I definitely recall talking to someone at Cisco TAC (or maybe Fortinet…but most of my dealings with FortiTAC lately are with the same groups of people…you get to a point in understanding the tech that only certain people can help you…) who has a “villainous” middle-eastern name.

There’s likely more than one though.

Yeah but police follow the money until it gets too hard to pull people in (or someone on the force is protecting them).

So usually they just take your basic B&Es and corner street dealers and shoplifters and leave it at that.

Nobody ever asked why the criminals chose a life of crime.

Nobody goes after the employers that are paying slave wages, training employees how to sign up for welfare, or getting their employees to work off the clock.

The welfare one especially. People get mad at welfare recipients and not the people that put them in that position. Welfare is subsidizing the Walton’s more than anything. They could afford to pay their employees a living wage, but why would they when they can pay the minimum and working-class taxpayers can pay for the rest. Dumbass redcaps should be shunning Walmart, not sucking its proverbial dick.

Oh shit does he work for Cisco TAC? I think I’ve worked with him before. Forgot all about that.

Literally Hitler.

Also hes 59…so he’s born in 1966-ish. Hitler was recent history. That’d be like me calling my kid Suddam Hussein.

Oh really was there someone else by that name already? I hadn’t known.

You’d think at least a nurse or something would be like “uhh you might want to reconsider”.

I think they are saying that her suicide was for the benefit of all humanity.

Getting some Michelle Carter vibes…

I honest to fucking God don’t understand how cybersec is so fucking bad that there are so many damn data breaches that I lost count

Really? It’s hard to understand?

Dude it’s a fucking arms race between cyber security teams and attackers.

And there’s more money in attacking than there is in defending. Defending is an expense. Attacking is almost entirely profit

And some attackers are backed by nation-states.

Attackers only have to get through once. Defense has to work 100% of the time.

Well it’s a good show regardless.

Oh, well, you should. The comment about running a hotel reminded me of it. He was a big part of the inspiration for Psycho (and Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and probably others), and there’s sidebar stories with Alfred Hitchcock and the actor from Psycho.

Did you see the Netflix Ed Gein limited series?

You can’t make mini brains that way, the republicans get mad.

Using a RAM drive for swap?

Am I misunderstanding the point of swap?

Nah, copilot will see the code is unsalvageable. So it’ll start replacing it with code learned from public repositories. Windows becomes Linux. Year of the Linux desktop achieved.

It’ll be reverse engineered and a tool on AliExpress for $50 within a few months. Dealer software will be cracked.

Then it’s just an arms race between the OTA updates and the pirates.

Not OP, but I have been meaning to talk to my Ubuntu admin about Intune on his systems so we can use conditional access on them.

With how difficult it had been to get macs setup, I have a feeling Edge will be the only way it works.

So in enterprise situations…I’d say “Plausible”.

Personally I mostly use Firefox on Linux, but Proxmox gui doesn’t handle that so well…so for that I have an App-isized Ungoogled Chromium window.

In a way, yeah. You’d hope that, more than anything, it’d just be a topical reaction on their skin.

My youngest had real bad skin as a baby that cleared up when we stopped feeding our oldest peanut butter. We had him get a scratch test and it showed positive for peanuts back in like Jan 2020.

He was supposed to be getting put into an exposure therapy trial then, but due to COVID we were never able to book a “peanut challenge” exposure test.

Fast forward to about two years ago when they say they have an opening almost a year out for the peanut challenge.

So early this year we finally take it, and he passed. No therapy at all.

We’d been avoiding peanuts like the plague for 5 years. Getting epipens, making sure they are stocked and in-date at preschool. Always carrying one with us. Stressing out about whether or not we left it in the car too long. Never once using it. We were very diligent about peanuts.

The kid was never allergic. He had false positive tests on the scratch test. In fact, the blood tests always showed no reaction. He just had bad skin, or something.

But now he says he doesn’t “like” peanut butter and is always still making sure he gets sunbutter…but I know him well enough to know he’s actually scared of peanuts and too proud to admit it.

😭 😮‍💨

Yep. Waiting for the day I pull up to the dispensary to find it surrounded by ICE vans.

Country?

This is America.

Liquor licenses are handled by the state or municipality.

At this particular venue (Xfinity Center)…no, I don’t think so. Most of the vendors that are around are in carts with just beer, water, hard seltzer…maybe a canned cocktail or wine cooler.

Maybe at the counter-service vendors, where you could get mixed drinks. Possibly.

They do have water bottle stations though. And you can bring in one empty reusable bottle or one factory-sealed water bottle upto 1 gallon.

Who tf thinks to bring water to a concert tho. You pregame in the parking lot and after your second or third $30 beer…then you realize you really need a water.

The only time I ever bought Liquid Death was at a concert. I paid $15 for a can. I don’t see any humor here. Literally the only option aside from walking all the way to damn near the parking lot for a water fountain.

Probably the only time I felt more ripped off over water was when I willingly spent nearly that much for Gillywater at Universal Studios. Its just regular bottled water. Nothing special at all. At least those round coke bottles at Hollywood Studios were sorta novel.

It reminds me of something…can’t quite tell what.

Maybe the conference room in The Lawnmower Man?

Maybe V for Vendetta? Or 1984?

Idk, but either way it’s not a good look for him.
