night zodiac
#

Nice. I honestly will probably get the 12 year of Redbreast next time. I think I like it a bit more than the 15

tidal bronze
#

@forest edge definitely it's worth spending a day on set.

forest edge
#

as long as it's not the Notebook set, sure lol

tidal bronze
#

You would've loved working with seal team for the movie. Mind blowing.

night zodiac
#

The Notebook was fucking dope

forest edge
#

or 50 shades of grey.. you do that one too? lol

tidal bronze
#

Nopes. LMAO.

#

You like huh

forest edge
#

I like the knock off, 50 shades of black or whatever it's called

tidal bronze
#

Although I did the entire network for vivid pictures early 2000's lmao.

"we have some shades"

rare condor

@hushed basalt Come to Victoria I'll give you some, you'll never want to leave afterwards... Nor can you.

I'd have to pay $2500 to come back too

#

For 2 weeks hotel in Perty

tidal bronze
#

@forest edge you should do a studio tour at vivid pictures. πŸ˜‚

#

You will never be the same.

forest edge
#

I always thought that would be a little boring, just looking at back drop sections and props isn't it? lol

tidal bronze
#

Oh boy. Don't get me started.

forest edge
#

I mean seeing some props would be alright lol

tidal bronze
#

Editing room is simply mayhem.

forest edge
#

I bet it is

#

lol

tidal bronze
#

But all in all everything is an experience

forest edge
#

millions upon millions in editing pc's with those nvidia titans and such

tidal bronze
#

You should see the editors faces. LMAO.

forest edge
#

no soul?

#

lol

tidal bronze
#

Simply epic shit man.

forest edge
#

I don't want to look at people who had thier soul ripped from them from long hours of work lol

tidal bronze
#

Cracks me up to date.

tidal bronze
#

Exactly

#

At the same time you tend to think about people on the other end that think shit is cool.

forest edge
#

messed up behind everything awesome is something not awesome at all lol

tidal bronze
#

Yes sir.

#

Great to see both sides of the story 1st hand.

#

Hand == no pun intended

forest edge
#

one of the documentaries I watched about people moving there in hopes of becoming movie stars and end up doing shit work struggling to make ends meet week by week was sad as hell

tidal bronze
#

That's most of entertainment industry. But if and when you hit, you are set.

forest edge
#

well some turned to porn lol

tidal bronze
#

Porn is not bad if you are the selcted few.

forest edge
#

now visiting a porn set.. that might be interesting..

tidal bronze
#

Not a problem.

#

Lol.

forest edge

But trust me you don't want to.

forest edge

i can already sense @scenic radish ears perking

scenic radish
tidal bronze
#

Imagination is best when it comes to that.

night zodiac
#

there is an interview on Your Mom's House where they interview a guy that visited gangbang sets. you should listen to those stories

scenic radish
#

No thanks

tidal bronze
#

Porn star makes close to 1700 / 40 minutes

forest edge
#

@tidal bronze one of those things when once you see the behind the scenes you can't unsee the behind the scenes and ruins everything? lol

tidal bronze
#

Yep. I suggest not to.

forest edge
#

that sucks

tidal bronze
#

It's ok when you are 78 years not before that.

forest edge
#

I had kind of hoped some of it was like that movie with mark walburg as dirk diggler lol

I made the mistake and now πŸ™„

night zodiac
#

Steven Randolph from Big Brother magazine

#

he keeps your attention very well

tidal bronze
#

Somethings you just can't unsee

forest edge
#

and now you had to remove your eyeballs and replace them with prosthetics?

#

@scenic radish you say, No Thanks" but we know what inspired Grand Sauce.

tidal bronze
#

LMAO

#

Grand sauce

#

Sounds like something that Ron Jeremy would make.

forest edge
#

lol

tidal bronze
#

@night zodiac when you get a chance try yamasaki

night zodiac
#

what is that

#

whiskey

#

I'll see if they have it at my store

tidal bronze
#

Unlikely mostly online. But it's worth it. Voted 3 or 4 years in a row for best single malt.

night zodiac
#

where do you order from

tidal bronze
#

I get from my local total wine but damn waiting list most of the time or raffle.

night zodiac
#

12 year or normal single malt?

