A Gillette open comb safety razor from the 1930s. But it’s had the handle replaced with a Gillette tech handle from the 40s.

In an image search, I found someone selling the exact same Frankenrazor which leads me to believe this may have been a popular mod back in the day.

It really depends on how much you value your time and how good you are with configuration

A QNAP or Synology will work and be pretty simple to configure out of the box. Installing custom software is possible, but can be tricky as they require you to enable sideloading and custom apps can be hard to find. Both have supported app stores with available apps to do what you’re looking for (QNAP has apps for both torrents and Plex. Not sure about Synology)

However, you will get way more bang for your buck by building one from scratch using something like TrueNAS and the Arr stack, but this can require a fair bit of technical knowledge about configuring containers and securing network services(Especially if you want them to be accessible remotely)

Most people here do selfhosting as a hobby and as a result, the time spent trying new configurations is negligible as it wouldn’t be much of a hobby otherwise.

Tapatio, Valentina’s, or Cholula.

IIRC, they only do this if you’re logged in with a Microsoft account.

Bitlocker is disabled by default if you only use local accounts

Not that it helps now, but you can also dump your bitlocker recovery key through powershell and save it independently.

At the end of the interview when they ask “do you have any other questions for us”, if it went well and you decide that you want to work there, ask about what your first day looks like compared to an average day after you’re settled in.

This can be a little social engineering push to have your interviewer shift their perception of you into someone that is already hired.

I have considered it. I agree to your proposal.

I tend to just take the defaults when I’m deploying. I wouldn’t get any benefit of having home or tmp on a separate partition, but it’s nice that it’s an option.

This is the short of it. Tate explains in no uncertain terms that society is to blame for the insecurities they feel, and provides an easy answer on how to fix it that kind of works, because it emulates self-confidence.

Man’s unlocked the secret code to infinite money.

If I pay for everything with a debit card it doesn’t count as real money because it’s just a number on a screen and therefore doesn’t exist.

Somewhat Ironically, the Pixels are the only supported devices for GrapheneOS.

As relevant now as it was 10 years ago

Usually yes. In some cases, companies will block access to known VPN IPs outright.

But most of the time, the cost of policing that is way higher than the revenue they’d get from the handful of VPN users that decide to go through proper channels rather than decide not to engage, or worse, spread word of their anti-consumer practices and potentially lose legitimate business.

Definitely vaporwave. Something about the chill beats and the 90s tech advertising aesthetic really does it for me

This is the correct answer. MFA should be enforced for literally every account you have, and the method should be app-based or a hardware token.

It turns out that people en masse are lazy and will use the same simple password for all their accounts and then wonder how they got hacked. People in tech for the past 30 years or so struggled with the difference between theory and practice when it came to user psychology, and I am happy that we are finally starting to realize the user psychology aspect and just force them to be secure.

I have played through many Sierra games, although I was always more partial to the LucasArts adventure games. I feel like they had better writing, and the idea that there was no failure state meant that you didn’t end up in unwinnable situations.

I didn’t know about the staff situation there though, that’s super interesting. I just assumed that they had a small number of teams working on each title that each worked under the Williams’

I used to play a ton of games throughout my teenage years but fell off in my 20s. Now in my late 30s I still keep up with gaming news and discussion, but I rarely actually play through games anymore. I go through maybe one a year.

You’re right that the discussion has changed, and that’s due to a number of factors. Mostly, new games are pretty configurable and will run on pretty much any modern hardware. Long gone are the days where you simply couldn’t play something unless you ponied up for a Voodoo 2. Add to that, that PC hardware is a lot more standard now. Gaming enthusiasts dont need to learn a bunch of competing hardware standards to keep up anymore.

And the other side is that with the introduction of microtransactions, keeping an eye on how companies are trying to monetize games is important. AAA games these days have Hollywood movie budgets and if they’re not profitable, then hundreds of people are out of a job. Looking back, it’s pretty amazing what 10-15 people could accomplish with a fraction of the budget and time that modern developers get(indie games notwithstanding)

I don’t have a million dollars so I cant afford Dijon ketchup :(

It was a tragic day when I grew up and could no longer see why kids love the taste of Cinnamon Toast Crunch

I haven’t tried to use hamachi in years so I’m not sure about a solution to your problem. However, I can strongly recommend Zerotier as a potential alternative
