Separating the artist from the art is fine.

I used Liftoff until it broke with the API change a couple months back. The Dev has been AFK looking after twin kids. Hope they are going well.

Tried Thunder for a while but it kept crashing or forgetting what post I was looking at when switching between apps.

Using Voyager now and I am quite happy with it. I miss the All servers you have accounts with feed view from Liftoff but that is not a biggie.

The legal dispute between Lenovo, Motorola, and InterDigital in Germany has led to a sales ban on devices equipped with WWAN modules crucial for mobile internet connectivity

Neat.

It always has been since the 90s. Although seeing as games are written for OS not for hardware architecture the reason things run like ass on a phone is because there will be a software translation layer getting the thing to work.

In addition, phone hardware is designed for power efficiency where laptop and desktop aren’t as pushed that for for power efficiency.

Forgejo is a community owned fork of Gitea which is privately owned.

One day we can expect Gitea to pull the license for money as we see almost every private company do. Although I do hope they don’t.

0900 till 0930 - 15 min standup meeting.
0930 till 1000 - focus time.
1000 till 1100 - Pre meeting for customer meeting at 1100.
1100 till 1200 - Customer meeting.
1230 till 1300 - Post Meeting catchup.
1300 till 1330 - focus time.
1330 till 1430 - JIRA board update meeting.
1430 till 1500 - priorities review meeting.
1500 till 1645 - focus time.
1645 till 1730 - EOD standup.

slazer2au ,

Well yea, plenty happens between 1700 and 0900. That is why the 15 min standup takes 30 min.

slazer2au ,

Don’t worry mate, it is a joke. But judging by the other comments it is closer to reality than a joke for some.

slazer2au ,

Got to hate those meeting where you are marked as optional but you are required to attend.

slazer2au ,

When you talk to your management and show them how overworked you are and ask for a helper. But don’t just say how much, show them in business lingo so they actually understand.

Fill out your calendar with the meetings and show management how you have no time for meaningful work because of meetings.

Inb4 my truck has been repossessed, please help.

Dumb question, why can’t you attach a USB mouse?

slazer2au ,

I seem to recall that step one if you get contacted by a debt collection company is to ask them to verify the debt and that tends to put them on the back foot for a bit.

I bet they didn’t realise they did this.

Toss a coin to your server. Oh community of plenty.

I can’t think of one large acquisition that benefited consumers

Because consumers are not thought of when acquisitions happen. Shareholders and maybe regulations are thought of.

I thought those were called company registration forms.

Or don’t. Because we know PSN accounts are Sonys end goal and Sony can not be trusted with PII.

Firewatch?

Or Kenshi.

What makes you think all phones have unique numbers? Some have no direct dial numbers.

As for each device getting a unique IP address this is somewhat in the spec for EUI-64 IPv6 address. Your IP is based on your interfaces MAC address but this becomes a privacy nightmare.

If the MAC address’s of the wifi chip in your phone is 1122.3344.5566 your IPv6 address at home can be 2001:0db8:0000:00000:1122:33ff:fe44:5566 but when at work your address may be 2001:db8:1000:0000:1122:33ff:fe44:5566. No matter where you connect to the last 4 sections of the address is the same and companies will use that as one of the data points of your digital profile.

slazer2au ,

Yep. See EUI-64 IPv6 addressing.

slazer2au ,

There kinda is IANA . They assign addresses to regional registraties like RIPE, APNIC, LANIC who in turn assign addresses to ISPs and large corporations.

slazer2au ,

If you tried to route everything with a MAC address, (which isn’t possible, but for arguments sake we will pretend it is) the problem is that when you take your phone with its MAC address off your wifi and on to your work wifi, Where would the registry be? How would the Internet know how to find your phone? Do you just log into one giant global registry so that everyone can find your phone when they are trying to communicate with it? That would be a giant fucking database and everyone would always be trying to use it.

