Technology@lemmy.world•Google now blocks spoofed emails for better phishing protectionEnglish
171·2 years agoI know a there are a lot of issues with self-hosting email, but I just don’t thing this is one of them. First, it probably won’t affect a self-hosted servers anyway unless you send a lot of emails, this requirement is only for servers sending 5,000 messages daily to Gmail. And even if you are, the requirements are not that harsh, it’s a couple DNS records and a DKIM signing daemon, and if you are using a pre-build email package like mailcow it’s probably already doing it.

Technology@lemmy.world•Meta will delete all non-migrated Oculus accounts in March - The VergeEnglish
4·2 years agoYep, I wish I bought all my VR games from steam, but I bought a few from oculus when I first bought the headset. Also some games are oculus exclusive :/

Technology@lemmy.world•Meta will delete all non-migrated Oculus accounts in March - The VergeEnglish
1·2 years agoI actually figured it out trying to login to the app, I just needed to login to meta with my oclulus account credentials and it migrated it, not the most obvious thing. I like how the app constantly asks for location permission despite me not having a quest to pair it to. Also I find it funny that they care so little for the CV1 it shows a rift S for its picture lol

8·2 years agoFacebook has owned oculus since before the CV1, but I agree it was much less intergrated and still felt like a separate brand. I’m definitely biased as fuck, but “oculus” is infinitely better than “meta”. Much better sounding name. I just made a meta account to migrate my oculus account, but I can’t find any way to do it on PC without a quest. I don’t have a quest, so I guess I’m fucked?

841·2 years agoHow is this legal? Feels ridiculous to lose games I paid for just because I didn’t migrate my account. Same with the Microsoft minecraft account migration. When I bought my CV1 there was the promise that I would not need a facebook account.

Linux@lemmy.ml•What's (are) the funniest/stupidest way(s) you've broken your linux setup?
4·2 years agoI was testing a custom initramfs that would load a full root into a ramdisk, and when I was going to shut down I tried to run
rm -rf --no-preserve-root /to see what would happen, since I was on a ramdisk anyway. The computer would not boot after that because it nuked the UEFI options.

2·2 years agoupdate: I managed to get it working, look at the edit
Thomas Douwes@sopuli.xyzOPtodatahoarder@lemmy.ml•Recovering Hardware RAID array in software
2·2 years agoIt recognised the disks in an ASR array, but the type is “unknown” and it fails to assemble with “Undefined RAID type (null)[1] on asr_”. So I don’t think that worked sadly.
EDIT: The RAID card I had supported RAID 5 and dmraid doesn’t, that’s probably why it’s not working.

1·2 years agoI could not find a
--discoverparameter, but I tried--assemble --scanand it couldn’t find a super block.
It feels a bit frustrating to have all the data here but no way to access it, maybe a tool will pop up at some point if I hoard the disk images.
Thanks for the suggestion though.


Fuck, this one got me. I didn’t see the watermark. Even looking closely the details don’t seem AI, the floppy disks on the table, the cup, the keyboard colouring, the phone wire. Even the numbers on the calendar seem plausible with the bad compression. I hate this doubting every picture I see on the internet
