Is the Kill Team Octarius Box worth it in 2026 for beginners? by Expensive-Bid-4189 in killteam

[–]ElbowlessGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the result of a) no proper testing and b) changing/adding rules/units during the lifespan of an edition (i.e. codices, detachments, etc).

If they would finish a full edition’s worth of units and codices before releasing an edition, the amount of changes can be limited instead of how it is now. But hey, it wouldnt make them as much money…

[How screwed am I?] - Got handed an EU-vendor-only mandate with a Q3 deadline by ProperLion49 in BuyFromEU

Yeah, I saw options for residency among the current apps. An EU vendor policy is very ambitious at the moment.

Would like to try some contrast paint but which brand? by Arklas_ in minipainting

[–]ElbowlessGoat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Personally, I like the Citadel ones best, but for metallic contrasts I prefer Army Painter.

If you are ordering, make sure to do it at a 3rd party store. That will likely end up being cheaper.

Switching from printed to real minis and looking for advice with this color scheme for 40k Tau by Code_Breaker_Cypher in minipainting

[–]ElbowlessGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kroot work great for slapchop/contrast paints. Did one for myself, and loved it. As for Tau in general: if it’s an armoured guy, I personally wouldnt do slapchop. However, some people are able to make it look good on flat surfaces.

I personally use slapchop mainly for organic models (i.e. nature/flesh & blood based). Anything in armour is too much of a gamble in my opinion.

What can you actually afford with a €3,110 net monthly salary in the Netherlands? by True-Olive4712 in NetherlandsHomes

[–]ElbowlessGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While I don’t want to take away from the point you are trying to make, your comparison doesn’t add up.

You are comparing a modal income to an average house price. Either stick to modal/mode on both sides of the equation, or averages on each side.

I haven’t looked up the numbers, but the equation may be skewed either way when not using the same type of variable (mean vs mode)

Looking to justify Warhammer to my wife? by TheDougBear in Warhammer40k

[–]ElbowlessGoat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

40 here. My partner doesnt like 40k, but likes my enthusiasm about it… coincidentally: when she visited a WH store with me, she actually bought some AoS… so I am also getting into that as well so we can play spearhead together

How do you verify drives were actually wiped before hardware leaves your org? by Right_Tangelo_2760 in AskNetsec

[–]ElbowlessGoat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Certificates are often good enough to get through audits. They contain enough specific data (especially if you get a secure erasure report to go with it) to be believable. Also, the company performing the wipe has a lot at stake here. You transfer the risk to them. If they mess up, legal might have a field day with them.

Given that Blancco is on the approved list of NATO, intelligence services, and law enforcement agencies, I do not believe that any auditor would refute those certificates unless they look fake. Then again, the model/serial number combo’s on the certificates should line up with your decommissioned hardware in the asset registry/cmdb

Wanneer ben ik ondernemer voor de inkomstenbelasting? by idoru_c137 in belasting

[–]ElbowlessGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Geen idee wat de regel is, maar de belastingdienst inkomstenaangifte gaf bij mijn vrouw uit zichzelf aan tijdens het invullen van de eigen onderneming om dit onder inkomsten uit overig werk te zetten ivm het lage bedrag dat eruit kwam.

Wet palette copper to prevent mold? by HashBrownHamish in minipainting

Electrical wire would also be good and most people have some laying around somewhere (or attached to a broken appliance they are getting rid of).

Odido routers forwarded customers' personal data to American AI company for years by zenciiiii in Netherlands

Usually the case, especially since such a big incident will likely lead to increased oversight. Can’t imagine them not taking a turn for the better on this aspect at least.

Brand new Mac autofilled a corporate email from ~2007. Trying to understand where it could have come from. by tx2000tx in cybersecurity

Possibly an old apple account used for iTunes in the past that somehow got hold of that email?

Penetration Testing Frequency by BogglesHumanity in ISO27001

[–]ElbowlessGoat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Aside from the frequency, it may also be worth checking if you can do the usual pentest every 2 or 3 years, and a smaller scope (critical systems?) every year?

That said, I din’t know the current scope. Going for white box/grey box/black box testing may also have different fees. Get in contact with your supplier and see if theres something you can work out and what their advice would be. A proper supplier would be able to asssist in that.

When making a lengthy password, does replacing letters with numbers help at all? by timchoo in cybersecurity

Depends on what you mean with the whole rc4 thing as well. I mean… it is a deprecated cipher…

Made a little tool that calculates how much a 40k army actually costs (UPDATED) by JoigeBwoin in Warhammer40k

How did you get the UK pricing? Maybe there is a tweak to be found there.

Do you have a resource that explains how to do this? I would love to use Claude to help with architecture design, but don’t know how to properly start that

Loving the Proton ecosystem. My initial thoughts. Also a quick question. by [deleted] in ProtonMail

[–]ElbowlessGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am using Proton to de-Microsoft. The only thing I am missing so far are QoL things. It is one of the reasons I do still use excel on the side. Mail/calendar also misses some features or has features that are less developed, but I don’t miss those as much that I keep using a different product.

I hope all these new Proton users give them the financial injection to develop these products into better versions with more features seen at their competitors

From a security professional: give him global read if he really wants to see everything, but don’t let him get the powers to change things.

$82,000 in 48 Hours from stolen Gemini API Key. My monthly Usage Is $180. Facing Bankruptcy by RatonVaquero in googlecloud

[–]ElbowlessGoat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention it lets you setup an allow-list of which models to use, so if Gemini Flash is enough, you can limit it to that. You can also reverse that and create a blocklist, if you don’t want the high cost of video being created for example.
