True, but while I have access to something I back it up by nature. They can probably take it off of something they can access but those devices don’t have access to my whole network so I’m gonna stick with my original thought, Sony can fuck right off.

(Really good points though)

She was just a bit shy of 80, so I don’t think she qualifies for this list.

If the button said “Buy” or “Purchase”, ownership of that item is transferred (obviously not the IP itself). After you buy it, the supreme court has weighed in that you can make your own backups of “media” previously so Sony can fuck right off.

Yeah, sadly I don’t think it will either, I’m just hoping the jury decides the precedent they truly want to set.

The issue I’m seeing with the whole case is they siezed his phone, they kept his phone, the seizure of his property happened successfully. A person later entered something they believed would open it but instead it wiped it. The end user didn’t wipe it, and didn’t lie to the agents of the state because a duress PIN is still a PIN, I’m willing to wager they didn’t specify that they wanted his ‘unlock PIN’ and instead just asked him for a PIN (personal identification number), which he gave.

Ads killed cable. I still remember having cable briefly in the 80s, we recorded everything on our VCR (anything good) and the best part was those tapes had no commercials.

Granted the cable only had 99 channels max as the two digit red display only had two numbers, but it was glorious.

Meanwhile I’ve got 16GB and opening a third webbrowser causes shit to randomly close… Lol

No one wants to hear the First Lady try to sing that!

Just price it absurdly, make a bottle of Jack Daniels $2,500 and if some dumbass buys it, the store gets a good payday and the bottling company successfully sells 1 bottle.

I had to RTO to an empty building, after a year and a half or two, two more people moved into the building. All I can think is ‘why must I sit in traffic for an hour everyday to be 80 miles away from my coworkers?’… Then the mortgage comes due and I remember why I deal with the traffic and remember how nice it is not really being contactable after hours (computer stays in the office). I gave way too many free hours away just because I was already in the home office while I ate breakfast or hung out during lunch just because.

It was a Maximo game for the PS2, I don’t remember which but I’m screwed if I can’t figure out how to keep my armor on.

100% more like a Family Dollar during clearance season than ‘old money’.

I’ve been using an old rack server to run a handful of containers (Authentik, jotty, crap like that) for the past few years… I’d been gathering parts for a while and when I built it I had 768GB of ddr4 laying around, so that’s what it got. Well for the past year I’ve been wanting to shift to something lower power… It might be the time to make the investment into an usff pc and scrap this thing out.

$1400? Damn I hope I get that lucky if ever need an ambulance ride.

I don’t code either but prefer the Gitea instance in my basement over anything MS hosts.

WMIC allows an amazing amount of control for admins that know what they are doing. One of my favorite uses was back when I worked helpdesk, users would exit Lync and be unreachable, well WMIC can allow an admin to open that app back up in the users session and then they are suddenly reachable again.

Some people use the old psexec, others have been using WMIC since before powershell even existed.

Same here… Over the years I even ended up with a modem and HDD for it. Great system.

Man I wanted a Tesla roadster one day, then he touched the company and it turned to shit.

I mainly carry thumbdrives for larger files or things I don’t want hosted online.

That’s what I would go with if I was inclined. Create a volume the size of the drive and add a hidden volume with a different password within like we’ve been doing for years (decades at this point maybe almost).
