Our Strange Lingo
When the English tongue we speak.
Why is break not rhymed with freak?
Will you tell me why it’s true
We say sew but likewise few?
And the maker of the verse,
Cannot rhyme his horse with worse?
Beard is not the same as heard
Cord is different from word.
Cow is cow but low is low
Shoe is never rhymed with foe.
Think of hose, dose,and lose
And think of goose and yet with choose
Think of comb, tomb and bomb,
Doll and roll or home and some.
Since pay is rhymed with say
Why not paid with said I pray?
Think of blood, food and good.
Mould is not pronounced like could.
Wherefore done, but gone and lone -
Is there any reason known?
To sum up all, it seems to me
Sound and letters don’t agree.- Lord Cromer

Possible. On the other hand, modern games a crammed full of analytics. Wouldn’t be hard to send signals for every secret and then check if any game has reported those in question as found yet.

This is a nice demonstration - and it probably isn’t even much work to run this segment in the show. Those people do not think about covering their tracks, as they do not have “anything to hide”. Also you only need to find a few easy targets in the whole audience group.
As for shooters and such - some have a message to broadcast with their actions and make it easy to link those posts to them. Others may not grasp the amount of tracking and surveillance and may be just bad at covering their tracks. Also they probably didn’t factor in OpSec that much. Granted, they might cover up in the days or weeks before, but there may still be some (years) old posts that they didn’t think about that makes them easy to identify.

Yeah. When they announced the new Silent Hill I was somewhat interested - although I felt the peak was back then with SH2. But having read about the remaster of SH2 and some reviews that said, it’d return to the roots? Nice!
Then I saw a streamer play it early, watched a bit and it looked promising. So I went to wishlist it. Then the release day comes and steam lists it for 70 bucks (available in two days) or 90 bucks now. Well, no. Let’s see how long the price will be that high, but WTF? I don’t wanna know what’s the price on console for it - usually it’s 10-20 bucks more?!?

When I was working at a local supermarket, we had the instructions to explicitly ask anyone for ID that we deemed 40 or younger, when they tried to buy tobacco or alcohol. For that exact reason.

Also modern Bluetooth devices send their battery level to the connected device. Why don’t most phones also regularly send a toast or show a notification that you headphones are running out of battery?

Well, see, there’s your problem. You handcrafted this code carefully, but didn’t think about today’s coding standards. That’s outdated code you use. Why use a simple print with variable substitutions, if you can instead just vibe print it by sending a rough description what your program tries to output to an LLM to account for such possible errors! /s

- Comment on Begun the kernel wars have 2 months ago:
Soooo, you’re telling me, that if I want to use a NVIDIA graphics card in Linux, I am not allowed to load its official driver’s kernel modules unless I either deactivate secure boot or generate my own signing key and load it into the UEFI, as otherwise this would make the kernel untrusted. But on windows every $random_game_publisher is allowed to run at kernel level without it being considered untrusted?

That’s why I didn’t close my account and still do a new turn of mass edits every 2-3 months. I have nothing deleted, just constantly overwritten. I get regularly banned from some subreddits after each wave, probably because some comments may trigger some sort of spam detection and edits alert the mods then.
- Comment on Anon tries running live USB Linux on his dad's computer 2 months ago:
Set bios to disable secure boot (warning check if you have bitlocker active before you do that) and install Linux w/o secure boot.
Otherwise, with secureboot: akmod will generate a new key for you and prepare it to be loaded into you UEFI. That key is password protected, which was the password you were asked for. Depending on your distro it might even get loaded automatically on reboot (just follow the menu and enter the password when asked) or you might need to initiate the load with mokutil and a reboot.
Afterwards, akmods will make sure your graphics driver is signed with the corresponding key that is now known and trusted by the UEFI and you can boot with secure boot enabled while still using self compiled kernel modules.
Problem is that kernel modules are seen as part of the kernel and everything must be signed with a key your UEFI trusts when using secure boot. And initially it’s Microsoft’s key, which you will not have access to when using custom kernels/kernel modules/… so you just create your own.
