New way to bully unlocked: join as spectator and throw slurs to force game closure. In reality, the game needs paused, and to forcably eject bad actors, then resume game.

Sure, theft is theft. But when your corporate policies put weeks/months for an upgrade, and you can do it in 3 hours by reallocating to the same business (no theft), that's just using broken business practices to people's adv

Xen prevents modifying ACPI data. It also passes obvious "Xen emulated drive", and similar for all hardware interfaces. Passes CPUID. Can't stop any of this with Qubes/Xen. But is trivial with Proxmox/KVM. Honestly,

I dumped it after realizing Xen does its damndest in preventing you from hiding VM attributes from Guest OSes. Proxmox uses KVM, and is easy to configure a VM to make the guest think it's on bare metal. In the proprietary software spac

And Jellyfin for the server. And whatever leftover storage you have. And PIA or Proton for a port forwardable VPN. And https://github.com/halcyon-video/halcyon-video for that real Blockbuster experience.

This whole story you tell is the same for lots of places. It's the tell of a failing state who cannot provide for their people. Hard/bad/no jobs? People will steal. And the thefts may cost $3000 to replace, but $300 in theft

So what makes raw fish safe is that the fish is froze at a temp for a period of time. Its different depending on temp and duration. But the cold kills the parasites. Its why "sashimi grade fish" is safe.

Yep absolutely works as well. Was just on my phone and gave an example. But arduino = 5v logic, and esp = 3.3v logic. Also ESP does have a lot higher base load than a atmega chip. You can do tricks to get those down to microwatts.

I think all this goes to the joke/not-a-joke about "you aren't a real hacker until you have a CVE to your name". Its also a form of forced social proof.
