P. Sure the camera in question breaks in fun ways. From my observations because it can’t update it’s time, so messing with it a bit leaving to a need to update, downgrade, block from the web again.

But it’s worth trying


So it’s more like the top 0.001% who have the voting majority in this wonderful democratic system we all have our life savings dumped into.

What was your attempted point? Or did you not understand the issue that was brought up?


Is that a bad thing? Why would I want someone who can't even manage their own money to manage my life savings? If anything I'd expect a company where the decisions are in the hands of 99% John Smiths and 1% Warren Buffets to be even more short sighted, *especially* when it comes to splurging on dividends.


:)

You still don’t have a say and the investor is also the customer. How is it democracy or keeping companies to being good for society.


This is great. I’m going to start making something like this, but with some cut apple wood knobs, for my birds.


It’s a few games, but a few very important ones.

GTAVs online ecosystem with custom servers. Rust hasn’t enabled Linux Battleye support. Valorant

Some releases that are temporarily popular like BF6, playtest of Battleye games where Linux support isn’t enabled (Fellowship, Exoborne). All games in this paragraph also by Swedish developers. Kom igen, linuxstöd


I’ve seen a few, 9 figure projects to replace essentially 6 devs and three sysadmins.

Another proposed replacement about to fail now, after half the COBOL devs were laid off.

So if anyone needs a remote openvms/hp nonstop or junior z/os dev :D


Curious why the COBOL devs were laid off if they're in the middle of a modernization or some sort of replacement project?


And insurance, and there are telcos still having boxes spinning. And places dealing with inventories or airlines and whatever, or healthcare. If databases helped and it was around before 1992 it might still be running some cobol.


Anyone who’s looked at breach data knows to try yourname+service for any service.

This does help in filtering spam though


It doesn't have to be literally the service name. Can be any unique alphanumeric suffix you make up randomly. As long as you use a password manager you don't have to remember it.


Indeed, it needs to be more than just the company name if you want it to be useful later. If the email address used is company@example.com, any idiot could guess company. But receiving email to company_wkhx46@example.com is clearly gotta be from them, or they got hacked.


That's why you have to salt the + portion (look up an old email from the service if you forgot the alias).


> Anyone who’s looked at breach data knows to try yourname+service for any service

Since we're all using a unique password for every service - <cough> we are doing that, aren't we (!!) - then how does that help?


Probably just trying to save face after having to close down/scale back the startup to zero.

You too can be a 1 man startup founder.


Doesn’t seem like the same pool if you measure 300 counts/min from their hair afterwards.
