For Surrey-Green Timbers, the threshold for success is 11,811 signatures.

Can their be a petition for cancelling the signatures of the nutters?

willybe,

Perhaps, we need to throw the shareholders in jail.

There is nothing that will be done to prevent this from happening again.

willybe,

Geez really? I had no idea that pedestrians were so careless, what is it about larger trucks that makes people jump out in front of them.

I like to see things as an opportunity, and I think we can use this as a lesson to do things differently. Like, let’s make trucks louder so you hear them before you see them. More Turbo, and how about vertical tail pipe stack. Next we can increase the number of lights, and make them brighter so that everyone can see. Let’s add more cameras and computers so the driver can see their blind spots simply by looking at the command console screen. We can even make these features available for free for a small amount of non invasive advertising.

Do you remember how trains solved the problems of cows derailing trains. They put a guard on the front. So let’s make an even bigger steel bumper.

Yes that’s the right way to block root login. An added filter you can use the ‘match’ config expression to filter logins even further.

If you’re on the open network, your connection will be heavily hit with login attempts. That is normal. But using another service like Fail2Ban will stop repeated hits to your host.

Ssh listens on port 22, as soon as a connection is made the host moves the connection to another port to free up 22 for other new connections.Btw: I wasn’t thinking clearly here. Out going connections won’t be using port 22, but the listening incoming port is always 22.

willybe,

Match blocks allow you to restrict who/what is allowed or not allowed to connect to the server. There is a large number of options to utilize. Put this near the bottom of sshd_config. There should be an example there.

Here are some more examples: stackoverflow.com/…/sshd-with-multiple-match-sect…

willybe,

This is the way.

AKA don’t be this guy.

Don’t trust executables on your computer. A Windows VM in a Linux host that you revert to a prior snapshot of you’re really curious.

willybe,

Wix.com Ltd. (Hebrew: וויקס.קום, romanized: wix.com) is an Israeli software company,

The conflict aside, WIX is a corporation with strong political and theological roots. Even if the technology is good, choosing that platform comes with baggage.

willybe,

Now DULF gets their day in court. That’s good news. These laws are harming and killing Canadians who are seeking to ease their pain. DULF was non profit, and they proved that safe drug supply works. They are doing the hard work for us. Get your pocket books ready, we’re going to court.

According to DULF’s data, no one who is part of their program has overdosed using the drugs they’ve provided.

They also have claimed DULF has stopped $100,000 from going to gangs in BC by providing the drugs themselves.

DULF has worked with a variety of other organizations as well, and is a contractor with Vancouver Coastal Health providing overdose prevention training, harm reduction help, and drug checking. At the direction of the Minister of Mental Health and Addictions, Jennifer Whiteside, that $200,000 per year contract is ending Oct. 31.

How Ubuntu Linux snuck into high-end Dell laptops (and why it's called 'Project Sputnik') (www.zdnet.com)

Today, the Dell XPS-13 with Ubuntu Linux is easily the most well-known Linux laptop. Many users, especially developers – including Linus Torvalds – love it. As Torvalds recently said, “Normally, I wouldn’t name names, but I’m making an exception for the XPS 13 just because I liked it so much that I also ended up buying...

willybe,

The XPS line was popular at work. Desk candy to compete with Mac books. However the engineering did not complete at all. The battery was the biggest fail point, we had a high percentage of battery issues under warranty, and they would take months to get replaced by the vendor.

We stopped buying them, if someone wants desk candy these days it’s mostly Mac book pro as expensive as your budget can handle.

willybe,

Uhm? No.

Russia and China-backed hackers are exploiting WinRAR zero-day bug techcrunch.com/…/russia-sandworm-fancy-bear-china…

This is a redundant position, of course mega mergers are bad, he loses no support by holding this position. It is his job to be opposition.

