You then have to confirm that you aren’t being coached/guided/instructed by a bad actor to turn off the security measures.
-
This is followed by a device restart and re-authentication that “cuts off any remote access or active phone calls a scammer might be using to watch what you’re doing.”
-
A required “Security wait” takes one day to “confirm that this is really you who’s making this change with our biometric authentication (fingerprint or face unlock) or device PIN.” This is a one-time wait.
-
Afterwards, you can install apps from unverified developers indefinitely, while there’s also a 7-day “Turn on temporarily” option.
I don’t think the wait is necessary. If someone were to continue being scammed after a reboot, they’d continue to be scamme tomorrow. An additional education piece after the reboot would be more effective.

There’s pit angels though. Usually one every few metres. They’re the big guys, usually tall, often wearing white shirts for some reason. They’re the people that manage to clear space in seconds, pick a little person back up off the ground, and get them out of the zone. They’re also great at retrieving lost shoes and returning them to the owner before they get surged to a different location. They’d notice a dead crowd surfer instantly.
- Comment on How possibly? 1 day ago:
So long as the result is a bazillion comments with as many upvotes as downvotes on each, it’s a good shitpost. Bonus points if it captures those two cliche users that end up frustrating the hell out of each other as they strive to be first in a 20 comment head-to-head marathon that goes absolutely no where. All because some people take it seriously while others take it as a joke; minimal effort by OP.
This community seems to lean quite a bit toward people taking things seriously, or they simply don’t notice where they are before they unsheath their keyboards.

Makes me wonder why Team Rocket never tried malware. They could control all capture Pokemon quite easily.

Yeah. The Pokemon don’t get digitised and stored in a buffer, their ID transferred to Bill’s disks.
Bill just has an old PC case filled with occupied Pokeballs and a Chansey labelling them, ready to tube some back.
- Comment on Israeli tech CEO calls to 'limit the First Amendment' to prevent spread of 'lies' on social media 1 week ago:
It’s not. Free speech is to prevent a state encroaching on or involving themselves in the censorship of citizens.
Social media operators can do what they want in terms of censorship. It’s their’s to censor and if someone doesn’t like it they may simply choose not to use it. It does not impact their wellbeing or freedoms within the state.

- Comment on the world 2 weeks ago:
That’s similar to the one where they couple breaks up over a misunderstanding and all it takes is one of them explaining in like 10s. But instead someone storms off while the other pleas, and deep down you’re like, “That motherfucker so wanted it to end anyway.” But then we deal with post-break up scenes and you realise they’re just idiots that still haven’t even thought to clear up the misunderstanding via a single text, call, or friend like that afternoon.
- Comment on Microsoft Copilot to hijack your browser... for your own convenience 2 weeks ago:
I figure if you’re already the kind of person to chat with Copilot, you’re not the kind of person that will be inconvenienced by it launching links in chat instead of your browser.
For 95% of other users, though, that would be infuriating.

Haha, I chucked it on last night after typing this comment. There’s so many scenes where characters have no place being there but they are, because it’s just the public dealing with an action hero.
My partner hadn’t seen it before.
“There’s no way he’s about to jump the building with a horse… Yeah, I was gonna say. A horse would never do that.”
“But that’s the point. You’re so into the action hero stuff that you didn’t notice they played a screeching rubber SFX when the horse stopped.”
😙👌

I think it’s right when he sees someone’s about to hurt her, so he hurts the guy or something, and the guy ends up getting kicked in the balls by Curtis. The scene ending with some awesome “action helicopter” cam of the extraction completed, home boy limping back to the heli holding his balls, “Son of a…”
It’s such a well directed movie with perfect pace too. Even when it goes over top, it makes just enough fun of itself for doing so.

You mean, “turn into”?
I don’t think anyone’s turning to the USA for education stuff.
- Comment on Beans 3 weeks ago:
You should swap out the thing she has with something else of value. Treats, licky mat, toy, another piece of meat, whatever. This gets her used to something being taken off her and it not being a bad thing. Eventually the swap is just for praise or a pat, but for really valuable things you may still need something more valuable.

Don’t worry, though. Plenty of lemmingtons come in and take it seriously without realising—which is half the point of SPs, really.
Just always assume sarcasm and poking in these parts. Have a laugh when you see the whooshes.
Also, block lemmy.ml if you haven’t already 👍 Welcome!

Because everyone knows Hamas are as equal an evil as the Israel authority.
OP’s “feeling great” is in no way associated with what’s going actually going on—that would be insane. It’s just about how they perceive their social superiority to others whenever the topic of Hamas and Israel rises. They couldn’t care less about what’s going on, but they want that “owned 'em” feels.
