They make sprung flip-top covers specifically for this reason. It’s just a little adhesive square/circle that you stick over the power/reset button, and it has a flip-top that automatically springs closed again.

I mean, would you want it to serve clients outside of your subnet? I guess maybe if you had something like a guest network. But I tend to take the “fuck it, you get basic service and nothing else” approach to things like guest networks.

Isn’t it a potential security issue to have your pihole serve things on any subnet, because it allows an improperly configured firewall to stab at your pihole? I think you can specify any additional subnets it will serve in the settings somewhere. But IIRC, the default behavior is to intentionally drop traffic from unknown subnets. But that’s just off the top of my head.

There’s a reason truckers call RV drivers “fucking terrorists”. You can legally drive an RV without a commercial license, even though it’s the size of a goddamned bus. Which means you never received training on how to avoid things like “sucking cyclists under your vehicle with your wake”.

Japan actually made me laugh, simply because the entire country somehow walked all the way around to the other side of the continent.

The dude committed suicide two days after the cops raided him. So at most, it would be his estate suing people for libel/slander. But you usually need to prove damages (like losing your job, or being forced to move) to win a slander lawsuit, and it’s hard to claim that a dead guy was monetarily damaged by someone saying things about him.

My local BBQ place will do a full 3-meat (and sides) catering spread for 20 people for $350. If you’re paying $300 for 6 people, you’re getting ripped off.

A while back I sent my buddy a TikTok with the comment “this fucking killed me” and got an “if you are thinking about hurting yourself, here is the suicide prevention hotline” automated warning in the chat.

TL;DR it’s six paragraphs just fucking read it.

I think RuneScape is notable because the entire game ran in your browser. There was no install, so a lot of the game content was streamed. And streaming anything on 56k is impressive.

Pretty much this. I’d copy anything I want to keep onto a temporary drive, (cloud storage, a USB drive, second SSD, etc), then use it as an excuse to refresh my install. Then just copy everything from that temporary storage after my new install is finished.

Nothing is mediocre about it. All of the “best” browsers are based on FF’s Gecko engine. Maybe they have complaints about Mozilla or the weird stuff they’ve been doing with FF recently. But the actual Gecko engine is solid, and it’s what all the best browsers are based on.

No, it’s not. State and federal charges are kept separate, and aren’t bound by double jeopardy. It would potentially prevent him from being tried at the federal level again, but wouldn’t protect him against state charges. And the prosecutor’s office has stated that no plea deal exists, so they’re still going to pursue the maximum sentence.

That’s what makes it so confusing. The only real reason he has to enter a guilty plea is because he’s tired of fighting. Or maybe someone threatened him? But at that point, we’re veering into conspiracy theory territory.

Except he wasn’t offered a plea deal. The prosecutor’s office has said that no deal exists, and that they’re still planning on pursuing the maximum sentence.

My guess is it was their last chance for a plea deal.

Except that the prosecutor’s office has stated that no plea deal exists, and they’re still free to pursue the maximum sentence. That’s what makes the whole thing so confusing.

There’s basically no legitimate reason for him to plead guilty at this point, except for “I’m tired of this, just get it over with.” Pleading guilty only hurts his case, and doesn’t help him at all.

“Violence is only for us to use. You peasants don’t get to use it against us.”

Even calling the board “Trump loyalists” is an understatement. Trump hand-picked the board members, has the ability to remove them if they step out of line, and installed himself as chairman of the board. The board is a bunch of puppets, with Trump’s tiny baby hands shoved all the way up their asses.

Point to where the “No Politics” rule is.

Yeah, the cloud makes proper 3-2-1 backups easier, *but you still need to take care of the rest of the 3-2-1. The cloud takes care of a third of the 3, half of the 2, and satisfies the 1. But it’s not a complete 3-2-1 backup by itself, and anyone selling it as such is blowing smoke up your ass to get a sale.

Exactly. There is zero way for those glasses to remain HIPAA-compliant, because everything you do is uploaded to Meta’s servers.

And you’ve just stumbled across the exact problem: People in America are kept juuuust comfortable enough to feel like they’d have a lot to lose.

The complete lack of any kind of safety nets means the vast majority of Americans can’t afford to rebel, because they still have to put food on the table in the meantime. And they can’t take time off work (or risk losing their job entirely by getting arrested) to go burn down a government building.
