I’mm’a need a gif of the two guys, arm-in-arm, sinking slowly into the lake. I smell a new meme format.

Shit shit shit, I just remembered I haven’t attended English class all semester.

Shit shit shit, I can’t remember my locker combination, and I can’t find the orientation sheet that has it, also I can’t find my class schedule, I have no idea what class I’m supposed to be in right now.

Plus a few other variations. All High School. I dunno why the focus on High School, I’m 34. I get one of these once or twice a month.

I dunno what would be funnier, if a bunch of people did this and got themselves arrested, along with Jones, for obstruction, or if just no one showed up at all.

JakenVeina ,

I remember when Toonami gave it a 10/10 and I agreed wholeheartedly.

I’m probably a lot more willing than the average person to forgive the occasional part that sucked. All games have them, so I try not to hopdbthat against a game that has plenty of non-suck to offer.

Lord knows Sunshine has a few. Fucking Plinko.

A man should get violent and angry and protective when someone hits on his woman.

JakenVeina ,

Exactly who I was thinking of. I actually really appreciate that they evolved their music, instead of just doing the same things for 15 years.

I’ve had a lot of success with this guy.

www.liito-kala.com/page92?product_id=6&brd=1

Supports a variety of different battery sizes, can charge at different rates, goves voltage readouts, and can run full capacity tests.

I was originally only looking for an 18650 charger, but I got way more than I bargained for.

what if the hacker provided the public key for https connection? (www.youtube.com)

So this video explains how https works. What I don’t get is what if a hacker in the middle pretended to be the server and provided me with the box and the public key. wouldn’t he be able to decrypt the message with his private key? I’m not a tech expert, but just curious and trying to learn.

JakenVeina ,

An additionap note on what a certificate is, to supplement everyone here who’ve desceibe howbthat’s the missing piece:

A certificate’s first main purpose is being the vehicle vy which the public key is distributed, but additionally it contains information ABOUT the owner. Then the whole thing is digitally signed with the private key (and also a trusted CA’s private key), so that a receiver can validate the authenticity of the cert with the public key.

The “info” in the cert can theoretically be anything, but the most important one is the domain. Your browser knows that visiting google.com is secure because it checks the cert it gets from google.com to see if it states that it owns the google.com domain, and then we trust the root CAs around the world to make clients prove they own that domain, before issung a cert for it.

JakenVeina ,

Lol, no. I have family members that actively called him a n****r while he was in office.

JakenVeina ,

Agreed, my wife and I had that conversation recently, as it happens. Though, for some things, there are other benefits. Herbs is the best example, even the fresh, packaged herbs that you can buy at a grocery will be noticeably not-as-good as something that you picked fresh in the backyard 2 minutes ago. Dill, basil, thyme, mint, what have you. I’ve found the same to be true of things like bell peppers and jalapenos.

Having happiness in your life and wanting to share it with others?

Fucking nerd.

There’s 0 downside form him, really. Either the judge doesn’t follow through, and Trump gets to mock him, or he does follow through, and Trump continues to paint himself as a martyr.

JakenVeina ,

I’m with Arrowhead as well, none of this shit is coming from them, it’s coming from Sony. The most you can criticize them for is partnering with Sony in the first place.

JakenVeina ,

Also fair.

JakenVeina ,

They do, it’s called an IP address.

Phones get numbers assigned to them by a cell service provider, in order to communicate on their network, which is basically the exact process for computers and IP addresses.

If you’re asking about the equivalent of like a SIM card, in the computer/internet world, that’s handled at higher layers, by digital certificates. And again, the process is almost exactly the same, except they don’t (usually) get put on physical chips.

JakenVeina ,

Main difference there being that switching cities means probably switching ISPs. You can absolutely carry over your IP address when you move between the same provider, if that’s part of your service plan, and that may well happen with some ISPs even without it being part of your plan. There just isn’t really much of a need for people to carry a static IP, except for some businesses, and I’d say the main reason is that people don’t visit websites by memorizing and typing in an IP. They do memorize and type in phone numbers.

All the ways streaming services are aggravating their subscribers this week (arstechnica.com)

Below is a look at the most exasperating news from streaming services from this week. The scale of this article demonstrates how fast and frequently disappointing streaming news arises. Coincidentally, as we wrote this article, another price hike was announced....

JakenVeina ,

Unironically, yes. Everything we had 20 years ago, but worse.

JakenVeina ,

I feel like this is the first time I’ve EVER heard of a fine being “all the profits you made from the fraud.” Is this for real? Why the hell is it Razer, of all companies, that’s getting a proper punishment?

JakenVeina ,

The XZ exploit was found because some dude was investigating performance issues in a system, and noticed an unusual amount of time being spent in SSH processing, IIRC.

JakenVeina ,

So, you’re a tech nerd who wants an addictive game?

Factorio.