The proper position to introduce law to change corporate taxation for monopolies.

willybe,

I was getting more Ringo Starr vibes.

willybe,

This article seems to be pushing the conservative narrative. They make a leap from mental health to eugenics, which is a stretch. I call BS

Denying the people the right to die with dignity is a sick perversion of morals.

willybe,

Several things come to mind:

  • by giving your password to someone, you are essentially consenting to them accessing your data
  • your data should be backed up before you bring a device in so it can be wiped off if they need to access the OS
  • certified technologists exist and they have to adhere to a code of conduct
  • best buy and the ilk do not hire technologists… you get what you pay for
  • if a technician is paid to back up your data, then they need access to your data, if they find porn and if it’s bad, they will report you

reduces my loyalty to the platform

Uh? Wow! Way to show them bastards. ;)

willybe,

I can completely respect your perspective. Yes I was being short when I made this comment, no offense to the op was intended.

To patronize a service because its good does not imply loyalty.

Apple has a long history of being manipulative and exploitative of their customers. Being loyal to them (from my perspective) is like being loyal to an abusive person. You obey their commands not because of respect, but because you feel an emotional bond to them.

willybe,

It said it believed that any taxes owed after the audit would be reduced by up to $10bn based on tax laws passed by former President Donald Trump.

Joe did this

willybe,

Whoosh

willybe,

Here is the poll report:

leger360.com/…/sexual-orientation-and-gender-iden…

Rather than blaming the ignorant about these issues. I think this report shows we need to do more work too support schools and raise the level of education on these important, and life saving curriculums and services.

willybe,

The internet is forever… archive.ph/kmhqs

willybe,

Also, I’m not sure if IA’s purpose is to get a around a pay wall. That might be considered violating copywrite.

willybe,

Currently, 3kg (6.6lb) [of carrots cost] 15 riyals ($4.12). We can sell 3kg [of 3D-printed carrots] for 10 riyals ($2.75), only for carrots

Because, (Waves hands) 3d printed carrots. Molds are to costly, and take to much time to use.

Like the old timey chicken nuggets with brown meat.

willybe,

Pro tip, tell them you want to end your subscription immediately. Don’t say anything, awkward silence. When they ask an another question to goud you into staying repeat the first statement. If they ask rando questions, silence.

They give up in under a minute. Be polite but obstinate.

willybe,

After the install. Create admin and user accounts not tied to ms. Use the user account normally, and when you need admin you enter the second account details.

Use Sophia script to clean up all the advert apps bundled with win11.

I wish I could find a script to remove the advert features from edge for when I have to office. Mozilla Firefox is your day to day browser.

Use chocolatey.org to install ur apps. When you do updates, one command can do it all.

Check start-up scripts, and ensure there is nothing that doesn’t need to be there. Teams no, zoom also no.

willybe,

This seems similar to an ssh session, but ssh has great authentication and authorization parameters that can be setup. Whereas code.exe is left open.

So why is this getting down voted. Seems like a valid concern.

willybe,

Nice move there AI. I see what you’re doing.

willybe,

The protest in Nanaimo today saw a larger attendance by the Pro-SOGI side. We had better flags and banners. We took the high ground with our numbers.

willybe,

Interesting article. I don’t know anything about Sikhs or the the politics and history behind Kalistan.

But trying to relate, I’m thinking of Albertans in Mexico rallying for Wexit, and I giggle to myself.

willybe,

Yeah, I can understand how a group like the Sikh population in India, or the Quebecois in Quebec would like to be away from a government telling them how to do things.

I also agree, in Canada at least, that we are better together. Learning to live with our differences will make us stronger.

willybe,

Fortunately, our parliamentary system of government gives the citizens more power over our elected officials.

We have had government’s be forced over to the opposition bench because a majority of house seats joined together to form a government.

We’ve also had recalls that have worked. So yes I agree the CPC represents a zany reality of govt. I don’t think they would be able to pull off the same hijinks.

willybe,

Wow, amazing transition. I had to read the article to find the pictures are the before and after of the same person.

willybe,

Freeland: Too little, too late ¯_(ツ)_/¯

willybe,

The US vs them sentiment shouldn’t exist when it comes to science. Rather, congratulate them and produce a better machine.

China has just as many paradoxes as the US, the good be the bad mentality only fosters the air of war.

willybe,

The central feature of Poilievre’s plan is a policy that ties federal funding to housing starts.

