It will perform a little better than a cell phone sharing internet if your signal is marginal. I’ve never really liked cellular based internet for home, but if it’s all you have…

Thank you for the extra knowledge there most helpful!

So I have never experienced it at all. But my wife, at least once a week will mention something random and get an ad for it. If it were just purely confirmation bias I should be seeing the same biases.

The last one last week she mentioned checking out a certain store 10 minutes later she got around to searching for it. Google auto completed “where can I” with find (whatever store she was looking for) It was the first time she had typed it in and it was dead on what we had been talking about.

It’s definitely not everyone and everything every time but it happens in awful lot for coincidence.

eBay reports income. Try marketplace and list items as ask for price.

One possible cause of the infections is that the devices are running outdated versions that are vulnerable to exploits that remotely execute malicious code on them. Versions 7.1, 10.1, and 12.1, for example, were released in 2016, 2019, and 2022, respectively. What’s more, Doctor Web said it’s not unusual for budget device manufacturers to install older OS versions in streaming boxes and make them appear more attractive by passing them off as more up-to-date models.

I mean there’s knowing and there’s being certain. This seems quite likely.

This by far was what I hated most about Reddit. Oh look a sub where I can finally get a good answer to that question…

Blocked, go take it to tip of my tongue. But they’re not about crowdsourcing… no

ut never called it that. And I mostly would background or foreground tasks. I didn’t

yeah I had no idea about disown, Jesus the number of times I could have used that, I might have never learned tmux or screen :)

Had a little spark of glee looking at a fellow nix user in the wild

Put it in the sauce.

Meh, physical security is king.

You keep em out of your building, out of your parking lot, if you want to shield the outside, that’s ok, but simply don’t let them in to snoop.

The definitions picked up as a different name from everything almost everybody just refers to it is a generic Trojan.

It could very well just be a false positive but I wouldnt leave it at that.

An offline windows defender scan would be a good idea.

You can always switch over to bitdefender there’s a free version of you search hard enough. Don’t run Windows defender and bit defender at the same time long term but it’s not a bad way to get a second opinion.

I’ve run both. Started with Gnome.

I didn’t absolutely love the UI but it wasn’t bad.

Installed a bunch of plugins poked it, prodded, tweaked it. Made it exactly what I wanted.

One time I tried KDE and found that it was exactly what I was turning gnome into with all the plugins.

Admittedly, I think the Gnome control panels and tools are nicer.

Fuck your GP, get another. You’re having an immune system problem. It might be there’s nothing that can be done, but you need to be properly checked. That pain is your body fighting itself and it’s not good.

I’m the mean time, start a regular regiment of naproxen, soak your knuckles in rather warm water to alleviate temporary pain and get into a new GP ASAP.

/opt/(app)/bin /usr/lib/(app)/bin /usr/lib64/app/bin /usr/local/(s)bin

I know there is logic and mapping of where everything’s supposed to be in theory but in practice s***'s kind of all over the place.

It’s easier to manage security that way.

Instead of having one binary folder full of stuff that’s intended to be run with privilege access and non-privilege access, all the privileged stuff goes in sbin and you don’t even see it in your path as a regular user. It also means that access rights can be controlled at the folder level instead of the individual file level.

Sure it’s getting cheaper, but is it getting cheaper faster than their need for it?

I’ve always expected their business model was unsustainable probably only able to manage through venture capital and growth.

There’s hardly even any competition, their free product is substantial. Even fully funding a server is barely enough to cover a bare metal node.

This is just the introduction to cost savings. As they wade into market saturation, and still need to provide growth in numbers they’ll need to pinch the free users into paying and pinch the paying users into paying enough to fully fund the service. Of course it won’t stop there…

Edit: FFS dictation can’t ‘their’ it’s way out of a wet paper bag.

I’m not against Rust. I’d like to see something less dangerous with memory than C, but I don’t think it’s time yet for the kernel to leave C.

It’s pretty clean, stable, it’s working well at the moment and the C language (or variants of it) is/are still actively used everywhere. I think the kernel universally going Rust will be a long road of everything under the sun going there first before it’s ported in earnest.

1. Eventually all the people who know and are good at cobol will die.
2. A while before that happens, the people who know it will continually demand more money for their rare skills.
3. Eventually, the cobol systems out there will need to interface new systems in some way it wasn’t designed to and it’ll be more expensive to shoehorn the remote system than to let the ancient beast retire.

k even when they were taking the $$ out. Th

Happened at a previous company for me too. They were paying people with their own 401k’s for quite some time before they went under. Some of my coworkers were putting in max contributions.

No one ever saw any of that money back. The management just rolled into a new venture like nothing happened. There were tons of lawsuits but they had all their money hidden away.

I didn’t hide it. I said hey, I oopsed that!

We could still scale at a reasonable pace but they more or less made it unnecessary in about a month.
