I have literally no extra money to save. Everything I have is maxed out or near maxed out.

my retirement plan is an overdose.

I have exactly one IRL friend that cares about my technology stuff, but he lives far away and we don't see each other in person too often. My ex tolerates me talking about it a little bit before he tells me to shut up, but that's it. It kind of sucks. I've just re-internalized to that nothing I do really matters, and therefore neither do I.

it's so sad this multi-trillion dollar company can't spare some resources to serve a some 301s.

I've been trialling application allowlisting, but wow is it ever frustrating. So much stuff isn't signed, and when it is the accompanying DLLs aren't. or the signature is invalid. or some of Windows' own executables/dlls aren't signed (why?? you make applocker??) or the installer is, but none of the actual resultant end files

Is it just me?

there's also https://news.ycombinator.com/pool, though I'm not sure what the difference

the (former) employee keeps them (i imagine for a myriad of reasons like hygiene and various overheads it would take to track such)

things like tools (wrenches, drills, bits, etc) are separately supplied by the company per department/work area (sort of like hot desking in the office world) and stay with the company at all times

in some cases they do! a friend worked for a labour intensive job (X days on, Y days off) and they have a yearly use-it-or-lose-it allowance that he was allowed to claim expenses against for things like boots, jackets, safety gear, etc

unsure how it's reported back now, but I believe (it's been a while since i've dug in there) it's also exposed as a metric for Google Workspace administrators to monitor client perf during said calls as well

(but yeah it would just be easier to yoink it)

ehPReth — Thu, 04 Jul 2024 19:19:59 +0000

is this just like

anotherservicetwilioruined.example.com/api/doesthispersonhaveanaccount?phone=+12012000000

and then the service says 'yeah that number has an account' (and nothing else?)? then whomever repeats that for every possible phone number?

or... more than that?

is there a way to give a 'tailscale IP address' to dumber devices on your network? effectively serving 'tailnet addresses' via DHCP? say to a printer, other lower powered devices, etc. could have sworn i saw an article about this at some point but can't find it
