Its been a couple of months but I don’t remember that requirement…

I love their switches but for routing/firewall I stick to PFSense.

Personally I use OpenWRT for access points.

HDtracks.

That being said if you’re buying FLACs from major labels for $40 while indie bands release albums in FLAC via band camp for $3, you’re a chump.

The members of Led Zeppelin that are still alive don’t need the money nearly as much, and even if they did most of it isn’t going to them anyways.

Most redditors and twitter users where too lazy to make the jump because the idea of more than one instance is somehow confusing.

The ones who even knew are the ones who are usually considered more computer literate than the average bear, since most people don’t know what fediverse is.

Lower your bar.

A pirated copy of Win 10 LTSC, since it’s the only version you should a been tunning any who.

Fuck dual booting. Virtualize that shit.

Glad my FreeIPA infra runs on rocky.

Redhat can suck my girlcock.

Bought judges belong against a wall, so that we can pick them last in dodgeball.

Yeah but it was a luxury, and most likely an RX-only unit that only had a GPS radio. Even if you had a 2g cell radio in the 90’s in your car it’d be incredibly limited, and horrendously expensive for something you could carry in your pocket.

These days even the cheapest model of Honda Civic will have a modern internet connected network of microcontrollers and computers which all receive OTA updates, many of which handle telemetry.

You also have to assume that your government has never illegally obtained data it shouldn’t have in a shady manner.

It also doesn’t bode well for what happens if your country falls into fascism, as all that data will still exist to be systematically, and retroactively used against you.

The former is true, however anyone who’s ever looked at firewall logs will tell you plenty of skids are trying to get free domestic US IP addresses off of vulnerable home networks using automated means.

That being said that has really has jack shit to do with personal privacy/security against state-scale dragnet surveillance.

If you have a device that’s actively connected to a cellular network, and has been while in your home or work, then your only option is to leave it behind or turn it off. That includes your car if it was made in the past decade, if nothing else, so it can catch OTA firmware updates, and send telemetry data.

GPS and location services don’t mean shit when your carrier keeps logs of where you’ve been based on cell-tower triangulation.

No most millennials are also too lazy because they stopped giving a shit about computers when it stopped being a requirement to use the internet like 10-15 years ago because smartphones.

Most who did haven’t in at least a decade, and wouldn’t unless you put a gun to their head.

For some reason the vast majority of people seem to just want to ignore the machines that literally run our society, and its fucking maddening.

FFS the amount of people who I work with in IT and even then don’t really give a shit about they’re daily computing is absolutely fucking baffling.

Its really just a smattering of people from all ages who actually know how to use a computer because they’re actually interested in doing so.

Recently bought a cheap set from spectre for $150. Forgot to check the res, and it only does 1080, but then again 90% of what I do with that TV is play Switch anyhow. I have a nicer ultra wide on my desk for everything else.

The TV itself works well. The first time set up is the optional search for digital OTA TV channels, and the only “smart” feature is that you can plug in a flash drive with MP3/FLACs and use it as a music player for some reason, would’ve been cool if it played mp4s too. Then again, that’s what the HDMI in is for.

The menu/feature set feels very 2009 and I love it for that. Luckily the picture, bezel, and price don’t.

That plus open shell is what windows 10 should have been.

Give me a fucking job then.

I’ve been trying to get the fuck out of the DoD for years. No one fucking wants me. I’m so tired of trying. Fuck. I’ve been writing software since I was twelve and the most they let me do is automate software installs with fucking powershell ADT. Fucking poweshell, a god-damned toy language, and I don’t even get to write it myself.

No one wants to hire me and I hate it.

You know, figuring out you’re a girl does wonders for your self worth. Y’all should fuckin’ try it sometime.

NIST are bureaucrats sure, but bureaucrats with lots and lots of practical experience.

On one hand what’s going on is a travesty, on another we already tried this. It didn’t work. We fucked up by meddling with the middle east in the first place.

I don’t really know there’s a solution for the west at this point, more than just a lesson to learn about minding your own fucking business next time.

How do you fix an oppressive society when half of its citizens seem more than willing to oppress the other half?

This comment fucking blows, I abhore comments that start with ‘i’.