Also Satisfactory, but I’m not sure how well it runs on Linux. Fairly sure Factorio will run on just about anything

“Yeah, Jessica, we’ve talked about this. You can’t just SAY thay racist things should be avoided, we’re trying to APPEAL to racists, remember?”

JakenVeina ,

Windows 11 has ads NOW, in the enterprise install I’m provided at work.

JakenVeina ,

Gotta be Breath of the Wild, for me. Taken together with Tears of the Kingdom, the series’ storytelling and immersion has never been better, I think, and as a game, Breath of the Wild was the tighter, more-satisfying experience, overall.

Wind Waker is a veeerrrrrrry close second. I think it’s the most-polished entry in the whole series, in both categories. I’m really not sure what I would change, if given the chance.

JakenVeina ,

So, wait, Mocrosoft is finally giving us a way to fully-disable automatic Windows Updates?

/s

JakenVeina ,

A couple of video streaming services, Hulu, which includes Disney+, Discovery+ and Netflix. That totals up to like $50/mo or so.

Other than that, it’s aaaallllll independent creators, through Twitch or Patreon.

For work, I have 2 monitors, and my docked laptop. The main two monitors are hugely beneficial for software development, as I can reference design docs or requirements while writing code, or I can have the debugger running on one screen, while the app runs on the other.

The laptop screen is where Teams and Outlook sit, so I can glance over at messages from the team, and maybe respond, without having to swap around any of my workspace.

JakenVeina ,

Protip: don’t even engage with those systems. Just press 0. Every time it prompts you to say something to proceed. Has yet to fail me.

JakenVeina , (edited )

The fuck is “cheugy”? How the hell do you pronounce that?

JakenVeina ,

I mean, even he was a nerd. A survivalist nerd.

JakenVeina ,

I’ll take this over the more “classic” styles, when people seed to believe they were paying the compiler by the character.

JakenVeina ,

The point is that everyone does have them, but only rarely are they visible to the human eye.

JakenVeina ,

Generally speaking, fault protection schemes need only account for one fault at a time, unless you’re a really large business, or some other entity with extra-stringent data protection requirements.

RAID protects against drive failure faults. Backups protect against drive failure faults as well, but also things like accidental deletions or overwrites of data.

In order for RAID on backups to make sense, when you already have RAID on your main storage, you’d have to consider drive failures and other data loss to be likely to occur simultaneously. I.E. RAID on your backups only protects you from drive failure occurring WHILE you’re trying to restore a backup. Or maybe more generally, WHILE that backup is in use, say, if you have a legal requirement that you must keep a history of all your data for X years or something (I would argue data like this shouldn’t be classified as backups, though).

JakenVeina ,

You mention Bally and baseball, mlb66 was my go-to last year.

JakenVeina ,

Damn, actual personal growth being displayed on the internet? Such a rare thing I find myself wondering it wasn’t all staged. How messed up is that?

Also, how messed up is it that it worked, cause I’mm’a go watch all of these.

Why is defederation an option when Limit/Mute exist?

In short i just jumped into the whole Mastodon blocking drama and am somewhat disappointed to see it as childish as reddit’s power mod drama. Accelerated by the fact that a Limit/Mute option exist just fine, i wonder why Block/Defederation is an option at all. It only moves power from the user to admins without anything in...

JakenVeina ,

Defederation is an administrative solution, specifically for when the user-facing tools like muting and blocking aren’t enough. It’s the solution against instance admins that aren’t capable or willing to moderate their users, or that are actively malicious.

JakenVeina ,

So, what you’re saying is, their current setup is working for you, and their new proposal for lower-orbit satellites isn’t really necessary?

JakenVeina ,

I don’t know why this makes me giggle so uncontrollably.

JakenVeina ,

Dark & Stormy is my favorite, from what I’ve tried

JakenVeina ,

Why the hell is a professional tech business not relying almost-exclusively in ethernet, anyway?

JakenVeina ,

Unless you’re doing something crazy, like super-long runs (like, across a whole building) get the cheapest thing you can find that’s rated for the minimum spec you need (like, if you want 4k at 120fps or whatever, lookup which HDMI version is needed for that, and buy at least that). That means do NOT buy at any brick-and-mortar store, their markups are borderline illegal.

I’ll drop another recommendation for monoprice.com.

JakenVeina ,

Apparently, there is in Arizona, since 2000, and no one’s sued to strike it down yet.

JakenVeina ,

I would be wary of using STIGs as a reference point for good security practices. They are notorious for being poorly-enforced in the real world, and it stems from the fact that they are written too ambiguously. Getting STIG reviewed can have wildly different results just depending on the reviewer’s interpretation of the written text. I’ve seen this first-hand in my job, where we’ve gotten dinged on specific STIGS for code that hasn’t changed in a decade, just because a reviewer decided to interpret a STIG differently than others from the past. And trying to be pro-active about complying with STIG requirements ahead of time always boils down to arguments about “well, what does the STIG MEAN here?”

JakenVeina ,

Also, impressive penmanship, on both counts.
