A hole would be something, this is NOTHING!

If your router/firewall is configured to let these broadcasts through you have a problem. If it is working correctly and you have an attacker on your lan? You have already lost.

Those damn spike traps!

My wife rolls her eyes how every time I see a Honda Passport I say “My voice is my passport, verify me”.

I love my shields, I have both the tube and the pro in different rooms. I like the Jellyfin AndroidTV app more than Kodi. I have side loaded a different launcher to avoid the ads.

I would love to try and replace it, but it needs to be able to handle 4K UHD rips with hdr and the original sound tracks in ATMOS or whatever.

ON TOP OF SPA-GHETTI!!!

Side note. Don’t use hardware acceleration with TDARR. You will get much better encodes with software encoding, which is great for archival and saving storage.

Use hardware acceleration with Jellyfin for transcoding code on the fly for a client that needs it.

If you know what your client specs are, you can use TDARR to reencode everything to what they need and then you won’t have to transcode anything with Jellyfin.

Reading this makes me want to find a Linux distribution that does not use the gnu stuff at all.

My favorite thing is when banks don’t allow passwords that have spaces in them or are more than 12 characters long.

Honestly there should be a standard of what security means, like how passwords are stored and how TOTP is implemented, and if a bank doesn’t implement it then THEY are responsible for any “identity theft” that happens on their site, not the users.

I would say that both osx and Linux are flavors of Unix, not that macs run Linux.

Wow, I think I had an Okidata modem at one point. I haven’t thought about that in a long time.

I got a Canon MF3010 laser printer a few years back. It is attached to a print server made out of an old Mac laptop I had. It has been great. I can print to it from anything, Mac, Windows, Linux, iOS and I have had to replace the toner once since I got it.

So…just a normal Friday then.

I think that having a strong public domain is good for everyone. For instance properties like Sherlock Holmes really took off once it was in the public domain and people could write spin-offs and whatnot without worry that a copyright lawyer would come along and sue them.

Linux is the same thing, Amazon using the kernel and stuff to build an OS on doesn’t take anything away from anyone else who uses Linux as a desktop or server environment, and in fact can lead to some good pass back, even if it is just that the devices are easier to root. Take a look at the Open-wrt project, where Linksys built their router on top of a Linux kernel and it led to a whole ecosystem of open routers. People went out of their way to buy a WRT-42G just with the intent of rooting it, and Linksys got their money either way.

Get a multi port USB charger. I have some from Anker that have 2 usb-c ports and 2 usb-a ports. Can charge everything from my laptop to all my gadgets.

You can’t have enough usb chargers.

Endless Sky is great. It was inspired by the old Escape Velocity games by Ambrosia Software.
