I feel like using a@[IPv6:2001:db8::1] is asking for trouble everywhere online.

But its tempting to try out, not many people would expect this.

Proof-of-storage based cryptocurrency. The article says when it became non-profitable, the drives were reset so their smart stats would appear new, and sold them as such.

Edit:

FWIW, site says you can check the FARM values with smartctl -l farm /dev/sda if you do have a Seagate drive.

Usually, it's a chain of errors/failures that leads to accidents, after the many years of dissecting and trying to prevent air disasters.

2002 Uberlingen collision is one such case where the reliance on a sole air traffic controller was part of that chain. And that was with one controller instead of the desired two. 50% headcount. Here it's 1 or 2 instead of 14-15? That's 7-14% headcount.

We know overworking people and understaffing introduce substantial risk to managing, assisting, and responding to flights. Even supposing this poor soul could adequately manage the workload by themselves, the introduction of a single problem could throw all of it off.

Semi-related, but several years ago I had a good experience getting my audiobooks from audible with https://github.com/rmcrackan/Libation

WebOS app for me has been working like a champ for a long while now. It's so nice that it just works with my existing remote and everything.

Blocked all traffic to my TV at the router except local, and now it's a beautiful, free beast. Love the jellyfin crew.

I have faith that soon even 'dumb' devices will ship with small multi-year battery powered cell-connected evices that cannot be disabled, and are not part of an OS.

I got the snip when I was 28. Specifically sought out a scalpeless procedure.

Worst part was the awkwardness of just being on the table naked with some dude going to work on my genitals. Virtually no pain, really for me. The only time was when I decided I was done being particularly lazy/careful and did some cooking. Needed to crouch to get a pain and was VERY uncomfortable.

If you know you don't want (any, or more) kids, just don't. Generally speaking, the side effects are worse for your partners to use birth control etc, and its just a one time thing for you.

Installed python3 before it was made the native python on the dist. Half broke everything, including apt & python. So I uninstalled it, and then everything was broken. Finally got python3 reinstalled, and lived with it kindof working & awful distribution updates.

I have finally freed myself of that prison last month, by nuking everything and starting fresh.

Many states ban vote solicitation and signs within 50-200 ft of polling locations. I'm sure it's only for state+ level votes, but it seems to me like having signs saying to vote NO directly on and adjacent to the voting machine for a legally protected union vote should be not legal...

Well if I wasn't done using discord already, I'd for sure be done using it now...

Another interesting one I've seen: Upside.

It isn't necessarily encouraging to buy a specific product, but rather to buy from specific businesses.

To the consumer: they look at the app and buy gas from participating stores, which typically show as having a 5-10 cent discount on gas. The customer uploads a picture of their receipt to confirm the purchase and amount, and get credited that discount. Theres a monthly purvhase target that unlocks a 1 time discount of 30 cents per gallon, etc.

To the business: they pay a fee to Upside to be a participant. Upside promises to only participate with a certain % of stores in the area. It's likely the business also pays for some of the discounts obtained.

Essentially paying upside is meant to increase sales volume. While a gas station could just dicount their gas, they are paying Upaide to effectively advertise and steer consumers to THAT store. As Upside is national, many custpmers use it, even in unfamiliar areas to choose gas stations.

I say not a specific product, because my understanding is it's extended to other business categories besides gas.

Market manipulation, ultimately. I'm sure in some part they are sellong your location & purchase data as well.

There's also logseq, which I would pit into this category, and is open source

FWIW, in the US, seems like you're 'guaranteed' that you'll keep 30 hours worth of minimum wage per week. the minimum wage is abysmal, so ~870 a month, which isn't really enough to survive on in many places. I suspect it would be terribly difficult to pay rent, gas/electric, buy food, pay for public transport and/or gas.

I think this person was dumb. I think they fucked up badly. I think garnishment could make sense if the terms were more reasonable. But I think the current terms could absolutely be detrimental to ones survival.

Title III also protects individuals by limiting the amount of earnings that may be garnished in any workweek or pay period to the lesser of 25 percent of disposable earnings or the amount by which disposable earnings are greater than 30 times the Federal minimum hourly wage prescribed by Section 6(a) (1) of the Fair Labor Standards Act of 1938. This limit applies regardless of how many garnishment orders an employer receives. The Federal minimum wage is $7.25 per hour. Source

The release tags cannot be changed or removed from the commit they were applied to. You cannot reuse a tag.

Immutable releases include protection against repository resurrection attacks. Even if you delete a repository and create a new one with the same name, you cannot reuse tags that were associated with immutable releases in the original repository.

We are doomed if we cannot overcome the dual party system. So long as half our representatives are buddy buddy they can easily band together. Change to ranked choice voting/star/etc. Enabling third party candidates to have a fair shot of being voted in will help reduce that power. Revise the balloting system so you cannot blindly vote down ticket for a party, without even knowing your candidate's name, let alone policies. Speaking of voting, something as simple as printing off an optional validation paper that can be collected by a third party (if the voter wishes) would go a HUGE way to letting citizens double check if there's been foul play in the numbers. Only by getting past the party system will we ever achieve the changes we need.

No-confidence removal for a significant number of offices, including some semblance of tracking campaign promises & policies and potential removal for actions counter to them (voter initiated, not something representatives can initiate). Giving citizens the option of repealling policies with a high enough % vote.

Strict Term limits, age limits. this includes our supreme court. Evidently we may need something more concrete on third terms for presidents, that includes immediate removal & incarceration for encouraging or attempting.

More controversial, but our government should need to be more transparent/open. While they don't have to be pefect, our representatives should be decent people. They should be required to be more open, and subject to more scrutiny, than citizens. Obvious shit like their income & taxes paid, buf likely far more transparent. Secret courts, secret legislation cannot and should not exist, regardless of what spycraft garbage is ongoing.

Bill of rights modernization & expansion, strict, decisive penalties for violations. Revocation of citizens united and tough implications for any company found paying significant money to influence legislation/election of legislators.

Another recommendation, is it possible to make a pool of videos of the same event? Maybe they'd be displayed in a scroll-sideway fashion, or 'other angles', etc.

This most recent murder - Alex Pretti - there are at least 4 or so different angles captured in video. It would be good to archive them together, and easy to link/see together.

Edit: and thank you!

Opnsense on dedicated device, several built in filters + several github backed filters for unbounddns.

Haven't tested it heavily, but the times I am on an outside network not using VPN into my network, or using TOR, etc, i am inundated with ads... So i guess successful internally.

I see Taler brought up, and it always intrigues me.

What is the current state of it? With the app it looks like I can add a bank potentially but there are no payment service providers populated.

Does it currently function in a way I could transfer money between myself and a friend?

And a capital offense needing neither judge nor jury.

ICE is the one who gets to decide, on the spot, if you deserve to die or be imprisoned, or maced, etc.

I use Feishin on desktop instead of the webapp. But otherwise - same setup!
