Maybe im encroaching on a bit of history i dont know well enough, but isnt tribes of Israelites just a fancy way of saying Egyptian refugees? Deport them - I bet they even came in caravans, didn’t they?

This is why you should hire me, the pen tester tester. For $2000 I’ll make your network slightly less secure to see if the pen test catches it.

This is how you radicalize actual children. It’s clear these people are completely oblivious to the fact that every 10 year old in the country knows among us and plays it. Actual children will see how completely absurd all of this is. I love this move. Go ahead, show the children how utterly out of touch the top is.
- Comment on When leftists say "landlord are parasites" or similar dislike of landlords, do they also mean the people that own like a couple of houses as an investment, or only the big landlords? 1 week ago:
Nobody is forcing you
No, but if they don’t, someone else will.
This is supposed to be where the law/govt steps in so nobody CAN profit off of basic needs like this. Just like Healthcare, we can have a mountain of limp CEOs and still nothing will have changed until the law changes.
But maybe I’m wrong, maybe we should let The Adjuster do his job and see what happens. I hope property management CEOs realize they’re the #2 spot underneath health insurance.

At the very least there should be one of those pfp filter things that puts anyone’s face into the photos NYPD released. Meme remix the wanted posters so you can’t even find the original

- Comment on This scammer pretending to be Greenpeace 5 weeks ago:
I dont know. I agree with your point, but I think there’s more benefits to keeping it intact. Maybe a middle ground is to mark up the photo with ‘SCAM’ ‘DO NOT USE’ etc, but leave the address intact. It’s a phishing scam, so the address is the only info anyone has to potentially track them down. Maybe the address was used somewhere else, and there it can be tied to a person. The top comment here is someone already creeping on the address, which confirms:
-
people do do this legwork in the crypto world, there’s probably exchange admins and the like punching the address into their own databases and just not informing us because they didn’t find anything.
-
Noone has been dumb enough to send to that address yet, even before it was getting called out as a scam
If it’s censored noone can do even a cursory glance into it

Sisters Brothers. it has decent reviews when i look now, but it seems to have flopped real bad at the theaters. I watched it free on YouTube and was amazed by it, and then I looked it up and saw it bombed. $38m budget, $13m box office. Oof

Heck yeah, the Washington monument in DC is capped with aluminum like how the egyptian pyramids used to be capped with gold, because aluminum used to be a precious metal. (Sure, its a nice lightning rod too) Now it’s so common you can find it in the trash on the side of the road
- Comment on Fritz Haber moment 1 month ago:
I find it fascinating that this exact process that was discovered in order to create weapons during war is also whats used to create the majority of the worlds industrial fertilizers. It’s singlehandedly the biggest leap in food production ever, more than GMOs or crossbreeding or anything. It’s basically the main reason we are able to support a global population in the billions. We’ve used it so much that we are dependent on it

I love the way Russians carry over their curse-as-punctuation into English. I don’t know russian enough to really describe what’s going on that well, but they usually toss the blayt on the end of a sentence, but it feels different than how we do in English. Like, if we say ‘this fucking guy’ it’s very different than ‘this guy, fuck!’ There’s a lot more anger to it, right? But you can catch Russians saying in english ‘this guy, fucking…’ when they want to convey the feeling of ‘this fucking guy.’ I love it every time I catch it.
- Comment on Home Depot Orders Corporate Staff to Take 8-Hour Retail Shifts 2 months ago:
You’re not lying. I regularly buy spools of cable, and I used to have to hunt for an employee clear across the store. They put it out on the walkie and 15 minutes later someone wanders back to the wire cage. I just go elsewhere now, it’s cheaper everywhere else anyway.

And after I made an AHK script to check all those boxes, I’d make another AHK script to beat the shit out of that game in 10 minutes. If it’s multi-player I’m specifically ruining the fun for others with my cheating. Fuck games like that, fuck companies like that.
They unknowingly provided me with a completely different game to play.

- Comment on Please pick a password starting with ad and ending with min 3 months ago:
ISP worker here. Our chosen routers default to an 8 digit password, the first 4 are the last 4 of the mac in hex, which anyone can easily see being broadcast by the wifi network. The last 4 are a part of a unique serial number, but its just 0-9. Ultimately, if you try to brute force this default password, you need 10000 tries. It takes a regular GPU 2 minutes with hashcat. It baffles my mind that companies think this is OK.

Also, OP, dont be afraid to jump straight into mods. You dont have to fuss with a single file. Right from the start, inside the client, you can join modded multiplayer servers. The mods are automatically installed and applied then and there. Zero setup! I say this because a whole heap of mods are strictly quality of life and they really ease the learning curve.
However, picking and choosing your own mods for your own server is the headache you might expect. Let some saintly admin do all that work for you.

Weird. You have two top level comments, and two replies in this thread where you’re offended that someone might find humor in an aspect of their job. Are you ok, dude? Is DNS your girlfriend? Should we stop talking about her? Youve been in IT for 30 years - maybe its time to retire.

They actually make things just like this for this specific purpose. Amazon has a 7 pack for $5, and Ive got them from Home Depot too. Looks like theyre calling them a “Hair Drain Cleaner Tool”

I once worked a stint for UPS doing package sorting. I definitely used that time to take some mental notes for any future shipping of mine. One big thing to pay attention to is keeping the weight/center of balance FIXED. Preferably low to the bottom and centered, but definitely fixed fixed fixed. Packing peanuts might still let something heavy shift around. Some folded up cardboard to keep heavy stuff fixed in one spot can go a long way to keep that box together.
The reason comes down to the belts in the sorting facilities. Some conveyor belts will suddenly tilt up at like 35°. If your contents shift the right way at that moment, the contents will start to use your box like a hamster wheel, counteracting the movement of the belt, and it will stay there doing flips until another package takes a beating helping it, or the jam is cleared. Even worse, it could climb that 35° incline and instead wobble wrong all the way at the top, and come tumbling down 30ft. You grow to learn the sound of a tumbling package, because immediately after the tumble it hits a small metal lip 2 ft from your head, shoots across your work area, and lands where you just grabbed it from. I think the max limit on that belt was 60lb packages.
Auto mechanics, this is specifically why your alternators are always beat to shit after UPS ships them.
This was also 10+ years ago, maybe they addressed the careening packages of death
