You're still the driver in the self-driving car. If someone honks, you have pedals and a wheel in front of you. It always comes down to driver neglect. It's like blaming the cruise control for speeding, but giving cruise control more responsibilities.

Wrong app store

Yep! My OLED TV has sat around at 100% brightness with a taskbar sitting there for more than 5 years. No burn in at all. I've even watched those "burn in tester" videos to try to find it on purpose, too. I can't notice a thing.

Burn in is pretty much a solved problem now. I have several OLED devices that each display static graphics and there is no visible burn in.

Keep your ebook readers dumb and use them offline. Load them up with books and read them.

Yeah it's an interesting project, but it looks bad with the printed case and exposed tact switches, and seems to have little functionality.

With plasma.

Saved you a click. The article is still good, though.

Yeah, this redirect is very uncool. Go to https://hachyderm.io/@robpike/111593487329402102 instead.

Looks like they need to learn a thing or two about integration tests, redundancy, and fail-overs.

A software update didn't take it down. Negligence did. You should wonder why it doesn't work before you ship to production.

[-] Synthead@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Exactly. Just be responsible and don't do anything dumb with your security. Do the typical stuff right like using a password manager and updating your software often. With your programming, don't skip ssl validation, don't have unauthenticated connections that matter, don't shell out, etc. On your local system, use permissions correctly, keep a local firewall, and all that good stuff. You should be fine, but it's never 100%.
