It’s your problem when they can’t make payroll because of it. And it’s your problem when they ultimately blame you for not having the solution ready to implement.

The first has happened to me once.

The second more times than I can count.

I absolutely cannot stand this kind of logic.

“We make a shit ton of money on this very critical piece of software!”

“Then let me fix it!”

“NO! It’s making us money NOW! It only stops making us money when it’s broken. At which point then we fix it.”

“But that might be hours. We can minimize downtime if we plan properly.”

"But it’s making us money NOW!1!1!”

I shit you not I have had various versions of this conversation throughout my career, across industries, across disciplines.

I love OurGroceries!!! It’s so handy. ngl…the app would be worth an annual subscription and makes me wonder how they keep their app running with just a one-time payment.

That’s my method as well. That and a folder to hold all the receipts. When I sell the car, I print out the spreadsheet and then trash the receipts.

Maybe It’s Some Sort Of Sovereign Citizen Thing?

Jesus fucking Christ man. At least spoiler this. This image just made me furiously masturbate.

I want this to star Alison Brie and Gillian Jacobs as the two lesbians. With Joel McHale being the brother.

Dani Pudi as the other bisexual’s awkward best friend.

Donald Glover as one of the best men.

The script practically writes itself.

Don’t cars have carborators? Are carborators edible?

I don’t know anything about cars except they go vroom. I know even less about chemistry.

MIT is obviously is trying to trick us into removing our protection!

If ad domains can be resolved to their IPv6 addresses, it means that they are not blocked. Your device connects to the IPv6 address and serves the ad.

I can’t remember what the problem was but my window to rollback was closing so I reverted back to IPv4 only and pushed it to another day.

Not in the US. The number of people who trust PayPal absolutely amazes me.

PayPal is not a bank. Regardless of what they write on their site, they aren’t regulated as a bank or insured as a bank.

They have the legal authority to close your account and take your money for any reason. There are countless horror stories of people trying to get PayPal to release their funds only to find out they have no legal recourse.

I stopped reading after “subscription-based”.

I’ve known good criminals and bad cops. Bad priests. Honorable thieves. You can be on one side of the law or the other. But if you make a deal with somebody, you keep your word.

Cyber criminals want to make more money like anyone else. So if they get a reputation of going back on their word, they aren’t going to get their next payday.

What paying the ransom does is empower their next data exfil and let other hackers know you’re willing to deal.

I’m not saying there aren’t bad actors out there.

Fuck Ticketmaster.

Revert the code and claim credit for it again. 😜

Did you know that nine women can deliver one baby in just one month?

OP: not only was this a great solve, you wrote this very well.

If you haven’t already, I’d do a RCA for your company and send it to your manager and manager’s manager.

And keep a copy for yourself.

There aren’t many engineers that can code and write well.

They obviously look at child porn. If they had nothing to hide, they would volunteer!

I say it’s time to investigate each politicians phones and computers and then install monitoring software.

For the children.

I squeezed almost 25 years, the majority of my adult life, out of my old Dell desktop. It was my first 64-bit processor. It ran Fedora for a few years, then Ubuntu, then Windows 10 during the pandemic so that I could game, then back to Ubuntu before the SSD finally called it quits.

It saw one RAM upgrade, three HDD replacements/upgrades, and the SSD addition.

It was showing its age right up until the end.

It’s life is not over. I’m going to format the HDDs and make it a NAS until the drives or the board taps out.

The fact that I’ve recycled an Apple laptop, several HP laptops in the same span as my desktop is a true testament to their longevity.

This seems counter to Concept 6 in the OP.

for residential internet, the globally routable prefix can change

Do you mean that ISPs don’t regularly rotate your PD in practice? I’d actually prefer that they did to maintain a semblance of privacy.

An issue I had the last time I tried to set up IPv6 up was pihole didn’t work as well as I would have preferred. I assumed I just didn’t set up things correctly and it’s looking like that is the case based on the OP.

It kept resolving ad domains with their IPv6 address.
