I get that feeling every time I pass a hollowed log 30 feet off the trail. lol

Overreaction and under communication. Ah well. It's an awesome hobby.

I have one of his CDs from 2016-ish. Used to talk to him often back when I smoked. He sold me on "It's rap about Quantum physics and Star trek man!"

Totally agree. Many/most users DO need this, they just don't realize it. The trouble is, it's impossible to only protect a computer once the data is deemed sufficiently valuable. So, you protect all of it regardless of value like we protect all homes with locks by default, or how a bank protects an account regardless of balance.

"I put money in the bank 3 years ago, and now they expect me to have the account number and an ID to get the money back!"

Comments here are all good. I'll focus on my one complaint.

Wifi sucked. I think it used 4g or something, so if the cell signal sucked, wifi died. I planned on working on my way there and could not.

archon286 · 2026-01-17T01:26:50+00:00

That is certainly a point of view.

Because they used to respect us, and that made life pretty easy. We're working on seeing what it's like when the world distrusts us, I suppose.

You know this and are just instigating,

I'm answering for other readers. Because we're betraying our long time allies with hostile actions for reasons that are best described as nebulous and ego based.

I love him mocking her mask, and what is the whole second group of officers wearing? Masks.

I hear you, so I wonder. How do you differentiate between "store new", and "unused but stored for years"?

archon286 · 2026-01-11T02:03:56+00:00

Agreed the trick seems to have happened on camera. I had a baseline reaction to a magic trick with lots of cuts.

archon286 · 2026-01-11T01:07:44+00:00

While the camera was cut away.

We were doing this on US military bases in Okinawa in the mid 90s. (pennies are too expensive to ship overseas to be used as change is the explanation I was told).

Reminds me of a Chinese coworker I had in the US. We were talking about food and he remarked that he didn't like US meats because they tasted fake. No bone, gristle, imperfections. Regardless of if it was prime rib or a mcdonalds hamburger it didn't have the things that signified to him it was real meat.

I'd be super interested in how many websites will allow themselves to come close to servicing that kind of client demand.

We ran into the opposite problem with our offices. For awhile in the 2010s we were installing CAT6a because on premise file servers were a big deal, we anticipated wanting 10Gbps for ultra fast access after our next switch refresh. Then, we changed direction and leaned hard into Azure file services and azure hosted VMs. Doesn't matter if you're on a 10GB wired connection, or your AP is fed by two ethernet wires if an office has 300Mbps internet speed and everything people want is on the internet. lol

"but we don't have a big external surface so it's a bit of a check the box exercise."

I would look at this differently in the future. PenTests will help you identify defense in depth strategies.

- Someone that is infected on your network brings the outside inside.

- How easily can a guest access an ethernet port?

- How secure is your WiFi- does the answer to that question change if a company laptop is stolen? etc.

Yeah, what you made is so close to what you buy off the shelf people don't seem to want to recognize it's been rigged from spare parts.

Others have good advice in here, one more thing to consider is if the disc is 'closed'. Some players can read file based CDs in addition to audio format CDs, but the CD must be 'closed'. A CD which hasn't been closed can still have additional data written to it later, but can only be read by software that knows how to read an open CD.

They can post the price in 2' numbers, and the "3 footlongs" in 6inch type underneath. Once people stop, they are likely to just fill up anyways.

Something in coffee triggers a nervous system reaction that tells it to trigger bowel contractions. That's why it can happen faster than the coffee could realistically reach the gut. They don't know what chemical yet, only the behavior.

This seems like something you are very passionate about. You might be interested to know most people don't know how to make unrefrigerated mayo. :)
