Definitely don’t this in the past (Linksys WRT54G!) but let’s be honest, the kind of people running 10yo Dlink routers aren’t going to flash new firmware, let alone OpenWRT or even know to look for it. It would have to come that way from the factory. And even then I doubt most people even do regular updates, sadly.

The phrase “Haha So True!” (referred to as ‘HST’ henceforth to save space and out of respect for the readers’ precious time who would rather engage in intellectual conversations elsewhere than keep repeating “Haha So True!” over and over again

HST

Absolutely. There’s a lot in my neighborhood… And it’s annoying when there’s a perfectly good sidewalk right there.

The people being deported AND the people who weren’t.

Yeah, we definitely need less people in this country. I’m sure it’ll help fill all the job vacancies and increase productivity and GDP.

I will make sure to bring this up when any republicans complain that are so many vacancies because no one wants to work anymore.

Gotta give him time to reload.

My boss still uses these to this day. A while ago he found a deal and bought like 10, new in box. He has one everywhere and backups to spare.

I feel like a large part of this is that it’s consistent and shared hate. Like going to a shitty movie with friends or being stuck at the DMV/doctors waiting room, or dealing with taxes or whatever… people can complain because they know other people in the group will share their complaints and misery loves company.

It doesn’t matter if what you’re complaining about can be easily fixed, and they don’t want to hear a better way, they just want to bitch and have people reciprocate the same misery.

with the US-based security vendor on November 11 urging customers to pull their management interfaces off the public internet or restrict them to known IP addresses.

Why would you EVER put management interfaces on the public internet? What terrible decisions led them down that path? VPN is so quick and easy at a minimum.

I still remember going to see the first LoTR film and right after it fades out, hearing a lady yell “you mean there’s another one?!”

Last time around he went with Scott Pruitt, the climate change denier and ally of the fossil fuel industry.

So, what are their names?

If there’s one thing I’ve learned about hobby based trade shows, it’s that the highly experienced, obsessed, informed people in obscure hobbies tend to want to spread their knowledge.

Don’t obsess over not knowing… put yourself out there and talk to people and get them to tell you what they find exciting. They will unload knowledge on you and be excited to do so.

I’ve often wondered if the authorities would care about a community run FOSS plate scanner network that publicly advertised the location of all government vehicles. I mean, it’s public data, right? A nice web front end with built in pattern detection shouldn’t be too bad. Plate scanners can be built with Raspberry Pi’s, so it’s fairly cheap commodity hardware. You’d need a good number though. Coupled with additional hardware, you could put them on cars as well I suppose.

She’ll likely just blame it on Obama and “the libs” and abortion, and “the gays”, and then post on Facebook about that. At least that’s what mine will do.

So let’s burn the gifts? I don’t think I’ve ever received a gift I lit on fire.

Fwiw, this article says the name of the app is Clue. As a dude, I have no need of such an app, but as a security minded individual, will encourage my female friends to use it if needed and hope the developers continue to have security in mind.

Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin has blocked a bill in the state that would have banned law enforcement from enforcing search warrants for menstrual data stored in tracking apps on mobile phones or other electronic devices,

And as a Virginian, I will once again vote against the enemy of security and privacy: Glenn Youngkin.

There’s a number on there. I’ve personally used Grav, I hear ghost and Hugo are good. They’re more limited, but they’re much faster and more secure. As someone who had to support Wordpress blogs for years, the amount of security issues on that thing always made me stay far from it for any thing personal.

Can’t wait to hear more from Trump about “rocket man”.
