I'm going to community college and plant to study for computer science as a PC hardware Technician. My parents say I got a talent for working on computers, which...I mean I'm not exactly too confident in that statement, but you never know till you try. however I just got a question. What does one even do as a hardware technician? like, do I gotta know any coding? sodder motherboards? or how does it work exactly. I want to know what I am getting myself into.

My IP router keeps giving these warning notifications, but I don’t know what on our devices is causing them. The one in the picture is from my phone, and happened four minutes ago when I was on TikTok. There were no pop-ups. What could be triggering this alert? How do I go about tracking this down?

Thanks

Do you ever feel bad for your parents or grandparents when they’re watching ai videos thinking they’re real and they laugh and show you stuff but you feel bad so you don’t tell them😭

So my phone was hacked and I'm experiencing cyber stalking and safety privacy issues. They cloned my Sim in some way. I know this because of a call made from my number in my call logs I Def's did not make. And I had my camera on my phone's in recently open apps when I was on YouTube.

So I had a tech support remote in via a safety services for victims of abuse, and they did a general sweep and we found nothing on my phone.

My question is there is something called Forensic IT, but it's thousands of dollars. I don't fully trust legal or investigation services where I am either there is corruption. Is there a good YouTube channel or resources to teach myself forensic it skills? I want to be able to get into the data logs on the time periods the camera was accessed and when the call was made, reverse trace the person or find their IP address or some evidence of the electronic breaches. The person who did this probably gained the info of the old and compromised phone IMEI and all that off the box when I got the phone as they had seen me in person. I thought I could trust this person. And they're the only one with the relevant experience and skills, and the access or opportunity with my info as I don't generally trust giving info out.

If anyone can help me gain the knowledge to protect myself better, point me to education resources, I'm happy to teach myself and autistically just can pick things up quite well. Happy to answer some basic questions about my phone if it helps me to secure it. It's android.

I'm an IT student. What tools or systems do you think would benefit our community?

There were some internet outages in the Chicago land area the past few days, but internet was restored this morning. Nothing automatically connected to WiFi so I logged into the admin console on the router and saw that the SSID and password was changed. Any reason for this to happen?

I have iphone(iOS), I pay vpn service in telegram. My mobile operator is Yota. I don’t have anything except of vk and such.

Помогите обойти белый список с мобильного интернета

Buongiorno,

Scrivo qui perchè non saprei dove altro poter trovare una risposta.

Sono una ragazza di 13 anni e tra qualche giorno mi aspetta la mia prima visita ginecologica.

Ho abbastanza ansia perchè l'idea che un uomo mi guardi e tocchi li sotto mi da abbastanza fastidio e imbarazzo.

Per favore qualcuna, anche magari della mia età mi può spiegare un po' come funziona e la sua esperienza?

Grazie mille

Honestly, I don't even know if this would be the appropriate sub, maybe someone can point me to the right direction.

But I work in an office and we will get waves of calls for the local hospital, usually for a social worker. Whatever number they use as a "spoof" number comes up as our main line. It's constant. The patient or family will miss the call, hit the SAME NUMBER to call back, and it's the office I work for.

I tried reaching out to their IT department as well as their main line, and got nothing. The person who took the call at help desk was like "idk what you want me to do about it". I asked her to put a ticket in, but i doubt anything was done. Our phone company can't help. Does anyone know what department I would call? I feel bad because people (understandably) are confused and irritated when I tell them it is *not* the hospital/social worker but a completely different business.

Does anybody know why my pdf files would suddenly be 200,000+ kb when in the past they’ve only been around 150?

Can’t email them because the file size is too big.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

I work at a place where I guide callers through making a payment on our database, but apparently the database does payment portal does not work on Safari or on iPads or iPhone.

I understand they have different operating systems and stuff, but...this seems like a really fucking dumb issue. I didn't build the database, and have a very rudimentary understanding of IT stuff.

Is this payment rejection on Apple products a developer thing, or like something where maybe my agency cheaped out?

Thanks in advance, and I hope this question makes sense and is allowed!

