The difference between being unwillingly ignorant and being ignorantly stupid is not knowing something, and thinking that someone that does know something is pompous.

Now, I'll give you the benefit of the doubt because you're a .de Lemmy, but in American Best Buy, the people op is talking about are supposed to be salespeople who's job is literally to know basics about what they're selling. There's even people dedicated to each department for that reason. Kind of like Power, if you have that there (we have it in Finland but I know it's Swedish).

Or to put it in a term you might know, imagine going to a car dealership, and the salesperson doesn't know if the gasoline car they're saying you should buy is a V4 or V6, and can't tell you how many MPG it gets. They just know it's a car made by (brand).

Printer network access is one of the oldest tricks in the books. They didn't really try to sandbox it if they gave it access to a printer (especially since it's task didn't even require a printer).

69?

Most say it's better because it has a meaning of some sort, even if crass. Kind of how "fuck" has survived hundreds of years because it's based on a meaning.

I know 67 is funny for it's absurdism in meaninglessness, but it's very likely it'll be a fad that dies for the same reason, as future generations won't give it as funny since it doesn't have meaning. Things like 69, while crass, might still be picked up by an even younger generation, and 420 will probably stick around since it's already been passed on multiple generations. 42? Maybe. It's essentially a scifi trope, so it might stick around too, especially with AI becoming prevalent.

You're probably too young to know what 69 means I guess based on your responses, let alone ever had the chance to do a 69, so fair enough.

And I guess weed is much more legal these days than before, so less need for a code number.

42 is what you were thinking of with your first answer btw, and it's the meaning of everything.

1337 you might come across if you start coding. 1ts M0r3 0utd4t3d.

Possibly, but Finland still uses Palantir tech, so who knows if they're following the constitution

[–] Lumisal@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

At least they stopped using it.

More than can be said about the current Finnish government

If that way the case, in keeping with open source tradition, it should be the Uwumba

Pros: It's how I found out my spear is indeed long

Cons: it shrivels into my body when recalling that experience because painful is putting it mildly.

My speakers can't get hacked like this luckily.

They use a headphone jack line.

That's actually usually a sign of malware...