Which creates more bureaucracy on to of an already bureaucratic system. Genius

Forcing cities to levels of growth whether they have infrastructure or not. If they don’t have the ability to meet that number they will be penalized seeing cities further back causing more problems.

As if we don’t already have enough problems.

willybe, (edited )

Thank-you for bringing that up. I laughed when I saw it. I’m surprised he isn’t wearing a harness, hi vis, and a hard hat.

If you watch the video, you can see the platform in the executive parking lot lifts him up to use the Shaw workyard as a background. This way he doesn’t have to get his shoes dirty.

What a putz

willybe,

Or on this case add a policy to penalize those who don’t measure up to your imaginary stick.

willybe,

Here is more info about the bundle of you are wondering what this is youtube.com/watch?v=_oDlCPFB6u4&si=32pCAJlXmk…

willybe,

Hackers, if you can hear me, hack the smart TVs to block Fox and Sinclair

willybe,

So there is still time to get in at the ground floor.

Typical G&M flame bait. Blaming immigrants and JT for the immigration policies. Let’s toss in the health care problems too. Why are the liberals doing this to us? Crocodile tears

No mention of speculative investment in housing, greedy landlords jacking up rents, corpo land holdings, foreign land holders, claw backs on infrastructure grants, complicated building laws, red tape and all that.

This tripe from the Postmedia network is more distraction from the real news.

November 2019, Postmedia announced[25] that 66% of its shares were now owned by Chatham Asset Management, an American media conglomerate which owns American Media, Inc., and is known for its close ties to the Republican party.[26] en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postmedia_Network

Update: Whoops. Here I’m talking shit about G&M and they are not owned by Postmedia. I’m not a fan, but I did misrepresent the paper, and this article. I suppose that I’m so used to conservative shit, that I might scan articles leaning to the right. I’ll do better.

willybe,

Okay, you got me. The G&M, the conservative shill piece that it is, put out an article that leads the reader in a couple of circles to come around and ponders this thought…

What can be said about population growth is that it makes the costs of bad policy more apparent. If it means we are now beginning, at long last, to have a serious conversation about the barriers to investment and housing construction that have bedevilled this country for decades, then hallelujah for all those extra people, and let’s have lots more.

As you pointed out the article isn’t blaming increased immigration. But it also isn’t pointing fingers at property for profit. Instead the problem eludes to barriers to investment and housing construction.

willybe,

Whoops! OMG, that’s embarrassing. Thanks for the heads up

willybe,

Pikachu shocked face. Godot keeps getting better.

willybe,

I was sick, so I could tolerate the presentation which had high-end effects.

A UAV flys through the desert over the Apple building into the center garden, it approaches Tim Cook standing on à lawn. He starts speaking in his mechanical ceo way. A lot more effects like this.

The watch

  • new processor with cores dedicated to ml. Monitoring your bio markers for finger traps and other gestures. It also processes voice commands so you don’t need to be tethered to the internet to figure out what your saying.
  • a fear based marketing, the presentation opens with shiny people who have been assisted by the watches bio monitoring. Heart attack, hypothermia, car accident, etc. Apple watch is always watching you.
  • 18 hrs battery life, so you have to remove it to charge it everyday. So while your sleeping? But put it back on before you wake up so you can snooze by tapping your fingers together. Also if you’re likely to have a heart attack at night, wear the watch so it can wake you up.
  • satellite emergency SOS, and road side assist. USA only
  • carbon neutral. Recycled metals,…
  • features you will use everyday (repeat 15x)
  • pro version

The phone

  • recycled metal, carbon neutral, cute scene presenting Apples eco foot print to mother nature played by Octavia Spencer
  • cameras
  • something something USB3, no mention of external displays or using with dock to use as computer
  • easily replaceable back glass
  • a design that makes it easier to repair
  • pro version in titanium

MacBook

  • MacBook Air 15

An impressive presentation. Engineering is amazing. Still, your locked into their walled garden. And they can keep you juiced with dopamine as long as you give them money.
