i prefer pairdrop specifically because there’s no install.

however, looks like local send (after install) might work offline as long as they local network is up.

oh, yeah. it’s not perfect but it sure does remove so much crap i don’t intend to read.

i recently missed an event invite because of it… luckily i was just a late responder and have not actually missed the event itself

i definitely have to “browse” the unimportant emails regularly

I’m using Google. I’ve done that too. protecting inboxes is step one for sure, but i also want to know the extent of this. it’s not enough for me to just block the emails and leave it at that.

if it keeps coming and i fail to block them all i want to have some info on the intent of this so I can properly educate others i work with to defend ourselves

I’ve seen hundreds of those and they’re mostly phishing attempts. this new one doesn’t look anything like that.

this one has multiple addresses in the CC field, at least one of which is always a predefined list on the senders side. and it’s otherwise a legit looking support ticket response.

but i want to know what’s the origin, what’s the vectors, and what’s the target.

not sure if all of them did, but some did for sure. off looking address too

i assume something just got popular with script kiddies, but i want to know what it is and what systems it effects so i can know if I’m protected or not.

gonna keep looking at least as long as i keep seeing this happening

I’ve done that, but it’s spreading.

never forget about the sarcasm razor… whichever one it is

this isn’t that

other than specific filters and generic spam filter I have the “if content contains ‘unsubscribe’ then mark as read and never mark important”

first day on the internet?

that’s not going to stop the hacked system from spamming myself and every other customer they have. I would highly doubt if they even take the time to look at any replies let alone actually read them and unsubscribe anyone who asked for it… after the entire hack was over because I called one company and they were already aware of the hack and were trying to stop it.

also

what kind of an idiot wrote this… oh… i did

fb will be doing things at such a massive scale that this would be too much work

I’ll kinda of arbitrarily say it’s 1 year after the last official game is released for the platform.

please don’t use a temp email (or non existent) for anything you might care about. also, make sure you never typo your email address.

example:

• someone uses a typo or fake email to create an account with some service.
• that service is later hacked and all emails found out
• hacker creates the email for real
• hacker just got your account

artists who don’t like this are no longer allowed to look at previous artist’s works before making their own. fan fiction is certainly not allowed.

I think the servers don’t know what to do when ads outnumber content 36 to 1

oh right, that’s a big one there. that images stay on the origin instance and they linked from there

it’s my understanding that you won’t make a full copy of everything. you’ll only copy the communities that are added and you won’t be copying the full history.

I’m unsure how far back it goes but it might be just the one day. i saw talk of changing it to go back as far as someone actually scrolled and pressed next but that was just an idea at this point.
