I liked them the same, but I could name more episodes that I enjoyed and Voyager than DS9

I'll die on the hill that ds9 wasn't bad. It wasn't the best, lowest of the 4.. but if ds9 was the worst and it's still good than the other shows are great

And when it's not any of those cases then that person has a horrible pattern of behavior. I've learned this lesson way too hard.

He has one, he just doesn't sit in it

 

He won't sit on a couch next to me or by himself. He might hang out with me on my bed but 80% of the time he's on the floor.

Is he hot?

Is he sad?

Can I do something to help him?

He's 2 btw

Update: it was just anxiety, he's new in my house, not sure what his rules are.. he feels much more comfy now ♥️

First of all I just want to say that I completely agree with all of the technical things you talked about in his question but I think you kind of miss his question.

OP doesn't wanna be on SS7 (the thing that gives you your phone number), neither do I. I've just come to the conclusion that when it comes to infrastructure and paying for your goods SS7 is the only realistic option I have.

There is no distributed communication network anyone can just connect to. And the dream of leaving WiFi access points open for free (or for some kinda crypto-pay, e.g SkyNet) is just a dream, individuals have to invest in it and nobody wants to or take responsibility for it.

Here are some rules:

  1. Somebody* has to build the radios and computers that our phones connect to and has to build them all over the world (*doesn't have to be an individual, could be a company or government)
  2. You gotta pay to use it (whether it's with a billing account where they have your full name and house address, or crypto)
  3. It's gotta be the easiest option

If we can come with a solution that fits these rules we can do away with the SS7 cellular protocol and have a truly anonymous network.

Can we get one with impedance?

I have no fear of implementing anything I'm asked to in typescript go rust java c# f# or nix... They're all the same tool just kinda different in some places.

Genuinely why wouldn't this work? If a cluster of nanobots grey goo-s across your brain matter slowly over the course of 10 years, perfectly replacing each individual neuron with themselves how would you ever know?

*Like besides knowing that you agreed to the procedure

That's called termux.. or am I not getting the nature of termux

Nix and home-manager, those are the only 2 I have off the top of my head.

TF2.

I feel like I struggle to visually identify my opponents in every other videogame but TF2.

LGBT in Denver? (self.lgbtq_plus)
submitted 5 months ago by danhab99 to c/[email protected]
 

I'm thinking about moving to Denver and starting my adult life. I live near NYC but I just don't like it. NYC is dirty, stinky, and unjustifiably expensive. I see rents in Denver between 1400-2000 for a reasonable yet not posh apartment and I can afford it by myself.

TBH I could afford NYC with roommates too but it's everything that is just ridiculously expensive, NYC just feels unfair and nuyorkians take the unfairness out on everyone. I don't want to live my adult life feeling like I should just bite the bullet every time I wanna do something, I want to spend reasonably.

But I'm gay and I gotta have that gay energy in my life, Denver looks great, I'm just curious about what you guys think about Denver Colorado.

Thoughts? Opinions? Warnings?

 

I mean on a technical level. Are the devices that make up the infrastructure of the internet hardwired with IPv4? Is the firmware on these devices impossible to upgrade remotely?

If it's just a matter of software or firmware then adoption should only take like a year but clearly that isn't the case. So what specifically is stopping us?

 

I heard it a few years ago on SoundCloud but now I can't find it. I remember some details:

  1. It's mostly "Bad Thoughts" by bbno$
  2. It starts with the opening lyrics from ADDICTED from Hazbin Hotel
  3. George Carlin's "rat shit bat shit" chant makes an appearance every once in awhile
  4. There were some other sound bits that I don't have a clear memory of but I remember thinking they were unique

I know that these are like the craziest search params in the world but I'm so confident that this thing exists and is not an amalgamation of forgotten memories that resurfaced in fragments. It would be really cool if I could hear it again.

Please?

I feel like I'd use my file browser if it was easier to get around. ctrp-p like zoxide/fzf would be game changing.

Edit: sry tbh I wasn't clear.. I was asking for a GUI file browser, sry ranger covers my tui needs

I saw this tiktok where this guy was talking about how he'd get his hands on real social security numbers.. this was a clip from a whole story he told about some criminal shit, I was too distracted by my thoughts on how to fix the exploits he used.

Block chains and cryptographic signatures would solve basically every one of his exploits. But regardless of the myriad of reasons as to why we won't adopt cryptography into American laws and bureaucracy, imagine if we did do everything involving government and policy in a cryptographically secure environment.

Imagine if everyone who is born gets assigned a gpg secret key signed by the government and that is your government ID for everything from opening a bank account to paying your taxes to claiming benefits. IMPO I think this is a perfect solution (iif you ignore the human element).

So my question is why wouldn't it be perfect, and what kind of exploits could bad actors use in a cryptographic bureaucracy?

 

I was so confident that WhatsApp was backing itself up to Google ever since I got my new pixel but I just wasn't. Then yesterday I factory reset my phone to fix something else and I lost it all. Years worth of chats from so many times in my past just aren't there, all my texts with my mom and my family, group chats with old friends... I can't even look at the app anymore, I'll never use Whatsapp as much as I used to. I just don't feel right with this change. There's no way to get those chats back and now it doesn't feel like there's any point backing up WhatsApp now! I really wanna cry like this is so unfair!! And all I had to do was check Whatsapp before I did a factory reset.. the TINIEST THING I could have done and prevented this and I didn't fucking do it!!!!!!!

How do I get past this?

 

I know about software patents but what's the point when somebody can achieve the exact same functionality from the user's perspective using totally different code. Just seems like a waste on a patent lawyer.

 

I've watched all the YouTube videos and tiktoks about the spice and the guild navigators.. basically they're what exists instead of decision making computers.

But what do they actually do to operate the ship? Like they looked and saw some shit and now they have to do something about it.

Does the navigator have buttons and levers to configure the drive? Do they just speak words to some sort of helmsman about how to steer? Do they write out instructions? Is there some sort of telepathy or telekinesis the navigator does with the hardware?

Whenever I Google it I just find articles and videos about spice. What about SOP?
