So the recent episode of Good Cop/Bad Cop was no Agatha Christie murder.

Hahaha, dammit made me snort

Word can convert PDFs, then its easy to copy the data to excel and manipulate it there

Why would I?

I use a mesh vpn to manage my servers otherwise, what’s the difference?

Hell I RDP to them all the time (or SSH) - if anything it’s providing another layer of encryption.

Damn you for making me be conscious of this now.

Damn you to hell!

(Upvote granted)

I’ve re-read the docs around VirtualBox bridging, and the only thing that I think could possibly cause this (though it shouldn’t since ping is a direct address to a specific IP/mac) is to enable Promiscuous mode (as cappucino mentioned).

This shouldn’t fix it in my opinion, but it may, since ICMP could be considered undirected traffic (I don’t, but I didn’t code VirtualBox).

I’ve sometimes found using trace instead of ping can sometimes work where pings would be blocked, plus trace shows exactly where it dies along the path.

More like grasping at anything to be progressive.

It was transparent at the time, kinda cringey actually.

At least ToS focused more on the Greek morality play part, though it had cringe transparent moments too.

There’s a fine line between exploring ideas and preaching, so I tend to give them some leeway - but damn if TnG didn’t rub me the wrong way from the start with the stupid costumes.

I haven’t tested yet, but ChatGPT claims plutil will export to html too

Dammit, made me chuckle.

Fine, enjoy your compelled upvote.

Joy is the Bible, but I’d never offer it to someone as a starting point.

Yes, it does “start from the start”, but finding the start with it is overwhelming.

Today I’d recommend watching America’s Test Kitchen (especially the old stuff) and getting their cook book, as it’s a LOT more approachable, and they explain the how’s and why’s of the recipes.

Good Eats is also a good watch for learning how things work.

It’s pretty much Graphene and Lineage now.

Except that’s not what 99% of the punditorium espouses - for the last 15 years it’s been a continuous litany of “intermittent fasting is THE answer”, and anyone disagreeing is roundly condemned.

Despite 80 years of diabetes research that contradicts much of the argument for fasting.

To add, you could always capture via the output video too, regardless of the DRM nonsense. Once it leaves the device in a format a display can present it, any device that can utilize that signal can record it.

There’s always a million ways to skin the cat.

Only enough to make the average user comply.

Again, enough friction.

Fine, fine, good shower thought. Simple. Concise.

Upvote applied.

Ah, yes, resort to name calling when you’re called out on being disingenuous.

How old are you again?

But it wouldn’t be as entertaining!

The guts it took to do that. Anything could have gone wrong.

Yes, extensive testing was done, lots of planning and safety to ensure nothing went wrong. Things can still go sideways.

Must’ve been an incredible feeling too. I remember it being a big deal at the time.

I finally checked out the etymology of armor/armour.

Somehow, only British English spells it “armour”. Even the original French doesn’t spell it that way, but “armeure”.

Usually the atypical spelling is post-Webster American, due to his attempts to make spelling simpler.

In this case, no spellings match the original French/Latin.
