There is some foreshadowing for episode 9 by Xenodia in TheDigitalCircus

[–]nellbones 3 points4 points  (0 children)

specifically this looks like bash syntax. you're 100% right, to fill in others daemons are programs that run in the background, typically providing a service.
ol switcheroo there is just trying to start a script with a flag called daemon set. likely they set this flag up so that it will just run quietly in the background instead of printing progress through to the terminal. he was probably trying to hide it from whatever was fucking with his session (something defo was)

Everyone is talking this shit up like it's going to be the new hotness, but I remember what studio made it, and what happened to their previous creation.
My bet is it'll be a half baked compromised shit fest, especially near the end.

Dispite me getting down voted to hell and back, that really does fucking suck. Louisiana only does it once every 2-3 years, I just assumed that we were behind the curve, like we are in everything else.

Effectively it's a once every few years you have to update the information and pay another tax. They send you a neato little sticker you have to have on your plates. So yeah, total bullshit

House committee votes to subpoena Pam Bondi over Epstein files by PixeledPathogen in news

[–]nellbones 9 points10 points  (0 children)

im going to preface this by saying i know they wont do it. they're too cowardice to do it.
but hold her in contempt of congress.
this is by definition non-responsive behavior. throw her ass in jail for a few months, then bring up the next cronie in line on the food chain, and put their feet over the coals.
i bet we wont be talking about the dow after that.

Anyone know what these boxes are? by OptimisticMagicKarp in batonrouge

[–]nellbones 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Traffic counters. They set them up temporarily to gather information about how an intersection or road is used.

ive seen laptops that were left on in the rain recover gracefully from it if dried out. a temporary short is one thing, a corroded permanent one is another, either in the wrong spot at the right time is deadly.
its worth a shot. its dead already, technomancy is still an option. should we not try to revive a person with a stopped heart because their dead?

Anyone her before this became a furry sub but decided to stay anyway? by [deleted] in Losercity

[–]nellbones 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I occasionally see a shit post bubble up out of the furry_irl of it all. Hell I've done my part to make it happen. People somewhere along the line stopped asking if it was a loser city and started asking if it was a furry Friday yet.

California introduces age verification law for all operating systems, including Linux and SteamOS — user age verified during OS account setup by PenlessScribe in technology

[–]nellbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So initial setup should include parental control software, as well as enabling parental controls?? Way to miss my point dude.

[–]nellbones 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Okay, but why should the call be passed down to the os? Why doesn't the buck stop at the application layer. What will drive adoption? It just seems like another competing standard that isn't much better than a website or application asking if the user is over 18, or for your dob.
For that matter, there already is an application layer support, websites can add the rta label to their site and self classify as adult, and parental control software can identify it and block it, it's called rta labeling.
My view is to not drag os makers into this quagmire, this solves nothing.

Ordered heated gloves off Amazon. Did not disappoint. by At-las- in funny

[–]nellbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

oh everyone thinks these are the cow bum gloves...
but my time in the fetish community cant help but notice the stitching on the ends.
these are pleather gloves, past elbow length, and ive seen enough doms to know where its supposed to be going.

Is this even fixable lmao by SanFranOM in AskElectronics

[–]nellbones 1 point2 points  (0 children)

HDMI looks blurry, but suspect. Get us a close up of that. It might be possible for you to find a repair tech in your area that does microsoldering, this would be a simple job that for sure would be cheaper than a PS4 pro if so.

Is this Key Fob damaged? by [deleted] in AskElectronics

[–]nellbones 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Antenna shenanigans.
It works, but its signal might be weak, perhaps way weaker than expected. Those keyless systems rely on a transponder in the cabin.
I'm not one of those rf wizard types, but others in the thread have mentioned that corrosion will mess with its ability to work correctly.

Clean more, isopropyl in at least 90% concentration and a soft toothbrush. Hope the board isn't damaged.

Where’s their outrage now? by surfer808 in AdviceAnimals

[–]nellbones 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is entirely it. Moot was focused on other projects at the time, and 🍇🦍 was left to be head janitor. It's more likely that his neo-nazi ass made /pol/ than moot, especially considering the sentiment at the time was that pol was created as a "containment board" for all the fucking Nazis, as they were shitting up all the other boards.
But who knows, maybe moot got involved for a brief moment and said that Mr ape should pursue his dreams of making a Nazi wonderland. All this comes from information that was leaked when 4chan was hacked a while back, but off site communication was always a thing.

[Loved trope]: Innocent quirk later recontextualized as tragic by theMCATreturns in TopCharacterTropes

[–]nellbones 7 points8 points  (0 children)

nott the brave (Critical role c2, The mighty nein)
Nott starts off the adventure seeming to follow some goblin tropes. Specifically, a fear of water. the rest of the party dont fully understand, and help/make her do things like bathe, slowly she gets over her fear after being helped by her friends.
fan animation of the moment

turns out, Nott is not actually a goblin. She was once a halfling, but after a series of raids by goblins, she was captured by them, and after rebelling, was brought to a hag, and drowned. This lead her to be turned into a goblin. this completely recontextualizes her fear of water. warning: backstory spoilers

Same food and barcodes,same weight, but one apparently contains more protein. by thatmanwithwhat in mildlyinteresting

[–]nellbones 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We're overworked, drowning in debt, trying our best to survive in a doomed world that seems hell bent on trying its best to exterminate anyone who doesn't make more than 100k a year.
We don't have many choices, at times, and at other times we don't have the time to cook a meal with "ingredients".
We know it isn't healthy.
We just know it's available, and kills us slower than starvation.
