Does this count as a shitpost? I mean it’s about a piece of shit, but I’m not sure it’s the same thing.

I read a long time ago to do 1 spritz of cologne to the middle of the chest, ideally right after showering. I think the body heat and it usually being covered up by clothing helps with the overall scent. Can’t remember the details.
Also, mom told me when I was a teen, “The only person who should be able to smell your cologne is the person hugging you.” That’s always been my guide.

To be fair, if you start regularly showering and keep up with the same amount of cologne, the cologne will become the problem. As it is, the cologne is a problem, along with at least one or two other more serious problems.

I got curious and asked the Sky Brain about this. It got a little “Clinton-esque.”

O don’t think I’ve ever had to sign into Teams (PR Outlook, for that matter) in my desktop. Mobile, I have to after changing my password. I assumed all the MS apps signed me in with my domain login on my laptop. On weird issue I have is things like SharePoint and Dynamics 365 asking me to sign in again after its already brought up the site, and clicking the button to do it just brings a blank pop-up that immediately disappears and I’m logged “for real” I guess.

Interesting times when (at least) half of all political reporting in the US is simply investigating/reporting what most people already know/assume. Not arguing against its necessity, receipts are important if any of this stuff ever goes in front of judges.

If you’re not going the VPS route it’s even easier. Pangolin handles the wireguard tunnel for you with a docket container running newt. Very straightforward.
My goals have been:
- Avoid opening ports on my home network.
- Don’t require people using my services to join my Tailnet (or some other VPN).
- Require 2FA/passkeys (via Authentik for the moment) on anything that’s publicly accessible.
There’s plenty of YT stuff out there for Pangolin, but I haven’t seen a lot for their cloud service. Personally, I prefer it to self-hosting it. Similar to tailscale, the free tier meets my needs, and their security team is (hopefully) more competent and better staffed than… me.
Of course, you get what you pay for, but I see this as a similar position as Tailscale & Cloudflare. With my free account, I’m piggy-backing off the security infrastructure of their enterprise offerings. Obviously I don’t get all the fine-grained controls of those tiers, but like the other two companies, they have a reputation to uphold, and from that perspective a breech is a breech. Even if it only affects free tier users, it makes them look bad.

A long time ago I was doom scrolling Facebook, and I came across an ad for NFL-branded triptych art. This particular ad was in a master bedroom, and over the bed was hung the Carolina Panthers logo with their slogan “Keep Pounding!”
I immediately saved it because of course I did, and now I can’t find it. Still makes me laugh, though.

Says a lot about the general consensus about a country that none of your neighboring countries think you could be the source of their rise in an STD. Some countries fuck. Some don’t.

My old hotmail gets all that stuff. Awhile back they added some stuff to automatically keep it clean-ish, mainly the sweep feature. Plus I have addy.io that forwards a bunch of stuff to it.
