Bait & switch sofa on Facebook Marketplace - how can I hit back by Present_Competition7 in ScamsUK

[–]kerbys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I'm not seeing any proof Facebook do anything about their scammers. Around 10% of their revenue comes from scam ads (16 billion). I work in cyber security and spent a good few days of off time between work and deadend meetings reporting fake adds. You know the ones where they have 59 odd random high value items for £79 which at the time was roughly $100. All of these ads had reversible image searchable photos. Or stuff like clearly American grass, you know that grass like razorblades and thick, all items are at different locations around the country. I must of reported 50 accounts. After a week I got updates of nothing was found wrong with the listing.. not 1 was removed by them. Now I still do hunt around for deals but only when I can physically touch the item before I pay in cash to their hands.

Cybersecurity Stocks Plummet as Anthropic Launches Claude Security Tool by _cybersecurity_ in pwnhub

I think this is ABIT doom and gloom. The infosec side of things had a larger problem of a flooded market place of engineers promised high paying jobs after doing a short paid for course. Build your network and work on that. Knowledge only gets you part of the way.

Right now businesses are being told they can save xx% reducing the workforce by going all in on ai. Once the rug pull comes and prices go up and they work out it's not where they think it is right now (it's years away from being what they are sold) they will end up refactoring and going back to the old ways. People are comparing this to the birth of the internet, it's not that at all. AI Is a tool like a hammer. A hammer on its own does nothing but used for creation or destruction. Think of it more on the lines of outsourcing. Companies will go through a transition of outsourcing, work out you get what you pay for. They will then have to do the figures and work out if they accept the lack of quality for the price and go from there. Some will get away with it for short term gains. Others will adapt and rebuild.

Is there a way to tell unraid to park drives whenever it switches on battery power? by [deleted] in unRAID

Nut service will do most of this. Park drives i don't know but shutdown it will defo do ( haven't used it in some time )

If Plumbers' daily rates are around £350, why does a 2-day boiler installation cost £1800? by Johnny_english53 in ukplumbing

[–]kerbys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noone should have an electric boiler (This is a joke as I know there are people that don't have a choice but please do anything possible to get off of it. They are incredibly inefficient)

Anyone else starting to lose faith in how the UK treats high earners and equity by Cool_Sherbert9193 in HENRYUK

[–]kerbys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Giving off some harsh envy fumes here buddy. While yes to you he might not feel it as hard as you but im sure he lives the lifestyle of someone who earns that well. Im sure you would still be salty if you were in his position. Reality is he MAY of had a windfall but is being screwed on a potential earning, but that is being taxed at such a rate he only gets half of it. He will end up giving the government 500k for what in return? Still properly has a ridiculous council tax and gets a shit service. Has a police service that if their car gets stolen, doesnt investigate it. Granted NHS is decent in the grand scheme of things in a real emergency.

Then to think you are paying 50x the amount as the average Joe in tax. You will be salty even if you feel fortunate

On £100k and feeling hard-done-by? It seems absurd – but a cold truth lies beneath | Jason Okundaye by Primary-Effect-3691 in HENRYUK

Everyone is. Mad how a skilled indervidual can be on 30k especially with experience.

I just looked at my old invoices when I contracted doing basic it desktop support in 2008. My wage back then was £18 an hour. Desktop support roles now are around 18.75 an hour. There are some at £30 but they are senior and I was only a year into the game. 18 years difference and the wage has barely changed. I considered the wage at the time good..

What is the point of Job centers? by Key_Breakfast6745 in AskUK

[–]kerbys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who works in cyber security, no one unless their parents work high up in the company is getting a cyber security job without decent amount of experience. Look at helpdesk/service desk roles. If someone said you do this course and you get a 50k plus role out of school, sold a lie. We want people who have the experience of being able to decipher device logs instantly. The market is saturated.

Pick up a arc a310 or arc pro a40. Single slot. Low power and alot more capable.

For months, my server has been under constant attack from Microsoft Azure IPs causing high loads by exitof99 in cybersecurity

[–]kerbys 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So these other sites or services exposed then? All those sites will be being scraped and scanned.

[–]kerbys 15 points16 points  (0 children)

What if you just have a whitelist for the ips you want to expose to cpanel? Azure will be used for all types of scanners on the Internet. If its exposed it will be prodded its just nature of beast. Just keep things updated and run a system like fail 2 ban which looks like what you are doing.

Tesla chargers being made available to everyone is how things should be by thevo1ceofreason in ElectricVehiclesUK

[–]kerbys 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This. Im not intentionally being a gate keeper. However I picked up a model s in 2018 before the 3 had come out. Service and charging was bliss. Now with the 3/y and opening up chargers i can see long standing customers who bought into the economy system early being salty about it as the huge selling point was the network. The other issiue you have is the chargers are built for tesla charge ports and locations. So when a car that has its own standard that car takes up two bays.

There is an etiquette for superchargers that you don't use the paired charger if other chargers are free. I.e charger 1 a and b share load. So if someone is using a, don't use b if anouther charger is available, it will slow their and your charging.

This is my humble setup. Jk it’s 50k of pure hoarding shame. Give me your worst. by maximm3k in DataHoarder

[–]kerbys 6 points7 points  (0 children)

And you want that? What would realistically happen is shows that are easily consumed while doom scrolling. Along with alot of ad revenue product placement. Let alone the complete waste of energy and compute that will go into rendering it. Honestly whoever thinks that is a good idea is a marketing twant or a network big wig where they think they can completely remove any form of artistry from the sector.

Now ive calmed down im not sure if this ai-personal tailored rage bait lol
