Gamespy back in the day. Could make core friends and join the same servers across games.

Absolutely. I always found it satisfying to route wires and avoid the rat's nest.

Adders are the foundation of electronics. Are you going to continue on this project or start a new one? 7-segment display?

Nice wiring. Great job!

Very superior design. I can now go back to using muscle memory and know what is going to happen without having to navigate a series of menus.

Just to clarify, Puerto Ricans are US Citizens and can vote for President if they are residents of any of the 50 States. It's only Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico (or other citizens living there) who cannot vote for President because the Constitution only grants this right to US States not federal territories.

2021 Census data captured 5.8 million Puerto Ricans living in a Presidential voting area but only time will tell if this made an impact.

It's not too difficult to establish a Signal account from a burner number from a prepaid sim card. I currently have a Signal account tied to a sim not in my name. Getting a burner with cash is an option. Or, if you're lucky enough to live near a payphone and can gain access to the number, you can activate a signal with a phone call.

He's crouched with his legs between his arms. He's holding the scissors in his hand which is next to his foot.

I think the intent is baby steps for those who aren't already privacy invested. Getting parents or tech illiterate to switch to Signal is a win. They weren't hiding their number anyway.

So easy to setup my tech illiterate parents could do it.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm looking like 73% compatibility with the deck, so I'd assume slightly higher for the computer. I mostly play single player anyways so I'm probably overall looking good.

Thank you for this inspiration. I've also been things about a switch to Mint but the only thing holding me back is my Steam library. I'm going to dig into it a little more and look at the compatibility of my games. It's encouraging to hear others making the leap.

Sorry to hear Tom isn't making videos anymore. Anyone know about an archive of his videos available for downloading for later viewing and archiving?

 

I should have known if the apps free, you're the product. Duolingo appears to harvest the most data compared to other language learning apps.

Long Resting (self.baldurs_gate_3)
 

I've never played D&D and I'm getting into BG3. I must be marathoning my characters cause I'm usually out of spells when I run into fights. My useful exploration spells also cost spell slots so I'm usually proceeding with cantrips for my adventures until I decide I really need to recharge.

How often is everyone else going through a long rest? I know there's a trade off of consuming camp supplies and so maybe I'm just the guy who saves all the items for end game and never ends up using them.

Researchers analyzed 190 million hacking events on a honeynet and categorized the types of hackers into Dungeons and Dragons classses.

Rangers evaluate the system and set conditions for a follow-on attack.

Thieves install cryptominers and other profiteering software.

Barbarians attempt to brute force their way into adjacent systems.

Wizards connect the newly compromised system to a previous to establish 'portals' to tunnel through to obscure their identity.

Bards have no apparent hacking skill and likely purchase or otherwise acquire access. They perform basic computer tasks.
