That show was surprisingly good.

In high school we called it “Worship the Chicken Before It Destroys You”

I think a lot of people assume they know what classic trek is about without even watching it. Hence the surprise when they realize that it’s “woke”.

And this picture doesn’t show the more recent models with the mag lock power, hdmi, and sd card reader.

Type c ports are the best. I connect my monitor through one and it has a type ports on it for a wired keyboard and speakers.

This show was brought to you by viewers like you.

Just Almond Joys and Mounds.

I hear electric cars all the time, they are not much quieter than an ice car. We don’t need to strap lawn mowers to our cars in the name of safety.

FYI that was debunked.

No sir, I don’t like it.

The first thing we need to do to fix healthcare in this country is to decouple health insurance from our jobs. If you lose your job you should not lose your health benefits. And no, cobra is not a substitute.

Hotness aside, I actually prefer the taste of pretty much any pepper over jalapeños.

If your router/firewall is configured to let these broadcasts through you have a problem. If it is working correctly and you have an attacker on your lan? You have already lost.

Yeah, it is fun, but some citations would be nice.

Alpha Centauri was awesome, but so were a lot of the other games. Colonization was a lot of fun. Call to Power is the civ game I want a real sequel to. Going way into the future tech was a lot of fun, and being able to build cities at the bottom of the ocean.

Of course, I think the whole franchise has gone downhill since Civ IV, so take my opinion as you will.

Oh sure, you and your LOGIC.

My county changed the sheriff position from elected to appointed by the county council a few years back. A bunch of people flipped out over it but I think it has been great.

As a side note, why do counties tend to have councils running them instead of an executive, who would get the title “Count”. We need more Counts in America.

I have an anecdote that says the opposite. I got the same fridge, washer, and dryer from LG when we moved in our house 10 years ago and have had no problems with any one of them. My wife hates that we got a model with the freezer as a drawer on the bottom and would have preferred a side by side but no problems with anything breaking.

Our Bosch dishwasher on the other hand had a gasket start leaking during the pandemic and it took the repair people 4 or 5 months to get a replacement in. I think they were redesigning a faulty part at the same time as all the supply chain issues so we had a really bad time with that. It was only a couple years old at the time and has worked ever since.

Side note. Don’t use hardware acceleration with TDARR. You will get much better encodes with software encoding, which is great for archival and saving storage.

Use hardware acceleration with Jellyfin for transcoding code on the fly for a client that needs it.

If you know what your client specs are, you can use TDARR to reencode everything to what they need and then you won’t have to transcode anything with Jellyfin.

You have a point that it will be hard to explain this to everyone on why it is better.

From my understanding, when you use a password manager, the user will enter a pw into it that they remember and the vault will unlock. Then when they go to log into a website, a different, longer, and impossible to remember password will be sent to the site at login. (Assuming they are using the manager well). A week later when they go to log in again, the same long password will be delivered.

The problem is that if a bad actor gets involved, whether it is the website is attacked or they send the user a phishing url or something and the password from the manager is exposed, it will have to be changed. That scammer can now log into that website as the user whenever they want, and possibly any other website that user used the same password for. Hopefully they didn’t if they are using a manager.

With passkeys, a user will log into their manager with a password they remember, but when they go to log into a website, a different token will be sent, based on their key, every time. So if a scammer is listening at the router they still can’t log in again because it has expired.

It is still not a perfect thing, I would imagine that phishing sites could still get a scammer in, who could possibly do bad things or change the login credentials but it is still much more secure than sending a password to the site for the user.

Good luck proving that your data came from meta sources after you paid.
