Pretty sure the Amazon vault lock offerings are essentially specific implementations of the broad idea of an immutable backup. Not disagreeing with you here, just saying this might not be an “or” situation.

Immutable backups are the “current hotness” in this space.

Unfortunately for me that’s not how it works here, I’m not sure that I disagree with it though. My neighbor wasn’t at fault for an idiot stealing her car and hitting mine so it seems odd to me she’d have to pay for it.
I will say, I think Hyundai should have some liability for building their modern cars without basic, standard, and inconsequentially cheap security features!

It’s the responsibility of the car thief who wasn’t caught and so it ended up being taken care of by my uninsured motorist insurance.

Yeah it certainly could have been worse!

Yeah that’s my bad, I (and legitimately, not to be a smart ass or dick about it) immediately assumed that 2FA wasn’t an option because of this event.

There are a lot of reasons you might, here’s a decent article on it:

With the potential compromise of a very popular lemmy instance, are there any plans for two-factor authentication options for lemmy server admins/owners?

If my only options are literally (I’m assuming cooked) pasta plain, or with ketchup added, I’d 200 percent eat just the pasta.
A little crosspost from Bimmerpost, I’ve had my f80 for a couple of years and thought I’d share my nightmare from late last year. At the time I lived in an apartment building with an optional pay-per-space garage (which is where my car lived). It had at one time a fully closing floor to ceiling gate, but that had unfortunately been out of operation for a couple of years. To walk the dogs, my fiancé and I would walk through the garage, out to a common grassy area. One morning she came back from the dog walk and immediately said “Elk…….. I think something happened to your car!” I took the elevator down to find the scene in the attached image :( The glass was from my neighbor (both in parking and in the building, coincidentally) whose Hyundai was affected by the recent spate of thefts. No transponder, someone stole her car, hit mine backing out, and took it for a joy ride. Fortunately, a door replacement and some paint later, everything is wonderful with the car, I was just out the deductible!

People are downvoting because 1) the tone is unnecessary and 2) it doesn’t answer the question. Sure, huge businesses spend a lot of money. Over 95 percent of businesses have fewer than 100 employees though and depending on size and sector 1000 a week could be nothing or orders of magnitude larger than a small business’s advertising budget.

If it’s Disney without DRM it’s probably a bootleg DVD
elk_1337 1y ago • 100%
Yeah, an already ripped DVD or a non DRM protected DVD, which is as difficult as copying files from a USB and why dd works here.
elk_1337 1y ago • 100%
Yeah this won’t work with 99.9 percent of DVDs or Blu-ray because of the DRM and the way the drives behave, not sure why you’d even post this.

Still figuring things out, not sure how to link a post in wefwef, but below is my cars community post for my 17 F80 M3!

I’ve had her for a few years and about 20k miles, the most fun car I’ve ever owned! Getting ready to do some minor exterior cosmetics like CF lip/diffuser/spoiler. Recently saw a set of OEM frozen gold wheels and now I’m coveting them lol
