I just liked the vibe and name of Kbin. It reminded me of Kerbin, the home planet in Kerbal Space Program.

I later learned it might be the Polish word for magazine. The “subreddits” here are called magazines, but it could also mean like gun magazine. The latter of which I don’t really care for (especially as a US user), but in the end, I don’t really gaf. It’s just a chill place to hang out.

Maybe it’ll help as long as the fine is some % of their net income. Sweden does this, speeding tickets are a % of your income instead of a fixed fine, so someone with $10MM will still feel the burn.

I lost my coat somewhere along the way

This reminds me of a friend after a long night out. I let them borrow my (thankfully cheap) coat because it was cold out, and we hopped on a bus to get home. I look over and the coat was gone. Friend had no clue what happened. We were both super tired and out of it but yeah it just disappeared on the journey lol.

Either way, make sure you have backups (3-2-1 backups if possible) before swapping the hardware. If it fails to boot and there is some change to the drive contents during boot, putting it back in the original system isn’t guaranteed to work.

My friend adds water instead of milk… I think he’s a cereal killer

I would like to change the title from “a new trend in tipping” to a “a new trend in being an asshole”.

What do you mean interception is at a different layer? You can capture at any layer as long as the payload isn’t encrypted, and if it is, you still get layers 1 through 4 (Physical, Link, Network, and Transport).

Wanna hear a UDP joke?

Nevermind, you wouldn’t get it.

You’d have to be somewhere in the route from A to B to intercept it. But TCP is no different in that regard.

TCP is connection based so both sides need to agree to connect before data is exchanged. UDP is connectionless, so it will send data from A to B (and vice versa) regardless of if the other side is available.

Do you ever season directly into a hot pan or boiling water? The steam gets into the container and causes clumping.

Solution: season into your hand first, then add to the dish.

I wish I had gotten into Usenet back in the day. I feel like I missed out on a big part of the early internet.

The latency is measured in hours

To be fair though, I’ve never heard of a modern phone battery swelling. That’s something that will happen years after it’s EOL, and at that point the company is no longer obligated to supply a replacement (as ideal as that would be).

An integrated battery allows the company to minimize the size and design of the phone. It’s not 100% greed and planned obsolescence, though its virtually guaranteed those are components of the design decision.

I want replaceable batteries too. But I want them to be standard so I don’t need 3 chargers for each company’s phone. And I want them to be sleek like modern phones so they fit in my hand and pocket like I’m familiar with.

I miss custom ROMs. I haven’t messed with them since 4.4 KitKat.

Yep! Watch out for headcrabs!

Replacing “comment” with “artwork” kind of helps illustrate it. If we all made tons of artwork for Reddit, then they started gating it behind a paywall and while painters and all the behind-the-scenes painting staff earned nothing – well that’s kinda where we are today.

Use crowbar to save planet.
