If you mean signed by your CA then this is me too, albeit with an intermediate CA in the middle (honestly pointless in my case, but old habits etc).
I don’t host anything externally and trusting the CA certs internally is easy as Ionly need to do it on a handful of devices. This + reverse proxy keeps things tidy and uncomplicated.
Reminds me of Popavalium Andropoff’s gutsy effort
(Guessing this didn’t make it out of Aus much, there’s a reference in this UrbanDictionary link for the uninitiated)
Yup, had to read it twice! Just about had a heart attack
Wow, crazy
/quietly withdrawing presidential bid
Yup and that is the same issue with elections. Candidate A wants to ban private jets and burn tyres, candidate B wants to legalise child labour. A wins then claims they have a mandate to burn tyres
But Dr Terrill said the easiest and cheapest solution was to implement congestion charge
This is the kind of thinking that got us into this mess. If you want people to take PT then improve PT rather than making non-PT worse. Don’t punish people for suffering at the hands of a problem that decades of successive governments, the same ones that now want to charge them for it, have created, contributed to, or simply ignored. If someone has spent tens of thousands on something that costs thousands more to register, insure, fuel, and maintain, so they can sit in a stop-start grind for 60-90 min just to get to work, how bad must the alternatives be?
The simple fact is every day heaps of people are trying to get to or from the same place at the same time. PT definitely helps, and would have to remain part of the solution in one form or another, but ultimately it still masks the same place, same time issue. I can’t help but think that getting away from the “CBD” mindset would remove so many issues. And shorter term, stop trying to force people back into the office. Less people needing to go anywhere at all, and those that do aren’t all converging on the same point. Winning.
Of course you also have groups like CBD landlords, car manufacturers, fuel companies etc etc as well as govt budgets that have a vested interest in things not changing, and the safest political move is to just take more money from people who will grumble, but have no choice but to cough up. Rinse and repeat.
Shitting on cars seems popular but imho that is lazy activism, the problem isn’t “cars”, it’s a bunch of things all contributing to them being necessary in situations where they shouldn’t be.
and among advertising, programming, and security professionals that fraction is more like two-thirds to three-quarters
Leopards, face etc
the pairing restriction would “undermine the security, safety, and privacy of Oregonians by forcing device manufacturers to allow the use of parts of unknown origin in consumer devices.”
If only there were options that would encourage the use of safe, genuine parts.
Good call. Being crashed into with a 16km/s closing speed probably would be a hindrance.
I wonder if this kind of thing might make conversions into older cars more viable. If the body and the million computers etc will cost heaps to fix in a newish EV, that might mean an increased supply of electric drivetrains at the wreckers. They’re not exactly a drop-in proposition but having the parts available has to be a good start.
It might be a jumper on the board. Mine (Q770G4) boots on power, if I can organise some downtime with the family I’ll take a look at it (set it up ages ago so can’t remember).
Edit: CAB approval was easier than I expected! Mine is in the BIOS, under Chipset > PCH-IO Configuration, set State After G3 to Power On.
You could replace the names in this with Telstra and NBN and you’d get Aussies having flashbacks
You’re spot on, however the pervasiveness of this kind of data collection and analysis seems to have really picked up in recent years.
In my workplace a similar tool was put in place to keep an eye out for potential fraud, sensitive data being shared, that kind of thing, but at least one exec very quickly started asking questions about “enhancing” it, laughingly suggesting it could help identify flight risks in areas they’re looking to cut headcount in, so they could “remove barriers to their exit” rather than having to pay severance. (To quote the great philosopher Nelly, “I’m just kidding like Jason… unless you’re gonna do it”)
Don’t forget too that this is just monitoring chats, there are plenty of other sources of data that could be used against you if so desired.
IMHO the issue isn’t so much that people are using work-controlled platforms to say things that workplace doesn’t like (though that is an issue), it’s more the shift in the employer mindset that tools like this enable, and the huge imbalance it can create when it comes to salary negotiations, constructive dismissal, mass layoffs, union busting, etc.
It’s well-known that these algorithms push topics to drive engagement, and naturally things that make people angry or frightened or disgusted etc enough are more likely to be engaged with regardless of what that topic is.
That’s simultaneously hilarious and terrifying.
“It’s a well-established and indisputable fact that the earth is indeed flat. Anyone who tells you otherwise is part of the conspiracy and/or a sheep. Forward this onto 10 people in the next 30 minutes or you will get autism. Bill Gates is the CEO of the internet and will track and donate $1 every time it is forwarded.”
That’s what would be called “a swing and a miss”
It’s almost like speculating has risks
Needs a massive safety net with “family money/influence” under the successful gambler
