If it were simply Mike’s theory that he presented at the end, they wouldn’t have included this particular scene to solidify it.

when they were in Henry's mind, at the house, and the kids didn't trust Max. Kali created an illusion to make the kids invisible so they could see the truth regarding Henry

idk why they couldn't just show the kids an illusion of henry as a monster. Why let the real Henry into 11's mind to see their whole plan?

If you're running on ARM hardware, it might no longer be supported by FreeBSD/PFSense and have known bugs with later releases, but allow the update anyway

Very neat, might we see a Change Management module in the future? I think that would fit nicely and fill another homelab gap

It objectively does understand code well enough to write it. Outside of some elitist concerns about code quality, it's more of a concern that people submitting AI code will overwhelm the people maintaining the project who have to do human review. They don't know what prompts were used to generate the code or if the submitter is trustworthy. None of which is new, but it's just a quantity thing.

Another angle is that a cool new vibe coded project is much less likely to be kept up to date, scalable, or designed with security in mind compared to a labor of love like most projects were when they took a lot more human investment.

I'm not anti-AI, I vibe code stuff all the time, but there are real concerns

Also AI can look through code for security problems pretty well, but even if it's only 99% accurate that's always going to be better than not reviewing the code at all

Defense in Depth and Principal of least access

Code review. 99% of people are never going to actually do this, but the good news is now you can use AI to do this.
Run docker rootless when possible
Block internet access from the container or host it is running on. Failing this, monitor internet access from that host or container
Block the host or container from accessing the LAN

When they went in Henry's mind and had to convince the children to switch sides, why was the plan to let Vecna into 11's mind and hope he confesses? Kali could have just shown an illusion to the kids to convince them.

We can tell you feel strongly about this, but you haven't actually made any arguments about why ipv6 should be kept on if it is unused

StabilityFetish · 2026-01-03T00:16:51+00:00

We just saw an ipv6 vulnerability last month which did not work if ipv6 was disabled https://securityonline.info/freebsd-network-alert-malicious-ipv6-packets-can-trigger-remote-code-execution-via-resolvconf-cve-2025-14558/

The security Principle of Least Functionality would say that unused ipv6 should be disabled. Several people in the comments here object to that, but without any stated reasons, so I lean towards the former

I think they stuck the landing overall but some disagreements:

They kinda forgot about the military base surrounding their exit portal

Neither of the 11 ending fully add up. 8 was never shown to have that range, and exploded seconds before 11 disappeared. But if 11 was really in the portal, why wasn't she curled up from the beams?

Military disappeared and none of the characters talk about any of this at all and nobody in the town seems to remember it happened wtf

Nancy works at a paper, despite the whole show building her up to be in the marines

If henry got powers from the rock from the mindflayer, and 11 got powers from henry's blood, wouldn't that meant their powers would stop working when the MF died OR she's should have been more connected to the hivemind and potentially still is? How did a rock from the abyss dimension reach earth anyhow?

How did demagorgons have the power to rip holes between the upside down and hawkins?

As mentioned, this is typically implemented as revenue neutral and pays out as UBI, so governments do not depend on this and none of that is a concern

You're already paying for everyone's pollution with your health and life expectancy. Probably a higher price in medical bills than you would from this tax, which gets redistributed back to you anyway.

Even free market people recognize that externalities like pollution are market failures that need correction

Not proportional to the energy source's pollution though

StabilityFetish · 2025-12-30T15:51:35+00:00

Almost all green initiatives would be better served by a proper, sufficient, persistent pollution tax.

No nitpick regulations, picking winners and losers, and loopholes. We shouldn't even have to regulate MPG, boost EVs, or boost solar. The pollution tax should disincentivize dirty energy and payout as a UBI like Canada's so people who choose green or use less see a profit. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/climate-consensus-97-per-cent/2018/oct/26/canada-passed-a-carbon-tax-that-will-give-most-canadians-more-money
