Unless you have had three independent data recovery companies confirm the data can’t be recovered - I’m not buying it.

For the software erase it says:

Even if power is interrupted during the data wiping process, the drive will automatically resume clearing data the next time it gets power, says Team Group.

We aren’t sure of the wiping algorithm or tech, so we would assume there remains a chance of data recovery after this software-powered wipe, or partial wipe.

For the hardware erase, it says recovery might be more effort than it’s worth. So sounds like neither mode gets proven results.

It’s essentially a dangerous scam.

Of course this is incorrect, go look up an empire and see.

… Roman empire got over 1000 years, Ottoman’s got 623 years, Mongol empire only got 162.

…and Italy, Turkey, and Mongolia are still around, they’re just not empires anymore. They’re Nations.

There needs to be a community tasked with advertising Lemmy on Reddit.

We all know that scene in Robo Cop 2 is going to happen eventually.

Yeah, but the question was as to whether Gemini is listed as an app. The answer is no, Google have snuck it in whether you like it or not.

Yes, it’s on there. I have a phone, never downloaded or installed Gemini, but because it’s a motorola with a special extra button… I can push that button and up pops Gemini.

The only way I can stop it is by disabling the Google app, then the button becomes innert again (which is how I like it).

So yes, it’s embedded in the Google app. Disabling the Google app may aslo cause other issues (such as Google Home/Chromecast not working).

But the plastic bottle can still create a lot more, surely.

No human needs this, this is the march of the companies against humanity.

In that case, I’m switching to ghosts, ufos, government cover ups, and the zodiac.

Take that science.

Can’t wait until we figure out that improving society for the people in it, improves society overall.

The answer always seems to be: Cloudflare is fucking up again. This isn’t the first time.

The number of pro-Isreal bots is ridiculous.

I’ve heard that’s how a lot of wealthy people feel. They want the absolute best for people in their family, and that’s about it.

Governments get really intense creating propaganda when they goto war. So if they’re going to war with Iran, expect lots of propaganda.

Just focus on the browsing.

Yeah, but the problem with that is that they don’t get to eat any potato chips.

Anyways, today’s use case for the person’s post is to block a garage door beeper, so chip packets or a refrigerator should do fine.

…unless they’re also abducting people for extraordinary rendition. Then maybe get the faraday bag.

I tend to vote for the Australian Greens party. They never seem to win the US elections though.

Works depending on how you do it, how many bags you use, where you are, and what the signal stength is.

Enough chip packets will block anything.

Lots of people will be happier the day Peter Thiel dies… He’s disliked in the same range as Musk, without having anywhere near the public presence.
