  • Anyone can cosplay as an ICE agent; all you've gotta do is remove your license plate and wear a facemask+hat.

  • Not sure if just 'haha tech-rhyme, using common error message' or deeper:

    Connection reset by peer = Other party ended the conversation. Immediately after you'd stated you're queer...

  • Only when halved along a line of symmetry.

    A body cut in half at the waist, leaves you with two very different halves despite being the same length/height.

    Cut in half along the spine though and you could have two equal, yet mirrored, halves.

    With a long neck like a giraffe, half way down the length between the head+tail, one of those 'halves' is going to be much heavier/bulkier.

  • They don't use the same words I use, burn them at the stake!!

    /s

  • What are the beavers releasing and why do they need licenses?

  • A lot of the hate comes from Microsoft forcing it down everyones throats.

    If it had been left to user choice, they may actually have a decent userbase; but instead it's been forcefully installed on pretty much every windows computer regardless of the owners preferences, it repeatedly re-asserts itself as the default browser, some windows features are hard-coded to use it and break if its removed, there is no simple uninstall process, and windows update will re-install it if you manually remove it.

    It's my damn computer; if I don't want a piece of software, I should be able to remove it.

    Ditched Windows entirely 2 years ago partly because of that, partly because of the same upcoming behaviour with AI. Fuck Microshaft, I'll take my money and attention elsewhere. (I was previously paying for/using pro licenses, for features like RDP hosting)

    Never have a permission issue again! Lmao

  • Participated in democracy? Devoured by vampires, lmao

  • But if you're born in the USA, you didn't agree to any ToS it was forced upon you at birth. Never chose to accept/agree to them, but obligated to follow them or face punishment.

    A contract signed under duress is invalid.

  • -having no personal insight/knowledge of japan's drug scene, just my impressions-

    Saying you've found none in six years, doesn't make me think there's none comming through; I immediately think you haven't been looking very hard.

    Finding very little I could understand, but NONE? Na, you need to try harder.

  • An $11/yr domain pointed at my IP. Port 443 is open to nginx, which proxies to the desired service depending on subdomain. (and explicitly drops any connection that uses my raw ip or an unrecognized name to connect, without responding at all)

    ACME.sh automatically refreshes my free ssl certificate every ~2months via DNS-01 verification and letsencrypt.

    And finally, I've got a dynamic IP, so DDClient keeps my domain pointed at the correct IP when/if it changes.


    There's also pihole on the local network, replacing the WAN IP from external DNS, with the servers local IP, for LAN devices to use. But that's very much optional, especially if your router performs NAT Hairpinning.

    This setup covers all ~24 of the services/web applications I host, though most other services have some additional configuration to make them only accessible from LAN/VPN despite using the same ports and nginx service. I can go into that if there's interest.

    Only Emby/Jellyfin, Ombi, and Filebrowser are made accessible from WAN; so I can easily share those with friends/family without having to guide them through/restrict them to a vpn connection.

  • You can use cloudflares DNS and not use their WAF (the proxy bit) just fine. I have been for almost a decade.

  • Idk how you're getting your jack dirty.

    Dusty warehouse environment. Even with my phone staying in my pocket most of the time; it collects dust in the ports and has to be cleaned regularly. I'm glad I only have one port to clean now.

    Also, if the earbuds aren't in-ears, aren't they just clip-ons or headphones?

    Sure, but nobody said you can only use wireless buds. If you don't like in-ear style headphones/buds try a different style.

    These used to by my wired earbuds of choice; I swapped the replaceable cable with a usb c one. There's also a bluetooth cable/adapter you can buy.

    I haven't actually used them much though because I primarily switched to some wireless Raycons 2-3 ago years now. They've been fantastic and I've gotten so used to being untethered from my phone that I don't think I'd ever go back.

    8-10 hrs of runtime and only about 20min to charge; More often than not, I'm only wearing one anyway, so one charges while the other plays audio. Swap as necessary or listen to both and take an occasional break (which is good for you anyway). They charge in the case whenever not being used, and the case wirelessly charges whenever its on my bedside table, or from usb c if you ever needed it. I've yet to kill all three batteries, even with continuous use all day long.

  • All 'Aux' stands for is auxiliary, which could technically mean a lot of different things depending on context; but we're talking about phones, so it's pretty commonly known to mean the auxiliary audio/headphone port. Ie; the 3.5mm TRS/TRRS socket used for audio output/input.

  • What makes it a bad cable?

    This is the only audio cable I've needed/wanted for a phone in around 5 years. (note, the picture is just an example of the style, not the exact brand I happened to purchase)

    For years I refused to even try wireless headphones/earbuds because I was stuck on hurdles like battery life, Bluetooth reliability/range, or the possibility of losing one; but once I actually gave some a try, particularly a good quality set, I honestly couldn't be happier and have come to prefer them over wired headphones quite significantly (specifically for mobile devices). It was genuinely a mental hurdle more than anything. Once I got off my high horse, stopped hating wireless headphones mostly on principle, and realized they actually fit my needs perfectly; I've found the only place I want/need both aux and power connections is at a non-bluetooth stereo.

    So now, when I want to charge while playing music at a stereo; this cable is perfect, providing power to the phone and audio to the stereo without some bulky dongle hanging off of your usb c port wearing it out. Since switching to wireless headphones, and buying one of these cables, I have had no desire for anything else.

  • This particular cable is more intended for connecting to a stereo + charger, so those would be close together.

    I'm mainly using it with one of these stereos, but it would be good in a car too:

    If you want to connect headphones+charge, the dongle style adapters may be a better fit:

    Though you could use a usb or aux extension on either of the shorter ends of the first cable I showed if you wanted too.

  • Yup, that's what it's for.

  • Yeah, I'll take a rip; you next?

  • For months, masked individuals with no police agency markings have been leaping out of unmarked vehicles that have no licence plates, refusing to identify themselves in any way, then kidnapping people off of the streets; and not one of them has faced any true resistance.

    What the fucked has happened to America. Is "hey don't do that", really all you've got???
