  • Call the owner to fix it. If it causes water damage, you’ll be on the hook for that because you fucked with radiator.

    Also what’s with the “gave me one afternoon” bit? No one can “give you” time. Do you “give” her afternoons to do a chore? How would that go for you? That sounds like a mother telling a 5 year old they better clean their room “this afternoon or else no dessert”






  • My desktop computer is plenty secure, but I can install whatever app I want from any source. The OS provides security tools to help protect against viruses. Even on a Mac desktop you can install apps outside the app store.

    Apple and Google are pushing for their app stores to be the only option. Imagine having one store chain in the whole world.

    And while the app store apps have a verification process, they’re not impenetrable. Apps slip through the system and scam apps are allowed to run rampent. What’s considered malware now has also changed, 25 years ago an app constantly “phoning home”, scanning your data, other apps and collecting data would have been considered malware.

    Devices would be most secure if we didn’t run any application.
