Why are top level domains so restricted? in c/selfhost@lemmy.ml

[–] LordTE7R1S@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 12 hours ago

In short, because of how DNS servers work. Each TLD has to be resolvable in the root servers and as far as I know ICANN doesn't manage root DNS servers and ICANN would have to become a registrar and coordinate all those TLDs with all the root servers all over the world.

Slackware has been around long before those distros appeared

Help with HDD in c/linux@lemmy.ml

Yes, that's true and a bad or undersized power supply also but in my experience it is much more likely to have a bad disk than to have something else fail

I would check the kernel messages (sudo dmesg) and check for errors on the ata bus. If there are it's most likely the disk that is failling

Hi!

I work for a small company and keeping phones working is one of my responsibilities. I have seen accounts being hacked and I always see that the owner of the account received an SMS or call and they are tricked into sharing that code and that the account can no longer be accessed without verifying the account again.

I have now seen an account being hijacked in a way I haven't seen. This person didn't receive an SMS or call and instead of not being able to access the account any more it seemed to being shared with another device, I mean, sending several messages to the number would result in all messages being delivered (double check mark) but only some of them would show up in this telephone. Incoming conversations that would appear to be the result of answering someone's message would appear out of the blue.

Now I can not access this account anymore getting an error that states that I am using an unofficial WhatsApp version which I am not in more than one phone so I assume the account got banned and trying to get support from meta seems to be impossible.

Has anybody seen something like this?

Thanks!
