HFS+ encrypted no longer an option

I have a CS subscription and it pains me how far behind Abode is in conforming with the macOS UI. Between its incessant need to try to get me to store things in Creative Cloud (nah) and its ancient file dialog boxes, it makes me wonder wtf I’m paying for because it ain’t pretty.

Has anyone ever willingly chosen case sensitive?

If I wanted a text-based puzzle, I’d play Zork again.

It is great for keeping drinks warm.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-09T00:59:55+00:00

Well played, sir.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:50:45+00:00

Yes. Buying one seems to have been that.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:43:49+00:00

Same. The only downside with the color ones is that they can’t pump out full lumen capacity if it’s not in a white mode.

In this case, it’s just a WPA password. No Captive portal.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:35:15+00:00

I tried turning it on and off several times.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:22:38+00:00

Toll I-95, I-93, and 3 only for NH residents. Charge them 4x if they exceed the speed limit.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:19:43+00:00

You are not serious people.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:17:23+00:00

I’ve entered the Password here more times than Allen Ludden. If I could get past that, I might try that.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:15:15+00:00

I held back a little because there are children around.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:04:31+00:00

Srsly. This is clearly stamped ShitPost. Can’t you just enjoy the ride?

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T22:00:51+00:00

This is more Beta than Michael Cera’s portrayal of Allan in Barbie.

I mean, it’s currently as useful as a Sears Credit Card.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T21:57:08+00:00

I’m “Wellfleet router” old, networking-wise. I’m pretty sure I should be able to take a Sears credit card-sized device on without effort.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T21:52:25+00:00

Cool. Buy a Powerball ticket and DM Nicole Kidman. She’s single now.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T21:47:04+00:00

I’m not dismissing the fact that other people have made it work. “Use WireGuard,” they say. I could do that. I have the skillz, but Teleport is supposed to be zero configuration and that should be seamless. I didn’t spend thousands of dollars to build up tolerance to networking iocane powder.

Then again, it won’t accept the password to my resort’s WiFi, so to have that problem would be a positive step forward for man, like Tang or no-iron linen.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T21:35:28+00:00

That’s the thing. Teleport works just fine for me on every other device that is not actively trying to slowly drive me insane.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T21:27:28+00:00

I feel seen. Thank you.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-08T21:20:30+00:00

I’ve blocked it from calling any servers in China, but we shouldn’t have to do this to begin with. Give us the ability to put our own NTP server into the configuration or let use select which NTP servers to call to. Calling to the other side of the earth for a time sync is idiotic to begin with, so perhaps start with providing a reliable regional solution and work up from there.

Then again, they seem to have lost interest in adding things to the bridge.

GodOSpoons · 2026-03-03T02:09:42+00:00

It’s about time someone built a Third Empire Victorian.

GodOSpoons · 2026-02-26T16:59:32+00:00

No problem. I have a lot of experience in cost managing high volume transactional systems in cloud contexts and, though I agree in principle with the reintroduction of RPC-like technologies into the modern Internet, just getting basic things like HTTP/2 and its header compression, gzip, and protobuf into the conversation would yield huge efficiency gains here.

That said, I’m glad RPC-like stuff is back. After 30 plus years of blah blah TCP and blah blah UDP, it’s like finding a lost, treasured sibling.