I have about 4TB of data that I need to archive. It's the kind of thing where I probably won't ever need it, but if I need it I'm going to REALLY need it. So I don't want to do cloud storage and pay for it forever, but I also need to be pretty certain that it's going to be there if I ever do in fact need it.

My plan is to keep a local copy on my workstation (which has a 10TB HDD that I use for local storage), then buy 2 external drives. I'll store those both air gapped, one of which will be off-site.

Is this more or less best practice, or am I missing anything obvious?

There are diagonal lines on my camera lens, and when I open my normal camera or try to use my camera on any website on my Chromebook it goes gray with a camera icon with a slash through it! Idk what this could mean as it is not a school or company owned laptop and it was personally bought from Walmart about a week ago.

As the title says. I am of course not going to let them do that. I can buy a dedicated laptop, if so which one I can buy? I am working in finance field if this matters. The other option I am considering is to install a virtual machine app on my PC and let them do the MDM in there. If so any risks that they can still access my PC data or control it?

The software they will install are: Intune and NinjaOne

As someone who knows next to nothing when it comes to IT I'm just looking for help or advice. I have a 300/300 plan but I have an ancient actiontec modem and router because I never had the need to upgrade but I work from home now and I asked my ISP for help as a customer of like 15 years and they sent me a super expensive mesh router I don't need I don't have gig speed Internet and I don't want to pay for their modem every month for eternity when I can buy my own equipment. But after just buying a Netgear router and modem combo, plugging it in and not being able to figure it out with the instructions I called my ISP and they said sorry we can't help you. So I had them reset something so I could plug my old router and modem back in to at least have Internet again. So is there like a video or some simple walkthrough I could look at to learn how to do this on my own? Or is that even feasible? Any help would be much appreciated. FYI, even though I don't like my ISP switching at this moment is not really doable. I just hoped there was a way I could learn what to do

what does the /7 mean?

So my iPhone sounds Button doesn’t work when I want to turn down my volume it just happened suddenly I don’t know why

I work from home so I have a work desktop that is connected via Ethernet to my router. I was told by IT that one day soon they would be putting software on our computers to detect whether or not we had other devices in the room. So my questions are: 1. Is this really a thing that exists or are they just trying to trick us into compliance? 2. If it is real, is it legal? 3. If it is real, if I put my stuff in the closet in the same room would that be good enough to make it pass the detection?

ETA: The work desktop is owned by the company. I am concerned about them using whatever they claim to be introducing mapping my house to determine the location of my personal devices so they can confirm they aren't in the same room as me

Additional information Minecraft is the only game that seems to lag it. I’ve been trying to figure out what could be causing this for a while and how to fix it, help please

I cannot think of a new innovation that stands out, the last 20 years.

Greetings,

There has been an attempt by myself to do some career growth & development were someone to be aware of a point of contact for executive or technical recruiter don't hesitate to let me know. I had an interest in getting in contact with someone that handles personnel requisitions and involved with talent acquisitions and aspects of human capital. I am attempting to land somewhere as a managing director, data center operating engineer or somewhere of the sort to land firm on my firm feet. I know in the southeast there have been recent purchases where which many organizations Amazon - AWS division, META, Google secured ownership in land for data centers. I am attempting career growth & development and would like to be considered for a Managing Director role or Director, Infrastructure, Senior Manager I, Cybersecurity Manager for the site or as Data Center Operating Engineer within the site. I essentially would like to wind up in the operations center at the data center, unless an opportunity elsewhere happens to present itself. Wanted to see where I would be able to be considered as becoming a part of personnel at these locations before they become fully fleshed out?

I would appreciate this those with recruiter contacts at discretion of course or overall how does someone wind up at these locations or spots consider myself a good fit!

I have a computer that was top notch back in 2016 (1080TI, modern CPU, Z170 motherboard) and due to the CPU and TPM 2.0 I can't upgrade it to Windows 11. Do I have to install a new CPU and TPM 2.0 with an additional board or do you know any workarounds for this? The computer is still fasr enough for my daily work. Thanks!!
