Stuff like Reolink or Hikvision PoE cameras are local, but I still put them behind a firewall to block egress.

CrossFit is something that tickles my dopamine and also because it has given me enough general fitness I can take a break and do another activity without feeling like a moron. Which is one reason I didn’t get into activities when I was younger.

I’ve heard that martial arts are also sufficiently dopamine producing, which is good for us.

This is how I do it; my problem, however, tends to be the inverse where I forget to eat.

It’s hard to downsize, and it may not always be affordable. In my part of the world, because of a few reasons between markets and mortgages, a 350m2 house is worth 80-90% as much as a 175m2 house. If the house has been in the family for 30 years that makes it worse because the house isn’t “updated”, so it’s possible to halve the living space and end up with a tax bill for your trouble.

I use a lot of fossil fuels and t think they’re going to last longer than some government goals suggest, but I’m not certain that any new pipelines make sense, anywhere in the world. Fix up and maintain the existing ones until they can be mothballed. Maybe there’s an argument to be made that exiting fossil fuels leaves market for other countries, or something, but investing heavily in a technology that we know for certain is hurting humanity’s chances of survival doesn’t seem bright.

The more I learn about the super wealthy, the more I believe they’re intelligent people in the right time, in the right place, with the right financial backing, and it snowballed. When they leave their area of success (particularly for government) they encounter difficulties and just have no idea what to do with themselves.

I still haven’t figured out how to make a firewall rule with slaac on pfsense, with an ISP that hands out addresses at random. It’s my understanding’s slaac is the “right” way to do things, not dhcp and reservations.

Granted, it’s been a minute since I tried so I don’t remember the issues, but as I recall, when ipv6 prefix changes, device gets new IP (and it seems not just the prefix part. I can get the firewall to register IPs into DNS and use a dns based firewall rule, but unbound restarts and blows out its cache when a device joins the network. And there another part to it but it’s all gone fuzzy.

I wonder if the new right-click menu is also part of this “improvement”, because it too is slow. Actually, a lot of stuff that used to be really fast in Explorer is now not nearly as fast.

Right? They figured that out a decade or so later.

The US was in possession of the data but likely wanted the scientists to provide context in the same way they wanted the experience of the nazi rocket scientists. But lifetime immunity and a cover up is a horrible way to deal with the problem.

Interesting; it should work that way because the hash should check out fine. But I’ve never tried.

The straps have so many uses!

I should note that the anchors need serious structure, even more so if any swinging is planned.