tidal bronze
#

12 year.

night zodiac
#

let me see if I can find it

tidal bronze
#

If you can score 18 then WIN

night zodiac
#

that sounds expensive

#

12 years are a lot cheaper than 18 years, lol

tidal bronze
#

Yes.

night zodiac
#

yeah, I just looked it up. $120 vs $900, lol

#

ordering the 12 year

#

don't tell Jill

#

nvm

#

they won't ship to me

tidal bronze
#

You won't regret it. Get whiskey cubes as well. Last thing you want is adding water with ice cubes to that n

night zodiac
#

welp, nobody will ship to me

night zodiac
#

hrmm. next time I visit my girl's parents I'll have to order a few bottles to there, give away some as gifts and drink 1

#

they should ship to that state

tidal bronze
#

That's a bummer

night zodiac
#

yeah, for some reason Illinois is blocked but I have wine delivered

tidal bronze
#

Same to Cali from most online stores. I have no idea why.

night zodiac
#

I'll just order some as gifts the next time I visit her parents. I have been trying to think of a gift anyways

tidal bronze
#

This will make a great gift for sure.

night zodiac
#

yeah, one for her father and one for her brother.

#

her brother is the one that showed me redbreast

#

not really showed me. offered me a glass and I was like yum

#

and bought some

#

actually my girl got it for my bday

#

now I need a gift for the girls :/

#

quad, you like tequila at all? my parents got me some tequila that tastes wild

tidal bronze
#

Sorry not a tequila fan. Wife is all over it. Patron would be it.

night zodiac
#

haha, this doesn't taste like anything I've ever had tequila wise

#

it tastes like flowers

tidal bronze
#

So many variations.

night zodiac
#

DAMN

#

I registered on a website thinking it was going to let me buy the whiskey but it waited to the very end to tell me nope

tidal bronze
#

Lol. Tequila, best would be costco.

#

Costco now got Kirkland single malt which undoubtedly is mcallan

night zodiac
#

yeah, none of those around here

#

I found a place within an hour that I might be able to get

#

I'll call them

#

"Discount Liquor Of Chatham" lol

tidal bronze
#

No costco ?

night zodiac
#

I fucking wish man

#

I had them in vegas

#

I want some pizza

Costco bourbon is pretty good to btw

I need to find a reshipper of liquor

there must be a percentage limit for my state, I know my girl gets wine

#

@scenic radish Favorite integration?

scenic radish
#

That's a good question actually

#

Well, automation is my favorite integration but besides that...

#

Oh. HomeKit Controller for sure

ashen kayak
#

well a controller is almost a hub. IMO

scenic radish
#

That integration allows you to connect HomeKit devices to home assistant, and since HomeKit is a local protocol, those devices are controlled locally

#

For instance, the ecobee integration is cloud based (and ecobee's API is terrible), but the thermostat supports HomeKit, so I have it connected via HomeKit controller

ashen kayak
#

K, semantics, just curious what made you really get deep in automation. I realized Wyze as a platform sucked and dove into HA

scenic radish
#

I wanted my lights to turn on when I disarm my alarm at night. IFTTT was slow and unreliable, so I moved to Tasker on my phone which triggered the lights to turn on when the "alarm disarmed" notification came in. That worked better but was still clunky

Nice! I've been using my Smatthings hub to track a lot. I got turned on by knowing if my garage door was open or not.

Lol. I love those sawstop things then I think what did that saw cost because it has that feature and what does it cost to replace... cause an arm and a leg is a lot more than a finger tip

midnight adder
#

But what happens if they actually wanted to use the saw to cut your sausage?

#

(Not that sausage...)

forest edge
#

@clear ferry those also destroy the table saw not just the blade. in fact they make a whole replacement system that has to be bought for big bucks every time

#

and that would be fine if they were 100% accurate in detecting only fingers/flesh but any moisture at all will set it off

#

I read sawing on humid days can set it off

clear ferry

We have the technology to make it so!

@clear ferry Nah. The middle blade just slips past the outer two knocking the teeth off. They're normally offset because the teeth are wider than the disks.

Got my own handy PS scripts for most of the clean up.

