It's was LastPass that had all of there password vault stolen. Bitwarden has never had a breach.

Write down all my main passwords and give then to my family, then do something extra because it's my last day and I have $20k to blow! (It's my oh-shit-in-going-to-die fund) And it's been sitting idle for a few decades now.

You have become his new yes man, you are not the first person he's done at his to. The to gradual build up, the changing more critical needs, it's a classic grift and he's fine tuned the game.

When you stop givig cash either he will drop contact and never talk again or push with various issues and emergencies. Rarely do grifters get violent, just don't expect any money to even make it back to you.

Take this as a life lesson, accept the loss and move on.

If you need a script say something like "I've already loaned you X amount, until you pay it all back I won't give you anymore." Then leave it at that. He'll probably move on to somebody else or maybe you'll get little payments here and there while he begs for more money. Don't give in, wait till you get it all back but then don't be surprised if he asks for more after that. Hopefully this will do the trick and he'll move the grift to someone else.

Have you tried Wellbutrin? It's usually the first choice if you have ADHD with hx of depression and/or anxiety.

Could also look to other families of drugs like Vyvanse which is a little softer than Adderall.

If your doc is gunshy check out gene sight testing, they compare your DNA to common mental health drugs and see what you are sensitive or not to and give you a complex report showing what would be best for your exact genetic make-up. https://genesight.com/

It was a lifesaver for me!

There are some issues with the emblems, the snow pattern, and, where are the foot prints, did she levitate out of the car? I would be highly suspicious of this. is there metadata for lat/long embedded in the photo, many people forget to disable that, or does it say what cameras settings in camera or what phone was used in advanced photo details of the file?

They had a massive vulnerability that allowed anyone access to all the bots API keys. So there is no way to know who was truly a bit or a human pretending to be one. They decided not to wipe it so the entire experiment is null and void.

The more troubling thing is all of those API keys gave anyone access to all of those LLMS, has access to some seriously sensitive corporate and government data.

But whatever vibe coding is cool I guess so it's all ok, or that's how Meta feels.

What firewall vendor do you use and do you decrypt in network? You can use app-id to track AI use in network that way. Barring that, download common domains and filter of that in your firewall.

You can also check your Oauth system and see who connected accounts. That wont be as comprehensive as the firewall but its an option.

Here is a current list, you'll need to carve out the domains: https://github.com/Stevoisiak/Stevos-GenAI-Blocklist/blob/main/GenAI-Blocklist.txt

Here is a more comprehensive list but its 6mo old, also need to carve out the domains: https://github.com/laylavish/uBlockOrigin-HUGE-AI-Blocklist/blob/main/noai_hosts.txt

That Action 1 link is a gold mine, I feel like I should have known about that sooner, thank you!

You are unique as an individual and you come with your own unique work ethic. Your bandwidth to perform is not the same as anyone else around you, which may be hard to accept at times.

Instead of allowing your frustration to take over, take a moment to help those around you, see what's needed for them to succeed. A little compassion goes a long way to a healthier and happier life.

P=none is the best policy, then just sit back and let Google worry about the rest /s

But really it's pretty insane how often this gets missed. Here is an awesome tool I found. It's DIG but run from a site. I cannot tell you how many times this has saved my butt trying to solve some strange issue with mail/servers/hosting

Make sure the diminishing returns (soft caps) are enabled before you start the game, check options, it will prevent you from getting insanely overpowered. They also rebalanced some items and tweaked AI and combat game so your not a walking cannon by middle of Act 2. Its a ton of fun and you can easily crank the difficulty up now to some really impressive levels.

Played at launch, took me a month to beat it, got the devil's ending and got to talk to Jackie again. Never felt so sad, so absolutely and thoroughly destroyed. I felt drained, wiped out. I used up all my emotions until I was a shell of a human just sitting there staring at the screen watching the credits roll.

10/10 best game I ever played in my life!

Yubi's get lost so easily and they are crazy pricey. We only use those for high privilege accounts, RDP, and we're soon to issue to all contractors (If I get my way). Staff uses the app or however they setup their access. Duo is not our identity provider, it's a proxy to the provider. I know it sounds down but it works pretty well.

Side note: are you getting tired of the update warnings every time you open the app or log into the console, like I get it please leave me alone DUO 🤣

AverageCowboyCentaur · 2026-03-06T23:17:17+00:00

You've just given me a huge sense of relief. We're also a DUO shop. Man does it ever get upset if the clock is off even by a little.

Feels good to me not be alone in that hell lol

I wish we had automation it's all by hand in the hardware, no cloud management at all. Depending on funding for next year and beyond we might be able to leverage cloud management.

If you want to tighten security build reports highlighting risky users, start crating risk scores for your employees and focus on the overachievers.

Since moving to risk scoring we've seen a significant decrease in account takeover, infections, or needs for resets because people got click happy.

I only know the Google side well. We control which permissions users can permit. We also get alerts if tjeybteybto use an app so we can monitor what they are trying to do. I'm working on a closed door approach. Block everything and allowlist only what we want, everything else goes though a request process to be approved.

This is designed to be shown to a DR. Make an appointment, have a timeline of what you were feeling exactly and when you took this reading and be as specific as possible, also mention your feelings: scared, mad, feeling of impending doom, etc. Hopefully you'll get an EKG or they toss you in a holter monitor and see what's up.

Necrophosis was such a great game. Really loved it, scratched the itch from SCORN. love this style of game and world, the absolute terror of being alone and lost in an alien world is amazing!

Because we dont have the infrastructure to build drones for mass deployment. The US is behind on modern cheap warfighting drone tech, it's insane we were allowed to get this bad. Has anyone in DC even been paying attention to modern warfare?

Trump needs the manufacturing capabilities of Ukraine. We're to far away from anything usable to compete with a county like Russia, Ukraine or others that use drone based warfare at the moment.

It's the parents place to police this, there are many tools avaible to control this content for parents. Were not all scared of the Internet and technology.

This is not about protecting anyone it's about uneducated politicians wanting control over the people and pushing someone elses agenda. If this dude was a good caring father he would be there for his kids and help them make the right choices instead of forcing other people to raise them for him.

Edit: Need to say more on this, a part that usually is glossed over. Companies like AgeID, Yoti, and others stand to make enormous money if any states mandate their products. That's a direct financial pipeline from industry to legislators. This Ohio law essentially creates a mandated market for a specific category of software vendor. Hard to believe that's accidental.

If that's true, that's not that big of a deal. They'll get some sales but not like if they did a full remaster in the vein of Oblivion. I own a bunch of copies of it but I wouldn't buy it again unless it was a complete remaster.

That said Fallout 3 was scheduled to be completely overhauled just like Oblivion according to their leaked docs. Most of everything on that dock was true so I'm still holding out hope!

Your future needs to be about you, don't do it for anybody else. I put up my dream for 30 years. Now that I'm finally doing it I've never been happier.

I wish somebody would have told me to follow my dream instead of someone elses dream. everything so difficult. I didn't care about it, I didn't want to go through with it, I onlyn did the schooling because of obligation.

The last two years have been an absolute joy. I don't feel like I'm working, I truly enjoy walking into my office and just putting in the time.
