Context for the masses…

”Strabismus (crossed eyes) is a common eye condition among children. It is when the eyes are not lined up properly and they point in different directions (misaligned). One eye may look straight ahead while the other eye turns in, out, up, or down."

The search term to find it is autologon, but as everyone has mentioned, this is a last resort and JF should just be run as a service.

You really need to get your backups in order.

courts of law.

There are always courts of law! Just somtimes it’s the king in his court making up the law…

Long live the Blackspire Guard

not exactly shocking, not the first time Trump has made tariffs. Last time they drove the cost of house construction up.

kbin obviously!

Imagine being nostalgic for this… That’s scary AF

Because we did such a good job of that in his last presidency and he wasn’t a god king yet. /s

fair :)

What do you think they’ll do? I

I have no idea what you’re saying here, like which they? Why is there court involved? They will eventually push out democrats and there may be blood.

You don’t need to be faster than the bear, you just need to be faster than the other slowest campers.

Health care and small ticket entertainment industries are more recession-proof than new car sales and home sales.

Stay away from big public corporations that are going to fire a bunch of people as soon as the stocks dip a few percent.

Make sure your boss knows about the family you’re supporting, but in a friendly, proud way If you have kids make sure their pictures are on your desk

If you’re in some field where there’s new and different technology around it’s not a bad thing to brush up continue education , Even if it’s just something as simple as watching YouTube videos and talking with your boss about it, especially if it’s something they mention that they have an interest in.

I know being a bootlicker is terribly out of fashion, but, within reason, try to make yourself the most useful cog you can be. Don’t kill yourself bending over, don’t just let them take a wild advantage of you, But try to make sure that in your boss’s mind that there are people the team who are more replaceable than you are.

With any luck we won’t have to endure a pandemic at the same time

None of this in the end may help, it’s merely suggestions to help you position yourself.

They did make a solid attempt at making coups legal.

There’s simply no way, the Democrats are going to look at the voting results and go this is what was legitimately voted for let it happen.

Minimum open services is indeed best practice but be careful about making statements that the attack surface is relegated to open inbound ports.

Even Enterprise gear gets hit every now and then with a vulnerability that’s able to bypass closed port blocking from the outside. Cisco had some nasty ones where you could DDOS a firewall to the point the rules engine would let things through. It’s rare but things like that do happen.

You can also have vulnerabilities with clients/services inside your network. Somebody gets someone in your family to click on something or someone slips a mickey inside one of your container updates, all of a sudden you have a rat on the inside. Hell even baby monitors are a liability these days.

I wish all the home hardware was better at zero trust. Keeping crap in isolation networks and setting up firewalls between your garden and your clients can either be prudent or overkill depending on your situation. Personally I think it’s best for stuff that touches the web to only be allowed a minimum amount of network access to internal devices. Keep that Plex server isolated from your document store if you can.

Well, he probably could initiate anything he wanted on the grounds that they said that any official act is immune. He could probably get away with quite a bit before they managed to get together and stop him saying it wasn’t an official act.

Every federal judge and probably the supreme Court for the rest of our lives is going to be wholly owned by the dictatorship. Checks and balances are essentially broken at this point in the president can do whatever he wants with impunity. What about to hit a massive recession. What smart thing do you think were going to do about it?

If by not linked you mean wholly owned by…

The Mozilla Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Mozilla Foundation, works with the community to develop software that advances Mozilla’s principles. This includes the Firefox browser, which is well recognized as a market leader in security, privacy and language localization. These features make the Internet safer and more accessible.

I suspect their financial position has changed. Perhaps Google’s being found as a monopoly has made them decide not to help fund Mozilla’s efforts as substantially.

Ashley Boyd lead the advocacy team, here’s the kind of stuff they were doing:

In fall of 2016, Mozilla fought for common-sense copyright reform in the EU, creating public education media that engaged over one million citizens and sending hundreds of rebellious selfies to EU Parliament. Earlier in 2016, Mozilla launched a public education campaign around encryption and emerged as a staunch ally of Apple in the company’s clash with the FBI. Mozilla has also fought for mass surveillance reform, net neutrality and data retention reform.

“The Mozilla Foundation is reorganizing teams to increase agility and impact as we accelerate our work to ensure a more open and equitable technical future for us all. That unfortunately means ending some of the work we have historically pursued and eliminating associated roles to bring more focus going forward,” read the statement shared with TechCrunch.

Reading between the lines, I’d keep an eye on them collecting your data and consider one of the privacy-focused forks.

Probably preferential licensing. Black Mirror is still an active development with them.

Yeah, a company got toasted because one of their admins was running Plex and had tautulli installed and opened to the outside figuring it was read-only and safe.

Zero day bug in tat exposed his Plex token. They then used another vulnerability in Plex to remote code execute. He was self-hosting a GitHub copy of all the company’s code.