They have hidden so many of the Library, AppData, Application Data, Program Data, etc folders and locked them under SYSTEM/TrustedInstaller

And then made it impossible to even bypass

WSL2 requires Pro yeah

so gotta make a change anyway

mild tapir

And it now requires Windows Hypervisor Toolkit

  • SMB Server

  • some other junk
#

And it eats up like 20% of a 16 Core CPU

which is stupid

I also found it had force formatted my 4k block drive back to 512e

So I lose perf there

last plaza
#

Basically a crap shoot.

And they wonder why everyones leaving their ecosystem

#

I could teach how to Linux faster than how to Windows to a 0 knowledge avg consumer at this point

Ah yeah heres a good one

Some GPO's no longer apply cuz Windows Defender sees it as tampering

And it locks it all out

#

Whatever you do, dont reboot

lol wut?

mild tapir
#

It wont reboot

#

Yup, anything that touches security registries or core files (GPO) is seen as tampering

even if its its own toolkit

And top it all off

#

They shouldn’t have hired Mark Russinovich. He is better off developing tools that gives control at low level. Now he became one of them.

rare condor
#

they wonder why everyone's leaving their ecosystem? but they are not, windows is as dominant as ever on desktop . and ms doesn't care in server what os you run as long as you use their services. they are very different to ms of 90's

mild tapir
#

Containers.

last plaza
#

Also, most consumers don’t know shit. They are okay with whatever the crap they get.

mild tapir
#

Windows does not scale and next-gen platforms scale. You cannot live on consumers alone

#

They are pulling the EEE stuff again with FOSS software already

rare condor
#

I don't want to argue the point as its 1am but simply not true.

#

MS under Balmer saw office and windows as core to buiness

#

those days are gone

#

MS pushes cloud and services

#

that is the market

mild tapir
#

I know they push cloud. I worked in a few of their DC's

#

Wanna see a hot mess?

rare condor
#

The EEE notion is a relic of the past, a lot of devs working at MS are FOSS users and culture is pushing to integration not EEE

rare condor
#

Linux Unplugged Episode 2 week ago goes into why EEE notion is bs, my opinion closely aligns to this

weeks before

And I can keep on going. This whole year has been very shady

Nothing because I worked too closely and seen it in person

#

For far too long too

#

If anything, they simplified

hearty crow
#

lets be honest, appget was nothing special anyways. Any halfway decent powershell developer could replicate its functionality in a day. Spend another few days polishing it up and bam. To be honest, powershellget and nuget have sucked since inception, im kind of surprised it took this long for MS to realize the possibilities of platforms like github

mild tapir
#

"Milk all the cash cows"

#

It really wasnt anything special

#

the original dev said so himself

rare condor
#

If you believe change is not feasible its futile for me to discuss

mild tapir

but they brought him in for some sort of talk/interview

ghosted him

then released his works

Remove all the "what is what" on top of all of this

@wet pilot That's acceptable

mild tapir

Its literally control

modern kernel so should have fewer issues with the AMD 4700U

Power = Control

If you have power you can control

Its $

seems like ubuntu can out-perform fedora but might have some compatibility gotchas unless i manually upgrade the kernel

Yeah ubuntu's repo is kinda... wonk

wet pilot
#

yeah, being downstream of deb isn't always the greatest for them

rare condor
#

@wet pilot meh I have had equal issues on Fedora as Ubuntu

fedora typically has a more recent kernel

rare condor
#

I set it up with G-drive

mild tapir
#

Now thats something I can really get behind

rare condor
#

But not using it with ssh, find ssh agents too annoying

mild tapir
#

pam_yubico

#

Itll use the OTP

rare condor
#

It won't work without internet right?

mild tapir
#

I think U2F now works over SSH too. But yes it uses OTP Validation servers

#

howeverrrrrrrr

rare condor
#

That's a big issue as internet is not reliable in Aus and I often don't have internet when SSH'ing

mild tapir
#

Its open source validation server

#

if you are big into self-host

#

And yess, you can use both your own and yubico's

mild tapir
#

And to top it off

#

PGP key based SSH Login

#

Since you can store your PGP keys on the key

#

3 choices, have yer pick

rare condor
#

Real 2FA is no longer present if you place the private key on the hardware security key because it is then responsible for both the OTP and private key component. thoughts?

