Then all the additional scammers will receive more shock pics. Hell, I'd even try to fish their pii and do all kinds of evil things with it. All it takes is for them to reveal their real phone number (as many text scammers do) or a website with whois information.

It won't be long now before all Microsoft products need a monthly fee. Now people will actually have to switch to Linux due to cost instead of switching to Linux just because they want to.

I swear to fuck, in 2030 we're going to be spinning our own homebrew crts. 640x480 is better than ads.

To the average person, putting that much thought and effort into it is for elite hackers only. I know a guy that does cybersecurity and still has smart everything in his house.

Is there a list of banks that do this? Some don't ban root users. Or at least some don't do as good a job as others at detecting it. Magisk has at least some kind of root hiding stuff in it.

I want to rent one of those airport mall storefronts and sell parachutes to 737 max customers.

Instead of a regular backpack can I just bring a parachute as my carryon?

I am trying to use wifi for "everything". I know it's bad but there is no honest to goodness way I can get ethernet to anything except the router and modem. It's complicated. Even a 60hz ac to ethernet wall plug transceiver has to go through enough breakers and stuff it's not worth trying.

I forgot which exact router I have but it's basically the highest end Cisco home router that works with dd wrt. It usually costs $300 on amazon. My internet connection is dsl but I'm not trying to get higher internet speeds, just higher lan speeds.

If my low effort network setup only yields me a maximum of 7mbytes/sec I'm fine with it I just want to be able to get more than 1 meg per second on the one system that needs it the most.

Is jellyfin good? Several years ago I wrote a very basic php search system and then made another php script to generate a clickable list of every video file in a directory. These 2 put together makes a better than nothing media server that I can use with confidence knowing it's probably really secure and not sending any data to anyone on the internet.

My setups lan transfer speed is slow all the time for reasons beyond my understanding so I have to find a way to fix that first before I can think about changing my media server software anyway. My 1mb/s download/1.2mb/s upload speed on my server and 4-7mb/s for each other pc is good enough to watch some stuff but it really sucks that after overhead and performance losses, that's all that's left of my 400mbits/sec wifi connection. I barely even use it and don't have any non Linux pcs on my network so it's not like it's slow due to actual traffic. Router and wifi card manufacturers are scamming us all. Divide any advertizered wireless network speed by 64 and that's the maximum you can expect in my experience.

Shrinkflation came for the imperial system, I'm afraid. 10 inches is the new metric foot.

My cats are friends with the opossums and skunks. Fuck the coons though they're jackasses.
