Did you mean to send that reply to me?

I ask because I’m not quite sure what specific suggestions you’re looking for.

But in general, I would suggest not exposing port forwarding.

What services are running behind NGINX? What router/firewall are you using?

They are frequently targeted because they offer enterprise grade configurations at consumer prices.

Which means, there’s a lot that can be misconfigured, and a lot of short staffed and under budgeted IT departments that deploy them, which means they are a good payoff when exploited.

That’s the bad part, and the good part.

You really cannot beat their price point to value for professional grade networking equipment. Just take the time to understand what you’re doing when doing your configurations, and keep them updated.

Absolutely. Especially software that has to interface with specific hardware, which often times can have issues working properly with Windows VMs.

I can just dedicate some old hardware for baremetal Win10, but not everyone has that luxury.

That’s why humans have brains, for situational awareness.

And it’s less about not breaking for an animal, as it is about not wildly swerving.

Also, you should probably revise your thinking on this before you visit any states that have large animals like Moose on the roads. Because if you plow into one with a car, it can easily kill you when it crushes you after impact.

I’d smash.

They will, but only because he’ll die trying to make toast while taking a bath, or something else actually Darwin Award worthy.

Holy shit.

After reading both of your comments, I am left feeling dumber by at least 12%.

Quick, write about four more of them and I should be good and ready to find my way to a Darwin Award.

U know what i think …

The better question is do I care what you think, and the answer is no, not at all.

But if you insist, I’m sure whatever you’re thinking shouldn’t be too hard to figure out, as there can’t be too many possibilities. What I’m saying is, you give strong vibes of a likely future Darwin Award nominee.

It feels like none of you have actually read the Darwin Awards website that actually you know, coined the phrase.

Simply working a dangerous environment and dying within it, doesn’t make it a Darwin Award, not even a nominee.

She was there to do a job that required a lot of attention on it’s own. You can’t be assigned to photograph skydivers, at an airfield, without having to expend some energy and attention to doing that job.

By your logic, any of the kids who got ground up and killed cleaning meat processing plants, should have been more aware. Guess they’re also Darwin Award winners, at least by your metrics.

Darwin Awards are for deaths that are so stupendously stupid and insane, that the removal of their genes from the gene pool acts as a kind of cleanse.

Such as the guy who stuck a plunger in the shower as a makeshift dildo, held on to the shower curtain rod area for support, which proceeded to break under his weight and impaled him.

That’s an actual Darwin Award. Not this poor lady.

That’s not what Darwin awards are for.

Ironically, the fact that you think it is, means if you have an untimely death, there’s a good chance it will be eligible.

No asshole, read the article before making such callous comments.

She was there, on assignment for work. Small airfields are very dangerous, and this type of accident can happen to anyone who isn’t fully focused on their surroundings. Such as a photographer who is taking photographs as part of their job, steps in the wrong direction.

lol

Yes, Monero fills a niche, and it’s the closest crypto asset to resemble a currency.

However, your previous post talked about replacing finance with Bitcoin. Even if we pretend you were talking about Monero, that just means you have a one world currency, and no one at the helm who can guide monetary policy for any one country.

You shouldn’t need a degree in finance or economics to understand how disastrous that would be, especially for smaller and poorer countries.

So, Bitcoin and the rest of crypto are all commodities, not currencies. They are commodities with a high environmental cost, and a floor of zero because they have no tangible assets to speak of.

Monero can fill a niche, and I’m actually happy about that because I like Monero and the principles behind the project. Unless of course you believe that includes delusions of grandeur and replacing all world currency and financial systems, with the magic of the “just the right crypto”.

What the fuck dude.

Why are you posting paintings that depict my O face?

This is like Victorian revenge porn.

This has to be a joke right? Satire?

I mean, it’s one thing to be a long on Bitcoin, or even just see it’s value as a niche commodity.

But suggesting Bitcoin mining is an energy efficient way to heat buildings, is capable of replacing global finance, or that it creates more tangible benefits than artisanal glass blowers…?

You know what I can do with a artisanal piece of glass? Hold it, use it, own it.

You know what I can do with Bitcoin? Speculate that if I hold on to it long enough, I can convert it to actual currency that can actually be used as a currency.

Unlike BTC, which is just a speculative commodity, with no tangible assets to provide an actual floor.

The floor on crypto is zero. If I buy a bunch of gold right now, even if the price crashes, I still have a bunch of gold.

I guess I kind of feel for some of these guys, but the Cybertruck was always going to be a political statement.

Putting aside how dumb it looks, or how terrible it actually is, it’s a cultural signifier. Unlike the other Tesla cars, that can easily be separated from Musk and his “brand”, that can’t be done here.

Musk and his brand was baked into it from conception to production, so, I don’t think this is going to resolve itself anytime soon.

Let me jump back to my first point though, I feel kinda sorry for anyone who bought this simply because they have really bad taste, poor financial decision making skills, but who also genuinely weren’t aware of the political implications or cultural baggage it would carry.

Although, now that I think about it, every time I’ve seen a Cybertruck driving, I have also started laughing, but only because it looks just so dumb, and I can’t help but imagine the driver losing his finger trying to close trunk.

I can see it now. This great AI mediator will reach the consensus that Eric Schmidt is correct. We shouldn’t worry about meeting our climate goals, we should cook the planet faster to accelerate AI development.

Eventually of course, the AI will save us.

Now some of you might think that’s a terrible idea, from bad actors, that simply suits their own greed.

Don’t worry. The new Google AI wouldn’t leave us without a backup plan.

That backup plan? If plan A fails, simply reduce human population by 35%.

Concerned about who will get picked for population reduction? Don’t worry, the AI has it covered…

Where are you getting your history from? Because I imagine the Cubans and Boers would disagree, and those are two of the earliest, if not the first uses of what we consider to be concentration camps.

They havs always used to imprison civilian non-combatants, and the only benchmark by which some were simply “not very pleasant”, is if you compare every other example to the worst examples, which were the Nazi concentration camps.

Dude, they mostly speak Spanish, not German…But yes, I agree, that would make a great motto for:

The Better Camps for More Concentration

I’m thinking we put a sign up at the gates that reads:

El Trabajo te Hace Libre

Anywho, now we’re cooking with gas.

Thanks for the assist!

Look it makes sense to concentrate them…into camps.

And the more that I think about it, militarized camps sounds ominous.

How about a friendlier name, like concentration camps.

They’re just like summer camp, but you where you learn to concentrate more better.

Ah ha! Nailed it:

The Better Camps for More Concentration
