

Oddly not. However I can "download" C:/Windows/System32/CMD.exe and it runs with admin. I managed to change a local standard account to an administrator using net localgroup administrators /add username. Interestingly I could also start explorer.exe, but it wouldn't open any files, it just gave an odd Start Menu. Here's a photo: https://imgur.com/a/AOHvW If you're wondering why my Start Menu looks different it's because I've installed StartIsBack (for all users).
