I got a CA-53 recently myself, for much the same reason.
Nobody ever said anything about my Apple Watch, but holy crap does everyone love a calculator watch.
(Which is hilarious because as a kid, I was teased as a nerd for having such a thing.)
Nobody thought it was possible, says man who led project because he thought he could make it possible.
Also, this looks like quantum entanglement which is a thing that’s hardly a new concept and/or considered impossible, so uh, dude needs to get out of clickbait mode and ship a working example instead.
Well, I fully expect him to step on his dick, but I did not expect him to also kick himself in the balls while doing so.
Congrats Matt, rarely are my expectations of dumb behavior exceeded so spectacularly!
Here’s a crazy idea: make the CAPTCHAs so complicated humans can’t complete them.
That way if someone does, you know they’re a bot.
I should probably patent that or something. (Is joke, etc.)
I’m disappointed in that writer.
Better phrasing: Sega started as a rock’n’roll breath of fresh air that did what Nintendon’t.
Sure, but the way this usually works is that the government tells you to do something and if you don’t, they’ll find someone (or a couple of someones) on that list, arrest them, and charge them with a crime.
Doesn’t matter if they did the crime, and it doesn’t matter if they’d be convicted, but the play is to keep your friends in jail until you capitulate to what they want. This is actually something that’s happened with tech companies before, like what they did with GoDaddy’s C-level in India.
The problem is that there’s no damn way I’d want to be arrested by the upcoming US administration, because I’d bet $100 that their playbook will portray not doing what they’re demanding as a national security or terrorism offense, and if you’ve been watching ANYTHING for the last damn near 25 years, that’s a free pass for them to basically just vanish you until they feel like doing otherwise.
It’s fantastic leverage against organizations that have US people and are, presumably, not willing to just let their friends spend who-knows amount of time in prison, and could probably result in some cooperation.
And I’m about to both get downvoted and WELL AKSHULLY’d about how you can’t just vanish people under the US justice system, and sure, you’re technically correct. Except we’ve passed law after law after law since 9/11 that have basically given the government the ability to do any damn thing they please if they call you a national security risk or terrorist, up to and including Gitmo, in case you’ve forgotten that existed: which you shouldn’t have, because we STILL have prisoners sitting there.
This is doomer as fuck, and horribly unlikely, but so is a demand to stuff backdoors into everything. But, if we head down that road, the only safe software will be ones that can’t be blackmailed like this which is essentially none of the major projects.
Well, yes, it does: https://www.debian.org/intro/organization
But the corporation that handles all their funding and owns their trademarks is in the US, so they’re possibly subject to the same pressure. And of course a good number of those people in that org tree are in the US, so again, same issue.
My point was more ‘this is silly, because if you REALLY think that, there’s nobody and no project that’s got any ties at all to the US that can be considered safe, and you should maybe get rid of all your computing devices now’, rather than an intent to say that Debian or anyone there is at more or less risk.
Perhaps it’s just me, but they’ve been releasing a good number of actually good things, though?
Persona, Yakuza, PSO, and even the fact the Sonic movies were… good? Or at least entertaining enough, which is a victory for a video game movie series, heh.
I mean, if you want to carry that line of reasoning out, the Linux kernel is governed under a US-based foundation, so should the kernel itself be suspect?
How about FreeBSD? Or something like Debian? Or Ubuntu, which isn’t US-based but they’re in a typically cooperating jurisdiction?
You’re def being paranoid and somewhat irrational, since it’s unlikely to happen and if it did, it’s not like you could trust anything at all anyways.
I’m sure an AI babysitter won’t be immediately and utterly broken and bypassed by every single kid in these “classes”.
(Seriously: we’re talking about 8-12 year olds here and the absolutely are smart enough and incentivized to break the ever-loving crap out of this stupid idea.)
I’d seriously consider unifi gear, like the other comments seem to have also suggested.
The only thing you don’t get is ethernet drops out of the APs or anything like that, but the UAPs in a mesh configuraiton could proabbly do everything you want, unless you have a shockingly large piece of property.
underestimate how much work Mozilla does in standards and low-level shared API’s via w3c
Oh, I didn’t mean to disparage the work they do: I know it’s important and extensive. I’ve been a Firefox user since, well, it was called Netscape. It’s a critical piece of software.
I was mostly just rolling my eyes at the sheer panic they’re having with the only funding source they’ve bothered to cultivate going away, along with the fact that a good portion of that money is spent on things that aren’t the browser, and frankly, don’t bring a lot of value to the table or matter in the slightest.
Dumping the Corporation baggage and making the Foundation strongly independent makes a lot more sense than begging to let Google keep paying them, which seems to be their approach, at least based on that open letter.
These drives aren’t for people who care how much they cost, they’re for people who have a server with 16 drive bays and need to double the amount of storage they had in them.
(Enterprise gear is neat: it doesn’t matter what it costs, someone will pay whatever you ask because someone somewhere desperately needs to replace 16tb drives with 32tb ones.)
But the article says they used Yahoo once! (When, I assume, Yahoo outbid Google.)
I agree we need an independent browser, but right now Firefox is about as independent as my cat, and they’re both a bit deluded into thinking that’s not the case.
The first thing that I have to ask: do we need Firefox-the-business providing Firefox-the-browser, or are they just dragging around a lot of Google-induced baggage that’s otherwise worthless.
I have a strong feeling on that one, but hey.
What’s your budget?
A $200 budget is going to get you VERY different options than a $1000 budget, especially since you’re wanting to connect multiple buildings.
It’s viable, but when you’re buying a DAS for the drives, figure out what the USB chipset is and make sure it’s not a flaky piece of crap.
Things have gotten better, but some random manufacturers are still using trash bridge chips and you’ll be in for a bad time. (By which I mean your drives will vanish in the middle of a write, and corrupt themselves.)
Yeah, I remember the ‘grandma wanted to die for the economy!’ ghouls.
And the ‘it’s just a flu!’ people pissed me the fuck off. Like have you morons never HAD the flu? It’s not like the flu is somehow pleasant and fun. You don’t want the flu! Nobody wants the flu! You idiots got a flu shot, get your damn covid shot.
Okay so you’re able to access it via the IP it’s hosted on, but NOT via the domain name in the tunnel?
Is the working IP a public or private one?
My $5 is that you don’t have the tunnel configured properly and that’s why you’re having issues, but maybe not.
Also, what specifically did you put in the config file? Usually they’re not asking for an IP, but the FQDN of the site.
Am I missing something, or is this just the argo tunnel thing Cloudflare has offered for quite a while?
ArchiveBox is great.
I’m big into retro computing and general old electronics shit, and I archive everything I come across that’s useful.
I just assume anything and everything on some old dude’s blog about a 30 year old whatever is subject to vanishing at any moment, and if it was useful once, it’ll be useful again later probably so fuck it, make a copy of everything.
Not like storage is expensive, anyway.