This is a solved issue called EUI-64 IPv6 addressing. It is a privacy nightmare.

slazer2au ,

I hate to break it to you but MAC randomisation has been around since 2007. Fuck we are getting old.

slazer2au ,

In that case it is the IEEE who allocate Macs to orgs

slazer2au ,

You seem to have be missing a fundamental thing about tech but I can’t pin down what it is. So I will respond to your edits.

but I can’t buy a static address that will persist across networks endpoint changes

You can. It’s called Provider Independent Space and it a pain to go with as an individual.

Yes, it would be a privacy nightmare, I want to know why it didnt turn out that way

Because people smarter than you, I, and everyone else in this post said 'Yes EUI-64 is a good idea in principe but the problems on a privacy perspective outweigh the advantages. So let’s build a system called MAC randomisation so people can get multiple address to access the internet with. ’
The good news is you can turn off MAC randomisation.

AFAIK IP addresses (even static public ones) are not equivlent to phone numbers. I don’t get a new phone number every time I connect to a new cell tower

In some parts of the world or before 2000 if you changed mobile providers, say from Vodafone to Telstra you had to get a new number. Since that change number routing has become a nightmare and it makes the BGPv4 table look sane in comparison.

Even if a static IP is assigned to a device, my understanding is that connecting the device to a new uncontrolled WiFi, especially a router with a NAT, will make it so that people who try to connect to the static IP will simply fail.

This is a complex one due to NAT in the ipv4 space. NAT exists purely to allow devices to have the same private IPv4 address and hide behind a public v4 address.

No, MAC addresses are not equivalent phone numbers. 1. Phone numbers have one unique owner, MAC addresses can have many owners because they can be changed at any time to any thing on most laptops. 2. A message can’t be sent directly to a MAC address in the same way as a phone number

  1. MAC do have unique owner blocks. Cisco somewhat owned the 0000.0C block.
  2. Yes you can. That is literally how it works down the TCP/IP stack.

Yes, IMEI is unique, but my laptop doesn’t have one and even if it did its not the same as an eSim or sim card. We can send a message to an activated Sim, we can’t send a message to an IMEI or serial number

If your laptop has a regular Sim slot it will have an IMEI. True we can’t send messages via IMEI or serial because those systems were never designed for message routing.

slazer2au ,

Because it will be an ungodly thing to manage. The national phone databases are already a nightmare to manage. it would be far worse if we had a global one.

There is nothing wrong in asking for help if you hit a wall mate.

[Serious] What is project 2025? What kind of risk is involved?

I’m Canadian and we have our own issues with far right nutjobs but I’ve heard the phrase “Project 2025” thrown around and the little I’ve seen about it frightens me. I don’t follow the news for the sake my mental health but could someone explain it in depth? What kind of a shit show are we looking at? Unfortunately...

Is it vlc struggling or your entire PC?

I has one boss who wanted to stream 2 4K60 cctv feeds to his laptop while in the office. Needless to say his laptop struggles with a single 4K I didn’t even bother setting up the second feed.

How well can an employer be certain of a remote employee's geographical location?

FWIW, this isn’t to do with me personally at all, I’m not looking to do anything dodgy here, but this came up as a theoretical question about remote work and geographical security, and I realised I didn’t know enough about this (as an infosec noob)...

slazer2au ,

Most places will use IP based location services so if you use a router based VPN to appear in another place it will hide you well enough for the initial glance.
Conditional access policies may out you though. Several places will deny known VPN endpoints from logging in. But if you get a VPS hosting server and run your own endpoint you will be less likely to get nabbed by that one.

GPS in laptops is almost unheard of. Sure there are specific models built for specific use cases that have them but a regular corporate laptop is not.

Somewhere between two and eleventy billion. I have no idea what those songs are or who that person is but that doesn’t seem relevant to the question.

How should I change my polite behavior to be more accommodating?

My parents raised me to always say “yes sir” and “no ma’am”, and I automatically say it to service workers and just about anyone with whom I’m not close that I interact with. I noticed recently that I had misgendered a cashier when saying something like “no thank you, ma’am” based on their appearing AFAB, but...

When I don’t know which to use I will fall back on the old Aussie “mate” title.
