Welcome to the News community!

Rules:

1. Be civil


Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.


2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.


Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted seperately but not to the post body.


3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.


Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.


4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source.


Posts which titles don’t match the source won’t be removed, but the autoMod will notify you, and if your title misrepresents the original article, the post will be deleted. If the site changed their headline, the bot might still contact you, just ignore it, we won’t delete your post.


5. Only recent news is allowed.


Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.


6. All posts must be news articles.


No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials or celebrity gossip is allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis.


7. No duplicate posts.


If a source you used was already posted by someone else, the autoMod will leave a message. Please remove your post if the autoMod is correct. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.


8. Misinformation is prohibited.


Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.


9. No link shorteners.


The auto mod will contact you if a link shortener is detected, please delete your post if they are right.


10. Don't copy entire article in your post body


For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

Passcode, baby, I’m coming back to you!

OR you could carry a knife with you and chop off your thumb if they try to arrest you

Nah, then they get you for littering and open the phone.

You have to walk around with a hotplate so you can sear your fingerprints off.

I feel like a lighter would do

Obviously the decision here is an easy one.....

Know where to get a good whetstone?

I prefer to just have my phone's fingerprint reader loaded with a non-fingerprint. You can use any part of your body, really. Use your imagination. It'll be functionally impossible to unlock your phone even using that same part of your anatomy later, even if anyone could guess what it was.

So then your phone will ask for a fingerprint but none of your fingers will ever in a million years actually unlock it. Jack booted thugs are welcome to try; they will fail. To actually use your phone, just enter your PIN or passcode.

Rub my dick on the phone or chop off my thumb? Decision, decisions

For iPhones, a reboot will require passcode even if you have biometrics configured.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

You don’t even need to reboot. Just holding the shutdown combination to pull the menu up is enough to activate the passcode lock. You can just hit cancel after that.

I think that's all phones
