There is a guy who goes by “Cy” who posts videos online of homes he inspects in Arizona. There’s been some crazy stuff he’s found. I enjoy watching his content.

What is the best way to encrypt a USB drive that can be used on multiple OSes? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Cryptomator might be a good option. They have clients for Windows, macOS, and Linux. It’s designed around encrypting your cloud storage but nothing should stop you from using it on a USB drive.

Should I be concerned if I receive a spam email that contains the first 3 and last four digits of my phone number, with the middle 3 being replaced with X's? in c/[email protected]

Considering how many data breaches have happened this year alone, I wouldn’t be very surprised if your phone number was leaked in one of them, along with your email address. Make sure you use unique passwords for all your online accounts (a password manager can help with this).

I personally really enjoyed the story in Bioshock 2. You should give it a shot!

eBay makes you wait a week to rate a sale as anything other than positive. in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 74 points 4 months ago

IIRC in recent years eBay made it so that if you are one of their “top rated” sellers, buyers can’t leave the neutral or negative feedback for a week. Which is nice and all for sellers that are trying to resolve any issues a buyer may have, but not nice for situations like this one.

32-bit ThinkPad X60: still worth it? in c/[email protected]

[–] [email protected] 3 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Since these systems come with Core Duo processors, I think they should also support some of the first gen Core 2 Duo mobile chips (I’m thinking like the T7200). Those chips support 64 bit and should be pretty cheap to come by, if you’re willing to do some surgery on the laptop.

iOS 17.2 Beta 1: Journal App, Translate Action, iMessage Sticker Reactions and More in c/[email protected]

I am interested in trying out the journal app. I’ve used several different apps in the past that are mental health focused, such as Daylio and Finch. Although the journal app doesn’t replace them, it may work better just for dumping my thoughts.

Been trying to figure out why my PC is running slow in c/[email protected]

That is a processor with some very dried-out looking thermal compound on it. I had to deal with a similar situation today on a machine I was working on.
