Looking at how bad our current system is, there’s clearly no need to prevent the videos from getting out because the officer can get away with it despite that.

And even if the officer doesn’t, the department can just scapegoat them and just keep doing the same things.

All the more reason to not waste a 0-day or risk the knowledge of a backdoor getting out.

You’d likely only be able to use it effectively once before people seek out different recording devices, or just the knowledge that cameras were disabled in that area would be as damning as any video.

Especially for any zero-day exploits. As soon as it gets used people start protecting against them so they often don’t work for very long. It would need to be a pretty big coverup to be worth burning an exploit on. Especially if it’s likely that at least one person in the area wouldn’t be susceptible and could still record it.

Working for the agency isn’t the problem on its own. If your job requires you to do something that is against your morals, resist up to and including loudly leaving that job if that’s what’s required. But until then it’s more important than ever to stick it out and push to make things better any way you can.

Don’t rely too much on ChatGPT here. It’s not a human and isn’t going to respond the same way a human would.

If you over practice with that tool you might become great at debating ChatGPT but that may entrench bad habits that hurt you when debating a human.

I think this is the strongest protection against this attack. You’d need to identify enough people at enough varied polling locations to be significant enough to sway an election.

Do too many at one location and it raises flags. Cast a vote with a name that also votes absentee or at another location, raises flags.

You’d have to distribute enough fake votes over a large enough area and across enough different shifts to not get anyone’s attention. And that’s expensive and hard to keep secret due to how many people would be involved.

A lot of food safety laws are built around the highest levels of safety because you never know how vulnerable one of your patrons might be. I have no idea about the actual health impacts but based on that I assume it’s another minor vector for foodbourne illness that alone has a really small impact.

I’m more worried about what it means about the rest of the kitchen’s cleanliness. Hairnets/hats are easy, so if they can’t do that then what else are they forgetting?

I’m not sure on the rules/general use but my ear agrees with this. As soon as you put an “and” between them nearly any order seems totally normal.

I think it might depend on if the person mooning is moving toward the victim and if the victim is “in range” of…the butt.

If someone was backing that (bare) ass up on me I’d definitely feel threatened, or if they moon me so close that they might spray me.

If you’re memorizing your password, don’t change it too often because it’ll just confuse you and encourage you to pick easy to remember passwords which are less secure. Change your password if you hear about a hack, or have reason to suspect your password got leaked. Otherwise there’s no need.

If you have a password manager though, go off. Change it as often as you’d like.

(Also 2FA, unique passwords per site, etc etc etc)

Nope it all just worked, it really surprised me honestly. I expected to need to do some weird tethering to a raspi or something to make it work but I didn’t need any of that. (Well, I had issues because it turned out lightning borked my router, but that was a different issue entirely.)

That’s true, but with the Ethernet connection you can tether to a router directly. When my Internet was down I was able to tether my entire home for the time I needed to get some updates finished to get my docker environment back up and running. I had no idea that was possible before that.

Sorry I don’t have any suggestions, but I’m very curious about your use case. What led you to needing this?

Are you doing web dev with just a phone? Impressive

Why thank you, Cunningham’s Law in action yet again.

Amazon’s gaming framework can’t be used to thwart zombie apocalypses.

Edit: I was wrong, see comment below :)

USB OTG on android phones is severely underrated.

• I can plug in a USB drive and transfer files around, I’ve used this to manage my retro handheld SD cards before.
• You can tether your hotspot over Ethernet to your computer with an Ethernet adapter.
• You can plug Ethernet into your phone to get faster connections.
• You can plug a mouse into your phone and get a cursor on screen. Not super useful tbh, but kinda cool.
• You can use your phone as an external webcam for your computer.
• It’s a bit more annoying than it used to be but you can use your phone as a universal IR remote with a small adapter and free apps (I miss my built in IR blaster from my S3).
• I haven’t used it much, but I can plug in a RTL-SDR dongle and get aerial TV on my phone, or a radio spectrum analyzer. I used it to discover that my garage remote is about to die and that’s why my car’s garage button won’t learn the signal.
• USB (or Bluetooth) game controllers just work.

Definitely a relatively niche usecase but I have SSH clients, terminal apps, RDP remote access clients, and other networking tools as apps on my phone for quickly messing with things. Very helpful to not need to bring out the PC when I’m fixing my network.

The ability to VPN into my home network to access my NAS. Honestly being able to access my NAS in general is already great for backups or just so I don’t have to think about what’s physically on my phone.

With a cheap Bluetooth device I can connect to my car’s diagnostic port (ODBII) and check engine codes. No more trips to the mechanic just to get it diagnosed.

WiFi direct cameras are a great addon too. I have a wifi endoscope (camera on a long bendy stick) for inspecting inside walls and my phone works as a screen for it.

Dust will get in pretty much no matter what you do. I wouldn’t worry about it. If you live in an already really dusty environment then get some sections of filter and attach them inside of these holes but honestly I wouldn’t worry.

It’s for water cooling loops if you want to mount the rad or pump or something outside of the case. I think it was more common in the early days of water cooling when things were less standardized.

I’ve added a “Everyone except Bob Smith can use this software” a la “fuck Anish Kapoor” clauses for paint colors before.

Though honestly it would be hard to enforce.

Of those, ketchup for sure. It’s simple, straightforward and combos well with most other things.

Just don’t put it on pasta.

Nope, the other commenter got it. It was Microsoft Ants. Sim Ant is what most people guess when I have brought this one up before though. I’ll have to try it sometime.
