Suddenly remembering those youtube videos about that super bouncy metal toy with a stainless steel ball…

I’m in cybersecurity and being a heat pump technician is starting to sound very appealing. Can’t seem to convince my younger brother tho. Guess we all gotta make our mistakes before we can learn.

I have a barstool I put on the treadmill for breaks. Just comfy enough for a rest but you’ll still find yourself wanting to stand up again after a while. And so far I haven’t accidentally turned the treadmill on while sitting.

Buys a nice ergonomic chair. Sits in it like this.

Their schools were already orders of magnitude cheaper. Get ready for extreme brain drain!

John… uh… look… why’s it a postcard-O?

… that isn’t Duncan it’s Gurney.

Using the duress password could potentially be charged as destruction of evidence. If you can refuse to enter a password long enough for it to auto wipe before a judge orders you to unlock it you could avoid the danger of legal consequences. No destruction of evidence and no contempt of court.

Been using it for a while and it’s great.

Next up: auto wipe device after x days of no authentication.

Tip on using StreetComplete: Don’t be afraid to turn off a bunch of things. If you leave everything on you’ll often find yourself standing around one place instead of enjoying more of the area and answering a smaller set of questions.

It’s a funny irony but a Pixel with GrapheneOS is the gold standard for mobile device security. Buy it secondhand and cut out their profit.

I put mint on a separate drive over the weekend. My two outstanding issues are my already-niche pieces of hardware. My KVM doesn’t pass USB devices to my other device for some reason. I’m reasonably confident I can figure that one out. My other issue is my HID NFC reader for my Yubikey. No official driver for Linux so I expect that one to be more tricky, though I’d appreciate if anyone can point me in the right direction.

Ha. I knew the fediverse was full of you old bastards. … So who’s got a house that’s nearly paid off? I find that very hot.

I despise the marketing of these eink-like screens. None of the biggest benefits of eink with all of the biggest drawbacks? The fuck?

Oh, look: the NSA dangling a carrot on a line.

All for it though it’s best done when renovations are possible. Was at a place where they did it with multistall bathrooms and you had to guess which one had urinals.

Edit: of course could also just add a sign saying urinals here.
