A lot of stores keep track of which aisles you spend more time in, that information is then shared with their “partners” (ad networks). By the time you made it home, they had already shared that you bought bits and that your device spent a while looking at cabinet hardware.

They don’t make boots like they used too. My boots from back then (just over 20 years old now) are still in great shape, Bates made some rock solid boots back then (either that or all the polishing in basic made them invincible).

As long as they understand those electricians and plumbers should be charging them 5-10x what they are charging now. If their AI can’t do it, it’s gone from blue collar to bespoke work.

Well you definitely can’t let it leave after hitting you, it’s got to remain at the scene to exchange insurance information. Hit and runs should be treated the same as a delivery driver hitting someone then leaving the scene.

If you use an adhesive bandage, you can position it so it doesn’t get glue on the lens (if you ever actually use it).

LMDE for the win on old laptops!

(And new desktops)

Sounds like an awesome setup, but I’ll stick with remembering the IP:port, its just easier for me to remember numbers than whatever words I used when I set it up.

Makes sense, I do something similar but just for things I want to access externally. I started adding some internal only ones but ultimately decided I was too lazy to remember the names and already knew the IPs/ports.

I’m just curious about the reason for both a reverse proxy and wireguard? If using a proxy (Nginx/etc), I would expect it to be exposed to the internet.

Yeah, that would have been a no-brainer for most people, but he also mentioned paying by debit card which seems like a bit risky too.

Late to the party but congrats on getting them up! Might I also suggest bazarr (https://github.com/morpheus65535/bazarr) so you don’t have to find subtitles manually.

If you aren’t a fan of RustDesk, one alternative that I’ve used a bit is Remotely (https://github.com/immense/Remotely). Me and a few people were using it but most of them went to RustDesk.

If RustDesk doesn’t do what you need, Remotely worked great for me and helping a few family members (though probably a bit more features than you may need).

There is also the other path… Use the sensors they are installing everywhere, it’s not like security is a feature on most of these cameras.

They do! He just doesn’t realize it yet.

They do make a really low base but are required by law to recieve at least minimum wage after tips. Some wait staff lie on their tips in order to avoid paying taxes on them, others lie because if their employer thinks they aren’t getting enough tips to cover their pay, that they must be a bad employee.

0% means something was wrong where I live (rude service or completely bad service does not make me want to pay an extra amount in gratuity), 10% has been standard as long as I can remember though (it was even part of the “real American heroes” bit from decades ago).

A long time ago I felt like bug bounty programs would be an amazing way forward… Now I’m firmly in the camp of fuck it, sell it to the highest bidder.

Just like so many other things, I’m sure that bit will be buried.

Unless I misread it, they are denying the security theater approach and insisting that if it’s rolled out, it must include the safeguards, not just saying they promise to have them ready in the next 18 months. Meanwhile other countries seem to be okay with implementing this before the safeguards are in place.

I’ll just patiently wait for the next wave of 0days exploiting it.
