I guess I was more wondering why do the name change at all
But I’ve gone and looked it up now and apparently Wally is a less common name over there, so they changed it up to something more familiar.
Which now begs the question: is Waldo a common name over there? I don’t think I’ve ever met or heard of anyone other than this character go by that name
Why do you guys call him Waldo?
6ish, I’d like 8 but I can’t really fall asleep until after midnight unless I’m truly exhausted, then work means I usually need to be up around 7ish
Are we talking time or space complexity?
This might be the most stereotypically American thing I’ve ever seen
Not necessary preppers as that is someone who’s motivation is to mitigate some hypothetical future bad thing happening
I think most self-hosters are doing it out of a combination of technical exploration and mitigating real issues that exist today, e.g. cloud service outages or market exits causing something previously bought to be useful to become a temporary brick or permanent e-waste. Well, and cost in some cases, no one particularly enjoys having an extra bill for hosting.
I miss the keyboard screen series of Logitech stuff, I held onto my G510 a lot longer than I probably should have and only really retired it for something much nicer to type on around 2020.
If Logitech had released something like their G915 but with the screen, I’d have got it in a heartbeat. Even though game support had long dwindled, it was still good for media player feedback, system stats and IIRC there was a third party way of getting notifications from some sites to show up.
I guess smartphones kinda do most of that better these days… Well excluding the system stats, but that was always the fallback if nothing else was worth showing
Damn you guys are sprinting towards cyberpunk dystopia over there aren’t you?
Shame you won’t even get the cool aesthetic as a silver lining, just more tacky gold if anything.
I’m gonna start pronouncing gnocchi as nookie to wind up my partner
I vaguely remember getting into a WPA network (that I owned!) using kismet about 15 years ago with relative ease, but I’m struggling to remember details about that process.
I also remember reading that WPA2 non-enterprise was broken a while ago, however I just looked into it and both of the main exploits I can find were patchable (and have been patched) at client OS level (They were the KRACK and FragAttacks). Seems like there has already been something found wrong with WPA3 too that’s also been addressed.
So yeah as you say back to brute forcing for the most part. Forcing reconnects was a pretty easy way to get more handshakes to record back when I last tried, so I assume that still has decent levels of success, given the prevalence of mesh networks. Looking further it seems people use a tool called hashcat today to get pretty rapid results doing the actual brute forcing using a modern GPU.
But yes very good advice all in all, long passwords and the highest WPA version you can get away with are going to make an attackers job harder.
Thanks for the reply, you got me to go back down an interesting rabbit hole I’ve not looked at in a while
Worth highlighting WiFi blasts all your data in all directions, and unless you’re using enterprise/WPA3 encryption with a strong password, someone determined enough can break in.
If someone wanted to they could park near your house and run aircrack (or whatever the modern suite is called) without you ever knowing. FWIW this is why it’s good to set up a way of getting notified about new devices on your network (most modern non-ISP routers support a way of doing this)
Conversely, I believe most ethernet NICs discard any packet not intended for it at hardware level, they’re super optimised for speed, it would be much slower to leave that for software. I’m not 100% if that’s universal however, so I’d try and double check that
Great, there’s a whole additional angle for getting splashed by a puddle I need to watch out for now
Oh shit, have we discovered the single good horny meme
I’ve been dying to hell you anything that you want to hear
Yep, furnace me on expiration please
If you count a mosh, maybe about 7-8 years ago
Actually trying to hurt someone? Not since I was a kid
Nope sadly, AI needs GPUs and it makes up the bulk of sales of these chips now.
It would be suicide for any of the companies that could make these processors to not go after the biggest market. The result of a company not doing that would be watching all their competitors grow and advance their products whilst their company’s value drops and products stagnate, possibly to a point that recovery to competitiveness would be hard if not impossible.
Ah my memory failed me then! Thanks for the correction, I guess this is technically possible then!
Tarantino & Nolan already got shouts in the thread, so:
John Carpenter for some of the best practical effects in cinema history
You’ve also got the likes of Stanley Kubrick & David Lynch, of course
Talking of Davids, David Fincher feels like he has enough good to make the list
I feel like you could go on a great journey through 80s-00s cinema with films having either Bill Murray or Arnold Schwarzenegger in the cast
There’s probably a lot I’m forgetting
