Yes, I've been using this since I moved overseas. Works great, was able to add NextDNS for ad blocking.

I still find some websites will block you as your traffic will be originating from a datacenter (if going cloud option like me), but most work. I find this setup also works for some services that do not work via VPNs such as Mullvad.

"He had found a Nutri-Matic machine which had provided him with a plastic cup filled with a liquid that was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
The way it functioned was very interesting. When the Drink button was pressed it made an instant but highly detailed examination of the subject's taste buds, a spectroscopic analysis of the subject's metabolism and then sent tiny experimental signals down the neural pathways to the taste centers of the subject's brain to see what was likely to go down well. However, no one knew quite why it did this because it invariably delivered a cupful of liquid that was almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea."
If a person or a group needs a unique username, then give them the #'less version of it.

Outside of that, the issue isn't a problem.

For a community based platform like Discord it's valuable to let people have the name they want and if that means people make typos from time to time, then that's necessary.

Study. Practice. Just like everyone else. No one "moved into" IT or any other high-skill career without putting in the effort. You can perhaps mentor your sister, which will help.

Paying for courses to learn web development or almost anything in the field seems like a waste of money given the vast amount of free material online.
I and some discord friends use a matrix server as a backup + place for convos involving PII but we only really do text and images. Depending on your needs it might fit for you too.

No, i understand what Twitter is. I was using it as far back as 2009. I have a problem with recent pre-musk changes, such as putting posts from people you dont follow and often dont agree with into your feed to make people argue. If you don't post iften enough, several times a day they will even send you notifications for posts that don't involve you and don't even come from people you follow.

And then there's Twitter turning itself into the arbiter of truth. Users were having blue checks revoked as a punitive measure, which means that it's not really about "verifying" somebody, it's just a stupid status symbol.

They have an AI that will automatically ban you on a whim if you talk about certain subjects; i was permanently banned for over a month for making a joke at the expense of anti-vaxxers before amoderator finally reviewed my case and removed the infraction from my account.

Their role in covering up the hunter Biden laptop leak is also disturbing. I don't even think there was anything noteworthy in the leak, but Twitter censoring something that might be embarrassing for a politician under the guise of combatting misinformation is a scandal unto itself.

These are all things that happened before Elon musk announced he was buying Twitter. It is absolutely a terrible, abusive platform and i cannot fathom why anybody would trust Jack Dorsey to run another social network.
> People might not like who holds the commonly preinstalled keys (Microsoft and motherboard OEMs) but even then you can add your own keys and sign your own images if you want (there was just a post yesterday about doing this for raspberry pis),

I like SecureBoot, and I like that I can select my keys to sign things the UEFI will run, but I don't like that I can't replace the UEFI itself since it's protected by bootguard.

Now if I can edit the UEFI, that's a gamechanger: I could have my signed UEFI payloads check the UEFI firmware has the parts I want (or don't want) and refuse to keep booting if it doesn't

This is such a cop-out. It basically sounds like they're just going to be ordinary earphones then. Even ordinary earphones will damage your hearing at the highest outputs; damage comes long before "ear-splitting" / painful levels. If the regulations permit levels that are sufficient for moderate hearing loss, some mild users will program the levels too high and make things worse.

There are reasonable limitations to be made here: requiring initial settings to be low, restricting how quickly volume can be increased while they're being programmed, having different drivers for different levels of hearing loss (which is already the case for prescription hearing aids), etc. But individual responsibility is fundamentally both a requirement and reasonable presumption. We don't let people who commit suicide by swallowing a bottle full of sleeping pills prevent the rest of society from having access to sleeping pills, nor would we presume that a prescription magically stops people from getting suicidal. Yet the consequences for misprogramming OTC hearing aids are much lower than the consequences for not taking sleeping pills as directed.

Owning my content means it's on my local drive, like with Obsidian (or, well, Apple Notes). I realize that may not be the case with a web-based tool, like Notion or Asana; that is justifiable, but I'd like to know that from the outset. This is where a simple product page explaining the functions and features would have helped.

Automatic backups and sync are great—ordinarily I'd consider that a valuable feature—but if that's optional, as you said, it should not be a requirement for using the tool. Besides making me suspicious, it's a speed bump. I was ready to experiment with your tool until I realized I had to set up an account. At that point, I decided I didn't want to bother.

My assumption is that, until proven otherwise, every tool is trying to sell my data or drive me towards a subscription. If you're doing that, be clear about it. If you're not doing that, be very clear about it. Clarity would engender a lot of good will here, since most of us have learned to assume the worst from SaaS tools. Not having ulterior motives is the exception, and that's great, but I think you need to be extra clear about that.
Crazy idea, if local LLMs are good enough to translate languages reliably, an open source extension that translates every page you visit would be so incredibly useful. You don't even have to change your habits, just carry on like normal, but while becoming a language sponge.

I guess you can already do this with Chrome's built-in translation, but that built-in translation leaves a lot to be desired, doesn't it?

