I'll do that on my Linux machine if I have to do a lot of admin stuff. Otherwise I just stick to sudo.

Do you have a separate admin account, or let your "main" account have admin rights? Do you require entering a password/PIN to install software? Just curious about where people fall on the security-convenience spectrum.

T-Mobile Shows Users the Names, Pictures, and Exact Locations of Random Children by ssroxnak in c/privacy@lemmy.ml
[-] ssroxnak@lemmy.world 18 points 2 days ago

I like the idea of a kid tracker, but I also don't think it's super necessary. Especially when this happens. To me, it implies that T-Mobile isn't using end to end encryption between the tracker and parents phone. Maybe from tracker to T-Mobile to parents.

Side note: Any decent kid tracker thingies that respect privacy?

Authorities arrested the staffer, named by Capitol Police as Kevin Batts, Monday evening after Batts told officers outside the Senate galleries he was armed, the department said. Batts had been led by Booker around security screening at a Senate office building earlier in the day, according to the department.

Booker is such a hypocrite. He had to have known that his guy had a gun, why would else would he bypass security?