mild tapir
#

Sure if you use OTP + SSH Key

#

You could do Pass/User + OTP

#

or Pass/User + SSH Key

#

And not only that

#

You have to have a pin code to access the key

rare condor
#

Have you tried the new U2F in Openssh8.2

mild tapir
#

Once

#

oh yeah the key can have a pass too

#

So there is that

rare condor
#

All my Ubuntu 20.04 Guests support it so I could use it

#

It does not make sense to me to go back in time and migrate away from native U2F OpenSSH authentication unless you cannot upgrade your OpenSSH binaries. The community is moving away from SSH gpg-agent authentication and so should you.

mild tapir
#

Yup

#

Agreed

#

as raw security goes, U2F is more secure as a protocol/encryption metod

rare condor
#

I might wait until OpenSSH 8.2 is included in debian 11 stable and start using it

mild tapir
#

You can do both

rare condor
#

One downside is my Yubikey only supports ecdsa-sk key-pairs not ed25519-sk . So NSA can look at my linux servers πŸ™ƒ

mild tapir
#

i also use the GPG/PGP for Git commits

#

and decrypting my pc

One thing though, as the twitter hack showed today, if the service itself isn't secure 2FA does sh*t all

we have our power at 240ac on our lines but we do it odd. we do an offset above and below neutral so if we want a 120, we do 1 phase and a neutral. if we want 240, we get 2 phases and don't need the neutral

yeah, US has 2 phase to the house and we can choose with a single breaker or a double breaker to get 2 phase

so you only need one phase a a neutral for our 120v walls

see "Janky power systems" comment

rare condor

  1. People short appliance, appliance doesn't work, they throw away perfectly functional toasters.

  2. Fuse blows, penny, paper clip or other random metal shoved in, fire starts.

  3. Person tries to replace doesn't reinstall cover and dies from holding outlet when inserting

In all cases, people are idiots, but this should be accounted for

It's also much cheaper to wire with 14 gauge over 10 gauge for 120/230*V 15A (turns out our 240 and 220 is legacy.)

wet pilot
#

woo laptop arrived

night zodiac
#

hell yeah

wet pilot
#

booted into windows long enough to update the bios and installing Fedora 32 now

night zodiac
#

was it one of those bios updaters that locks errything up while it updates

#

where you can hear your cpu cycles through your headset for some reason, lol

wet pilot
#

nah, was pretty painless

night zodiac
#

nice

wet pilot
#

they expose their firmware out as a device to windows and windows update can apparently do it

night zodiac
#

that sounds horrifying

#

that is probably how mine is done as well, lol

#

I have no idea

wet pilot
#

eh, MSI files and windows update as a repository/mirror wouldn't be too terrible

#

as long as M$ isn't writing the firmware everything is probably ok πŸ˜›

mild tapir
#

@wet pilot Most likely its exposed in registry as the raw tables

#

which I have NO CLUE as to why Windows and OEM's do it that way

wet pilot
#

Β―_(ツ)_/Β―

#

doesn't matter, its gone now

mild tapir
#

As quickly as it came

#

it left

#

For the better

wet pilot
#

already running dnf update

#

touch screen worked ootb which is nice

mild tapir
#

I found 13 more replication directories for AppX Caches

#

The worst part about this is that the SHA-512 matches

#

so its literally duplications

night zodiac
#

Are you not going to use any apps from the store?

mild tapir
#

So I can have it spew itself 21 times across the filesystem? Ill use LTSC if I am gonna windows

#

Right now I am just digging around the 20H2 update

night zodiac
#

I love 20H2, lol

#

and my apps

mild tapir
#

I got some major pain points with it

night zodiac
#

it just makes my life easier for work. I like to play games so I am in windows a lot and now I can just run all my stuff with wsl2 without issues.

#

I don't like dual booting

#

my games need windows

Yeah, you really need that 10G SFP+ in your home lab πŸ˜›

#

Yes!

