I just saw one too. Not a particularly bright bird. It was sitting there yelling at me and I said out loud "what's your deal, yo?"

She laid eggs 2 feet from railroad tracks and was telling me to bugger off. They really blend in well! Image

I loooove bad movies. Not religious-bad, more mystery science theater bad.

I rip everything and plunk it into it's own library just for me.

If you have the space and time, go ahead and limit access to her. She's already seen them or will anyway. You hosting a file for one individual isn't going to tip the grand scale of anything.

If you have a moral issue against it, don't host the content. You've already made up your mind, it's just taking you a while to realize it.

Google saw neat idea, built cool software, users happy. Replace cars to generate map data with phones for utmost accuracy. Trends of maximizing profit from cool technology makes users sad and services suck like other popular sites. Host begs Google not to make maps suck next.

Where can I find obscure cnn video?

The video is an old one about Katrina. I need it for homework. I have tried accessing it from CNN's website but CNN in their infinite wisdom put DRM on the video that is publicly available, and I assume that is why it doesn't work on mull, librewolf, or chromium (all show same error about neon request failed). I looked on the...

I assume you don't need the absolute best in quality, but I'd try a screen capture utility.

On a Mac, QuickTime player can record sections.

Oh, to me it sounded like you could access the video, it just had DRM so you couldn't save it.

Different problem

Of course the big question is "what will you use it for" because some uses will run just fine.

I would max that out so fast though.

I researched SFP adapter compatibility for my ISP fiber and came to the conclusion it wasn’t worth it. The copper converter they provide has to be either registered or run ISP based configs. I found one from the same brand and stats as my ONT but it was $400.

I read ISP optical networks use a lot more config to weed out gremlins and compatibility isn’t the same as copper. But it’s mostly ISP based and if they didn’t have a profile for the device, it probably wouldn’t work.

I could be wrong though or things changed since then. I’d like to have fiber straight into my router too.

Illinois just made it possible to sue people for doxxing attacks ( arstechnica.com )

The Civil Liability for Doxing Act, which takes effect on January 1, 2024, passed after a unanimous vote. It allows victims to recover damages and to request “a temporary restraining order, emergency order of protection, or preliminary or permanent injunction to restrain and prevent the disclosure or continued disclosure of a...

I’m courious about exception B (3). Someone could find themselves on a lot of secretive blacklists. If your name got wrapped up in unionization, how screwed could you be?

Netgear GS108LP switch not working ( files.catbox.moe )

Hi, I’ve bought a Netgear GS108LP and it seems that it isn’t working correctly. As you can see in the video, when I power the switch on, the right LEDs (PoE Mode) flash yellow for about 1 second, but the left LEDs (Link/ACT Mode) don’t show anything. The cable connected to port 1 is directly connected to my router and the...

Man, I’ve had problems with that line of switches too. Not that exact model, but similar.

First idea would be factory reset and do that a couple times.

Second idea is unplug everything, reboot, and wait. Then wait some more. Just when you feel like it shouldn’t be taking this long, give it another minute to plug your stuff in.

My particular managed model seemed to have a problem linking at different speeds. Your Hue bridge uses an older/cheaper chip that is perfectly applicable for the device, but runs at a max slower speed. Try not connecting that. It caused all sorts of problems for me and terrible performance for all devices.

Eventually I returned my Netgear unit and got a TP Link thingy that’s been working great.

That would be a neat bot idea. Strip the subtitles and generate a little “article” or summary.

I quickly skimmed the video because I don’t have 17 min to be talked at right now, but if I recall, this has been done in the past. He may have mentioned it though.

“Music” CD-R’s had an additional tax that went to copyright holders. They were the same discs, just more expensive.

I was told by administratiin that a bit of my (and classmates) college tuition went to copyright holders.

And there was a plan to tax ISP’s but I think that one failed to launch.

I did this once long ago. It felt like half the internet banned me.

What is your machine naming scheme?

I’ve ended up with a number of machines on my network, and a need to name them all in a somewhat logical way. For several years I had them named after the planets, which worked well until the PCs for myself, my girlfriend, servers and Raspberry Pi’s quickly summed up to more than the eight planets. I’ve broadened it...

Ahhh, I started with Greek gods too but I threw in some Farscape characters for devices that had to be replaced.
