I used to get off work at almost 3am. Pulled into a gas station and they refused to let me use the restroom. I did the exact same thing. Fuck any place that doesn’t recognize the need for someone to relieve themselves of a normal bodily function.
I’m pretty much all kasa with the innovelli for my fans.
Kasa require wifi for setup, but then have a local API for HA control. Just note that some features like motion detection aren’t presented via API.
Death is the ultimate cure for cancer.
I mean… If I could afford a riding lawnmower that would be me. I want to at some point find a broken washer to rip the drum out of. They make good fire pits for really big fires.
Att’s usage meter sucks.
Yea. It feels like every game wants to follow the current gaming trend rather than stay in their existing game design.
It’s been very weird seeing every game turn into open worlds, with story changing dialogue options.
Unifi. I’ve got a box of APs as ewaste just sitting in the basement. Every so often I would get more ewaste from companies I work with.
I don’t need the most demanding of wifi systems. I hardwire most of my stuff whenever possible. And I have a fairly small home. A single AP on the main floor, 1 AP on the basement. 1 AP in the detached garage.
Most of my wifi devices are iot things on their own vlan.
That’s if the label generation is automated. Small shops will still have that be a manual process when they pack and weigh it for the label.
I’m a big fan of ipmi so I can remotely manage it. I’d look at one of these now: https://www.starwindsoftware.com/blog/supermicro-superserver-e200-8de300-8d-review/
I don’t really like having to connect a monitor and keyboard when working on my servers now.
Storage is really limited for TV and movies though if you are running Plex.
If you want to host something like libre office, just remember how important backups actually are. If you take the risk of hosting business documents, make sure you do everything necessary to protect them.
Tracking numbers don’t get created until a shipping label is printed. Maybe give it a little bit.
My guess is that it’s asking for you to confirm your date of birth, to a minimal degree of accuracy without actually having to reveal your date of birth.
I kind of like the idea. Most people know what their star sign is, whether they believe in it or not. So they will be able to answer quickly and correctly. Those that need to look it up it might need to be more critical of the login for.
Depending on what people do, the government already has their fingerprints.
Personally, I work around schools so I had to get a background check and fingerprinted for that. I also am licensed to handle explosives, both federally and at the state level. I been fingerprinted for that. I’ve gone through TSA for hazmat endorsement on a commercial driver’s license. That needed fingerprints and a background check.
Getting fingerprinted to get through airport security is the least of my privacy concerns.
But my threat model isn’t the TSA. They aren’t a concern of mine, although I do opt out of their facial recognition.
I am concerned with internet surveillance, corporate surveillance, and communication surveillance.
I’ve heard this story before, it’s not a new incident. It’s also getting a lot of coverage from lots of media.

This is far from boring. It’s terrifying.
Finding the correct bolt size, thread pitch, material, and trusting that when I order grade 8 bolts, I’m actually getting grade 8 makes Amazon quite a pain in the ass.
If it’s something I don’t care too much about, yea Amazon is fine. But when I want to trust my life to it or it’s going to take some serious stress I’m going to want McMaster.
I’ve been tempted to create a bot that does nothing but search comments in code for misspelled words and create pull requests for them.
If it stays in comments, little chance in breaking a working codebase and I’d have an insane amount of commits and contributions to a wide variety of codebases for my resume.
I’ll never be a top tier coder. But I might make management.
People are crazy. Feeling threatened by telling someone “hey, you didn’t vote last time. Please make your voice heard by voting” is wearing your persecution complex on your sleeve.
Fragile fucks.
Just because you can extrapolate something from it, doesn’t mean you can change the words in the rule. They got the rule wrong, simple as that.
I think there is a big difference between a single room pod that is coming from Walmart and the entire house that Sears sold to be built on site.
These feels like tech bro bullshit to “disrupt” the housing market.
It’s amazing how the media and propaganda has made enemies of our neighbors and stoked those fears until the populace thinks they need to always be vigilant of some perceived slight or danger.
They have kept us blind of those who have organized a societally approved threat. Law and order is not kept through threats of violence by the state. It is built through the community and rising up all those around us.
A rising tide lifts the boat, we all benefit when those around us are doing better.
