Anonymity is impossible with enough data to put together a profile.

Improve user experience?

I don’t give a flying fuck if a web page loads .5 seconds faster.

What u care about is an interface that works, has labels instead of symbols, that doesn’t change every month trying to be more minimalist.

A bank website doesn’t need my browser history or my charges to Amex or what pets I have or what car I drive or the color of my bedroom. But they want all that and a mobile phone number to tie it all up with a common index. VoIP numbers are refused because they change too often.

That’s what pisses me off

PopOS I have to be at the bar and I will have a little early and then I’ll get you some food for the day off the road to get the title and I can come by.

No

Well I also built a Gopher server just for shits and giggles, so why not

Can we just bring back IRC?

Nano works just fine for me

Youtube has helped me save on so many home repairs. 400 service calls become a 30 part and an afternoon of taking the dryer apart with video guides.

True. Even government websites refuse to verify you over a VoIP line.

I’m a self taught child of the 80s that loved to mess around with basic and serial modems when I could finally get 1.

Honestly, I got my first job by low balling the salary and knowing my shit enough to answer questions.

After 1 year I went to a new position paying double. And so on and so forth.

What’s frustrating is that most sites want your phone number. Even though it’s less secure than totp, but that sweet sweet data using your phone number as a common index is irresistible

+1 for CMK. It’s built on nagios. Been using it for decades. That shit is rock solid and has never let me down.

Prometheus is metrics and grafana reports it. IMHO, better reporting and graphing, better eye candy. But also harder to setup and get right.

CMK agent works on 95% of what you want with just the agent.

I always go for Linux desktop at a job. Office 365 runs just fine in a browser. Not ideal, but MS will never give up teams to a Linux Installer again. They took down the 1 they had which wasn’t great but still worked

I bought a RoboGrip, self adjusting wrench, maybe 35 years ago a a Sears iirc. One of the best tools I ever brought and still going strong.

Thunderbird. Hate the redesign. If it ain’t broke dont fix it.

K9 for phone

I still have pgp signs, but no one has used it to encrypt back to me in years. Don’t know why I keep those on there and active

Can’t you just snip the OnStar wires?

There’s always DVDs of this stuff… Doesn’t have to be online.

I use it on reclaimed hardware … Works great for me. Has all the features you’d want for a home lab, and I run a few production hosts there as well

Didn’t they at one point use a bank of PS3s when they still allowed for Linux boot options?

Bash, zshell, BusyBox…you don’t really need anything else
