The bolts may not have a great season. I think they’ve made some upgrades on a tight budget. The old 4th line was found in an archaeological dig somewhere. But it could still be rough. But the contracts are all short. When the cap goes up, the Atlantic is facing a team with a lot of holes, a lot of money, and the know how and desire to win. I could see them making a first or second round again this season. Next season, no one is safe.

A lot of people don’t get that. You’re right.

It would be LARGE PRINT and it would work by me being able to read it without a magnifying glass.

Swag has to have its own docker network, and the containers proxies through swag have to be on that network. It can’t be bridge or host. Spaceinvaderone did a good video in setting this up and covers that part very clearly, I think. Maybe I misunderstood, but since you said they’re all on the same network, I assumed it was their original network.

I won’t argue the effectiveness of your method, but have you ever tried building a giant bonfire and then holding your bread in that direction from three states away?

I finished Small Mercies by Dennis Lehane, which was an enjoyable read. He’s a great writer and a great plotter. This book is very much in the vein of what he does, but he changed the perspective around and it works. It isn’t his best book, but it’s refreshing.

I started The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera. I’ve never read anything by him before but I’ve always heard about this book. Finally picked it up, and it’s very early going, but I love what I’ve read so far. I’m going to end up having more to say about this book.

I’m listening to The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova. I read it in hardcover sometime not that long after it came out, but it’s fun revisiting it. I remember the writing differently than it sounds.

Cynic says, “Yeah, better only their patients get hurt than the business, right? Wouldn’t want the billing system to be any worse.”

The cynic in me says they would have just let people die rather than not be able to bill them. But the realist in me knows that it took them a year to bill me for an ER visit, so it’s just that no one knows what anyone else is doing.

All that aside, it’s disturbing that they had no clue anything at all had gone wrong until 19 days after intrusion. We’re never going to get a real post-mortem on this one unless Morgan & Morgan drags it out of them in open court, but that’s pretty damn long. Usually these attacks are either very quickor very deliberate. In the latter case, often they gain access to one account, which may or may not be terribly over-privileged, and then move laterally, discovering other services, accounts, and level of access. It’s very tricky, very professional, and very smart. And sometimes it’s based on vulnerabilities that aren’t publicly known. In outer words, if that happens, you’re kinda fucked and this type of response is the best you can hope for.

There’s always more security you can implement, and there are always things you could have done better. I’m pissed about them giving up my info, but I work in this field and I know how damn hard it is to do better. I’m not cheerleading for them, but coulda been worse, I guess?

I’m sure we’re all shocked. Well, those of us who have been in a coma for the last thirty years, anyway.

Ah, so you haven’t been a sysadmin at all through the last ten years of watching fucking security updates get stuffed in a subscription. Unless you think hardware subscriptions are something new? Cause that’s also old hat to anyone who runs anything professionally. We know. This is just rent a center for gamers. The only way to win is not to play. But in this case, it’s SUPER easy not to play.

I might know that guy. He curled up on the couch all sweet-like and then reprogrammed my universal remote.

Agreed, but I like how frequently they find a way to communicate despite it.

Very minor typo in the Useful Plex Add-ons guide, which is excellent so far:

Introduciton

I’m about two thirds of the way through Since We Fell by Dennis Lehane. And I finished The Stupidest Angel by Christopher Moore today.

I don’t think Lehane ever really misses. His plots aren’t usually all that dense but the characters are deep and compelling. And the writing is way better than it seems like it should be. Every once in a while you I read a line and think, “Where did that come from, and how did it get here?” He’s a really talented writer.

Moore is not that. But he’s fun and entertaining. This book was not his best effort. But it was fine. If you like Moore, you’ll like this one we’ll enough.

No, mark it as spam. There are probably 800 addresses in the BCC if that lame phishing attempt. I see hundreds of these in quarantine for the email server I run. They’re all the same. No one did anything except find your email address, maybe, and send you this garbage.

If an article is a list, it’s garbage. If the headline of the listicle starts with a number, it should be banned from the Internet.

Jeep key fobs are a war crime in pockets. If you’re lazy, get a suspension clip. It’s a little clip that hooks onto the fob and the lip of your pocket. It’s better than having that massive Rick sitting in the bottom of your pocket.

If you’re motivated, Google jeep key fob mods. There are lots of easy and difficult ways to improve on what can only be described as asshole design.

I genuinely thought he was unemployable in the NHL. Good for him. And as always, fuck Philly, and fuck all the legions of dumbass fans who thought what they did to Boucher’s 1-3-1 was legitimate. All it showed was that they were too slow and too stupid to play the game.

Man, that shit gets me heated still. I should not still be pissed about morons thinking stupid things.

The point is your gained wisdom through experience. That’s what the old people always tried to tell us.

Are you going to solve any of those problems? No. Are you going to be able to join some organization or movement that solves them? Probably no. Will you be able to affect any change that the world will take notice of? Probably not.

But that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be a part of it. Not everything that has value makes meaningful changes on the world. There was a French artist, Marcel Duchamps, who once exhibited a urinal. This was clearly not an attempt to move art in any direction, or change public perception, he was kinda just being an asshole. But it had that effect anyway. People still get pissy about it, in the form of, “Is it art?” conversations. Is it? Doesn’t matter. It was a low effort one-off idea that has lasted for decades.

Life isn’t actually a race to see how much you can achieve. And if it was that, then it wouldn’t be measured by money. It wouldn’t be measured by “legacy,” the way we use that word for rich people and sports stars. If it really was a contest, then it would be based on how much good you can manage in the face of constant depressive onslaught.

The world has never seemed like it has a point to most people. But they try their best, and they make meaningful impact on the lives of others, often without intention or even knowledge of having done so .

One of my most influential people has no idea that he did anything. He’s around somewhere, although I haven’t seen him for 20 years. All he did was treat me like a person when I was a dumb teenager (not to say all teenagers are dumb, but I was). It really wasn’t much. But I hadn’t been treated that way before, so to me it’s influential because it was something he did that he didn’t have to do.

That guy is not going to be lying on his deathbed thinking, “At least I was a good influence on scared of planes.” For all I know, he doesn’t remember me. Doesn’t matter. He spread some good into the world. That’s your job. That’s your point.

Just be a better you tomorrow than you are today, as many days as you can manage. Know that no one does that every day. And you’ll live a meaningful life that maybe has influence. Your legacy is you.

The information I would expect in this post is glossed over here:

Investors can choose to keep company stock in their own name using the Direct Registration System - which provides multiple benefits and safeties not available with other methods of holding.

Provide some of that info, please. Otherwise this is just an ad.
