Tylerdurdon ,

Managed switches are the way to go. I have various segments and none talk to each other.

Tylerdurdon ,

I mean, Boeing hasn't killed them in a fireball of death, hurtling at 18 thousand kph to the earth. The media has this totally wrong, for now. Everything is totally fine, at this time.

Tylerdurdon ,

Apparently it's a romantic series I had never heard of. Thank goodness 4-chan is there to enhance our lives.

Tylerdurdon ,

Oh! I think you're right. My bad.

Tylerdurdon ,

And if that doesn't work, tell your wife to get the strap-on.

Tylerdurdon ,

If you're handy in any way, PVC isn't too hard to work with. I used to do my own sprinkler system. Since this is above ground and larger, it's even easier. This is assuming you have some common tools and can watch YouTube.

Tylerdurdon ,

I wish you luck! Don't sniff the glue... Unless you want to!

Tylerdurdon ,

Yet another reason to move to Canada, would you look at that.

Tylerdurdon ,

You mean... LinkedIn? If there's any site that perfects the shitpost, it's LinkedIn. Everyone is bullshitting their pants off there.

Tylerdurdon ,

Dude, do you know how much ass I beat at my last gig? It was tremendous (parts hands away from myself).

Tylerdurdon ,

I use one of those coax/Ethernet converters in my house. It's a 2-story place and running Ethernet was going to be too daunting for a room.

Overall it works very well (I had bad experiences with using network over electrical power). The only thing that will be a downer is the gigabit coax converters seem to be expensive. Since I just had 1 client in an isolated network, 100mbps was fine for me but would hamper your NAS throughout. You'd also need to buy 2 sets of converters for your use case, so that's potentially not cheap if you're wanting gigabit from end to end.

Some of the newer wireless standards are very quick, but you'd also need to ensure all NICs are compatible and a newer AP wouldn't be free.

Perhaps talk to the landlord about splitting the cost of getting Ethernet professionally run in all rooms. It may be the most cost effective solution, but the drawback is you walk away with nothing. The landlord would be able to advertise Ethernet ready infra, so there is some benefit for them to do it.

Tylerdurdon ,

But see, the truly smart scammer would have a potentially decent coin and name it maga-coin. They're looking for anything except government currency...the super scam, or is it?

Tylerdurdon ,

He's just not whole without the blue kielbasa.

...like Kool aid with no sugar, ham with no burger!

Tylerdurdon ,

Send nukes. That may hold off the aliens long enough for Jeff Goldblum and Slappy Smith to get in there.

Microsoft in damage-control mode, says it will prioritize security over AI (arstechnica.com)

Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority, President Brad Smith testified to Congress on Thursday, promising that security will be "more important even than the company’s work on artificial intelligence."...

Tylerdurdon ,

"Microsoft is pivoting its company culture to make security a top priority..."

The fact that this had to be stated is a testament to garbage leadership. Notice it's not even the top priority, just a top priority. These guys will still get bonuses of course.

Tylerdurdon ,

Industry groups can kiss my hairy ass, thank you very much.

Tylerdurdon ,

Damn man, Tiger looks higher than hell in that pic.

Tylerdurdon , (edited )

Meh... Looks like a Trump/Melania hybrid.

Tylerdurdon ,

They filled the truck beds with a bunch of fish. It's actually cod racing.

Tylerdurdon ,

Damnit, I was keeping my celery in there.

Tylerdurdon ,

Being over in Murica, I have no idea on the context, but think it's wonderful if it's real.

Tylerdurdon ,

Remember when scandals were simpler and the would was so stable we had time to care and reflect? Now it's just one more piece of static in the blaring white noise.

Tylerdurdon ,

I've lost a brother and highschool friend to it. You're doing great, man. Stay with it.

Tylerdurdon ,

Watch them claim it's their property...

Tylerdurdon ,

We'll definitely start calling it X now, definitely.

Tylerdurdon ,

Funny enough, that's what I'm playing right now and boy do I love it.

Tylerdurdon ,

Driving is about predictability. You don't do that bullshit in the first place. Same way with "slowing down for people getting on the highway." It's their responsibility to speed up to highway speeds. If they aren't going fast enough by the time they need to enter, they yield, not you.

Tylerdurdon ,

Bear in mind, a system that is built to be a dedicated server will be meant to crunch data. That means 2 things:

  • loud fans

  • heavy electricity use

If you just want a lab, I suggest getting a desktop PC and loading a server OS on it. Practical hardware experience isn't too valuable because platforms change and they usually make them super simple to maintenance with lots of online support. Getting a desktop will also save you some bread on initial investment.

Tylerdurdon , (edited )

Yep, I'm speaking in generalities. Overall, my point is that a homelab doesn't need something expensive because it may not be heavily used, so most of those features are not necessary. If the guy had mentioned running a business or customers, that'd be a different story.

You even had to qualify your own statement that one has to modify hard drive power consumption to achieve acceptable noise levels.

I had a SIEM running on a mini-pc like a champ. It cost me fifteen bucks and taught me a lot. Build to requirement, not title.

Tylerdurdon ,

I'll take 2 brains, hash browns, and a side of bacon.

Tylerdurdon ,

Mmmm, I'm non-stick on the inside!

Tylerdurdon ,

Those rapscallions! How can they disobey like that!?! It's almost as if they are thumbing their noses at the powers that be! Unbelievable!

That being said, if you're drawing national attention with your protest, you're doing it right. Keep it up.

Tylerdurdon ,

Aww yea! I never played that one and the show has inspired me to get back into the universe, so I picked up FNV ultimate.

It was a bit dated at first, so I researched modding and got those graphics in a much better place, along with a ton of bug fixes.

Now to try my hand at Caravan...

Tylerdurdon ,

I appreciate it man. Yes, I followed a video that primarily patched for capacity and bug fixes. It took a good couple hours of work just for that (Vortex is badass by the way). That was the foundation that would allow for the huge amount of graphics upgrades. I've played a good dozen hours now without a single crash/bug.

Instagram Advertises Nonconsensual AI Nude Apps (www.404media.co)

Instagram is profiting from several ads that invite people to create nonconsensual nude images with AI image generation apps, once again showing that some of the most harmful applications of AI tools are not hidden on the dark corners of the internet, but are actively promoted to users by social media companies unable or...

Tylerdurdon ,

AI gives creative license to anyone who can communicate their desires well enough. Every great advancement in the media age has been pushed in one way or another with porn, so why would this be different?

I think if a person wants visual "material," so be it. They're doing it with their imagination anyway.

Now, generating fake media of someone for profit or malice, that should get punishment. There's going to be a lot of news cycles with some creative perversion and horrible outcomes intertwined.

I'm just hoping I can communicate the danger of some of the social media platforms to my children well enough. That's where the most damage is done with the kind of stuff.

Tylerdurdon ,

You know it's getting bad when the PMs don't bother. They know you're perma-fucked. The this-is-fine meme has so much meaning when you live it.

Tylerdurdon ,

That company is generating a huge amount of hate in the industry. It'll be way too late by the time the captains of that ship realize the size of the iceberg they have intentionally hit.

Tylerdurdon ,

I was given a free ticket to an event last night. I did it all using their web page. Their page was very slow and when I finally got to the point where it was supposed to show the ticket, it kept blanking the page right when the bar code would load. Luckily the gentleman at the booth could see it was legitimate and that there was a technical issue, so he printed it out for me.

That monopoly must go.
