Microsoft really wants Local accounts gone after it erases its guide on how to create them
  • On new install without logging in a Microsoft account?

  • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?
  • Not in my experience. Unless maybe if it causes loss of funds or other security issues, which usually get a fair response.

  • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?
  • Are you saying the chemical plant provides the treatment or that one plant is somehow responsible for polluting 75% of American drinking water?

  • What industry secret are you aware of that most people aren't?
  • I think it's equally true for product companies. Do you know how hard it is to get a company to prioritize bug fixing over feature work? Shy of a user revolt, or a friend of the CEO reporting an issue, bugs are almost always second priority or lower.

  • The United States will need 7 million migrants to cover old age support programs for baby boomers
  • You're hearing what you want to hear. "Growth" is not financial growth. It's not wages, I thought that was made clear in the end sentence. Growth is like personal growth or professional growth. Learning things. Becoming more. No stagnating.

    But hey, if you're happy in a "dead end" job more power to you. I wasn't necessarily arguing against it. I was just trying to clarify that "dead end" does not refer (solely) to wages.

  • The United States will need 7 million migrants to cover old age support programs for baby boomers
  • A job can be well paid and still be considered "dead end". Just means there's no room for advancement or growth. Has nothing to do with capitalism or wages, really.

  • What could this be? on top of a street light post
  • Can't find an exact one, but here's an interesting example of a traffic detector:

    And in the road there would be a buried paired receiver. And it would detect if a vehicle blocked the signal between the two.

  • What could this be? on top of a street light post
  • Context would help. General location (state, country, etc)? What kind of road? Were you near any other car infrastructure? Are the directionals pointing at anything informative?

    I suspect the box facing down is some kind of short range antenna. Like for reading toll passes kind of thing, though I doubt this is that. The directionals first reminded me of like IR sensors for like emergency vehicle signalling, but you'd normally see that on a traffic light.

  • Is there a website where I can upload stuff for free and the files stay there forever?
  • nah, nodes still need to pin the file for it to be permanent.

  • Air pollution linked to nearly 2,000 child deaths a day: report
  • Article is vague about it, but what are the causes of death? I assume there's a bunch. Though I wouldn't expect children to get lung cancer, for instance.

  • Outside Playtime
  • Oh god there's sound

  • Hmmm
  • This is the dog's house.

  • What is an underrated/forgotten video game that you think deserved a second chance?
  • Woah, I didn't even know about this one.

    VIVERSE Joins the Fediverse: Cross-Platform Connection Made Possible

    Looks like it's so far just surface-level integration with Mastodon friends/DMs. But it's still nice seeing the fediverse embraced and integrated at all by what was once a walled garden.

    What's a good security mailing list for the general GNU/Linux/etc ecosystem?

    Now that RedHat shut down their security mailing list, are there any good alternatives? It's super useful seeing the various exploits and patches to be able to be alerted to anything relevant you should take care of immediately.

    If you have any recommendations for adjacent security topics (outside of Linux), those are welcome too.

    'A SEPTA trolley just went through my living room': Crash leaves historic Philly building damaged
    www.nbcphiladelphia.com 'A SEPTA trolley just went through my living room': Crash leaves historic Philly building damaged

    The wreck was caught on camera as the slow-rolling trolley going off the tracks, into an SUV and into the stone façade of the old Blue Bell Inn (sometimes referred to as a tavern) that has sat on the corner since 1766.
