The other guy thought it was too much of a pain in the ass to even spell 737 correctly tho. But yes, some things absolutely should be a pain in the ass. Like when something going even slightly wrong will likely kill someone.

As a veteran with PTSD, DPDR, that has spent a lot of work, time, and money to not have a bad day. If I cannot prevent myself from committing acts of violence please just put me down.
There is no reason my existence, for whatever reason caused it to be fucked up should cause harm to others. As a survivor of abuse at the hands of Catholic Church, nothing justifies harming children. As a TBI traumatic Brian injury survivor of war, my continued existence and freedom for self determination doesn’t justify continuing to abuse others or commit unsanctioned acts of violence against others.
If I am incapable of controlling myself or not causing harm to others I should not be allowed to cause harm to others simply because I am a faulty individual that has been harmed or suffered. My suffering does not justify causing others to suffer. Get out of here with that bull shit. If the person refuses medications, therapy, work then the only alternative is involuntary treatment.
There is a reason it’s slightly more expensive tho. They don’t even bother to force or nag you to connect to Wi-Fi / Internet so the manufacturer can start selling data on what you watch… Sony charges a little more because the TV is for profit, instead of your data being the profit product.
They aren’t all that much more expensive at Costco anyway. Also it’s not like I’m buying a TV ever few years.
Shit my Sony Trinitron CRT still works. That really is buy it for life. Less can be said about Walmart specials.
Yea Exact Audio Copy in secure mode will re-read each sector double-checking results until it has a consistent perfect rip. It takes a little while longer, but the results are worth it.
Bro,
I have been using Google before 2000
Had an early invite to Gmail. Got mobile search results over text message before smart phones.
Google maps didn’t even launch until 2005.
Some of us went places and did things before Google+
I don’t disagree that if I want to go somewhere I might search g maps.
But the search results are really shit lately.
I miss competition with several web spiders
I feel that engineer is shoehorned into a lot of job titles nowadays… But I also now work in software engineering. I have a degree in CS as well as degrees and certs in cybersecurity.
Should I need to be licensed by the State to discuss the lack of cybersecurity in systems?
If anything, my studies, and application of project management pay more benefits than my CS certifications and degrees. SMEs really lack the ability to explain to management how it costs more to screw around and half ass some fantastic plan than to, you know, just get minimum viable product going then integrate improvements.
Previously I worked with aircraft where safety is written in blood. Yet in software dev I still have a hard time convincing people to provide a software bill of materials even though it’s required. It’s still the wild west. Even when DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas termed “killware” only a few took notice.
I guess what I’m saying is that we care more about Netflix uptime than we care about if water treatment plants or infrastructure that could literally kill people if it fails insecure.
The problem is qualified people already built a lot of the systems that are either no longer secure or no longer up to the task post IoT and climate change. How do we admit that qualifications aren’t the problem? The problem is lack of continued penetration, stress, fail safe, or regression testing!
ESU is a paid service for enterprise. They didn’t even offer ESU for windows 7 home at all for any price.
Windows 7 pro ESU per device cost $50 for 1 year, $100 for the next year, $200 for the final year.
Windows 7 enterprise was per device 1 year $25, second year $50, and 3rd year $100.
Micro$oft is not going to give win10 ESU away for free and they probably won’t supported home edition.
You can however bypass the win11 hardware checks to upgrade unsupported devices.

There were networks such as: EFnet Undernet Quakenet DALnet
different servers in different regions did network together.
There was a different word for ‘defederation’ back then: net split https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
And it was usually from a networking issue.
I’m still salty that an IRCOP from a (now defunct) Canadian server used a net split as an attack: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC_takeover
to steal a # channel from my friends and make it private long enough to sort out the bot auto bans. We appealed, but because they were an IRCOP, the other IRCOPs from the federated servers were just like, “whatever, pound sand users, go run a server if you want to control stuff like us.”
Anyway, IRC was a connection of various servers run by various people/corporations/universities etc.
Yea. And most of the data is already cloud backed up anyway. Which means you can restore it. Also means it’s not really your data either and someone else has access to do what they want with it.
If you’re worried about losing access cuz you lost your 2 factor FIDO2 key or One Time Password or whatever you can print off “backup codes” and put them in your lock box.
But if you don’t backpack your data locally then whomever you delegated backups to can cut you off at any time for any reason.
Google shut off access to this parents account after he took a photo of his child’s genitals for teledoc and sent it to his wife over Google chat: https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/21/technology/google-surveillance-toddler-photo.html
There is a point where some fruits are more dangerous than others to give a toddler, such as grapes.
But you can bulk make a lot of purees with a hand mixer. On the weekend I would batch cook and bulk freeze a lot of different purees before they could have solid food. There’s these silicone trays a little larger than ice trays you can use to freeze the purees, then put them on a ziplock bag and pull one or two out to defrost in the microwave real quick.
You don’t have to use everything fresh, you can use frozen fruits/veggies and even do Passata - Strained Tomatoes no salt added, with spaghetti, or Mac n cheese. We had concerns about the level of salt in premade foods so we made our own on the weekend and froze it all. Low sodium lentil soups are ok too.
It ended up being a lot cheaper just to spend an hour on the weekend batch cooking for the kid and batch cooking for lunches to take to work too.
Finally I got a little plastic masher and used that, as soon as they were old enough do it themselves. They wouldn’t eat anything they mashed at first but they loved playing with it.
Now they just grab apples and other fruit straight from the fridge.
Our doctor said not to give them juice or fruit packs at all. The doctor did say chocolate milk mixed with regular milk is a good treat that’s safe and hydrating tho.
It’s honestly saved me time and money just to put in an hours work on the weekends instead of buying premade.
Yea, the grind is becoming impossible though. My old man worked a summer job and could afford university all year on that.
After joining the military for the GI Bill, finishing that commitment, I worked in IT to keep us afloat while my wife went to university.
I left at 5AM for work, worked as much OT as I could, after work instead of sitting in traffic or stuffing on the train like sardines I studied, did all my IT certs, and left work at 7pm. The weekends I worked a second job doing IT. All through university I worked IT on nights and weekends.
The grind you have to do to reach “middle” class is becoming: come from money to afford college, or go into debt for life for uni, or work nonstop always.
How can people take care of kids, family?
