I hope there are security tapes.

The best one being “Damn, this looks stupid”.

I think there’s a time between “This thing is possible I guess” and “you’re already fucked” that I’d like to hear about things.

And ebaum’s world. And rotten. And something awful.

I never put that together with wardriving but that’s exactly what it is. Thank you for that.

Unrelated story: ~20 years ago I was in the military and broke as hell. I went wardriving in my neighborhood looking for open wifi and found a business not too far away that had it. So I built an antenna out of a coffee can, mounted it up just outside my window, and got free wifi for months.

There’s another reply further down that goes into specifics. I ain’t the one because I didn’t come with receipts and I’m just a drunk.

I wish I could go back in time to warn myself not to read this. The memory of receiving those (and other awful shit) is indelibly marked in my brain.

I do not know how true it is, but I’ve heard that some of them will create a mesh network if your neighbor has the same brand and it’s connected to the internet.

I’ve always meant to look into it but I have big dumb TVs that work for now.

It does. There are some upsides, though. One bonus is that, at least in some small ways, some of these shitbag companies that have acted terribly in the past are letting up because we have options. We don’t have to rely on a couple of big studios for every game we play. So EA has backed off of their terrible launcher.

I also think it’s kind of cool that any schmuck can make their dream come true. I’ve definitely put out a bunch of music that I don’t market, just because I always wanted to do it. Anyone with an idea and a laptop can code up a game. The ridiculous amount of shovelware aside, I think that’s pretty cool.

I just wish there was a better way to sift through the dreck to find the good stuff.

Never attribute to malice what can be explained by plain old dumbfuckery. These podunk inbreds may do it for kicks (some of them are definitely malicious enough), but I think it’s pretty likely that they got someone named Cooter to do the final installation.

This information is brought to you by a drunk that looks like he could be named Cooter. Or possibly Cletus.

I will be the first to tell you that nothing I’ve ever put out could be considered useful or beneficial. Generally it’s just vaguely funny but also kind of sad. At its best it’s entertaining on the right combination of drugs.

That was my exact thought. Discount sound production gear is my jam but damn, anything I created with it would be forever stained.

Leela: We’ve petitioned the governor. But he doesn’t want to appear soft on people who’ve been falsely imprisoned.

I spent some time up there and I was surprised to find very similar sentiments to what I see here in Texas. Yee haw, fuck the law.

She’s got a golden ticket, she gave a golden shower to his face.

If the government shuts down right before the election it would be a bloodbath for Republicans. I’m sure turtle head took Johnson aside for a little come to Jesus meeting about how the world really works. They already tried a bullshit hail Mary that didn’t work.

So they kick it out to December so that the House can theoretically create a clean budget for the next administration.

Hold my Rufus, I’m going in.

There are some pretty awesome things as well, but none of them are related to healthcare or my abscessed tooth.

I can’t speak to animal food, but I know plenty of folks that are too poor for insurance so when they get an infection they take fish amoxicillin. It’s dirt cheap and you don’t need a prescription.

I don’t recommend it because it contributes to the issue with antibiotic resistant bacteria and I believe most people won’t take it right, but I’ve been that poor with an abscessed tooth. So I took it for a week to kill the infection and saved up to have that tooth yanked. Sometimes you’ve gotta do what you’ve gotta do to survive.

Well I know what I’m doing Saturday night now…
