I have a bunch in my house

Thank you got the comment, I never even considered the risk as someone running an instance.

Suddenly I’m extremely worried about using lemmy. What’s the right way to respond if something is seen. Call the police? FBI hotline or something? Certainly screenshotting anything to send to authorities is out of the question but as soon as an image is loaded a device downloads it to cache so it’s like a dirty bomb just sitting on your device at that point. I have been blissfully ignorant that anything I use in my day to day would ever share a space with such abhorrent behavior. Kind of not sure I should still use the service, like that has actually been an issue on here before?

Gotcha, no, I wasn’t trying to make that claim, it’s just a way to make it more difficult/time consuming

That’s all you can do though, extend the time it takes to brute force, so I’m not sure what the distinction being made is.

If they are following best practices then individual hashes should be salted and the database of hashes should be peppered so even if someone brute forces an offline copy of the hashes they wouldn’t result in actual useable passwords.

Our move to XCP-ng Hypervisors with XOA has been a great experience.

I take cash out of an atm a few times a year to tip at restaurants and such and just pick $200 because that’s the highest one button click that shows up. $100 seems low to me. I think I got over $100 in my wallet more days of the year than not and I’m not into anything nefarious or even make much money, I just don’t use cash very often but often enough that having it available is handy. Theirs Girl Scouts, fire fighter donations at the grocery, neighborhood sports or band raffles, just random ass things that happen regular enough that having cash throughout the year makes it easier to feel part of the community.

I don’t disagree with you, I just don’t think the line for life in prison and death should exist under 100% certain, which is incredibly rare. I’m not sure of a practical solution but I’ve had rough 5-10 year stretches in my life and they are traumatic. No amount of ‘damages’ fixes that or makes someone whole. Sometimes I wonder if people really know what it’s like to be locked up for 5-10+ years when they go off about a sentence being too short. Life without parole is a death sentence just the same as the chair is.

I think it’s unethical to force someone to be locked up in prison for the rest of their life without 100% certainty also.

I guess I can see that, maybe my understanding of words or their implication is incorrect. While I would agree they contain more knowledge I guess that reads different to me than being more knowledgeable. I think that maybe it comes across as anthropomorphizing a dataset of information to me. I could easily be wrong.

Is stringing words together really considered knowledge?

Appreciate the clarification. My curiosity certainly isn’t more important than surviving loved ones. Theirs no acceptable torture obviously, I was trying to figure out, at least generally, the context to go with the cops statement. I can’t imagine the kinds of things a homicide detective sees throughout their career, not really anyway. I’m guessing my question probably came off insensitive etc. I just spoke my curiosity after reading the article and searching online a bit to find an answer and came back and asked without thinking about it.

Tortured how?
