I love that one too! Though my fave is Avianos. I’d love to see a UFO 50 more where they do some follow ups of some of these. Or open up modding or something.

My thought is that these people think that their smarter than everyone else therefore they are justified doing anything they do. On the other hand, anyone with a billion dollars got it by making a whole lot of other people poorer. And they ate neither actually geniuses nor benevolent in any other way.

The Phillip Morris CEO makes money by hooking people onto something that isn’t good for them. Tech CEOs are very seldom any different. Anyone who says otherwise usually has a financial interest in making you believe them.

In the song the Sk8r boy is the hero who triumphs in the end so i think it makes sense.

You’re absolutely right. Everyone will be very worried and talk about the importance of security in the enterprise and yada yada yada until a cool new AI spreadsheet software comes out and everybody forgets to even check if their firewall is turned on.

But with that being said, if you have been looking for a good time to ask for cybersecuity funding at your org, see if you can’t lock down 5 years worth of budget while everyone is aware of the risk to their businesses.

I see no flaws in this plan.

There’s a toggle but we moved it deep into a sub menu

If you toggle it off it also breaks a lot of other things you want to have

Toggle it off if you want but it’s still going to run in the background

Until the EU sues and forces them to have an option to actually remove it.

I didn’t realize it was that recent of an addition to the NEC. Weve only lived in super old houses where everything was always needing completely redone. I was usually replacing 2 conductor and cloth-jacketed stuff everywhere.

That was around 2012 and I remember the electrician we hired at the time mentioned it being a thing so that makes sense.

Current national electrical code in the US (since the 1980s) is a neutral in every switch box. Before then a switch loop was allowed so you see a lot of older construction with those.

You also see newer construction with those where Uncle Dave™ decided it was easier to only have to run a wire down from the light rather than fish it up through the crawlspace, NEC be damned.

The real issue with QWACS is the idea that the EU government requires them to be added to web browsers running in the EU. It’s bad enough that France and Germany can issue those certificates but imagine Erdogan’s government pushing them out.

It’s not like any politician knows how the Internet works and that someone who knows better couldn’t rip those certificates out, but the tyranny of the default means that governments will have more control over EU citizens browsing. That’s not something likely to benefit anyone.

Let them fight.