I already have 10gig run throughout the house

#

Telemetry is 3 fold originally, GPO's dont function if it is security based as Defender thinks its tampering... so it fights its own toolkit, StartMenu is immutable as in you cannot fully modify it (some UWA Applications are perm stuck on there), Pinning Shortcuts to Taskbar is no more, There is many Directories that are locked out from you that hold various files of concern, There is a folder that says "Its against Microsoft policy to modify", WSL requires SMB + 2 new dependencies that cause hella drain on resources, Some settings dirs for apps is inaccessible, there is scripts set to reset some of your settings on windows update, telemetry index xml hidden right in the middle of a language file, CMI causes BSOD's with some NVIDIA and AMD Drivers

night zodiac
#

and yet none of those affect me, lol

mild tapir
#

I am of the "If it works for you then go for it" group but man this is the first time I reallllllllllllllly had an itch with Windows

night zodiac
#

you can pin shortcuts to taskbar np btw

mild tapir
#

It resets

night zodiac
#

maybe you messed with something?

mild tapir
#

After 3 restarts no less

night zodiac
#

mine stays

#

I am playing with a brand new install

unreal orbit
#

People running 10g at home, meanwhile I'm running my media server with the files on an external usb 5400rpm hard drive

night zodiac
#

I mean that's probably all you need for media :p

#

metadata might be mean to you

#

I like my Ubiquiti gear

night zodiac
#

I have an edge router, love it

unreal orbit
#

Transferring files gives me time to read a book for a while πŸ™‚

night zodiac
#

and ubiq AP

mild tapir
#

I am using a UniFi Switch Leaf, Next-Gen Gateway, 8x WiFi 6 In Wall AP's, 1x UniFi 6 Switch 24, 1x AP WiFi 6, Cloud Key Gen 2 and Custom Firmware

night zodiac
#

I have the unifi controller in a docker container on a random hp box my dad gave me from work

mild tapir
#

Custom Firmware because Ubiquiti cannot into software, only hardware

#

I told myself I was going to make the blinky lights visible 5 months ago

#

flip the router/patch panel

#

I had it like that before and forgot why I switched it

mild tapir
#

Broken IGMP Proxy, >2 Switches down Multicast, IPv6 is shot, mDNS crashes under more than 60 clients, DHCP Options for second modifiers to Time wont work, and their IPTables rules are really basic and somewhat insecure when UPnP is on

#

It was an easy fix tho

#

"The CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system"
Well thanks Windows 10. Thats one way to say "no modify"

#

funny part is im debating upgrading my core to 40gbps

clear ferry
#

40g core, what is this? 2014?

unreal orbit
#

I wish

Mostly these days we do 100g spine and leaf and 40g access

Damn "buzzword" hell

#

my post lady just left a note on my door saying they couldn't reach me and left

#

little do they know the package has a motion tracker so I can catch her sneaky ass in the future

#

Didn't knock or anything, I heard her device go "beep" and she dipped

clear ferry
#

Like the feckers that tried to deliver a package to my house with a lorry, and there was roadwork so they couldn't pass up my street, just marked me as not home instead of calling me while I was waiting at home

#

I called their managers and yelled

night zodiac
#

I paid for express delivery and they are trying to make me go get it

#

yeah right. she said they will send her back when she gets back

#

I'm not going to pay $30 in shipping to have to go get it, lol

clear ferry
#

I ended up picking it up myself, tagging the local delivery company on twitter and Google reviews as dishonest bastards and gave them 1 star in all review pages I could

#

And sent formal complaints to the parent shipping company

night zodiac
#

UPS dropped my package off at a local business one day because they have a business relation with them

#

I was like wtf is this shit

#

another no-knocker

clear ferry
#

I've had shipping companies leave racks with $500k worth of computer equipment in the rain outside a door without telling it was delivered

night zodiac
#

oh no

wet pilot
#

boo microphone no worky and i'm not finding anything useful to deal with it

clear ferry
#

Thankfully thick cardboard, so I've saved everything

#

@wet pilot yell into a speaker

night zodiac
#

PULSE AUDIO

#

lol

#

I hate that shit

wet pilot
#

as far as i can tell the hw is straight up not detected

night zodiac
#

she came back and did a tiny bullshit knock on my screen door

#

not even my real door

#

it sounded like the compressor in my fridge moving shit around

#

that lil knock noise a fridge will make

#

it wasn't my motion sensors

unreal orbit
#

Oh wow, you can click on emotes now to get the server they came from

#

(if it's a public server)
