This was an absolute gem. I don’t have much of substance to add just now (except that those dress uniforms are very nice), but after being on the whole disappointed by the season opener I am extremely pleased with this episode. Definitely one of the strongest in the show so far, which is no small feat.
@Alextheacceptable In Germany, there are lawyers specialised on torrents. They collect German IPs from the peers list and mass-sue them over distributing copyrighted material. They always ask for a settlement payment of more than 5000€. It can usually be escaped by taking it to court, but I recommend not going through that.
So, depends on your location. Over here, download one movie without a VPN and you have a shit ton of legal crap coming your way.
Would that really matter, though? Afaik, they could still just… ask your ISP who that IP was assigned to, which is what they’re going to do with IPv4 anyways.
@SolOrion They don't deal with ISPs outside the country, because they can't sue them at a German court.
So they need to know it's a German ISP beforehand so they can request personal information accordingly. But maybe they could still figure it out from IPv6 address ranges... I'm not entirely sure.
There is not a single word that's universal to all languages.
Even if there had ever been one at some point, there are languages that have/had word retirement as part of the culture speaking it: If a word is used as someone's name and that person dies, that word is now taboo and a new word is needed to refer to what the old word stood for.
Conlanging, especially by laypeople, often explicitly makes up most or all of its vocabulary from scratch or uses cyphers to make the connection invisible. I wouldn't be surprised if a people made up their own secret language from scratch, maybe initially with very similar grammar, that developed into a native language for a community.
Have you heard of Cockney rhyming slang? Take a word like "fart", use a two part word that rhymes with it, like "raspberry tart", then drop the rhyming part. That leaves you with "raspberry" meaning "fart" and no discernible connection to the old words this utterance/meaning pair came from.
Sign languages are languages as well, and in multiple instances developed from the ground up without influence from the surrounding spoken languages.
I really enjoyed it. Star Trek is at its strongest when it gives itself time to mull over philosophical, ethical, and social issues. This episode really knocked it out of the park. Just really well-written overall.
I personally wouldn't take the chance. Mullvad is €5 a month, and is worth it to me. My ISP completely shut off my service before ever giving me a notification. I had to completely restart service after going full Karen and blaming it on "my kids." I would do a few searches and find posts or info relevant to your area or ISP.
But barely anyone else provides it too. Proton has it kind of but the amount of servers are restricted so yeah great higher ping/slower speeds depending on where you are from
But in contrast, this lawyer (Neera) won by mainly by being a good lawyer (albeit in a tv legal drama kind of way). Setting things on fire with the first witness to create a bunch of fog and doubt about the premise of the case, realising that other important regulations impinge on the case and setting up testimony to substantiate the effect of those regulations.
My memory of most other officer-lawyers is that their methods tend to focus more on the moral “issyew” (Picard’s pronunciation of “issue” in Measure of a Man).
Oh yeah, an actual lawyer and one who was not assigned by Starfleet. Una was also spot on with her complaint that her original counsel was paid by those prosecuting her. 👏
I think this user is looking for others with multiple personalities (plurals). Just a guess though. I don’t know why they posted here, but it IS a question…
This is really fascinating. The brain is truly such a complex tool that we can do so much with. I appreciate you sharing your story/stories with us. The brain hacking reminds me of how others can hack their brain to lucid dream. What you are doing sounds even more complex than that, however.
Would be curious to hear more detail on your method, should you choose to share it.
We tested out Pulseway a while back but weren’t confident in it’s patching process. We ended up using Action1 because of the price and the simplicity of it. They have a good community on discord that’s always helpful and they’re consistently adding new features. The also host weekly webinars (usually about patching) to help to get up and running.
I guess RMM is a broad term though, cuz I’m not sure about the VPN to AD situation you’re talking about. Are you hosting Pulseway on your own server?
AFAIK Action1 is only cloud-based right now, just install the agent and go. You can also set up a service account on your DC and use their deployer to auto install the agent on domain devices.
Adverts like this post shouldn’t be a think in “YSK”. It makes no sense.
This app is literally just music piracy in a fancy shell anyways. Since there’s no YouTube ads displayed, artists get nothing. Think Spotify is bad at paying artists? Try… piracy…?
To be honest, the only thing that holds me back to delete my reddit profile is the DH subredit. If you can find a way to move away from Reddit that would be great! At least keep up the boycott for sure!