I always felt pretty different. I was never really "abused," but I grew up always feeling more connected with people who have divorced parents or with an absent father. Mine was right there, he drove me to soccer, how could I listen to Everclear and Linkin Park and feel emotionally attached to it? I was the model of middle America. As I grew older I always felt closer to "outcasts" and misfits. My general feeling of disconnected-ness and being different followed me wherever I went. I always felt different. I always felt like there was something wrong with me. I never understood why.

After reading online about what a great book Running on Empty: Overcoming your childhood emotional neglect was, while also feeling like I was running on empty, I decided to read the book. It felt like a biography. It made so much make sense and helped me understand why I've had the feelings I've had most of my life.

Abuse almost always comes with emotional neglect. As time moves forward I imagine most physical wounds heal, but the emotional ones are the wounds that don't heal so easily.

> If your firmware and its UEFI modules were originally signed by these leaked signatures, what are you going to do? You can't just un-trust those.

You are going to tweak them again, and check down the line (ex: grub) that they match the hash you've stored, say inside you secureboot, or in your TPM

This should get you MORE security: before, you had to accept whatever the board manufacturer though it was ok (ex: any WWAN or WLAN cared with just these Ids). Now you can add more checks (just this serial or mac address) and refuse to boot.

Someone could do the same, but if you verify at the next level (ex: grub, etc) that you tweaks are present, you can refuse to boot if they aren't.

Phrased another way:

- 1 in 5 people refused them, entirely.

- 1 in 8 who initially accepted them rejected the second; 5 in 8 who initially accepted rejected the third.

- In a three round series, approximately 2 in 3 overall rejected them before the full course.

I agree people eventually stop accepting bullshit — but we may disagree on what they’re rejecting.

I think your observation is phrased in a way that implies the father has done something entirely selfless and the daughter has done something relatively selfish.

Also, in-settlement transport is the US problem. It's probably fine if a lot of inter-settlement transport remains by car, except for connections between cities of say, more than 200k that are closer than 300km from each other.

> to check if your device is running an unmodified windows OS

Remote attestation sounds secure in theory but its Achilles heel is that at the remote end sb will have to perform a judgement of what „an modified OS“ is. And any wrong decision will stress test that sb‘s support division and might be subject to litigation. Likely there will be some industry standard white list which itself might be subject to manipulation (similar to the compromised SSL root certificates we had years ago).

I can’t imagine this will be set in place for all available PC software.

Furthermore, attestation happens during run time of a software stack that might itself be vulnerable to exploits. An attacker might find a way to short-circuit remote attestation w/o the remote party knowing.

When you deal with narcissistic people or people without empathy, you learn quickly that things like unconditional apologies are not from a place of being sorry but from a place of manipulating behavior and actions.

When you cut a person out, you are removing their power over you. They apologize to get power over your emotional state back.

The narcissist doesn't feel empathy for you. The apology is meant as a transaction, not an expression of guilt or an admission of wrong doing.

That's why when you test the apology ("you'll stop this behavior that results in me feeling bad") the test fails.
I have hearing aids. Costco is probably the best deal on prescription hearing aids. It kind of depends on how bad her hearing is. At higher level of hearing loss sound needs so much amplification that you need good signal processing to reject background noise. Even with the good ones I have I struggle in noisy rooms to focus on a voice. Whatever she tries make sure the return policy is good.

> Taken to the extreme, someone with physical access could replace the whole unit, to something which has the malware pre installed.

Not really. Secure Boot also guards access to tamper-resistant security modules like the TPM. Replacing the whole machine would never give you access to the old TPM. And if, for example, the disk is encrypted using using keys stored in the TPM, replacing the board won't work. Same even for OS-level keychains and credential stores even if the entire disk isn't encrypted.

McMaster's marketing is done well before you type the address into the browser.

Their target custom is someone who needs to quickly get the item so they can go back to their job; make and price are not their concern -- to the extent that you can just email them and say "give me five more shelves" and their customer support people will look through your purchase history to match the model and paint scheme you bought. Or if you're a power plant, you can tell them to get the part to you RIGHT NOW, and they'll pay a courier to drive it from hundreds of miles away. (These are both true stories.)

McMaster's customer behavior is the dream of almost every industry out there.

Originally all forests were all growth forests, so should we have never violated the land and stayed in the stone age? At some point we need to compromise.

> It is fundamentally impossible to completely undo things, trivially so from the second law of thermodynamics.

As in, undo things as a reasonable person would define them. Undoing burning gasoline could indeed involve taxing such that we produce more hydrocarbons (which is possible to do), but what good does burying oil do? I don't agree with much of the article; I think we should benefit from the bounty of the universe and I believe in property rights and the ability to own land. However, more reasonable externalities are still relevant (such as putting pollution into a shared atmosphere or body of water) or potentially even some economic or social externalities. And as the article hints at, addressing the externality of who gets access to the free bounty of the universe.

But its premise: "none would be profitable if environmental costs were fully integrated" is flawed, because the prices would just rise and consumption would decrease if externalities were incorporated.
