Checkmate, consumer.

Yes, until you install an update. Then it’s best practice to run it again.

If it is an intel based machine, it’s no really much different than any other machine. The only difference would be in how you get to the boot menu. That’s about it.

Kipf then “infiltrated” other states’ death registry systems using credentials stolen from other people to infiltrate private businesses, government and corporate networks (allegedly the booking systems of a number of hotel chains), and then tried to sell access to the networks to potential customers online.

I bet you thought you were so woke for this.

Because my new intel integrated graphics cause Wayland to run like a slideshow.

Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.

A phrase that would bounce around when I was in grad school.

It’s correlational, not causal. There isn’t going to be a definitive source on this

The prices went back down right after the federal government announced a price fixing investigation and a bunch of news coverage came out about how their claims were bogus.

Great article, thanks for sharing.

Yeah I know. Never said different.

I expect nothing less from someone whose profile picture is an anime child smelling feet.

Nah, above is photographic proof of where wind comes from.

It’s definitely a crutch for me. I’ve used exercise several times recently to give myself an attitude adjustment.

There’s someone at my work who really needs to see this…

Check out gear by GL.iNet. They’re pretty cheap, albeit low specced, but they come with OpenWRT flavor preinstalled. They’re an unbelievable value proposition and I’ve been running mine with no noticeable issues since September. For you I would look at something like their GL-AX1800. Poke around on their store, but that AX1800 is just shy of $100 in the US.

I got mine specifically because of my home lab set up and them being recommended by my work’s cybersec manager.

We have also seen the budget range improve in quality and affordability. There will always be cheap junk TVs and overly expensive TVs, but that midrange, where most people buy, has become rock solid. There just isn’t much region to upgrade at the moment.

I can’t believe just how called out by this post I feel. There are lots of good tips and recommendations throughout this thread, but this one in particular seems to sum up not only my behaviors that I described above, but with a lot of oddities in how I do things. In particular, these are some notable items you mentioned that I do on a regular basis:

• “…the reason I (for example) restart video games instead of playing to the end is because my stress response is messed up, and my solution to a fun game going sour is to “reboot” and seek a redo (just like how I left home, or quit some jobs to get away from stressful people!).”
• “Set up entire websites and message forums just to get away from IRL stuff that sucked.”
• “You sound like you’re in tech, maybe a programmer…”
• “Things turn black and white–either everything is absolutely 100% perfect, or you’ve failed and you’re going to burn in hell with all the other failures!”

I really appreciate this comment. It’s one of the few that are really emphasizing that these are habits that seem more design, subconsciously, to pull me away from true feelings. Some feelings I tend to experience in connection with these episodes lack of purpose, imposter syndrome, hurt, etc. I’ve been responding to commenters throughout that I think therapy and mindfulness of these behaviors is my most logical next steps, but I’m really appreciative of the recommendations and personal experiences you’ve shared with us. It definitely makes me feel like I’m not alone in this world.

A few of my coworkers swear by it but I’ve never given it much attention. I’m going to download it this morning and play around with it - see what all the hype is about.
