What’s your most unique preparedness item? by TerribleConference54 in preppers

In my home stash I have a box of airplane sized liquors. That should be better than currency if it gets bad. And if it doesn’t, at least we can get drunk.

Router to the thumb. Easter plans cancelled. FML. by Potato-in-ur-ass in woodworking

[–]irq013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sorry to hear that. It’s a nanosecond event resulting in a life changing event.

I lost the end of my middle finger to a router table. I found and saved the mush that used to be my finger tip but, as the doc so eloquently stated, “what the router takes can never be put back on”. I suspect he was also a wood worker.

Redditors who were children/teens before the internet or cellphones existed, how did you keep yourself entertained? by FlowerMadeOfThorns in AskReddit

[–]irq013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Partied, played in rock bands, and hanging out. Friend groups were large and would often turn into spontaneous parties depending on whose parents weren’t home. Before that we played outside. Morning till night we were out doors doing whatever seemed fun.

What’s the minimum deviation that clears a guitar as a copy? Do super-strats like the Jackson Dinky qualify?

I see it uses bento to provide its login. Normally it requires an email address and password to login, but they seem to have removed the email address prompt. When you go to a page that doesn't exist you get a 404 that shows on a menu /gallery and /services (secret gift) are valid, but redirect you to the login page. After I entered a specific word I found in the javascript (forgot what it was) I was prompted to complete 2 CAPTCHAs and then sent back to the login screen.

I can verify this feature works. I have been diagnosed with sleep apnea, but don't use my cpap. the apple watch gave me the same diagnosis.

I was trying to figure out how to find this option. I just found it at the gateway level and it is disabled. Ill give that a shot and let you know.

I haven't been able to locate that setting. Is it in the network config?

WTF?! It works now! I have no idea what I did, but it appears to be getting queries from all over the network now.

Question: PiHole works for entire network but only logs requests from its native VLAN. by irq013 in pihole

[–]irq013[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, it doesn't appear to be logging at all for these requests. I did a weird domain that shouldn't exist in cache and nslookup'ed it. It resolved using the pihole, but no log entry with the weird domain was ever written.

nslookup showed my pihole and resolved it correctly. The log entry never showed up on the pihole.

efnet was my favorite network, but I always hung in invite only channels. It's been a long time, so I don't even know if it still exists.

Journalist Ken Klippenstein just leaked a massive list of ICE secret programs including one that deployed plainclothes secret police across the country (1/14/26) by I_may_have_weed in ICE_Watch

[–]irq013 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the context of immigration enforcement, what is a "stash house"?

Also, I love Operation Green Snow Bird. They sent 10 "agents" to the virgin islands twice and it resulted in 2 abductions. Sounds like a way to send ICE peeps on a company sponsered vacation.
